I buy scrolls, mounts, teleports, banners and fireworks. I have never purchased anything from a lucky box and have very nice gear and have given away a lot of nice gear. I am considering trying the platinum gem box for the first time, but it really isn't necessary.

I don't think Regnum has any imbalance between premium and not premium at all, other than that it takes forever to level if you don't scroll, and that everyone needs a horse. A plain brown horse costs about $2.50, or the price of a Starbucks latte, small size. Inevitably, there are more good items than there are high level players, so good gear gets passed around. Every player 45 and above I know has quality gear.

Finally, I don't object to premium buyers having some advantage. In Tennis, if you purchase an awesome racquet you will probably get a few more points. Marathon runners have very expensive sneaks. Same deal. Nobody mandates that Tennis players use wooden racquets from the 70s. All in all, gear is not nearly as important as battlefield awareness, the absence of which gets you killed far more often than having no const on your tunic. If your gear sucks than just look at it as a challenge to beat those with good gear, and brag when you win.

The player buys the horse gift voucher at the site and gives the receiver the redeem code to enter to get their horse. Limits can be imposed by this system. Other than the horse thing I see no other major issues with premium.

+1 for RVR lots of people seem to forget that.

side note, WTF can't I trade a horse? I mean what does NGD care, the horse was paid for -NGD made money- I gave a horse to someone who cannot buy one for what ever reason, -NGD has a happy player that will tell his friends about the game.

Seems like a no brainer to me.

ON TOPIC

Something more important the option to choose between 1H and 2H weapons and no more dual wielding excuses thats what we want thats what we pay for.

NGD should simply put system like gem box.

Platinum boxes, choose armor or weapon.

If you choose armor, choose your part. BP, Helm, Gaunts, Leggings, Pauldron.

If you choose weapon : Choose 1H or 2H if it's warrior class.

If you chosse weapon : Chosse SB or LB if you're archer class.

It will stay random because it still depends of luck if you fall on special or magical or epic nice stuff but less crappy for any players who wanna use these premium service and spending sometimes too much € or $ for finally no armor parts or no weapon they wanted.

They should put gem came from boxes tradable indeed. We don't understand why armor and weapon came from boxes are tradable and gem not => Nonsense.

Xhim cost is already too expensive (1k xhim over 1€/1$) so improve the existing service without raise the price would be something very appreciated IMO.

If NGD really needs more money, the basic xhim cost should be changed to the same cost when there is promotion period and much more attractive during promotion period (+20% on each purchase, c'mon it's not like xhim was almost given to players ... It's meaningless promotion).

Just a PoV after all.

A great source of income would be adding new and USEFULL premium items to the game.

1. A leroy jenkins warcry
2. More costumes
3. A discoball for when I'm dancing again

More serious, some of the existing premium items could use some improvement, and I'm sure that there might be new options to after we had 3 updates more.

If you want ideas for premium I resurrect this one from way back in the day:

In addition to enhancements of platinum boxes this could go a long way to helping NGD gain some extra income.

The second idea. This one needs tweaking and my thinking has changed a bit, but it is from an older thread so I link it as it was:

Enough have been suggested plz read the suggestions topic once in a while..

Quincebo 01-19-2011 02:46 PM

We have asked NGD for an long time to change the platinum boxes.
I don't think they would change it, although it would be much better if you can ask for an 2-handed weapon or an helmet, if you need it
