Default 2x Accel

Hi,

I have a suggestion, to explain better assume this scenario

You have more RRT than you can burn everyday and most of it goes to waste, and with the new Premium gold patch you dont want to downgrade to standard to lose the double gold.

I would think that there are many players out there with a similar issue,

So the solution to this?

2x Accel - i.e, 6 times the normal RRT consumed, effectively using 6 Hours RRT in 30 real world minutes.

A patch like this would be win-win for everyone

Players get to use thier RRT, and 'The Company' gets more Tc purchases as more RRT is used.

Please think about it and comment if something like this has not been already suggested.

I don't see a down side to this.

If a player wants to burn through RRT this fast (and even I would occasionally do so), why not?

i dont like it.

it would open up way to many problems with trophy drops and items and ****.

tc prices would skyrocket as more people bought this and then used it every day for everything.

A better option would be one that when enabled burns RT at six times the normal rate, but only provides five times (or perhaps only 4.5 times) the normal drop rate. That way the people who REALLY don't have enough time to play the game could use up their RT without letting it completely go to waste, while mitigating some of the rapid TC burning abuse that would result otherwise.

easy to gain XP???? new OP race???? people falling behind????
what are you talking about exactly?
you get the same XP from 15 hours of RRT if you burned it in 15, 5, or even one hour in real time!.
plus, its a double dip sales tactic. players would be extremely tempted to buy this upgrade and will be more tempted to buy TCs to use it!

The downside is you'd waste like 3 minutes just looting.

Yes Agreed that it will mean more exp in lesser time, but then again its by draining your own limited RRT.

Also since Rerollers Boon has been out, exp has been free flowing to create the so called "New Op Race", (2x Accel will obviously not be compatible with Rerollers Boon)

Honestly in terms of pure exp, 2x accel will level the playing ground with rerollers boon.

Further just to clarify, the 2x accel SHOULD NOT affect Passive skills or drop rate - to prevent massive epic farming. If the drop rate is not changed....most people who are not short of time will not use it and if its used only to gain exp, u lose more RRT per epic drop.

So there will be trade off between using the 2x accel and regular accel.

which makes it even more retarded then just a 2* accel bonus

This is getting way too close to that magical "I WIN" button.

lol @ retarted and I WIN button,

Constructive criticism is what I was hoping for,

Anyway,

My point is still the same If you cannot burn your RRT, rather than let it go to waste, it would be better to burn it even at a penalty to something (drop rate)

Secondly, if someone wants to level really quickly, to get those last bit of trophies to clear that hell level, 2x will help you get those, but just not get you closer to the epic faster.

One thing is certain that it will be a beneficial skill for everyone at some point of time, might be better for some than others, but beneficial nonetheless.

The only way something like this could be done is if it can't be used with TCs. In other words limit it to daily RT.

For someone like me who doesn't play much any more, it would mean instead of wasting 90% of my rrt I would only waste 45%. This would be nice for the casual player who just wants to play 1-2 days a week for a few hours.

I will also add that regular accel saved the game for me. I was seriously burned out on this game within the first 2-3 months. After losing electricity for a week and came back with a full bar I bought accel. I got another 2-1/2 years out of the game because of that. At this point 2X accel probably wouldn't get me to play more, but it might keep some others around and slow the dwindling nod population.

/constructive: Accel is good,it lets you burn a days free 3 hours of RRT in an hour. Any more is just ridiculous and defeats the purpose of PLAYING THE GAME! Why not just bypass all the bs and make it so you can send Glitchless a few hundred bucks and they give you an instant XP/Gold pack which all you have to do with is decide where to allocate it and say to hell with playing? /endconstructive

Too late. Power leveling already did that. Even after two patches to slow it down it's still abused like crazy.

If the trophies are made soulbound and can't be sold or traded, they won't affect the trophy market. The intent is to reduce the amount of mind-numbing farming involved in fighting the same two mobs over and over. I have a high level character that still uses standard that I haven't upgraded because it isn't worth it to me. Even after the premium plunder patch, I don't want the extra hour of RRT a day because it would be wasted. I don't burn TCs and it's hard enough to find the time to maintain the other two characters. I don't know if this suggestion is the perfect answer, but I think it would be an improvement over the current situation, as long as the trophies are soulbound.

if you have too much rested time per day on premium, go back to standard, and if you have too much then aswell, go back to unpaid status.

it is what i do on my alts. as an N, i am able to keep up with their rrt usage, (they have accel aswell) and play as much/little as i want.

yes there is a ****load of farming on this game, but its the way the game is.

ideally, you could get exp from PvP and level that way, but it would be abused way too much.

but this idea, is stupid in the entire thing.

Support. More people buying premium, people buying 2x accel, more people even buying accel, people don't have to play all day to burn RT meaning server isn't overloaded. People with no life would farm the same number of trophies with or without this, but with this they would be much much happier and maybe not quit playing the game, the way so many capped players seem to be. Sorry if I made any typos this Mac's keyboard is bad.

For slow effects, use the slow % but as a negative.

Just repeat for multiple effects.

DO NOT multiply by 1+slow% to get your new delay. 1*1.4 is not the same as 1/0.6 and your answer will be wrong.
