GIM Flex

 

Reading through the feedback, there's more common ground here than it looks.

 

Dragon metal sheets: colordeus, GIM Flex, and I all agree these should be available somewhere. At 150 vote points the cost works out to roughly 24m per sheet, which is about where the TP price sits, so it's not undercutting the market. The precedent is there: cannonballs and burnt pages already live in the shop. I've spent more than 2x more time killing frost dragons than actually sailing because a sloop hull needs 600 dragon nails (40 sheets) and the keel needs another 64 sheets. An alternative source feels right.

 

Bank expansion scroll: OSRS gave up to 190 extra bank spaces for Sailing. Alora has given zero. A mini expansion scroll in the vote shop would help everyone.

 

Boat speed boost: +0.5 base / +0.5 max for 15 minutes, disabled during Barracuda Trials. A camphor or ironwood hull with the boost only temporarily matches a rosewood hull. Rosewood with the boost still goes faster. Hull upgrade tiers stay intact. That said, if the team prefers a gentler version, +0.5 base with no max speed increase or +0.25 on both for 30 min may work too.

 

Daily-point shop: GIM Flex raises a good point that the daily shop is just as stale. Dragon metal sheets could go in both. But only the Vote Point Shop drives RSPS-ranking traffic that brings in new players, so refreshing it matters for growth.

 

Frag bag, cannon brew, notice board resets, and encounter boosts may be low-demand. Happy to revisit any of those when there's more demand or when combat releases.

 

I'd rather keep this thread focused on what items would actually work.

 

H / team, which of these would you want to move forward with?

 

love the feedback man.  Only reason I say "ew" for votebook shop, is because then.. it literally cancels out the grind for any ironman who has a normal acc and gambles... Coming from 1 person who legit does not play that style, i'd fall really behind vs other "ironmen" who just... used votebooks on their iron from normal. 

although it would be nice... It has been a major UIM paywall since the start of uim and well... I kinda like its not just a UIM struggle anymore. 
Constructions suppose to cost alot in real game > to drop 170m on a bond for stones/blocks is not end of world and makes it actualy seem like a grind...
not just another easy one at that. 


Neutral as, I play uim and love to see everyone else now dealing with this 1 minor thing, as well... Was never addressed and cared about before time to grind a bond to get that wind stuff
    but... Heres me sitting on tokens waiting for suggestion now before i buy em lol. 

See my responses in orange.
I understand $50k is quite steep and I don't want to come across as inconsiderate.. but the majority of divine donators got their rank by gambling in-game and buying rank tickets, making it much easier to acquire the rank compared to when immortal and eternal ranks were released. Using the excuse of "but it's $50k" for half the suggestions doesn't really justify why some of your suggestions should be added. If I had it my way, I would've revisited all donator perks and rebalanced and added some before deciding to release another tier, but what's done is done.
Perhaps lowering the amount required for the rank from $50k to $40k would make the rank feel more justified? But I'm not sure if that's something Omicron is willing to do at this stage.
