then start a petition for new wings biggrin imo they can make even better ones, more spread out instead of wings going abit diagonal. theres many more ways to make alternative. biggrin alchemy is made so theres use for trash, zomg loots, and fishes that have accumulated for a long time. what better way to get people motivated to do alchemy than rare items that everyone angtsy about. i think its genius! it also helps the really rich people in gaia have a challenge, and gold sink if theyre willing to even try crafting the wings items. lol!
I don't even want the wings. That's not the point. emotion_facepalm Why do you keep telling people that? Are you ignoring what other people are trying to say since making a petition is some God's given answer to Gaia? I don't know how great of a gold sink this even is. I kind of think it sort of makes things worse as the people who hoarded billions are now spreading the wealth. The gold was concentrated within a small group of people and now it's going to others. It's aiding, but I don't think it's a very effective gold sink unless it's taking gold from everyone at a steady rate. Kind of like when people suggest that more components should be placed in Bifrost for a high amount. That would be an effective gold sink. It's taking away gold faster instead of spreading the gold.
o.o
so your main problem is that now more ppl have good income that they can use to by themself more good items and not play bootygrab for that?
Is this like ants or something? You see one, and that guarantees 20 more are nearby?
Anyways...
I don't care about gold getting spread around. HOWEVER that is not entirely the case. The rich Gaians mostly make their own cases and caches.
My main problem is that this is so inaccessible... I mean hell they admit its for the upper 3% of the site. And backwings were promised for years... this is how they choose to release them? In this broken scam of a feature?
Keiko rin tried SIXTEEN TIMES to craft her kitten star. That is 16 MILLION gold just in ATTEMPTS ALONE. In the end she had to go to staff to get the item manually granted to her. THESE ARE THE ODDS WE FACE IN ALCHEMY.
These are the odds we face for the wings. The wings we waited years for. The wings the artists danced around, like with hermes moon, refusing to give us anything that might be similar to backwings. These are the wings that everyone is supposed to have a chance at.
Everyone does NOT have a chance at these. I've been on Gaia since I was 13 but I've grown up now. I'm 21. I don't have time, to sit here and play on Gaia all day, and I don't have the money to buy my riches.
There are tons of other people in my situation.
Now, I am supportive of the people who're currently ATTEMPTING to make backwings, but doesn't this seem a tiny bit backwards to you? That they'd make a system that only a few people in a very specific situation could use?
This feature is so ******** that most people cannot even attempt to use it...
It's broken. It needs fixing.
At the end of the day... whether I personally have the wings, is not my main concern. I'd never use them anyways. But, people should be able to try. People should be able to participate. Right now, they can't.
First of all i didnt said alchemy dont need tweeking yes it can be done many many things to it like better odds for example, or removing the fish and zomg items from caches craftings but still i do not agree it is a broken future, i do not agree it is for only 3% of gaians and i do not agree that having been first to craft something have to be granted only becouse you are old user... i am old user too and i dont expect to be granted with free items for that
I only want to say that if more ppl were doing alchemy there would be more items in the market and your crafting work would have been cheaper and easyer.... and yes there are few thing that can be tweeked
