Change the price of certain items in the event shop
Now due to the achievements, people get EC really quickly and items like Throwing Knifes are spammed badly in Bases, Spar, Everywhere... I hope the throwing knifes can be set at around 2-3 EC so people would take a second though about buying it. Next the 30 EC melees are dealing 8 damage and the Hunter and Kiwi already outclass them. These 30 EC melees should be place at 15 EC? Players would have these items then have their EC refund to avoid any riot again Next, I have seen many people using AC and the Candy Launcher. That makes the AC is same (the Easter launcher isn't that bad as it is slow), I wish the AC would have a bigger fire spread? Next, I know people may hate me for this but, The bamboo should be 8 damage, why? As the bamboo doesn't always block at 100% it is only 40-60%. So to fair out with the katana it should be 8 damage, or make the bamboo block 100% like umbrellas or the sabers. |

5 Achievements- 1 EC. before it was every 2 achievements for 1, The katana doesnt need to be touched. its well worth its price. Nerf the Candy launcher, leave the AC. The 30 Ec melees are pretty much for the looks, im assuming that they put the prices high because next to everyone would want something quick and easy- Hunter knife-Kiwi blade. leave the price of the throwing knifes, they dont need to be touched. Throwing knifes, Olympic rings, anything throwable should be disabled in spar, only spar. oh, instead of downgrading the price of the 30 EC Melees, how about nerfing the Kiwi and Hunter down to 8 damage, then make the 30 ec melees 9 damage. therefor they arent as fast as Katana but good enough, this way Katana is still worth its price. |

The lightsaber still isn't that good... Should have knockback or something. Tip for people: don't buy a lightsaber at the moment, buy a katana or a hunter/kiwi they are practicaly (or maybe even) the same.

I think this is funny since I disagree with almost everything from the original post. If you haven't noticed, as the prices increase in the event shop, the capabilities of the items decrease. 1. Throwing knives are perfect at 1 EC. They have near equal ability compared to the M4, but the ammo is limited. I see them as bait for players to spend their ECs instead of saving up for the permanent items. 2. The 30 EC melees are specifically for the looks. Unlike most of the event weapons, they were not given out before the EC system (so I've heard, I didn't play at the time). The description clearly states that they do 8 damage, so if you want to buy it for it's ability, think again. 3. The artillery cannon is incredibly over powered as is. Increasing the blast radius would only cause complaints. 4. The bamboo already received a block buff. When it was released most melees were slow, and 7 damage was a lot compared to most of the easily obtainable melees. I guess 8 damage wouldn't hurt, considering every melees released to the public does 8 damage with equal speed. (Side Note: Lightsaber/Umbrella doesn't block 100%. In fact, the block is practically useless, so it's just for the looks.) 5. The EC weapon that I think is either over priced or under powered is the Gas Gun. I've observed at least 5 people purchase the lightsaber, strictly for the looks, over the Gas Gun. In fact, I've only seen one person buy it, and even then he rarely uses it since it's blocked out by the gas mask. Unlike other guns, the range is limited because the shell lands at a specific distance. So if it were to be used like an artillery cannon, the Gas Gun still wouldn't be very capable of killing off of bullet hits. From what I have seen, some players have received it for free. There was probably some work put into it, but why would I want to waste hundreds of hours hoarding event coins to buy something that another player received for a few hours of work (Obviously this doesn't show both sides of the story, but it seems to be the popular mindset among the event coin hoarders). It would be nice if the price was cut by 25 EC or so, and give the only person who bought it a full refund for the option to purchase a 100 EC reskinned hunter knife for the prestige and looks, instead of cheaper item that is completely original, but also near useless in combat. |

Okay, gunna say this once so all of you listen up. Kiwi, Hunter, Bamboo, Katana, and AC were available by just winning ONE event prior to the even shop. The reason hyrule, mace and the other stuff are priced equal to or higher, but aren't necessarily as good is because of the rarity effect they have because they were NOT available before the Event Shop. This will probably never change, and it is something I agree with because it is logical. Want cheaper EC items? Make them and send it in. Bitching about prices that are actually logical does nothing. |

The only thing that needs to be changed is the lightsaber. Meph said he'd play with it a few weeks ago, but nothing's happened...oh well

And the lightsaber needs changing it looks cool it's just not worth 100 ec make it faster and knockback maybe just an idea Increase the percentage block for the saber it's terrible can't block much same as umbrella the umbrella not worth it now cause they changed the percentage of the block |
