[Suggestion] Weapon Skins in Gem Store
Or… you could buy gems, convert them to gold and
buy that thing straight from the tp.
BOOM! Problem solved.
Fair point, but then equally, why not have all armors and outfits available for Claim Tickets instead of Gems?
I’ll amend my original post, as I was thinking of new skins, not the existing ones.
The reason for my suggestion is not that its impossible to get the current skins that are available, but that this would add another route for people to get skins.
They could be account bound on acquire to prevent issues with unsettling the markets, and available for time limited periods like current gem store items. It doesn’t detract anything from the current system, but adds an alternate way of obtaining skins.
They already have these. They just don’t release them as often. Kasmeer’s Staff, Marjory’s Axe and Dagger were all gem store weapon skins that were very popular. I’m sure this will become more common in the future. As for entire weapon sets, I seriously doubt that will happen. First they prefer the gem store to be ‘clean and simple’ which is why many items are limited time. Second, Claim Tickets are the number one reason to acquire BL Keys. People aren’t getting them for a random chance of trans charges or some unid dyes or boosters. I don’t think they’d do anything to undermine that. As they introduce more LS friends and foes and we become attached to them, I imagine, we’ll see some new weapon skins for gems but not on a regular basis like we have now with BL skins.
