    Default Gold purchasable "revival elexirs"

    Not sure if this was mentioned before, but do you guys think this will happen in the future? Pros and cons? Sure help out the non plat buyers.

    I don't think sts will do this and elites will also be quite easy if everyone can revive.

    I just think it gives the non plat users a more even playing field when in comes to elites.

    If anything they will follow suit with what they have done with other elixirs. Make them purchasable with plat as kits that can be sold in the CS. I don't see why this wouldn't be done. I'm pretty sure it has increased the sales of the elixirs they have done this to.

    If it's plat purchaseable and then sold for gold it isn't a gold sink, then only the listing fee is paid which will be low.

    It's not a gold sink if the gold remains in game.

    As for revives, would be interesting to see how they implement it. You can't exactly access your inventory when you're dead. And if you pop it like an energy, would it mean you get an auto revive even if don't want to revive that time, or would it be a counter on the revive screen? If the latter would probably mean a new client

    I hope they do implement this, revives for like 1k gold, I think it's reasonable. I don't think it should be an elixir or purchasable kits. You should just be given the option when you die. Also I can't see how this will make elites any easier, and it's kind of benefit since gold is more readily available and a better option for players to spend vs plat. Many users who don't use use platinum for revives now have the option to do so therefore reducing the strain on the party if that member dies.

    Oh I guess you're right. It wouldn't be a gold sink.

    Yeah like when you die... it would have 2 options for revival. Either 1 plat or 15k gold.

    1k gold... If sts would ever do it it would have to be around 50k atleast otherways elites will just be die and revive.

    Consider it, if each player dead need about 15k just to revive with that elixirs survive, and the amount of dead more than he/she predict.
    It still get disadvantage, indeed if the player who spend gold to revive but get nothing from the bosses.
    That stuff about revive elixirs will help non plat users, the question, will non plat user buy it only to revive for how many death?

    I don't understand why ppl over price something especially when it's potentially to your benefit. I only said 1k bcs 1 plat is equivalent when u covert plat to gold. If it was 50k I doubt anyone would pay gold to revive, I know I certainly wouldn't. Would you? I don't understand if ppl revive a lot whats the problem it's causing you?

    I would prefer a "boss no-reset" elixir because some of us just like to do solo runs.

    Well isn't it annoying when you get close to killing a boss...like Helena, and boom you have to start over. I wouldn't mind dieing but we all know that feeling.

    I hope STS sees this thread.

    How effective it will be as a gold sink though depends on how much it would cost, if they were to price it between 5-10k, it wouldn't scare ppl away and would generate a good amount of gold back imo.

    Yes but that's not everyone that's only a smaller player base, if everyone can revive for 1k the howl time the challenge of running an elite is gone.
