Is it possible to get all "Coin" types to be account bound like Plat?

It's faily annoying to have to. Over money to the Stash then switch character to pic it up. Then it would be nice to get Hauntlet and Story tokens merged as well. This could allow STS to also make more/better pets from those tokens and higher prices than 200-250.

Also, if you have some of me and Wizard_mike's suggestions on making some Elite coins where you get coins for completing elite dungeons and they can be used to buy the elite gear you are hoping to get through random chest drops. I think getting people to actually run elites will help with the burnout on the game that currently happens because people just farm Jarlx200 times.

No to buying story and hauntlet tokens. This would ruin the market for the few pets remaining that are actually worth something. You just have to work for it.

Some sort of elite token would be awesome, as long as the gear/pets/awards are worth there price.

I don't think he said anything about buying story/hauntlet tokens. Just stashing them.

Bad idea peeps would spend 120 plat for 10 toons and generate cilton eggs every 5 days... At its extreme

Idk, story and hauntlet tokens wouldn't be like the daily rewards, you do actually have to work for them. If people want to run the same 4 story missions 10 times every day, i'm fine with that if it does come at a cost to them.

Ok my bad.

Someone with a 50 toon army gets 1 Colton a day? That doesn't ruin the market?

I didn't say it wouldn't, but this isn't about you being able to make more money than the next guy (at least in my mind, I for one plan on earning my egg and keeping the pet then i'm not doing another story quest until more pets come out).

If someone were to pay for tons of toons to shorten the amount of time it would take them then i'm okay with that because they are still doing the exact same amount of work i'm doing to get the same thing. Sorry if that hurts your profit from something you get for free.

So I wonder... what kills the market more?

1. Someone having 50 toons and spending 5 hours (maybe) one day getting colton?

2. Someone having 50 toons and after 50 days having 50 coltons?

Depends, do they have the time in the day to run roughly 7 hours, uninterrupted, every day? If they do then more power to them, i have to much of a life to bother with all that noise.

Edit- Where'd the post go? O.o

high guys,

I don't want the ability to buy Hauntlet or Story tokens. There could be a simple fix to your worry of someone making 50 toons. Cap the total # of toons per account to 6 or 10.

Cap the total # of toons per account to 6 or 10. It has been discussed in other sts games about this, but Devs wont add a cap - because there are actually some legit people who are active on 10 chars+ and because sts would lose some money.

That and people can't just sit back and do what they did with Daily Blessings, they do have to actually go and do the quests.

I'd actually love the ability to stash hauntlet and story tokens but not able to trade them. This way I can farm tokens daily and makes it a bit easier to get those pets. Lets see... 3 toons on onw account, 4 tokens a day each becomes 12 tokens a day. Which is actually decent.

Yes, I agree this would be the result. Folks would make toon armies to farm tokens.

That's what people always want. I really don't get it. Don't people want something to be able to work towards? Something very elite and rare? I guess everyone wants the best gear and pets to be obtainable in 2 hours and then what? I get bored really fast. This is why I got bored on Pocket Legends, and I'm starting to get bored on AL too.

get rid of Jarl and the end game farming and economy wouldn't bottom out in a week. too quick/easy to farm the chests and best gear now..once people have the gear, people stop playing. If they stop playing, STS doesn't make money. The elite coin idea would help give you something to fight for, for a longer time period (assuming Jarl was gone and you couldn't do 90sec chest runs).

Yep there is nothing worth farming for because everything cost so little.

Maybe some of my elite guildies would play more if there was more reason to farm. So we keep noob players and get ride of the elite...... Not right

there would be more reason to farm if the items were sooo easy to get, thanks to Jarl... without jarl and with a coin collecting system for finishing elites then you could purchase 1-2 items which possibly getting lucky with chests on the on items. Of course they would have to make items slightly difficult to purchase with coins, but not too difficult that it would take you hundreds of elite runs to buy 1 item. it's a balancing act like everything else. But i think giving you a chance to purchase the items may make it enticing for those that don't want to do 1000 jarl runs and dumb luck to get some loot. They could sell both lvl 20 & 21 or 25 & 26 gear, and with each patch make the previous patch gear 1/2 price or sell it for another type of currency so it isn't gone forever (like the chance to get lvl 15-16 elite items).
