    Default Suggestion: Inspecting other characters should cost 1 Plat.

    I think STS should implement inspecting other characters for 1 plat. There's too many people that loves to inspect people and won't run or do elite with anyone who's damage are low. And i think it's a stupid idea, when people doest that. I know quite a few people who plays better than most players who have arcane items and pets.

    This way, it will give STS a way to earn some revenues. Plus, it will make pvp even more interesting.

    What does everyone thinks?

    That works also. Anything like that will give gold sink or $$$ for STS for people who love to inspect others.

    Or we can just have customizable profiles for 5 plat that allow to hide any of the info on your profile that you want.

    People don't want to waste time which is why they refuse to run with people who have no damage. Charging for the inspect feature will not fix your inability to kill things. It will just mean people leave as soon as they see the performance rather than before they start. Pugs are already a waste of time and energy - doing 1/4 runs then then having to go find a proper party member would just make it worse.

    Seriously, proper gear isn't even expensive and you don't need mythic OR arcane to have decent stats.
    You never know what you can do until you try
    There are two ways of doing something: right, and again.

    No thanks, if I am doing a test run for a possible recruit, then I want to know what his/her stats are.

    How will it make PVP more interesting? I didn't even know there was a way to inspect while in PvP? If there is, I'd like to know.

    So you would rather have people with great stats but can't play their characters well? What does that tell about you?

    Let's say take the odds into account. If i invited a player with good stats, there is a high chance that he/she can play his/her character decently. I cannot say the same for a player with low stats.

    Plus, if a player has low stats, I can divulge from his PvE kills how dedicated he is. Potions are expensive as you run the tombs and most people wouldn't bother with it anyways.

    There is a huge difference between "Decent" and "Useful"

    The real issue is when some one who doesn't have enough armor and/or health tries to do elite. Damage doesn't matter if you keep dieing. I'd rather play with someone who has a good amount of health and armor and knows how to play so they don't die. So you need to inspect people so you can advice people on gear changes they need to make. Many "top" players in this game couldn't play elite if they couldn't revive with plat. Even when they have the best gear in the game.

    I'll just take this as a joke, but it's pretty obvious why it won't be useful.

    Ok, then. People will make hundreds of fake accounts and inspect their real character 7 times with each fake account. Why 7? The 7 free plat you get in the beginning of course.

    I think it's self explanatory why too much plat is a bad thing.
