    Ah, so we both agree on redesigned/Recolored version of lb vanities/rare vanities for platinum. XC alright noice.

    "and recoloured can be purchasable via plat therefore everyone benefits"

    do realize that king stated that the vanity set would be untradeable, which contradicts "everyone" here. All i see the ones benefiting are sts and the plat buyers. Sure plat buyers keep the game running but what about the players that grind? Aren't the purpose of lb vanities is for people to grind for it?

    Inflation is Inflation as long as these gold mines exist, without an effective goldsink to equalize.

    Manipulation Is manipulation as long as STS doesn't do anything despite proof, and for those players who defend such. How about stop beating around the bush, making excuses and contemplate on the real problems, Inflation and Manipulation.

    Just because there are individuals who aren't fond with these driving forces affecting the prices doesn't justify it to be re-introduced.

    Are ya'll gonna turn a blind eye for those individuals who bought these vanities for its advertised exclusivity, and the fact that only so little have possession?

    I don't own any of those rare vanity and i am strongly against any recolor or reintroduction
    of those old vanity, there is a constant flux of new vanity, get those one and wait til they are rare!!
    Why people absolutely want to destroy this rarity??

    I prefer 1000 times to get new vanity instead, just think of what happen with green arlor....

    Yes I did mean to say they would be untradeable. And who says only plat buyers can benefit. There can always be another way or method for grinders to benefit also. This is just an idea, that is not fully developed. So yes pieces might be missing here and there. But who said we are forgetting about grinders and only care for plat users. Like I said just an idea, and anyone else on these forums can contribute on their ideas and what they would like to see.

    What are you talking about? The ONLY REASON why players want the old lb vanities is bevause they look GOOD unlike the current lb ones. You don’t get it. If sts actually made vanities as good as the older ones for lb half of the players wanting the old lb vanities would not complain, there has to be a variety of lb vanities and there is but the past 2 years they have just been meh. I’m certain that 90% of the community agrees that the current lb vanities aren’t all that amazing.

    That’s why it comes a few times a year, say every 4-3 months? Or 3-4 times a year..

    This gives you time to do FREE plat offers and buy a little bit of plat once a month or so. So it gives you time to save up to buy one of these unique vanities, so like I said...

    Benefits everyone!!

    On a side note, you or what player can make it top 10 on an energy based event solely on farmable energies?... not questioning your ability to do so... but it’s a little to almost impossible...

    Like I’ve stated earlier... benefits everyone...

    -STS makes their cash profit...

    -Players have their own Unique nontradable version of the old lb vanity...

    -The originals will keep their rarity and value since they’re original and they’re tradable...

    This is what I was trying to get at... hopefully you understood.

    Another example would be:

    “Juiced Up Frank”


    -Price: 8,400 platinum
    -Nontradable vanity *Set*

    I didn’t make another thread about it... if that’s what you’re asking... just an example I tried to explain.

    On a side note, shouldn’t you make another thread about how rogues are the weakest class and another thread crying about pvp balance or something?

    Recent vanities looking "bad" is your own subjective preference.

    Reintroducing vanities, specifically those advertised as "exclusive" is unethical. Thats decieving, false advertising, basically fraud.

    Its all competition, want that vanity? Then get around the other hundreds who also want it.

    A typical and prime example would be the ice spirit 2014 lb vanity, now compare the ice spirit vanity that came from winter 2014 to 2020 ursoths vanity, the ice spirit vanity makes the ursoth lb one look like it’s 10k gold. They are both lb so why does one look so much better than the other, point is every lb vanity tradeable or not should look as good as each other, then that creates variety in AL meaning that players have other lb vanities to chase besides the old ones

    I love this idea so much i just saved some cash in case it becomes reality u never know tbh. Devs been listening to players lately soo

    Vanities have been so boring since I came back to the game a couple months ago. Back then mummy vanities flooded the market and were attainable for 300k. The mummy wings were literally trash lol Nobody wanted those things. Now people dropping 15m for these sets This is the sad case for alot of the vanities. The restock is needed to quench the thirst of these “inflation” rioters and the economy as a whole tbh. Would be nice to bring some more life into the game.

    This is not true, the ONLY REASON they want it is because they can't have it, if they become common no one will use them anymore,
    and when you say it is because they are more good, i don't agree either as i find celtic armor or magmatus vanity way nicer than frank set, so please be honest and don't say people want them cause they are "more good"

    Unethical? Really ok. Let’s talk about sns it was displayed a lb reward so why did they bring it back when players spent 20+ hours a day grinding for it for 3 weeks. What about nightshade when it was a lb reward? They brought it back. Another similar situation is the green arlor vanity that caused a outrage, it was pricey and exclusive now it’s worth nothing. It’s been done in the past and it can happen again.

    As for the current ones looking “bad” like I said I’m pretty sure 90% of the community thinks they are meh, I didn’t say bad or imply it. If there was a poll between let’s say a ghost medusa/ice spirit vanity set against a halloween 2019 vanity set I am so certain and positive majority of the players will pick the ice spirit/ghost medusa set, yes it may be subjective but it’s facts, most players wants the older ones for a reason not the newer ones.

    I’m not talking about tank vanities. I’m specifically talking about the rogue versions. The reason isn’t because they can’t have it, it’s simple. If sts put out a ice spirit in front of everyone and a Halloween 2019 doll vanity (gold) regardless if it’s a lb vanity or not people will choose the ice spirit, forget it being a lb vanity, forget it being exclusive.

    I think majority of you are missing out the point.

    I said bring back CURRENTLY EXISTING tradeable sets and essentials like backpacks and weapons to the game.

    No recolors (stop with that wannabe hellboy set seriously), put back into the game stuff that's been here in the past leaderboard events and was tradeable.
    Make people stop complaining about how expensive those items are.

    Don't forget - it's just a game.

    That's all.

    Aka Ares/Twerrk/Mystery. :]

    “Only reason they want it is because they can’t have it” so if someone manages to get their hands on a lb vanity they don’t want it anymore simply because they have it in their possession.

    Your comment makes no sense. People want them for their exclusivity and looks. Yes I agree frank set isn’t that nice imo. But for rogues, many players like the ice spirit set since it is unique looking and extremely rare. That is why people want it, atleast for that certain set. People have their subjective preferences. There is obviously going to be individuals that don’t like the lb vanities, that’s just part of life not everyone will like the same thing. But I think I can say for most rogues that ice spirit is a nice looking set.
