Jordan 159 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 So after a huge debate on discord there were many ideas said, the main one that most people said was having dungeoneering being the way to get primal weapons in game. I got rid of the other post since this has a better approach to it. The ideas: After level 99 there would be a chance to obtain primal weapons after every boss or floor. The primals from dung would be untradable They would degrade over time/on death like chaotic and would require being repaired using dung tokens/gp Adding primal repair tokens to the crystal chest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelly 159 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 What happens to current primal? Obsolete? Keep the ones currently in game tradable along with untradeables or trade in tradable primals to staff for up to date untradeable version- kind of like the serp helmet addition. Why risk a primal when the ones from dung are kept on death? Prices of primals could crumble? Would there be any benefits or downsides to either options to balance out both? Keep primals in summer shop and in some boxes or would this be squashed if untradeables added? What are the odds of getting an untrafeBlr primal? Very rare? Great concept of incorporating primals while making the dung grind worthwhile SUPPORT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nh chaotic 5 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Are those primals from dungeoneering the same as normal but can degrade and needs to be recharged? If so i dont see the point of adding it. Seems like a good idea for iron man only since they can 't obtain primals atm. Maby instead of keeping primals trade able and add these you could also make all primals untrable feels like this could only work if all primals ingame get these update, and all act like chaotics do atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for now, I think we would like to see what the community thinks. Everyone feel free to suggest alternative ideas, or add to this suggestion. I would love to see what everyone thinks.

Since they degrade I'd say that should be how it works or something. Can you repair them thru the dung shop NPC? Say 10-30M or whatever the cost may be? they would be the exact same stats and it would recharge the same as a chaotic wep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No support from me. Feel littel same about it. If they keep untradeable and are very rare i can support it even i dont like it so much. Just thinking why not add promethium instead, its pretty new and price havent set well on this item. It will be anyways upgrade from chaotoc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan 159 Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 I don’t get why it’s a kick in the teeth for donators, being a big donator myself I couldn’t give two shits about it. Donating for something to get ingame is the easy way and that’s the price for it it, let the People that want to grind for items that SHOULD be obtainable ingame as boats said. the game shouldn’t be based on donators either, really it should be based off a normal player and what they can do to get to the end game. Donating is just a way of supporting the server for some goodies and perks, not what they want and what’s best for them every time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle 63 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 It's not like people who donated for Primal in the past lose their weapons. This armor is even suggested to degrade, and the paid version doesn't. As a donor I don't see any issue with this. I can't believe anyone here is opposing a change to Dungeoneering when it's one of the most monotonous skills in-game at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahamies 19 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Should add prom instead. And its kick for teeth you donated primals in first place because you werent aply to get from grind. Its same as you cant get donor status by grinding only if you donate. Same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing Promethium is already in-game (obviously donator exclusive as well) and still leaves a tier of BIS gear unreachable then. Whilst there was never an option in the past for those who donated for them to have the potential of grinding, Primals have been in-game long enough for those who spent the money to take full advantage of them (use, sell, hoard etc). If an item isn't obtainable in-game and is exclusively locked behind a paywall, Ely becomes a complete P2W server. As the options offer; if you want to donate for them and save a grind, go ahead. But if you don't fancy spending $50 or however much they are, you still have the option to pay. I am in full support of Primals being added in-game; gives an actual incentive for Dungeoneering to be reworked to fix this, opens up more gear possibilities for those looking to expand, gives players another thing to grind for instead of afking at home and can also add a new section for Collection Log hunters to further increase longevity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splash 203 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 @nh chaotic That doesn't help ironmen, Currently only the primal spear is obtainable for ironmen as we restrict what irons can donate for. The idea to bring the weapons into dungeoneering is to allow primals to be earned by anybody, mains can still buy the primal during summer event / through the eco with GP and skip what could be an extensive grind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahamies 19 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Looks like you have made your choise already so can you fix alc option on primal weapons so we can even cover our loses littel, because i dont see any primal will keep theyr current price anywhere close what it is now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan 159 Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 Currently primals have a high rate because of demand, maybe itll lower a little bit back to what they were worth beforehand. they will still have a huge value for being bis and to the many people that dont like to grind on the server.

Splash 203 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Ideally they'd be balanced to the point not everyone is going to have BIS weapons. They'd still be incredibly rare. This shouldn't impact eco much, if at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
