Hi, I hope this idea can get traction. I really want to do inferno mode, but the idea of wasting all potions while progressing just seems too painful.
As there is literally no real reward aside from bragging rights, it would be great if these raids didn’t consume potions and bombs. Currently, they already allow free max specs with 5x3/allocatable stats/free legion gear so free consumables seems in line with the current developer intent.
Additionally, it would make the entire process more pug friendly and overall less toxic.
Honestly, i cannot understand people who support grinding mats. The fact that you paid for your potions does not mean you are a better player or more dedicated. It just means you wasted more time.
Honestly, I can not understand people who want nearly everything in games for free or for as little effort as possible. Stronghold exists for a reason, you get plenty for free aswell.
I thought about this, and always wonder if Inferno is content base on skill, why is it involve financial barrier.
Organization do that in real life to prevent random people joining in to lower the quality of the contest and increase the unnecessary cost, however, those two concern were not present in the game environment.
In fact, because it is in game, it is much easier to host a skill based content like this because it’s pretty much no cost.
From that, the most logical way for inferno to work, is to remove ALL cost from player so everyone can join and compete, include not only free combat item, but also unlock all skill tripod, gems, card set, gear set…etc. plus the equalize environment, so everyone participate in can contest in the equal ground, and make inferno a truly skill base content instead of the content for whoever has the most gold.
Now the thing is, the more gold you have, the more time you can practice and higher chances people can beat it. it has skill element in it, but it is based on how much gold you have.
i agree, everything else is provided so why not consumes?
i dont want free consumables for all fights just on inferno, its meant to be for fun and prestige, otherwise why do you not just use your own gear for it too?
we were doing it last night, it’ definitely makes a difference when you need to switch form the purple pots to blue, but all in all is a great way to learn the raid (You don’t know the health bars, but you learn alot about the bosses attack cycles and mechs)
