How about a "Fixed Throwing Blades" Lockbox?

    What's wrong with Throwing Blades?
    Is because of that SLOPPYFix they did to fix the Throwing Blades Exploit? Forcing you to fully charge the power without being able to tap damage, is that it?

    Are throwing blades able to hit objects now or is that still a problem.

    Why stop at powers? They could do things like a high resolution texture pack lockbox, or a combine REC and END into one SS lockbox, or a stop falling damage from being a percentage of your maximum health lockbox, a finish the work started on DX11 lockbox, a foundry lockbox, or a level cap increase lockbox.

    I'd like a Lockbox power that gives you the ability to unlock all Lockboxes for free, with a 2-minute cooldown.

    Well, when you show new people this game it takes about 20 minutes for them to say something along the lines of "at least they had the decency to make this dumpster fire MMORPG free, let's play something else instead."

    If CO wants a new playerbase, they'll have to make a decent product. Right now, this game is bad comedy.

    I want a new power called the I Win Button. When used I win at everything no exceptions. It will also alert every zone with a line of flashing text at the top of the screen proclaiming that I won for all the people to see.

    However if two people use the I Win Button simultaneously it will cause the game server to crash and require no less than 2 hours of maintenance to have it back up and running.

    and since as soon as it is out, flocks of people will get it. Just to say " I'm the winner" game will be offline fulltime.

    How about a "Pre-Nerf Imbue" Lockbox. I'm sure they could make a bunch of bucks off all the pvpers rushing to get that gem back in their builds.

    I'm looking forward to the Deeply Concerned Lockbox, which has a chance to drop the Intervention power. When used, it opens a Google Maps browser tab with directions to the nearest Gamblers Anonymous support group.

    The Unsummon power, turn it on and all summoned creatures(apart from yours) vanish for 20 seconds.
    bye bye dinos .

    Now if they were really going for making money, they would put in, random no key lockboxes, which since the things stack means hunting through them one by one to look for "your free box"
    - BUT I opened 100 boxes and I didn't get an opened one.
    - It's random
    - but it says 1 in 100 and I opened 100
    - that's 1 in 100 over the game not you.
    - but I opened 100 so I should get 1.

    Oh, Jiggle Physics lockbox, with slottable jiggle bits, use one for fun or complete the full jiggle physics set to become a quivering QWOP-like ragdoll.

    You know what powers SHOULD be in all lockboxes as a random prize. The Bloodmoon ones. Thats the type of powers you should be able to find in lockboxes.

    Make the whole game free for all free form free to play, only unlock the first two tiers of all power sets for free, put all the other powers in the lockboxes.

    This changes nothing for subscribers, so there's no need to buy boxes of tissues for their tears.

    I assume that all powers will remain unlocked for my freeform slots? I paid a lot of money for those, and if I suddenly find the majority of powers locked I'd be interested in a hefty refund. My purchases in this regard are equivalent to over a year of subscription.

    Also, I think a game balanced around people who only have access to the first two tiers might have to be even more wimpy than a game balanced around archetypes.

    Well the free form slot needs to be a pay once play forever 'subscription', $50 for one thing that's so limited is crazy.

    Free form slots should be 100 zen each.

    Realistically, Free Form slots cost 25 dollars if you know how marketing strategies work.

    1 dollar a piece? They'd never sell a single one. I mean sure, I'd love to get free form slots for free as much as anyone...
