Sell all things that add convinience for the players.
But never EVER sell CORE RULE COMPONENTS and game mechanics or POWER in the shop. This makes the game automaticly Pay 2 Win.
And if it is P2W, you will never get a player base large enough. Do you think the players will not notice it? Gamers are not dumb. You hope they are, but I think most of them aren't.
They will use f2p, as long as they can, and after that, they vanish. They are not fair to you, because you decided first, that you are not fair to them.
Without the f2p gamers, who start to buy things, your player base will shrink fast because of your anti-longlivety system. Players will be "bored to death" after one month. With a shrinking player base, you will have less foundry authors, and the devs themselves are not able to generate new content fast enough to hold the players in this game.
This game, as it is now, incuding the messed up fighter classes, is doomed to fail.
