Permanent Token Packs/Anni Packs

My husband and I just turned Sage and found out how to acquire our Sage skills. Farm an FB99 for a minute percentage drop of a skill we require or stock up on Advanced Mystical Pages and trade them in for all our skills.

I have really bad luck. Faming an FB for my skills would be nigh impossible for me. I don't like games of luck. I like concrete and firm results.

This is where anni packs come in.

1 Anni pack = 15 tokens, which results in 1 Advanced Mystical Page* (hereto referred as AMP) when exchanged at the Agent.

We've had packs that have a chance of giving me an AMP*, but again it's not concrete. At least with Anni packs I am guaranteed an AMP*.

Also if Anni packs were permanent, it would fix the economy. I do not mean that the economy will return to it's previous state. I mean it will tapper off and stay at a certain range rather than fluctuate as it does now.

I hope this is appropriate.

Edit:

There are also numerous advantages to Token packs. Flawless and Perfect shards can be guaranteed. So can Mysterious chips for ultimate weapons. All of which I want/need to better my character.

    Also, it'd put an end to (at least one side of) the QQ'ing about Anni Packs.

    Eh, sadly I don't think anything can end the QQing. They will eventually find something new to b:cry about.

    I am already finding it hard to buy tokens from players. Therefore, the anni pack fever has diminished. Making them permanent now would be advantageous not harmful.

    I already dread them leaving :( I want my sage skills.

    Same here...now that I have a bit more spare cash (that I would otherwise burn one something probably even more stupid and useless than this MMO), I'm finding these Anni Packs to be quite pleasant now.

    ...besides, I want that damn -6% channeling, +2/3% crit ring.

    This is pretty much the opinion of most of the community. b:chuckle Get rid of them after they have their stuff from them.

    I wouldn't mind them sticking around...if only to make my TT runs cheaper.

    Seriously. It's less expensive for me to buy a few tokens and make ultimate substances than it is for me to buy the materials for it. And far less time consuming compared to flying all over the map to get the materials. Heck, take out the lucky aspect and just keep the tokens around. I'm fine with that.

    Venomancers are Female. Barbarians are male. It will forever be this way. So suck it up and deal with it already.

    Indeed, packs ARE the reason gold got so high. When they left the first time gold barely dropped in price. Then they came back and gold went back to how it was when they were first there. Basically, gold will never go back to the way it was so why not keep anni packs around forever?

    Like you, I want my stuff but it's still going to take me forever to acquire it all through packs so I need them to stay forever :P

    That's why I named them "token packs" in my title. I would totally pay 1 dollar for 15 tokens.

    Yea, I like the packs. They keep the price of some needed items low (flaweless shards, apoc pages, lvl 11 skils).

    And well, the gold price is setteling again at 350k, it's good enough for me

    It's around 450k here on HT...but still, I can't help but wonder...

    ...did the GM's predict that'd we'd eventually get used to the Anni Pack...?

    LOL I don't think the GMs work for PW's marketing department. You need to disassociate GMs and PW Cash shop. GMs don't run PW, they are just regular employees. Think of them as Receptionists. The front desk workers.

    Their Marketing department sure did a great job with releasing Anni Packs, though I'm sure they were released in the original version of PW first. Their re-releasing them was brilliant and needed. Especially with year end coming, share holders want to see a huge profit boost.

    Making them permanent would insure they have a continuous income, one greater than Fashion and Charms.
