So... I just took a good look through the cash shop only to find that I really had no interest in any of the items. The mounts to go travel faster are nice, but seem a little unneccesary given the teleports and the size of the map. The EXP scrolls are a good idea except it puts the pressure to grind on... (i'd rather earn double EXP on my next 10000 EXP rather than on what i kill in an hour) and the clothing is kind of meaningless without some sort of stat....

I will likely grab some wing upgrades for my cleric but overall I was dissapointed that there wasn't anything really advantageuous. I want a '5 lvl increase' scroll or some heafty 'PVE only' stat weapons/armor and I want gold charms to not effect pvp combat, because otherwise they are essentially manditory.

Anyways Just some thoughts I had and thought i'd see what you guys thought.

    Well the clothes are for looks, and dont get rid of any stats your armor gives you, to the best of my knowllage anyhow

    um

    i do think there should be more in the cash shop

    but i do not think it should get to the point anyone who doesnt buy from it has a large dissadvantage

    so im 50 50 with you on that

    I like this cash shop, its generally not bad for those who dont have money. Whats the point of playing a game where you can only really succed at paying money? Well, it happens here? Dont think so, you just have a great advantage over others that dont CS at buying skills, mats, whatever, but you dont become overpowered xD

    I agree that the cash shop should have a wider assortment of mounts. I mean once you get past the horse mounts (or a dragon? Really?) you dont really get very much variety after that.... ooo a polar bear /sarcasm. I'd like to see a MUCH better selection of cloths for sale as well. I made the mistake of buying the chain jacket.... it came in black. And now everytime I put it on I look like David Bowie, FLAMING!b:angry I like the chain Pants though, Keep moving in that direction!

    Well, there is still a lot of stuff to be brought in ( see http://www.ecatomb.net/home.php for more stuff) but do remember that there are people playing with jobs, me included.

    If there were things that would increase your level and easy access to gears then the game would be Rich/Obsessed > Poor/Casual Gamers, regardless of all the work those who can't pay put in. Take this Phoenix that's supposedly coming in for example, it's going to be really powerful, but from what I've heard, it costs a lot to buy initially and then on top of that, it only eats rare pet food, so hopefully only a fraction of people will be able to get it and maintain it (Imagine how much people will hate venos if the phoenix became like the new magmite).

    Remember that it's a Free-to-Play game, not like some games where it's more "Free-to-play-but the-donators-buy-super-legendary-equips-and-own-everyone-without-mercy"

    I like whats in the cash shop, theres somewhat to choose from but yes the mounts i wish there were some cooler looking ones or some better flying mounts like griffons or giant birds but they can only do so much but they're working good and maintaining a great game. Good jobs guys!

    I want to get a parrot. They show them on the website and forum page, and as a parrot owner IRL I'd love one of my characters to have one. As long as they weren't too expensive, at least.

    I went to visit the Malaysian version a during mantainance...and... Don't worry, there are a lot more CS items on the way. Giant black bird sound better than a goose flying mount? Or the golden flyng device the human GMs have? Baby hamster pets, etc... and best of all..ADVANCED TRANSFIGURE SCROLLS!(might be "Advanced Makeover scroll in this version>_>) >:]
    88 FIRE! An "anti-tank" projectile, accompanied by an AC-130 are on their way to ensure insanity.

    ME TOO... I keep looking everywhere for how to get that scarlet macaw parrot! I own an umbrella cockatoo in RL & used to have a blue & gold macaw. We're looking for a sweet macaw in RL too. LOL

    I think it's very mean for the pet manager to tell us about parrots & then show us this parrot on the website & yet we can't get one at all. Why say we can when we can't? It's just mean! LOL (not really being serious there, but sorta) b:cry
