Ever thought about putting Jones' Blessing in Cash shop? of course for a cheap price and long duration.

    I'm sorry but that would be a waste of money. Yes it was nice while it lasted but to spend real money no thanks like i don't use the cash shop but no it would just be a waste.

    Im all for it, and think it would be great.

    I use the cash shop and I dont spend a dime of real life money on it. In game AH FTW! And yeah would actually be something useful I could spend my in game money on.

    I'd buy it personally, but it's a bad idea because a lot of people would be furious, and some would probably even quit the game. The only way it'd work out is if there was also a +30 defense blessing, and even then those who couldn't afford it would whine a lot. b:laugh

    How about new hair styles? Put something interesting in the cash shop or better shoes with the curly asian toe at the end. Or maybe just diffrent makeup? Maker scrolls are a rip off.
    I personally think half the dresses in the cash shop are ugly compared to the high level dresses in game that are low cut in the front for player 55 and up.

    Do people realise that the second to highest gem in the game gives one attack level?
    Looking on another post in the forum (http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?p=1001561), the one giving one attack level is worth about 670 mil, and the one giving one defense level is worth 4.1 billion.

    This means that the jones blessing box has a vaule of 20.1 billion coins in game, not to add in the cost of using the available sockets to actually add the gems.
    Also, iirc from database, the cost of imbuing the gems is 200k PER ONE.

    This means a 2 gold jones blessing would give the equivalant bonus of 20.1 billion, for slightly higher (at current gold conversion) than the price of imbuing ONE of these gems.

    Think you would have to look at these maths before seriously suggesting adding jones blessing into the game ;).

    But then again the in game economy is too closely intertwined with the Cash shop economy anyway, MP pots are pretty much redundant for classes with no MP regen or recovery skills as Charms are simply more cost effective.

    your number is pretty wrong there ;) since you also forget what the gems itself gives... that 1% more attack is worth = nothing since the stones to give the attack/defence costs soo much... the % is just an add-on for wasting soo much money ingame and they want you to think you got something worthfull back!

    I read somewhere that "No boutique item will give a player an advantage in game" Jones blessing = advantage.

    That doesn't seem to be official policy, Nayiro. There are some minor advantages available, such as improved flight speed or easier access to Mirage Stone enhanced items. I'm not sure what to call the Charms -- beating a couple dimes out of someone before succumbing to his or her blades doesn't strike me as losing, especially if you don't drop anything worthwhile yourself -- but some people would consider that an advantage. Even the purely aesthetic clothing provides a minor advantage (hiding armor without providing the bright white target). Other things can be more significant.

    There are a lot of things that PWE does not want to have in the Cash Shop. Skills, for example, or anything that obligates (literally requires) users to purchase Cash Shop items. Any sort of Morlock/Eloi type of result is not fun for anyone involved.

    As for the suggestion, I'll let Xarfox 's words speak for themselves:
    We have no intention of selling 30% damage or 30% defense cash shop items.
