it has been said that they read about tw and changed mirages into big notes, if they made that change then same can be applyed here.
We should not be punshied for the failure of the company to prevent the exploit of the medals, its like punshing a whole group because a few ppl misbehaved.

    The exploit wasn't the only reason that the Medals were removed from the DQ Rewards. The developers thought that the Medals were too easy to obtain, thus undermining their purpose.

    what if they were returned but cost higher dq points?
    Can't say I dont agree on them being too easy to get, but I do miss the profit my DQs used to make for me b:surrender

    whatever meager a profit it was...

    Anyway I still dont understand the "**** cashshoppers" option

    They should have increased the DQ price significantly. 20k per medal was way too cheap. I was able to get enough medals for full R9 and then some by buying DQ en masse during a couple arch attacks. It only cost 1.5m per medal on average. Really it should have been more like 60k per medal or even 100k considering how great the gear is.

    they should take away half of the R9 gears pple already own because it was obtained 'too easily' n then make them pay 60k per medal or even 100k DQ

    WTF so the obvious solution is to take that option away from everyone else while having people with easy R9 already running around amirite? Is this why the first chip sale got a steeper cut in price after initial release and the players who paid for those chips got compensated? Because getting R9 was too easy?

    Genie is out of the bottle, should've thought a little more about that when cutting rep and chip prices the first time. The most obvious solution now is to start working on designs for R10, and not **** that up with a lol sale too.

    Figures you'd have gotten them at bargain basement prices, by the time I started collecting, the weekly Arch Attacks were over b:cry. My costs ranged from a low of 1.5M to a high of 5M when I got impatient and just bought from the AH.

    I agree, Medals should have had a much steeper cost in DQP, 100k would have been about right.

    After all this time of uncertainty, after most likely taking a financial hit because people (like me) wouldn't spend on chips and badges, it is time to put back the missing piece of the puzzle and return the medals to the DQ list as it was before. Any other solution is going to create more resentment from the player community. If you look at the numbers, they are already making over $1200 per R9 set from chips and badges, why **** everybody over and upset the whole economy just for making a few hundred more off the medals? The system is great the way it was. Most people already spend more money then usual on chips and badges to reach R9 but they also work very hard to grind for those medals. It gives us a sense of accomplishment and a reason to keep playing. If the whole thing was a cash affair, most people wouldn't go for full R9 gear. I'm a PvE player and I love my 2 R9 pieces I already got. But I would like to continue building the rest of my gear and as I bring up new alts they should also have a chance to go R9. I will keep spending if the system doesn't change. However, if medals make their way into the boutique, I will most likely stop playing altogether. It would be a sign that the company really doesn't care about it's player base. This "poll" is also pointless as there are about 80 pages full of "opinions" in the previous thread: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1051471. That should be enough to give them an idea of what the players really want. Go back and read it carefully. Don't be lazy GMs.

    I feel they should be put back, just doesnt seem fair to the people who had to farm for the mat's and spend countless hours of grinding map 3 for DQ, and also nirvana's to sell mats to make coin. I did a lot of Merchanting as well to make money, and it really isn't easy as it used to be because prices change so drastically now days that you can be stuck with items that are now virtually worthless. Maybe the metals arn't the hardest things to get, well then limit it by the times you do the sale, but I think having to farm the DQ items is a legit way and you should be able to earn the medals.

    to add:

    to place the medals into DQ system been a move towards f2p players, which i even appriciated even tho i wont be able to get rank9 anyway.
    But others could, people who been playing this game for years, collected their money to invest it in rank. Went grinding everyday for medals. Worked their asses off for this. i would totally grant those people this gear, since most of them are very skilled people. to remove them and say they are easy to obtain...emm who cares? the rest is more than expensive. Think was a nice slap to f2p base.

    I agree, the people who got rank9 should have it removed because it was obtained too easily. I wouldn't mind that those who lost their rank9 were given full nirvana +10 with any gem they want.

    I just don't see how them selling medals/chips in the catshop makes it harder for players to obtain then grinding does.

    Grinding mats < Buying mats with $$ (explain please, and if you dont cashshop you have

    to do tons of Nirvana's/TT'/etc to make that money)

    "Too easy to obtain" Possible translations: a) not bloddy impossible like warsoul weps. or b) not making PWI any money.

    I voted yes Merely cause if it stays with only tw being the only way to get it only one person a year would be able to get r9 but jack the dam prices up on them make them
    150k dq points or more that way they're still pretty dam hard to get as well and to hell with the so called undermining the developers or whatever they claim its for they don't do anything to improve nor fix anything in the game so what should we care about their opinion on what they intended.

    P.s. and dont just add them to the cash shop in random sales every now and again they need to be reasonably obtainable throughout game play if you just sell them in the cash shop you might as well put uncannies and raptures and all the TT gold mats and orange mats as well.

    After reading all your qqs.

    The following can be discerned.
    1) Ppl do not want medals in c.s
    2) Ppl want medals back in dq points.

    So, to make everyone happy, simply put it back in dq but make it hard to get.
    Don't try to get off easy with the b.s 50K per b.s.
    You want it available to all, yet not so easily obtainable? 200Kdq points per medal then.

    Also stop qq about "waaaahhhhh not fair, ppl who got it ealier got it cheaper...waaahhhhh"
    Grow up. whats done is done.
    Now try to get yours and **** about what other ppl got.

    The Medal of Glory won't be back in the DQ reward list because Perfect World Entertainment only cares about making money. Thus they will probably return as periodic items in the boutique.

    My question to PWE is... What about the people you screwed over with this move as they got the items believing the Medal of Glory to be a permanent item in the DQ reward section but they are stuck with a bunch of mysterious chips or with General Summer Tokens? Will you reimburse these individuals as a trade via a fair ingame currency for their chips/general summer tokens or reimburse them financially?

    Again as time goes by this company seems to care less for their customers/player base and only care about the money they make.

    yeah rank 9 compared to warsoul is not much difference. Even the rank 9 dagger is really close with warsoul dagger. So Sins that have rank 9 basically have the most powerful dagger in the game. I know this Sin that didnt even cashop for it. And this guy Dragooonz spend thousand of dollars on his warsoul bow. I think dragoonz was ready to chargeback his creditcard so the devs dont wanna **** over the elite cash shoppers in the game. They must obey them because they give too much cash
