Cryptic points through gameplay

DDO has done something like this, you can earn some of the cash shop points through game play. They have done fantastic (at least in comparison to the P2P days) since they went F2P w/ cash shop. By giving people points through play, they get a taste of what is in the shop, I personally ended up buying a few items after getting enough points to get a "free" lowbie module and having a good time with it.

I'm not talking huge amounts of points....just enough to get one or two of the lower end items while getting to RA5, or getting the points for doing end game stuff at RA5....someone brighter than me would have to figure out the mechanics.

Maybe a very rare drop that can be redeemed for a handful of points, so you would need a good number to get something in the shop. Maybe a bonus for completing certain missions, or at certain level ranks, certain amount of kills for the PvP'ers....several ways to do it.

    I would support that in an instant. It would also help to have something extra to do on RA5
