Default Lower "price" for ZKey

Now that there's a new title, how about lowering the balth faction needed to get a key? Currently casual PvPers have to spend more time to reach 5000, in contrary to the elitist players. For example, 2500-3000 would be a fair price. This would also draw the casual non-elitist players, who would also have a chance to raise their z-rank. With less balth faction needed, the prices for the keys will fall dramatically and make them more affordable.

the only time i acturally get keys is the 50 reward points i get for prediction...
so...it would take me 3 months to get r1 Zaishen without buying with factions......

btw, sucks to be the ones that has already spent most of their money on Z Keys

keys would be far too easy to get 5k seems fine, however i think this title should be based on your tatal faction you earned and not on opening a chest.

There are enough ways to get balthazar factions.

I think the keys will be too easy to come by if its price was lowered. This would mean that their trading price will also decrease, resulting in increased number of people simply paying for the keys from other players to achieve the title.

It's not all that hard to come across faction, even as a pvp nub (No offense to any-one ;p)
A few rouds of RA is already 1 key, so yeah =/.

Although... /signed, but only on the condition that UW, FOW and DoA are made easier for " casual PvEers" (ursan is not enough!!), the drop rate of ectos increases and you get one green every time you enter an explorable area.

What's wrong with 5k Balth?
Just get ready for some kick arse GvG and you can be an "elitist" player as well.
Or just do UW for an hour and buy some keys ... it's faster imo.

so kinda /notisgned

This is clearly designed to be a very long grind title (for the highest ranks at least) and i don't see any need to change that, 5k balt faction is a good round number for zkeys.

makes me lol xD that just would make ectos even more worthless than they alrdy are and in the end they would move to normal materials not rare ones

a green everytime you enter an area xD nice idea merch your self to the 1'000'000 xD 200g per green

Um no, i think they need to raise it to at least 20k. This isn't a pvp title btw. We don't need more people buying this title anyway.

lol, /notsigned.

You're saying 5k costs more to a casual player than a hardcore PvPer. That's totally off. It's understandable that a hardcore PvPer will earn more faction than a casual player, but lowering the faction needed for a key will give everyone more keys.

You'd be doing nothing to shrink the gap.

How about pvping more? Maybe people should stop sitting on their ass in GToB and play some pvp (low end even) with builds other than ursan.

play more = more faction

play more + learn = play better + more faction

play better = more faction faster


Math Rulez!
