Everything besides the EotN skins decreased 40%. Thus, it's probably safe to conclude that the 18 rp EotN armors would have been priced at 30.

Heres the link to the old price list

This is update is not helping anyone unlock squat, there is no vehicle in this game to generate that type of zcoin in less than two years.

Also the npc does not give you a choice between paying in zcoins or reward points, but takes the reward points automatically.

It doesn't work like that, its the same as buying pve armor, its customized to your character. So if you delete that sin you also delete the armor. If you re-roll a sin later on, you would have to go and purchase the armor from tolkano all over again.

Bear in mind that if you have unlocked 50 normal armor pieces to achieve the exotic armor tier, that will always be available.

Weapons on the other hand can be put onto heros and transfered from character to character, which is helpful.

I'm talking about the fancy armors not the weapons where they have three teirs. But where is someone going to get 1000 rps? A gvg tourny takes hours and you only get 15 for participating. If you are not top 16 gvg what can you do?

You are welcome.

Oh, and Lemming isn't trolling you. He is being polite and bringing out your intelligence... Or lack there of.

Fancy weapons definately used to be 50 RPs.

I'm not sayin, jus sayin.

The spear is now customized for your second PvP character.

This only works between PvP characters!
