    I think I speak on behalf of many when I say there needs to be some serious revamping of the credit reward gears, because some of them just don't even make sense at all. This is in the least; there's other, probably much better suggestions that'll help balance out this server but this is just something to think about.

    1000 credits for a stack of 10 manastones? Really? Yes, obviously the more logical solution would be to farm them in-game since it's really not that hard to get 10 of each. But isn't the point of adding a variety of different items on the CP to have more variety for players wantings to spend their credit on things other than just gear? Who's going to pay $10 for a stack of 10 +15 crit manastones when a mob in Theo drops them at 80% drop rate (about), and especially with the chance of all manastones wiping upon fail. There is no "gambling mindset" here, if that was the idea behind pricing these so high - players are just gonna farm them instead of continuing to pay 10$ or 15$.

    If you want more players donating, then yes more variety of items is the right way to go but that doesn't mean there can be some lousy pricing.

    Also, at the vote reward rate, players will have to vote exactly at 12 hour intervals for 10 days to get... 5 red dyes, or 10 100 Attack Power shards (which apparently is also monetarily equal to a piece of Fenris/Miragent gear) . Yes, good that you even have vote rewards but at least have some items that you can get with even 10 credits. I know an owner who runs a private server with 1 credit items and they work out quite well (obviously nothing crazy, and nothing that can be overpowered if a donator can have a large mass of them ). This will give players much more incentive to vote, seriously. There must be tons of items that not many players if any at all have purchased, why not reduce the credit price of these items so they don't just take up space?

    To me it seems paying $120 (near $200 for all accessories as well) will grant players the ability to play without any skill at all - just mindless spamming and nuking, and unsurprisingly getting kills rather easily. I'm not saying I'm some Aion pro, which of course I am not (if you can even be so good at an MMO), but this is just silly, honestly. Donations should help keep the server running and thriving, not breaking.

    Sorry if this comes off as flame, just throwin in some suggestions.

    Nice contributions guys, seriously. I think the two posts above me really helped bring the attention up to the staff. Way to go.

    Good suggestions. I feel as if the voting system is ok as it is.

    But you do bring up a great point by saying that the amount of manastones needs to be raised, or lower the damn price.

    Bumping the post to see what everyone else thinks. =/

    i think the $1=100 credit point is way unfair at least $1=150 to be reasonable
