Title: Zylon Shop Discounts - 10/31-11/10
Post by: Allie on October 31, 2013, 02:17:09 AM
We'll be having an event starting Halloween day (10/31) and ending a week after our in-game events complete.
For the entire week, all items in the Zylon Shop have a discount of a full 50%. This means an item that normally costs 2000 ZC will cost 1000 for the rest of the event.

In addition to this, we've added a few new items we hope you guys like. Give us some feedback if you'd like some more of these kinds of items.

Remember, you have until 11/10 to get such a large discount on these items. 114 ZC for each trans coupon, 46 ZC per snowball. Enjoy.

Take a look at the stats.

Unfortunately, that would ruin its rarity for those who currently have a permanent version.
This way, you can enjoy its looked for a reasonable price.

...I know they have different stats I already edited my post before any of you posted...

I too wish there was perm versions of the liger, or even kowbat head

what do you mean ruin its rarity allie? I know what you mean but like you released perm jura, perm metowing, and other rare perms in zylon shop before..it didn't stop you back then.. but why now?

This is very true though if the price were similar to jura, aside from myself I could only think of 1 or 2 other people who have the means to buy it and actually would off the top of my head. Time limited items that don't last more than a year are usually undesirable imo though at the current price of 50% off I can't argue that everything isn't a great value  ;D

100% of these items are untradeable. They ruined the rarity (in terms of economic value) of nothing.

so you are saying because they are untradeable, they wont ruin the rarity?

so why not release perm liger and perm kowbat head and make them untradeable?

For starters, that would make the current perm ligers untradeable, would piss off everyone who has it.
Second, people who are willing to buy perm items for a large price are probably willing to buy them in-game, thus losing potential buyers, hurting the economy.

rather then make the existing perm liger untradeable as well, why not make a new perm liger that isn't tradeable, and put it in zylon shop.

then everybody wins? and you can make more money?

no make new perm ligers would be so stupid. 30 day is fine they are suppose to be rare.

according to Allie's theory of untradeability, it wouldn't ruin the rarity if it was untradeable

I'm with cooky on this one. An untradeable version would make money from time to time and honestly not to sound smug or disrespect, but you don't see that many people with perm jura out there, so the rarity of perm liger would pretty much maintain it's status as an exclusive item.  It's an easy way to pull money for zylon as well.

no it would ruin the look know that everyone wearing it may or may not be untradable. I agree with allie putting perm would just F*** everything up.

Second part of my post was in respect to that.
Such items are worth an INCREDIBLE amount of gigas in-game. If they're willing to dish out half a wallet full of money for it, they're willing to dish out an incredible amount of gigas.
Those who are not willing to, are more likely to not.

That said, the demand for these items will decrease, as those who would be willing to buy it are buying it using an alternate method.

Don't get me wrong, I would love the money. But unlike some other F2P games, we also respect our in-game economy. Otherwise, we might aswell sell everything in the game.

And maybe increase the drop rates for the miasmas :D?

I'm extremely comfortable with the drop rates this term. We used a different drop code that i designed back when we made a zylon runescape server. It works much, much more comfortably.

nanak, just cause someone got luckier then you doesn't mean it needs to change

it uses a RNG (random number generator) I believe, so its random everytime and if I recall correctly the chances are less then 1% of getting a perm. Meaning on AVERAGE, if you get 100 drops none will be perm. Those who got it on one of their early tries is simply luckier then you. Don't give up and complain that it should be made easier. Its random.

Yes you can. You don't need to ask for it cuz it is alrdy in zylon shop. You can buy a perm liger from somebody in game by selling your 70$ in the form of membership or zylon coins, you can do this to Gather the gigas and buy it/buy it directly from somebody.
