In-Game Dia Earn

Basically a way to earn diamonds in the game.

One way would be to make them like mementos, at 1-2 Dias per Boss (1 dia on normal mode; 2 on hard mode). Instances have to be HoS or higher, same as memento instances.

Another way is to have a memento to dia exchange rate, at about 50-100 mementos being 1 dia.

This would allow us F2P players to get our hands a on a few dias. This might also bring down dia prices from sellers and the cost of gear as well.

They already have the diamond sellers ingame, but they are not activated on the US servers.

1 diamond per boss = I farm DoD all day even more than I do now.

Lol, 1-2 dias a boss when people can solo-farm DoD first boss every 2 minutes? Not going to happen.

There's already surveys. Activated diamond NPCs would be nice, though.

If the everyone remembers, Froggie used to like doing bounties on certain bosses and the server w/ the best kill rate won some special event...

Something like a diamond bounty could spur some interest in the game:

1. Froggie would post a weekly bounty hunt for some boss
2. The top 3 guilds per server in the kill list would get diamonds corresponding to the difficulty of the bounty.. ie, Madman would be 2 dias tops. lol vs. last boss in ToSH being worth, I dunno 10 dias
3. The list would be kept secret to prevent Merc'ing ( which will prolly happen regardless )
4. @ the end of the week, each member of the top 3 guilds on the list would get their diamond rewards in the mail & afterwards the final list would be posted to the web page

w/ the rewards being small enough, it would be a fun mini-game & for a lot of ppl the first taste of diamonds

I actualy like the above. But some guilds will abuse it while others will not even be able to do it. I am not gonna argue about the gear required for some of the instances that is for another topic, but that will be the limiting factor.
Plus it would have to be settup so that the bosses are in raid instances that have to reset daily. Otherwise the above can be majorly abused.

numerous games do that, and yes first month or so that happens, but then people get tired of just farming same thing over and over again and quit doing that, what fun is it to have the dias to buy stuff but not actually enjoying the game, i say thats lack of life, and someone farming it over and over again will agree.

not everyone would sit there and just farm all day long for weeks so that actually could be a good idea to make.

Oh but wait, I'm not actually since on Reni we already have 2-3 VERY obvious DOD botters' they'll be bringing in 3k dias / 24 hrs just going AFK mode.

Botters on Reni?? noo really?? LMAO reported them and nothing was ever done to them, still there and going strong. I don't want to report anymore because nothing changes. And takes 3 support service answer, confirmation and then they close the thread because they can't say what action will be taken. Meaning they do nothing, but it's all good, killing the game slowly.

Thx

Mentos = diamonds, i like that.
Bosses dropping diamonds = Bad idea.

'Till RoM can get off their lazy asses and do something about the botter problem, any sort of farmable creature/boss/instance will become farmed 10 times harder than they are now if we let bosses drop diamonds.

Also, whats is up with all these threads with people asking for the most outlandish things?

We actually do earn diamond-equivalents from the game play - the phirius tokens. Sure, they are more limited than diamonds, and can only buy a portion of the items that can be bought with diamonds. Nonetheless, a lot of necessities are in phirius shop. Back when FA standardized the prices, they set them at 20 tokens per diamond, which means you get 5 dia equivalent a day.

Now, perhaps one can argue that this is too flat a scheme - you can not get more than 100 a day with few rare exceptions of couple 15-token quests, and lucky turns at COT giving you more than you spent. But, you are still getting a form of dias or some minor item shop items from your gameplay.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

Hmmm 1k tokens for a puri... 2k tokens for an advanced bind lifter... ugh no thanks.
I don't think I like spending 10 days just to get a puri or 20 days for a freaking ABL.

On another note, 50 mementos for 1 diamond is ridiculously low. That's like what , a little bit more than 2 DoD runs for ONE diamond. Lol... maybe 5 mementos for 1 diamond would be more like it.
