TP orbs / TP fill

I was wondering if it would be possible to add TP orbs to the item shop. They are already in game and should be easy to add. i would think you would use the standard conversion that is already used in game of 10%. for instance a 1,000,000 XP orb is 249 dia so put a 100,000 TP orb in for 249 dia.
I believe this would stimulate diamond sales for Gameforge and would also not give an unfair advantage if you make them gift-able.

an alternative to this. (actually my first idea) would e to put a top up option similar to what is in place for the house energy. i discarded it rather quickly as we have had such trouble with people not happy that they had to buy diamonds for it. however i did mock up a screen shot of the concept.

the idea of matching tp orbs to xp orbs is a good idea, but the math/return is not...well worth it.

Lets say this tp orb is affected by a tp event like how xp orbs are affected by xp events, that orb will only give 500,000 tp for 249 dias (during a 500% tp on combat). That's horrible return.

To put this in perspective, daily resets on happy hour sale cost 20 dias. With proper pots and buffs (zodiac 10%, haiden buff 30%, dual-function 50%, and if u are lucky the tp function pot 20%) ---- thats 110% tp on quests. since the tp pot isnt a regular pot, lets just say 90%
The quest at balu village gives about 63,000 tp. With all these buffs, you are getting ~119,700 tp per daily.
PER DAILY QUEST TICKET, you are getting ~1.2m tp....for 20 dias. (hopefully my math isnt wrong) **not to mention all the tokens and gold you get from spamming dailies**

(and i think the shatterstar quest gives double this tp, just requires lots of farming)

so unless this tp orb can match that, it will not be effective. so definitely needs some adjustement

at least the xp orbs are somewhat worth it to get toons from 1-50 easily during xp events, but tp needed is so massive that 100k @ 249 dias wont leave a dent, however will leave a huge dent in your wallet



perhaps, give tp orbs whenever you purchase xp orbs. honestly i dont know anyone who buys xp orbs from the IS. seems like a ridiculous amount. i dont know thats just me. Perhaps adding a tp orb along with the xp orbs will persuade more ppl to buy orbs. everything does come back to gameforge makign money, so im not sure.

you're right SHAY. that offset is rather harsh for that price.

i would like to see that item available though as i do not have time to do the farming part. i started this game intending to grind and life has not provided the time. there for, i buy levels. i would like to also buy TP.

the price for what is needed should probably be about 25dia for 1mil TP for it to really be worth the money. i just wanted to get the idea out there and see if it got any hits from higher up the food chain.

eidt: To be clear though.... i only buy levels on my off classes that i would have to rely on only dailies for.... the tp would be for my main for the same reason.. i don't have time for the grind....

with the buffs shay was talking about at mixing daily.. you can get an easy 100 million tp in one hour.. and shake of any farming you mightve wanted to ever do :P and proudly strut. i have gotten 185k tp per hand in at mixing daily before with hoe buff ofc
with tp so easy to get nowadays you would never catch me spendin diamonds on tp orbs..

all i do is sell some gear/shell stats/ aa stats/ w/e and buy resets when they come on happy hour for half off with in game gold...
until they fix item shop woes... might be tough now to find someone to sell anything in mass bulk anymore... gg


i dont spend a penny on tp :)

food for thought.

With the newer quest potions released, I was able to get 261k tp per hand in at the mixing daily. Thats without zodiac 10%, or the HoE buff. TP is pretty easy now a days, so many people have 1bill+ on their main class and some off classes too.
