Phirius Token shop

Now that F2P players have been punished because they were unable to buy daily reset tickets using Phirius Tokens and totally missing the Triple XP weekend.


Any plans on putting the NPC in game real life soon? Or is going to be ROM soon?

We already have an NPC in Class Hall that sells just 3 items for Phirius Tokens. Just they are not what the players want.
Two of the items are almost totaly useless. and the Third item, "Acrane Charges" are triple the price of what the item shop was.

Just a suggestion.. Could the missing Phirius Token items be added to this existing NPC?
Even as a temporary fix ? Just give us the items we really miss..

My list would include.. Transport stones, Charges (at regular price), Daily reset tickets, normal bind lifters & puri's
Im sure there is more.. but this is what I miss most.. I want to save my diamonds for what I deem more improtant items
(that I never bought with p.coins) such as plussing jewels, runes, advanced bind lifters, transform potions etc.


Please fix this asap. I feel its hurting the comunity. And we all dont want our player base to diminish any further.

They did say in a patchnotes of last week or the week before that, that they are working on it as too implement said NPC's in the game. No matter how many posts we make, it won't change much, we just gotta be patient. :beer:

Every time it is mentioned it is the next patch. As you never get to the next patch because once it arrives it is the current patch. The plan is to just keep saying the next patch but never do it.

I cant find where it says "next patch" what I remember reading. It was an upcoming patch that was mentioned.

Can anyone provide the link ?

Well this is why I suggested a temporary fix.

The NPC already exsists!

Just wanted to know if it was "soon" was going to be real life soon or ROM soon?

Perhaps it's going to be abandoned like the chaos weapons vendors, reputation title, and OS honor vendors.

Let me just add here that there haven't been *any* patches made to the game since these NPC's were announced and the new Item Shop implemented.

I believe the plan is to get the NPC's ingame sometime in the next few weeks, but I cannot be certain and I do not really know for certain either.

I just don't get it, I mean a lot of players both free to play and ones that buy diamonds use tokens for mount 7 day speed pot, daily resets, transport runes and so on and yet you remove the only way to use tokens to get these items and now are saying it could be weeks (Anyone whos been playing for awhile knows weeks could be months in this game) before a npc is added. How can you do this and not think people wont get mad and leave? I guess I could understand it if game was thriving and loosing some players would not affect game play for others or put a dent in Runewakers pockets but with the game the way it is this just seems like yet another stupid choice by the people that run this game and stupid choices is why the game is in state it is. :(

They took the tokens out of the item shop when they redesigned it deliberately, they could have just as easily left them in. Then they have to create a new NPC to handle them which should have been done before they closed the old shop. What in this shows any concern for the players at all?
It was just another way to show us how little they care about what we need and use. Any organization with any concern for its customers at all would have had all this taken care of and working properly long before they closed the old shop. With planning like this it is no wonder the population is diminishing.

Looking at back at the timeframe for merging servers, the best guess for the
Next few weeks in ROM time is around December 2015 or January 2016

Both of those dates have passed. Did I miss something?

The reason why they aren't touching the phirius tokens in the new item shop is that they do not want to touch the mess of looking through a database to extract phirius tokens from your bag while you are playing.

Would you trust gameforge to go through your bags with a script that they wrote in tandem to the new IS removing a set amount of items from your bag to pay for it? The funniest thing is that if these were set to a currency in the currency tab, it would've been easier to do for them.
A real sysadmin knows how to change the time.
If you make the same mistake while trying to make up for the previous one, you are doing something wrong.

As much as I'd love to say I offer consulting services, the scope of things broken is too large.

The major question that no one wants to answer is: why was the new Item shop dumped on us before it was ready? There were many threads about the problems not to mention the token NPC being missing entirely (was it not ready or did they just forget about it?) Standard procedure would be to make sure everything was working and ready long before working things are replaced. What would have been the great problem with running the old item shop for a few more weeks or months before rushing blindly to replacing it with a poorly working half mess? It looks like someone had been given a deadline and just didn't bother finishing it and just put out what ever mess they had at the moment.
It is not like they don't know how to do something and delay it until it works, the merger was well done because they delayed it a few times before releasing it and it went rather well. What was the huge rush to get this mess into place?

Omg the amount of people complaining and you know what ? It's your own fault. They said they were removing the token IS and to use your tokens before they did. If you didn't that is your fault not theirs. I don't normally defend GF and probably the biggest whiner about broken stuff in the game, but I am siding with them on this.
