Runes of Magic US / AU

(with most recent patch, mento cap has been increased from 3,000 to 4,000)

Has a player suggestion ever been followed by RW? I don't see the point. We ask for things to be changed all the time to improve the game and nothing happens but same old stuff.


anyways.. idea is nice. Would make farming mems more worth the time also.

They should just remove the cap on mems, never saw a point of having caps on currency anyways. Why P-shells still at 1000, well maybe in 2 years they will get it at 2000 lol

Coming up with suggestions is easy (and fun) part. Implementing them is work. Sure, players can shoot of plenty of ideas, but besides minor stuff, it is not likely to end on todo list. And as someone who spent last couple months trying to implement really bad design that users suggested, users are very often clueless about what goes in implementation logic.

That said, can we haz Varanas-Dalanis snoop port? It is long past time, and the principle of linking hub zones of each continent is followed elsewhere. Or can we put phirius tokens in currency bag? It is a very common currency, should be there. Both minor suggestions, should be easy for RW to do.

I don't often disagree with you Pinkhat, but I personally think this would be a bad idea. They would probably put a cap on it which would be catastrophic for those of us who have a chest or 2 full of them. Unless, of course, they implemented it like they did for PoMs..

Here is a suggestion that could be helpful in some ways or not, Have a easier way to get POMS for those people who can not get them due to the being to weak or other people butting in to get the POMS. Have a NPC sell POMS with different currency like Honor points, Dreamland points, mems & p coins



25k Honor points= 2 POMS

10k Dreamland points= 2 POMS

36k P coins= 5 POMS

5k Mems= 3 POMS


Edit: fixed the numbers above


Pro's and Con's to this proposal or suggestion



Pro's
Must faster way to collect
More doable for low lvls
Faster to get POM Gear

Con's
Spamming
Over using
Over Powered


Now to fix these con's what they should do is to have a exchanged limit of 3 per two months. with this it should be easier and not so OP as it sounds. Please leave your thoughts about this & please no trolling qqing or flaming because this should be a constructive feedback on how to better the getting the POM system

Not trolling or flaming... just simplifying the math.


1 month + 30 days = basically 2 months. Why not just say 2 months or 60 days? Or to simplify it... one pull per 20 days.

50k P coins = 500 days of dailies. Assuming no resets, and that's nearly 2 years without doing any Minigames. Add to that, coin stacks cap at 1k... so thats 50 inventory spots. A bit too much, so simplify this as well... 5k coins = 1 PoM.

so my math is wrong or something?

Actually a little off topic, I find it odd that P tokens are the only currency not in any other format like diamonds, mems, gold etc. Why is this anyway?

But back onto topic,

I'd like to see more ways to get poms, but at the same time I feel as if what could happen is allowing for the easier versions of the boss to drop a lower amount of poms in comparison to the hard mode ones, just like mems when it comes to dungeons, instead of changing different currencies for a rarer currency. By having the easier versions drop a lower amount of poms would allow for lower end guilds to get some poms, but problem with this is perhaps gearing in the first place for this as well, there needs to be a starting point for poms like there are mems, but it only seems to be events that everyone can even partake in getting poms at all though.

However, the high cost it would take with the p tokens is too absurd as pointed out by purre, and agree with the fix though, if this sort of thing were to go through, it might just make the game a little more accessible or at least stats a little more accessible to more people along with pom gear being more commonly pulled. Regardless what happens I'm all for making more stats and/or gear available

Glad I wasn't the only one that was like: "wtf" to the 50k ptokens == 10 poms xD lol

One thing to note: for lower end guilds, unless they can solo rt normal very quickly, it's going to take forever for them to farm 10k mems. 1 run of rt norm gives about 70 mems (give or take a few). So, 10000 / 70 == ~143 full runs of RT normal. If they manage to make each run 5 minutes long (from start to finish), then it would take them 715 minutes to farm those mems. And that's not including if you spend any for possibly the accessories. Imo, it would take a lower end guild longer than just 5 minutes for a full run. This option would take forever and would only, mainly, benefit endgamers more than lower end players. So, Instead, I suggest this: 2k mems == 1 pom, 5k mems == 3 poms, 10k mems == 7 poms. Sure, it would help endgamers the most since 10k would give the most poms, but 2k mems is much more manageable for lower end guilds to get as compared to 10k.

Offtopic: Please make honor points not have a cap. Kthx >.>

hey my numbers might be extreme a bit but hey someone got to figure out a way to get POMS easier. so since my numbers are off may someone give a range of numbers for the cost of POMS?

proofs are fine as they are, cant improve upon a terrible system more then it is already, bosses are there to farm, with an event every 6 months or so.

Cenre the hole point of this thread is to make it more accessible to get POMS with farming world bosses. yes it will create problems but someone has to bring it up

personally, i'd rather they just phase proofs out. simply don't release another proof set, and adjust the other pulls/drops to accomodate this(fill in the gear holes).


however, if that isn't going to happen, just use noony's suggestion for a global currency exchanger.


also, unbind all currencies and/or implement a currency trading feature in the AH. kthxbye.

countduke were you around for the last two pom events they had?

If you put the work in you can get hundreds... during those events.. if you can play 24/7, some people had thousands... there are some that still are selling them as of yesterday from events because they had so many....

how much easier do you want to make it? lol.

And i would agree poms should die. the game was fine without them.

Bring back good stat pulls with mems like old days... i knew people that would run DoD for days at a time, just to keep trying to roll for stats they needed.

Offtopic: so this got merged? ok then

Ontopic: i only been to one POM event which involes the black bars idk about the other one but i do have black bars left from last pom event

1000 PoM's still isn't enough to roll 45 of the orange stat that you need. And that is the problem with proofs. Especially since they keep freaking raising the price of every proof piece while all the worldbosses keep dropping less and less proofs.

Mages need at minimum 3 controls/piece, and I don't know how many of you melee have ever tried to roll a control, but we don't get the luxury of also getting the usable dex/pa. We get the BS stat wis/ma. On top of getting screwed out of instance drops because Detonation/Vengeance drops all the time while Control is nearly never seen.

They could do a permanent proof event that is there all the time and let people spam the hell out of it forever I really wouldn't care. Proofs are, except perhaps the plussing system, one of the worst parts of RoM.

Well gear up and go do world bosses, learn how to do them, learn the strat. POM event like they did helped a lot of people but a lot of the noobs were just selling POM's instead of improving their toons. What is it worth to have 500M gold when you can't even clear instances or be of any use in runs?

Quoted from "Countduke"

25k Honor points= 2 POMS

this no just to easy to exploit

Quoted from "Countduke"

10k Dreamland points= 2 POMS

maybe for this


36k P coins= 5 POMS

way too many p-tokens for ingame item

Quoted from "Countduke"

5k Mems= 3 POMS

way too many mems for ingame item

It's actually better for midgame players to sell proofs they get from proof events rather than use them. Midgamers shouldn't be going for top stats. 500M can do alot more for them to gear/run higher things than the couple decent stats 500M worth of proofs would get them.
