Just throwin' this out there, but since it costs 500 hp to buy the special pve boost tokens, and they are only usable for a single event. I think a refund for an unused pve boost token would be a great "token" of appreciation for the developers to give us players.

How about it?

  • Huh? They're meant to be used and while they're a bit overpriced they certainly have a huge impact. I always keep them around for fear of accidentally buying more, but 3 of those for +150% and you can beat a lot of nodes that you weren't coming close to winning otherwise.

    Why the hell should they give you money for something you found for free?
    And if you bought them...why didn't you use them?

    Let me rephrase what he said in a better, more polite way...

    Did you buy them with HP? If not, and they were "found" in game, why do you expect a refund?

    As far as PVE special boost, don't they carry over to the next PVE? I could have sworn that they did. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

    They carry over but only for the same event, so Prodigal Sun boosts aren't going to do you any good until the even is run again, which can be a pretty long time.

    The boosts are pretty good I thought, except it's too scary to think about accidentally wasting 500 HP on 5 of them so I never used them after I found out what their cost is.

    Thank you for clarifying that for me and anyone else that comes across this thread. Much appreciated!

    Honestly I meant this to be a light hearted joke, but obviously I have forgotten the state of affairs within these forums.

    I apologize for wording this in a manner so easily misconstrued.

    Sorry ppl I will try to keep my silly ideas to myself from now on. icon_cool.gif

    No need to keep silly ideas to yourself. Just notate them. LOL. Such as [snark], [sarcasm], etc. HA HA icon_lol.gificon_lol.gif

    thanks for that...I looked back on that message and wondered why I'd typed it like such a fudge whistle.

    And now I will be looking for ways to inject fudge whistle into day to day conversation.

    HP is not money and can be found just as free, so the logic kinda fails.

    Though I agree with the WTH should part. icon_e_smile.gif

    You can by covers for 1250HP and sell for 500 ISO. The game economy is just like that. And it's not the problem that would make the 100 most painful list.

    I used some of the Heroic variant -- it was sitting at 12, enough to not use the last one to be on the safe side icon_e_smile.gif. This event produced just a single boost though.
