I had an idea and wanted to know what you all think. Do you think it would be cool is OS gave us the option to purchase Armor and Weapons from the spark store, and those weapons came with stat points that you could distribute how you see fit? An example would be a level 30 item that came with 30 stat points or a level 80 item that came with 80 stat points. I personally would buy this as I usually find **** when out playing. Let me know and maybe if enough people like the idea OS might pay attention. Thanks.

I don't think the points should be the same amount as the level of the weapon, but half as usual. Otherwise, I like the idea.

Would they be bound?
Would they maintain the normal limits per stat (ie, 1/2 level for most levels)?
Would they be permanent or x day?

It would be cool if you could sell the item when you're done with it. It would also have to be permanent I wouldn't pay for a 30 day item as it usually takes longer to level 10 levels, especially when you're in the 80's like me.

80 points for a level 80 weapon/armor would be appropriate in my opinion, so long as the stat limit on each individual stat is the same as in game, 1/2 of the item's level. With this, you could have +40 on your two favourite stats! Yummy!

I like and don't like it ^^
Downside would be that everyone would be able to have awesome gear, there would be no challage in finding/buying great gear anymore, otherwise it's nice ^^

This kinda goes into the "pay to be a god" imbalance that the cash shop already causes ._.
Not that I mind for PvE, but in PvP... thats a whole different story.

Some of the fun in this game is hunting for greens with awesome stats if something like this were added to the store it would strip the fun from this game even further.

depends i mean if i could change the color of a costume that would be good as for the stats i dont think that would be a good idea unless they fix the imbalance in the game

I love the idea. :D But don't make it tradable or it'll ruin the game's economy.

I hate the idea, I worked too hard to make in game money so I could by godly weapons and armour, and now you just want to give them to everybody. If you want a godly wep, earn some in-game money and buy it. And don't tell me you can't run a store because you don't want to pay to have your computer on, then go out a waste real money to buy SC to get a godly wep(if you can afford SC for a godly, then you can afford to leave your computer on to run a store).
If Outspark implemented a SC item like weps that come with X amount of stat points that you distribute to your liking, I would definetly quit. The only thing that saves my character from the PKr's, in a crit suit, is the fact that I have godly weps and armour, and most of them don't.
Terrible idea.

This has got to be about the worst idea I've heard of in a long, long time. The entire concept of this game is that it's supposed to be a commerce based MMORPG. Which means that you make your in game money to afford good items, and spend the time in game to find them to purchase.
So many people seem to want to just power level and find 'the easy way' to get items to speed their way through the game. Okay, you race your way to the level cap and then what? Quit? Hang around bragging? Or bully the people just trying to play the game honestly? This game wasn't meant to be played fast as much as strategically/smart.
I am a SC user, but let's keep things reasonable. For those that just want to spend rl money so they can race their way to the end of a game just go out and buy something for your Playstation or X-Box will you and quit trying to change this game into some distorted online version of 'pay to play' Final Fantasy.

Okay how about this everyone, when you pass your one year aniversary of playing fiesta you get the ability to purchase an item from the spark store that you can customize. Either stats, color, etc.
ajayyyy

I'd say no, simply because it would just make the people with more sc stronger then those who don't have sc.
Think about it though, lets just say outspark did put that option up. Some rich person, let's say hes a mage in game, would buy an 8x top with 45 end 45 int 45 dex/spr and +9 it. Same with their pants, boots and hat. That wouldnt make sense would it?
Sidenote ; As if we don't have enough perma charmed noobs running around.

if everyone can buy good greens via cash, then the ingame market for them would be destroyed. People will buy sc stuff regardless of prices (unless its really crazy like $999). Look at enhancement items and weapon skins!
