Vote for Points rewards
I can see a lot of players are concerned about the Vote for Points, I originally intended to only announce the reward June 1st (when it starts), but getting some input before that can't hurt, in fact it can only help, right?

Since I'm giving everyone a chance to express their opinion before officially deciding the rewards, I hope this thread will be kept respectful and flame-free.

I'm placing this in the poll section although it does not yet have a poll, but eventually it will.


Original plan:

I find the game is lacking in nice mid / lower headgear, we have some but not that many, official servers has more, mostly in their Cash shop and I thought voting would be a nice way of making them available here. It adds more creativity in looks, but some of them also have desirable little bonus.

I chose a dozen mid/lower headgears so far, and I have planned to release a different 1 each month of the year, available 4 different ways:
  • With Vote for Points, only during said month
  • Via donation, only during said month (don't go hating, no one is being forced to donate, it's only 1 option available)
  • Sold at the fairy auction of said month (just 1)
  • Purchased with zeny in game via a npc (sink!) some months later than the 3 above ways, only for that month

Some of the ones I have my eyes on:

Ninja's Scroll [0 def, Increase MATK by 1%]

Peco Peco Ears [1 def, AGI + 1, MDEF + 2]

Black Glasses [1 def, INT + 1, MDEF + 2]

Naughty Fairy [1 def, Perfect Dodge + 3]

Fish Mouth [0 def, 5% chance to get Fresh Fish on kill, Fresh Fish recovery rate + 25%]
[Image: 8ys4d1.jpg]

So for example, 1 Ninja's Scroll would be sold at fairy auction in June, and from June 1st to June 30th it could also be voted/donated for. Then from August 1st to August 31st players would be able to buy Ninja's Scroll for 1 Million Zeny at the GM assistant npc in Prontera. Come september it would only be available in game by purchasing it from other players who got their hands on it, up until June/August of 2011.

Addendum:

Originally the plan was to leave the gear bonus intact, aka what official server have decided. That would result in some month having hats that everyone want to get their hands on and other months unpopular hats.

"Official Server" is not always synonymous with balance, so we could also alter some of the stats on those hats to make them a bit more appealing if they are useless and a bit more reasonable if they are overpowered. But it's icky because not everyone has the same view of what's reasonable and what isn't (while official bonus can simply be blamed on Gravity! XD)

So basically, this what I have in mind so far. I'm pretty set on the idea of having mid/lower headgears and Ninja's Scroll is the one I chose for June, whether we got for "official" bonus or "revised for heRO" is still not decided.

Suggestions as to what could also be available with vote points are most welcome. And I want to address the ones that I've seen suggested so far:
  • Donation rewards (gb/obb/opb) -> Probably not, those can be obtained in game already anyway and they are rather abundant due to gear dropping them or event.
  • GM Service -> Maybe, thanks for the suggestion.
  • Consumable like those in Muspel -> Maybe, thanks for the suggestion.
  • Cookies -> I wont have time for heRO itself if I'm baking all the time, so I'll pass on this one. I did however promise that cookies would be offered at the same time that the real-life heRO meeting is happening, so on that specific occasion I'll bake a bunch, but I don't want to be doing that all year long -_-
  • Ingredients for quests -> Hmmm no, go hunt them! Or make use of the Bulletin Board ^_^;
  • Light potions -> Those will be obtainable via the Death Zone PVP mode once it's added.
