I think this area is really lacking in incentives.
Sure a normal premium account is great as it is but should there be more options to buy with days of premium so the server can get a little extra running money.
I just worry about what if one day I log on and I get a 404 not found because we all ran out of money.
These all have probably been suggested before so don't get all mad at me I'm just throwing some top of my mind suggestions.
10 days premium for a 10% luck boost for 10-30 days
10 days premium for a random stat boost for 10-30 days only use able after expiration.
Maybe hidden items only user knows about like
100 days premium for a cloaking device or something that when your sieged for a takeover it nulls it 1 time then is useless...imagine the looks on the faces of the opposing clan when the message says somehing like "Your troops marched through the wilderness for days on end with bloodlust in their hearts and stomachs devoid of nutrients when you came upon a barren rock with neither friend nor foe to be found. You begin the arduous task of marching back towards the line of no return your crossed halfway to your lost destination"
Idk come up with some ideas in this thread...if anything for fun just to be creative. Show your desire to better an already great game.

Lmao would we all.
Everybody would be trying for P+5 items and getting them for the sake of 50days prem.
Now say 30-40days perm for the next ONE upgrade to be 100% would be tempting.

i would pay that time and time again not a problem at all
id have UBER gear within an hour LOL
if this came into effect, it should be limited to how many times it can be used to say like twice a month
otherwise richer players would just take off and pwn the living hell out of the whole server with immense ease

i agree!
once ppl can pay for even 1 free upgrade it will ruin the game.
how many ppl in the 1st day even of that been implemented would suddenly have perfect an p+1 items??
it would take away the most challenging part of the game
the merging
gathering stones to waste in ritual and to throw at rng for been a numpty
an so on.....

You're all talking about 100% boost....I never said anything like that. Oh noes that would destroy the game.
Maybe 10 random stats across board for 10 days worth for 30 days. Use able only once a month. Would get lwr level members to possibly utilize.
And never anything more than 10 luck...Lord no 100%

Ofcourse it will, many games use options to pay for things like "points" as a way for thr Admins to secure more money as the rich will just scrounge their way to the top

perhaps you could buy badges with premium!
of course, in order to keep it within reason, that option can be available after you are like 10 levels more that the level needed to start the expo. in that way, frustration can be gone with some precious (for the devs) euros!

First, no, its not a joke (almost, at least!)
If you are level 50 and still dont have white badge or lvl 71 without noble badge, the option of like 180 days of premium for badge will sound better than still trying.
Second, your post is not adding anything, only spamming/trolling.

Whole idea of ingame profits for real money is just stupid.
I know that everyone got problems with some things in game, and few ppl [or % of ppl playing] would like to just pay for resolve. But it would be too easy. I wouldn't enjoy the game, when I work hard to get something, and someone can just BUY same result. Even if it cost 1 milion premium days it's just unfair compared to ppl who want to play for free [or just for premium]. Badges now, what's later? Place in ranking? Or resurecting mobs in location?
C'mon, it's just a game.
People who have too much money can visit this website
Or just buy WOSP heart like Evangelion and CESARZ on r1UK

How about i give 180 days of prem to become "The Dark Lord" and go into ActIII lol |
How about them finally releasing it lol.
I didn't expect anything out of this I just wanted to open a dialogue to get the feelings of the game over long standing members and newbies alike.
Personally there can be other options available that don't ruin the game. We just need to come up with them.
The overall consensus is that stat boosts for cash would ruin the game.
What about random donations?

Idk random donations without buying permium...I know don't make sense but maybe some people REALLY love this game and want to give more than a few dollars to help out the server

From Premium account -> [ EXTEND PREMIUM ] -> International Transfer:
| quote: |
| The transfered amount differs from the one given above [30 PLN]*. In this case we reserve the right not to return the discrepancy as it'll be treated as a donation. If the discrepancy is less than 9 PLN then it'll always be treated as a donation. |
*added by me, but that's the amount "given above"
So if you really want to donate BW, just pay more for premium

The problem with adding new premium services is that we may end up having a game only for rich kids who can afford to spend a lot of money on it. I don't think it's a good design to allow people to get to 1st place on rankings just by spending money. That's why we'd rather premium services were making the game more "convenient" and not easier. I see that the borderline might be thin sometimes but you're not likely to see for example "upgrades for money" feature.

Life is by definition unfair, and people with more money than others will always get the advantage over them.
I have a lot of issues with this game, and I have a lot of issues with how the dev team behaves on subjects relating to marketing, business ethics, etc.
But there is one thing which I do not have a problem with : their current level of premium content. More premium options giving you an edge on others ingame would simply be ridiculous.
