Only problem I'd have is what Baron suggested - a new player could in theory buy lvl52 and max gear for cash in one shot. TBH I don't like that but at the same time I'm not sure there's a realistic issue with it. Maybe they won't understand the basics of the mod but really there's plenty of people I've seen put in many 100's of hours who still don't seem to grasp these concepts (yes, you have to build cades before Thor or the run will probably wipe). Jokes aside, I'd like to think our small community is welcoming enough to teach the basics of the mod to new players who want to learn regardless of their level or what gear they may have bought.
For some people the fun is in the grind. For others the fun is in using their maxed out gear and being as powerful as possible. I personally hate lvling a new hero especially when I know that sweet sweet t4/hero gear is just sitting in my inventory begging to be used. There was a time where I loved the grind but as the years have gone on and real life has gotten more time consuming it's hard to justify spending all the time to level new classes in a mod that I've already put thousands of hours into.
It's not like this is an uncommon concept either. Many MMOs include some sort of level skip option, especially ones that have been out for a long time and contain multiple expansions.
I don't really get that argument.
What is the difference between a player who bought the hero on day one plus the gear to go along with it and a player who leveled his one character in a weeks time to level 52 but still bought the gear anyway.
That person would have 0 idea what to do when the other would have some basic idea.
However, If that did happen well how did it happen? This noob paid 40 euros to get some shit in a game he's never played?
So really if you put a fair price to it like 750k+ (1lvl > 52lvl) I don't see any new person doing it all at once. One thing to think about is let say you play Ni for the 1st time normally what i say is save till you are tr4 then buy gear but now I would say put all the cash into XP so you can get to hard and rag faster. - So it gets you more gold/etc in the long run.
