Couple ideas

[Marius]

don't make a map that would be possible to spam. If a well organized, well equipt, with good communication team could do the same map more than once, I don't see the problem.

If they either put in all the fast maps or all the "bad" slow maps in I think you will find we will end up picking just a small group of them just because they are safer or just quicker. Look at the old Frost Haven (I think that's the right name) the spot was good but you could only have like 4 ranged shooting the bots before they came to the cades otherwise you just end up double peeking each other.

 

On the token side, I am happy that some people liked the idea, although I see some of you have your own interpretation of it. I would suggest making it more simple. Prince would drop a normal level token instead of dragon axe or aurora blade, Ragnar would drop a hard level token instead of his legendary drops and so on. In my point of view, legendaries shouldn't become craftable, there should be a prestige to loot a legendary, the chances of looting a token shouldn't be too high. 

I think tokens solve more than one thing. 
First of, it balances the prices not only for the highest tier items but also for a bit lower tier like a stag bow. I don't see how tournaments solve this if people are not willing to sell.

Second, it makes the game a bit fairer. To loot a high tier item you could play once a month or another example one person can loot 2 legendaries while other would loot none. Tokens would reduce the luck factor that is too big, I believe, although it would still be a big factor. To loot a 10m worth token is fantastic but to loot a 100mil worth item is a bit too much.


Although I see one potential problem. If someone loots a token and puts a thread "want to sell a rag token", 90proc of NI people are going to send him a buy offer. With the high demand, it could increase the value of token too high. To solve this, I think we need more types of tokens, like: rag bow token, rag body armour token and so on.

So I like the idea of having 2 different types of tokens but 3 seems a bit weird adding that cav would be a 4th? Maybe your idea would work if you just made it 2 one for orange then the other for red and you can get eather all all modes in differnt values of 1x or 5x etc.

Tournaments do solve the problem just in a different way. Like there have been many times in game where I will say I hope someone loots this (x) but in some cases, I have dicks or just rich people that say... "I would not sell to you". thinking I would get mad or some shit. What they don't know is it still happy that it dropped as we have 1 more in the market and whether it takes 1 week or year+ the chance of someone selling it just got higher. This is why im fine with the tokens in the tournaments but what the dev's I guess just don't get is most people think about there wealth before there dream loot so we will find not many people picking idk Steel Stinger even tho it's what they want. That's why I try to push my idea's of changing the loot system even tho they have added? the tournaments back

One more thing is the value of tokens as that will have a inpacked on real values eg is studded going to cost the same as a helm? Is a hero locked thing going to cost the same as an all heroes thing? Whoever sets this price you will have people not happy in some area. Also, would you make the tokens tradeable? Too many questions about an idea that will probably not happen sorry to say.

Well you could be right with the type of tokens. My idea is tokens itself, I do believe that the details that I suggested are not perfect and could be improved.

Speaking of tournaments, well if I win a tournament I could ask for rupturers. Yes one more set of rupturer in the game would make it less valuable in the market but I dont see how it would effect, for example, pike of kings price. And lets imagine, that I am the only having rupturers and I win them again, I could keep it to myself to remain the only owner thus for some time the value wouldnt change.
