great Idea, this I could get behindProposal: Allow the character to atrophy skills at a rate proportional to the IP generated from xp earned. For instance if it takes a character 4 million xp to get from level X to level Y and that 4 million xp generates a total of 20,000 IP points, that character could effectively atrophy one or more skills to a degree and gain back a total of 20K IP within that level. Couple of bad things, since the number of IP gained is based on title level rather than actual level, the closer you come to each new title level, the longer it would take to atrophy a skill as it takes more xp to generate the same IP within that title level (not that big of a deal). The other bad thing is, not sure how to apply this for level 200s. You might even take it one step further and associate a cost as Superslag has suggested.
while buying ipr is a great idea i think tokens would be a better exchanged for ipr points we have excessive amounts of them and if you need more you whore up more missions say 500-700 tokens for 1 ipr
not everyone wants to spend all day or has the time to blitz 40mil to buy ipr and not everyone has had the opportunity to sell those uber items that get you a instant 200mil :/
but some way of earning ipr would be alot better than fc just giving them to us
Sorry I dont agree, there has to be a benifit to the game somehow with IPR's if they are handed out. Only way I can see this is to drain the excess money at obnoxious rates. Getting 200 million is easier than 700 tokens fyi , and when all the money gets soaked up, there will BE NO WAY to make an easy 200 million.... that is good... and then they can adjust the "fee" for IPR more.
Its gotta COST YOU SOMETHING YOU VALUE to work at all if it is going to be done. How much do you "value" your EXTRA tokens? umm, not at all I would guess, they dont do anything for you.
in the end it people should just deal with it and NOT USE IPR TO TWEEK TWINK CHARS... or not complain when they aint got no more.
but we all know that is my opinion
(nothin against you gwend, I like your posts, and respect your advice, we just dont agree on this topic)
