4.Will Monster Gems and Cards ever become tradable?
The original intention behind them was to encourage users to explore various fields and invest a certain amount of time to obtain the desired items. That is why we set them as untradeable. We have no plans to make them tradable yet.
How naive. I understand your intentions, but your devs should be aware that you cant by no means hinder your players from trading when they want something.
Its ok to want people to grind for gems themself to have some unique stuff, but in reality, people will look for ways to trade these gems and cards anyways. Right now you are only making it really easy for scammers to scam naive players.
Since you seem to lack imagination, I will give you an example about how gems and cards are traded ingame.
Shout: WTB Templeshooter Card
Whisper: 200k/40 Talt, payable via market/trade. But be aware that we cant trade cards directly, so using talt would be a kind of waste. I’ve set up some overpriced mats in the market for your convenience though. Just buy 6 of the XXX for 25k each and the order is set. We will trade the cards afterwards. In case you lose a card in the process, this card will be fused with the Templeshooter immediately.
Shout: WTS XXX Gem
Whisper: I’d buy this gem for XXXk silver/XXtalt. But since we cant trade Gems directly, would you set the gem into Cafrisun parts beforehand? Since they are cheap and worn for a long time its not a waste to set them in there.
OR
Whisper: I’d buy your gem for XXXk silver/XX Talt. But since we cant trade the gem directly, would you take my slotted high lvl item first, put the gem into it, and trade it back against talt please? It may lose 2 potentials due to that, but thats still better than wasting days killing an ridiculous amount of mobs to get that gem. And please don’t scam me!
Thats how I deal with that. Trade restrictions my @ss. You are just making it unecessarily difficult, NOT impossible. Its easy to scam people that way.
Seriously, face reality.
