Faction Vendor Needs a Rework

How would adding tmogs make u not want to play ? It’s adding to the vendor not removing said gear . Besides if ur an avid pvper none of that gear even benefits you at 60 ? So like why not add more stuff for the vendor that’s completely optional content .

How about they add a new store where you can buy the crafting mods from the PvP-Track for salt and random gear pieces like it is done in diablo 3 with blood shards?

My reply was direct at @BRADLEY comment as he said “All about” meaning only.

There’s more to a game than level 60 content. OPR and Arena are boring. Open World PVP while leveling is the best imo.

I honestly don‘t see your point. The current Faction Gear is completely useless as it‘s incredibly easy to get Gear with better perks and most importantly a higher GS. Nobody in their right mind is grinding for 525 GS Items just to get resilient gear.

If Faction Gear was 590+ Gearscore with a good perk combination however, it would instantly invalidate a big portion of the game that involves acquiring decent gear, crafting etc.

If you want to do Open World PvP while leveling, I‘m fine if they leave lower GS items in the Faction Store as those items quickly become irrelevant anyways in the longterm. But for Endgame players I think the faction store should exclusively offer cosmetics and vanity items instead. These items could also be used as an excellent goldsink that is desperately needed in the game.

You’re clearly missing my point.

My point with the original post is how the Faction Gear is overpriced and considered useless by many. Therefore, the request is to make the gear better.

And i’m not talking about end game items. Many people including myself like to get the Faction gear while leveling so they don’t have to waste their coin while also being incentivized and rewarding for open world PVP.

But in regards to end game. Yes, they should also add features to make the Faction Currency more important too.

Maybe you read my comment again and you see that I literally answered every point that you mentioned.

Not sure what I supposedly missed.

well it should be all about exclusive cosmetics because thats the point of joining factions is to have content to grind for hence why i said optional content for you you dont have to use tokens for tmog while others would like to . its not stopping you from doing what you want just dont buy the items then good lord .

Hiya!

Thanks for your suggestions regarding the Faction Vendor. I appreciate everyone contributing and chiming in on your discussion. I will forward all feedback to the Dev team to review. :slight_smile:

thanks ! looking forward to have more stuff to get from the vendor when you guys do .

faction vendor is dirt. The writs, expertise gypsum orbs, runes of holding and blight/corruption potions are the only things that matter. Everything else could be deleted and nobody would bat an eye.

Material Converters are more than likely the most purchased item.

But I agree 95% of the faction vendor is useless.

No it’s not over priced. You don’t like it is all

Can you explain how you think it is not over-priced?

  • I’ve even given examples of potion and gear from TP to compare.

Pvp gets no love

yes. it doesn’t cost too much coin for the leveling gear at faction vendors.

In comparison to the Trade Post it does.
Players should mainly use Faction Tokens to buy the gear as a reward imo.

In your opinion. Now I see

Ever since many ran faction gear at release of the game in wars ive been missing it. I loved to see the differences on armor looks, you knew you were fighting another faction. Seeing the majority of my company line up with marauder gear was so fun before the clash. Let us have more of these! I need my badass unique marauder set with the dark green cape moving in the wind. Expensive gold/faction token skins in the faction shop (maybe unlock different ones per tier rank) or tokens in the normal shop, why not both. Ive no idea why theyve left the faction differences/looks, but I hope they work on this.

A few ideas to make the faction store alive.

Turn the faction gear into skins.

Add items like craft mods, patterns, emotes, umbral shards and t5 gemstone/oakflesh (bind on pickup version) to the store.

Get rid of Azoth Salt and have the PvP track rewards be free of choice. Make the modes that give Azoth Salt reward more Faction Tokens instead.

Nope. This will kill faction and PvP currency
