With the new Arcade and the introduction of Arcade Tokens, we can win an item every time we use Arcade. It may be a poor looking weapon, useless misc. item, or jackpot! We have Daily Missions awarding us free Tokens if we finish all the missions in the chain, or we can use Varium to purchase them instead. As it stands, Varium is used as a shortcut and it's finally got a purpose apart from buying and upgrading weapons - albeit could be improved upon. Now, how about Credits? We're lacking a good Credit sink which would allow us to spend our Credits that we may've been saving for months - or years even - and don't have a use for them. What I'm proposing is one pool of rewards at the Arcade being fully Credit-only. In other words, there is 4 different pools we can pick from and they are all available by using your Arcade Token, either from the Daily Missions or via purchasing them with Varium. The new pool would have its own set of rewards - just like other pools - but you could either use your daily Token, or buy one with Credits and it would only be working for this very pool. You would not be able to use it in Snork's Stash, or Valestra's Vault. Whilst it may somewhat defeat the purpose of other pools being Varium-only, this new pool would not have new items put in as often as other ones, or rares. Perhaps it could be Alignment-based pool, which would give you Legion/Exile items. Or perhaps a Prize Code pool with old code items. Of course, for the latter, you wouldn't get a Prize Code reward at any category (Bronze, Silver, Gold) but the more rare the item is, the higher it would be. So, for example, items such as Banxorz Blade and Bounty Pistol (restocked twice only, IIRC) could be put in the Gold category. But say, Rev's Auxes which were released sometime ago, could be put in the Silver category instead. *this is only an example* Although, I do believe Credit-based pool would be perfect for Prize Code items. Codes will likely be resumed someday and more items will be made. Codes are free as it is so why charge Varium? You cannot get these items in-game but only via time management (and luck), so it'd be just perfect. Tl;dr: Credit-only pool with less rare items, compared to other pools. Perhaps Prize Code based one, so the items would be possible to rotate too + good for those who missed the code and wanna try some luck with Arcade. Other pools would remain as they are. The Credit Token would not be useable in the other pools, just the Credit-only one.
