8 Star Varium status

7 stars are free, but if one wishes to continue their stars, they would pay a license fee, and that individual would get a new icon (for example tiny squidlings) to signify his/her 8 to 15 star status. It would go up to 7 places, and to enter the next stage, they would pay another fee with a new icon.



This already has been submitted in suggestion. The point of this particular thread is to see if this is a fair feature for our ED community.

would it cost tokens, credits, or varium to unlock it?

First of all, I think this would be a waste of content as stars/rating doesn't help at all in the game. In addition, Its takes hard work to get even 5 stars and I don't see why we need something like this to waste varium on. Its purely unfair and no point in adding "varium" to rating/stars. Its a waste of time.

Nah because it takes cash to get to 8 stars to begin with.

Also in a thread that appeared a few weeks ago, they were discussing different colors.

Black stars was extremely popular and a great idea :)

Show me a nonvarium player with potential to get 8 stars. Why pay extra varium to be allowed to get more stars, if you have to pay varium to get the achievements?

ed is a hard core pvp game. stars serve absolutely no purpose. why would any more star based releases ever be required? (unles sstars finaly got something use, like an additional stat point for every one)

Right now, there is nothing for the game but pvp. This feature is nothing more then a fun extra for players who wish to play the star status game.

This has nothing to do to help the pvp aspect just as stars don't do anything currently. One must understand, if you want tad bit more equality in (non varium/varium pvp), the game "must" develop content that they can obtain monies from. The sole successful source is only weapons, and if is remains, do expect the gap to increase.

Do study this idea, and see how this feature could improve.

guys its possible for a non varium to have 6 stars.
so in maybe a year it will be possible for 7 stars.

and i kinda agree with some of it.
stars should server a little more purpose.
maybe having stars give u more chance to go 1st

actually
better yet
+6% connect sounds better

I think if a nonvarium reaches 8 stars he DESERVES a new icon or whatever. I am also opposed to tacking unnecessary varium fees on a game feature when its just uncalled for.

Status Stars/Icons should not serve a pvp purpose. Cause if it did, varium players will have another advantage.

Maybe if one pays for a fee to go to next tier, maybe that can get a choice of their icon, or even maybe exclusive helm/hairstyles.

@gold. yes, i support that idea. also, ranks should affect the game in some subtle way (such as: champions get +1% chance to hit with strike and other missable attacks. commanders get +3% legends get +5%. etc)

Sounds good, but I think it should be a free feature, seeing as someone with that many stars has almost certainly already invested lots of money in the game.

if anyone reaches 8th star, they would get default star or icon.

Players who wish to go to next tier with license fee they would get a selectable icon and possible exclusive hair/helm styles.

@rej
Hero: +1% connect
Warlord: +2% connect
commander: +3% connect
Emperor: +4% connect
Legend: +5% connect

altho instead of connect, it could be something like "piercing" basically it makes ur enemy deflect less.
cause connect from legend and connect from 7 stars is like O_O

@Goldslayer and Rej.

I'm with Jzannu on this one. Keep stars and ranks out of the battle system and make them rewarding in another way.

@giras
lol we're just trying to find a purpose for it.
or else people who aren't creative will just be like "stars are useless so i dont support"
we could have shops that can be unlocked with ranks.
like emperor shop and such.
however i dont believe there should be a legend shop since there are only 2 legends in the game

it might seem as bragging rights, but is also is a community element too. The less we have inter-woven into pvp play, there will be better balance for all types of players. Pvp should remain simple. At this stage, it has gotten bloated and so complex, it has lost the thought aspect of sacrifice to gain, or gain, but an element must be sacrificed.

^Okay, okay I admit as a Commander myself I wouldn't mind a little boost. Plus it makes logical sense. A player with a vast number of kills should have more experience and thus power. To speculate a moment:
Hero: +1% Not-get-deflected rate
Warlord: +1% Deflect rate
Commander: +2% Connect rate
Emperor: +2% Block rate
Legend: +3% Crit rate (You earned it! :P)

NOTE: All boosts are stacked with boosts from the previous ranks.

We should, however, keep stars strictly to bragging rights.

i can get about another 10k-12k ratings from all those achievement purchasable with tokens
and then i still dont have rare achievements like halo warrior, frost warrior, the superbowls achievements, warlord (daily war kills), and rock star. im sure there are several others i can get atm to boost me up for the last 8k-10k i need for 7 stars.

Geez Jzaanu don't give the AE/ED game admin another excuse to get their greedy paws in our pockets. I actually loathe the fact now that this game has become all about the rich and famous. I don't even watch soap operas so that part of a pvp game is not something I would like to see.

I guess the idea of making this game all about the money and popularity rating is because the game of pvp is failing with all the money hungry features that have been added like stat bloating/enhancements.

If they had focused more on a community aspect like having neighbourhoods with community centres I would prefer to have seen that. Even if they had made competitions between different neighbourhoods either pvp or art competitions it would have been more tasteful rather than war kills leaderboard, rarity ratings and fame.

No the idea of community has been totally overlooked in preference to a more greedy and selfish aspect.

JZaanu I don't see point making 8 starts for varium players. When there haven't been non varium had 7 stars.

These are fun suggestions that I am hoping don't enter the pvp world. Shad, I am just tired seeing the same formula over and over. Though I enjoy the evolvement in one aspect, the pvp has now become work for me, and it feels like a responsibility then a joy. I hope they do listen.
