Fact: There will be more balance in the game when every player can fully enhance their weapons.

Question: Why do Varium players have to pay (with real money) for their weapons twice?

Example: Level 31 player want to be a boss in PVP so he buys (Varium = real money) the best lvl 35 equipment. He still loses. He now realizes he must pay again (Varium = real money) to enhance his items to win. He further realizes that for things to stay this way he must again pay twice when stronger equipment comes out.

A much more sane system: Credit only enhancements in proportion to a normal amount of gameplay.

Example: You now reach level 31 and have enough varium/credits for level 35 equipment. You buy said equipment. You battle and earn credits. As you battle and earn credits, you enhance your weapons because: (a) it costs credits and (b) its not too expensive. As you battle, you get stronger due to your enhancements. By the time the level cap changes to 36, you have the ability to buy better items and start enhancing them. Sounds nice?

A possible way to implement this is battle token only enhancements. This would further emphasize winning battles and such...

Off topic: If i may, please start only a single thread instead of flooding the entire forums and include in all your suggestions and ideas into that one thread instead of starting each thread after hearing what other players have stated in other threads pertaining to yours about balance?

On topic: Like Blaze said, elaborate more about your idea instead of just rushing to post something that you think can balance the game. Tokens are fine the way they are as many players need them for achievements instead. And what you have stated contradicted yourself.

You do know that enhancements do cost credits, right? And affording the first 2 enhancement slots are easy for everyone. It is the increase in the cost of credits after the third or fourth slot that makes it difficult. And what makes it contradicting is that if someone has just bought a new weapon and not have any credits left to buy any enhancements, he would still be unable to win as much considering how he is still out-equipped by other players. I do not see how the problem is solved. Further more, if a player spent all his credits on the level 35 equipment and all the enhancement slots, how can he afford another level 36 equipment? And does he have to go through that tedious method of earning enough credits and yet more enhancement slots for that weapon? If so, the level 35 weapon he bought would have been wasted when he would dump it after buying that level 36 equipment.

I'd support the Battle Tokens---> enhancements if it's a 3rd option for enhancements.
Explanation:
There'd be 3 ways to get enhancements.
1. Pay by varium
2. Pay by credits
3. Pay by lesser credits+tokens

Rabble will soon work on enhancements, first change will be lowering prices of Credit enhancements to make them more affordable for everyone so not enforcing Varium to be used, especially at the top range (last 2-3 slots). Use of Battle Tokens? So I pay Varium to get Battle Tokens twice as fast to then enhance for "lower" price? Unless you're ready to pay in thousands of Tokens then yes, not 100 or so since that'd be a joke. (way too low)

@Pro. If it's a different topic, it needs a different thread. ED Forumites tend to lack the patience to read through long threads with multiple ideas...

Maybe its just me, but I think its a little scam-ish that Varium players are basically forced to pay twice for their equipment to stay at the top of the food chain.

Note: I have never purchased Varium, nor do I pan to in the near future.

I agree that lowering the credit prices is all that's needed...but it has to be a lot lower - like the cost of the first few slots now.
