I maintain an average of $200,000 - $250,000 as a runner. As my killer, I have yet to spend money on anything other than trinkets. Currently have $350,000 and often top the kill charts. I think the prices are fair, to be completely honest.

There seems to be 2 fair arguments here.

1 - It's obvious that the skill level in general is getting much higher with the amount of clans that have been formed and remain. The majority of the time a new player will join a clan, making them more competitive and knowledgeable. In turn this forces those who are ability/switch happy to use a lot more and therefore need to keep spending in order to maintain the level of success they have come to be familiar with...

The cost of items may need to be reviewed in light of the fact it takes a lot more effort/money these days to spend/use items to keep you in the game as a result of more players and more skilled players.

2 - The beauty of the game is survival. If you can't take a few deaths to get your cash up then you're a glory hunter and not a true competitor. Some go through whole characters without buying items. This is a testing aspect of the game which takes a lot of patients. A major factor of the game would be to take the rough with the smooth.

This isn't directed at you btw haha, just a point of view, both very arguable and a very valid point.

A good well thought out response Lo0pz. I have to disagree though on the pricing. Lowering the price will just make those who are already beating the pants off of people do so even more, given that they'll be able to purchase even more awesome items. The fact that I can count on some of these heavy hitters to run out of cash while I still have some makes it all seem worthwhile. Gives me hope that at some point, whilst they are suffering in poverty, I will shine.

I would have to say that arguement 2 of my previous post would be the most enjoyable.

I disagree on lowering prices because those who who use a lot of items rely more upon those items than on skill. True skillful players can balance it out between the use of items & playing skills.

I'll have to agree with keeping prices the same. Using potions is an advantage that you gain as you progress through the levels and gain cash. A lot of time what makes a player "good" is how/when he uses potions. Lowering prices will often lead to people using potions more often and then saturating the battlefield even more than it already is.
