I agree with the OP.

Server was advertised as one that’s not pay to win. Some of the companion stats are very good... and require game gold to edit (a lot of game gold). If this is the only way to change the stats, and the stats are so good, how is that not pay to win?

A lot of dudes hunting in places where they would not even sniff if not for their companion stats.

+1 to OP.

You can buy them from the vendor??? How is it pay to win?

You clearly have never played this server.

Be gone troll.

My only critique would be to perhaps lower the cost from 1m?

Maybe level 3, 200k
Level 5, 450k
Level 7, 750k
Level 10, 1m

Maybe add the potions into the of the relevant level sub bosses / bosses too?

I can see where the OP is coming from, a regular casual gamer is never going to be able to afford multiple millions to re-roll especially at level 3. But it’s certainly not a “P2W” system!

It's not about which currency you use to buy the elixir of regret but the amount of time/resources you put into it just to get nothing you can use... which is depressing.

No.

For the odd case scenario of RNG, there's the opposite where someone has rolled once and gotten exactly what they wanted.

That is RNG for you. You can accumulate hunt gold (GG) for free over time, so again, this isn't really an issue. It's just bad luck on your part, it's the same as if someone were to get a book drop on their first boss kill but it took you over 100 attempts.

RNG is a key part of this game, just gotta roll the dice and keep on keeping on. The only exception I would ever make in this scenario would be to implement a feature such as BDO's, whereby the more times you fail on rolling something, the higher chance you have of getting it the next time (+1% per fail) now as to how that would work with pigs, I don't know as everyone wants different things. But frankly it doesn't seem like this is needed.

Yeah Koriban, a guild mate got drop 10 when his pig levelled, sometimes the rng gods shine down in your favour.

Level 3 pig has 354 options that can be rolled (assumming every increment of every stat is possible), it shouldn’t be easy to get exactly what you want.

Is a little silly, 1 million gold to buy from the shop or like 100GG for a re-roll pot. 1mill for the 7 / 10 i'm fine with..But 1 million to re-roll your 3/5 is bit mental. Myself donated a fair bit to get all my buffs off the rip at the start allowed me to build up hunt gold for m eat / re-roll so i'm good. I can see where people who don't have the GG to do it though 1million pop is a lot when you need like 10+ roll to just get a respectful amount of the X stat that you want, thats 10 million gold mental.

Don’t think it’s that unfair at 1m, you need just under 2.5 hours to earn the hunt gold for a pot. You could farm gold for 3-4 pots in that time.

You're looking at it the wrong way, it's not the price of a single elixir but the amount you will need on the long run or if you're unlucky... even Hermit is set at 100k, sure, the companion stats are worth the investment and you think it's fine but 43 elixir of regret is way too much no matter how you look at it and even if there's rng involved.

Dude seriously wtf lol - it’s rng ,no number you rant about has a valid argument for being the jackpot it could be first time millionth time or even never.

This thread is pointles and can only be in the QQ category " i didnt get what i want because i don't have luck. can i have something to make it easier and i dont have to spend time and spend to much money to get it? " ... Like most of the people said it's RNG, you just had bad luck, It's easy to make HuntGold and easy to farm normal Gold so put an efort, you can farm both at the same time did you know that? If you put an efort you can get what you want, there is no need for changes especialy if nothing is broken, people are happy with the way it is. Even i'm happy with the way it is and i don't even have the stats i want on it, all i can do is hope on the next wave of potions i will buy i will get my desired stats, if not then it's back to farming . This is the way Mir goes, you have to farm and put some efort in it, not to ask for things to be handed on a plate to you. If by any stupid chance things would be changed the way you said, imagine how many people will run @ with the best stats on the pig. There is no need for that, it's good as it is !

Not gonna read through all this so sorry if this has been said .

I wouldn't mind a potion that will 're roll the stat. Sunk about £100 into my pig, ended up with decent stats but I'm kinda a perfectionist. I want the most possible but not going to risk it when I could spend £100 more and potentially be worse off than I already am (e.g lose all mana and get MC).

Charge a lot, like 5m gold or 500 game gold.

I'd deffo spend a 5er If I knew it was gonna stay the same stat.

Why do you need that when you can farm gold and get hunting gold aswel and buy pots ? It's alredy easy as it is, why do you people want it more easy ?

What do you mean it's already easy? How is it easy lol. I've got my rolls already so not too fussed, but people could be hunting for hours for the gold, plus hunt gold and end up with Jack for all the effort.

Say you roll DC 3 but want DC 10. So you decide to buy the pots with gold, 5 hours hunting, buy 5 pots and then 're roll and end up with Mc10. Congrats you just wasted 5 hours hunting time.

At least with the "same stat roll pot" you could spend 5 hours hunting for the 5 mill gold and at the very least end up with a 1 DC roll.

I know it won't happen, because people have spent so much £££ (like me) already rolling pigs, and this change would just make them salty as f - but it's an option.

I don't have the stats i want but i think you really need to put an efort and grind for hours to get what you really want... by it's alredy easy i mean, farming gold and hunt gold for hours it's easy it's not like it's available only for people who donate and it will be a big disadvantage to other people, everybody cand make it... in time .
