Reals Exchange

I often hear people complaining that the game is unfair to players who cannot afford/chose not to use reals in the game. I do sympathize with these players and I think that adding a few simple features to the game could even the scales a bit for those players not using reals. Why not set up a 'reals exchange' at xroads where players can trade in their gold for reals at a 2-1 or 3-1 ratio. This way, players who wish to use reals still have an advantage (the game needs to generate money and lets be honest, people who use reals keep games like this profitable) but at the same time it gives others an opportunity to get great armor as well as the other many perks which are available to real users.

just a thought, and I would love to hear what others have to say about the matter

i agree that would be a very useful idea
Awesome idea!! I, myself, am not a reals user. This would be a great improvement to the game if it was put in :)
Nice idea
I like this idea!
nice idea
awsome idea
hell yea like this idea i could buy a roomy belt then i would love for this to happen. And saint has a point i do not have a credit card to buy reals with this could help many players in the game like me... But are words will fall on deaf ears..... would be a shock if they did do this would be amazing :)">
Just as a thought. If the ratio changes the value of gold will decrease. Like deflation. So then prices would go up on thing you can buy. If that happens we are still in the same situation. This game isn't about money but patience. Save up the daily reals you get .5 if you log in every 5 days. Yes it takes longer to get reals but thats how I've been doing it. But this is just my personal thought. Not saying this is a bad or good idea. just giving people something to think about is all.
This is true zhie but it would be beneficial to people in the game who do not have reals and yes the free reals do help also the 0.20 for killing 100 mobs comes as a big help so we have to wait and see how things turn out
Good idea but still has many many disadvantages because of the way the game is/has been changed to!

I have been quite lucky thanks to my clannies in helping me do real for gold trade cheaply.

If it were 2:1 or 3:1 ratio, then i wouldnt have had even the 3 or 4 pieces i currently have! Not having the blue equipment at my own bracket gives me fair amount of disavantage. Then there is the stupid problem of $$ gear having extra mark slots! Not to forget, the $$ orbs/elixirs are way too advantageous than the normal ones(i still hate the flawless items price being doubled).

The only place where this would truly help is when the players at the highest levels and dont have much need for the gold and dont care about exp.

But yes, it does help in the big picture!

@Zhie:
0.5 reals for 5 days => 9 reals in 90days => blue boots?
0.5 reals for 5 days => 47 reals in 470days => purple witcher sword?

By the time i get my 2 witcher swords - it would be about 3 years into the game :)
