Make ultimate transformation available for all

    Galeas and team: are there any plans to make ultimate transformation more available for free to play user?

    With the start of the transformation system (september 2018) you said it is a long term goal to get one. How long should it take?


    The only source by now is by shop or by beeing super lucky with fusing legendarys.

    Getting two or four double legendary forms takes about 2-4 months.

    The probability to get ultimate by fusing is 2.75% (fusing 2) respectively 8.25% (fusing 4). [1]

    So what are your plans? Do you want to put some more contracts in the shop or start promotions to give it to the cashing players? Do you want to reward us players for playing the game?


    My suggestions:

    • Legendary Transformation Breath every month
    • change ancient contract fragments to legendary (EPIC LOOT)
    • events with more legendary contracts as reward (not only one)
    • event with ultimate transformation as a once per account reward (comparable to helios weapon in CAP’N GROGGET’S REVENGE)
    • hero trails - because of me for two months - with ultimate contract as the end reward
    • change the rates of fusing


    With 7.7 we get two more ultimate forms, but still there is only a small number of players having an ultimate tranformation by now.

    I dont understand still the point of Transformation contracts.

    Why couldnt we just remained at the old system where eveyrone were in equal ground:

    Running scrolls, atk/cast speed scrolls and crit strike/spell scrolls: Everyone were able to get these, even if they just started the game.

    The transformations should not been this hard to achieve, even ultimate considering how the system used to be before. The transformation system would been fine, if it was achieved a lot easier.

    But obviously: Money > Content quality.

    The difference is that in korea ultimate transformation is not out of reach like here.

    The european prices are wayyyyyyyyyy over the top, and the overall european events are extremely stingy about transformation contracts, even to this day.


    Here the only way you'd have to get ultimate form is gambling, either you're super lucky and you can get it from the few free chances you had to fuse leg forms, or you're not and you can gamble your money, with still no guarantee that you will have it no matter the amount you spend unless you're ready to go into 5digit amounts.


    While it was hardly a problem at start because aside from ultra rich whales no one had it, now it is becoming a serious problem as a lot of people start getting it while the chances to get it is just as low as it always was, making people despair and progressively quit the game because they don't see it coming in the foreseeable future while a good 30% of the opponents a player have to face already have it.

    I hate stupid people.

    Here a suggestion.


    At the end, having so many unused transformations is more like a collection.


    So, make (one) ultimate transformation more available and give bonus stats for having normal, large, ancient, legendary and ultimate collections.


    Specifically, people receive a selectable kaisinel or marchutan after 60-100 days of logging in (not continuous logging).


    Pros:


    - Would (more or less) equal the playing field for free and new players.

    - Aion could mantain certain normal, large and ancient transformations obtainable with low percentaje.

    - Legendary and ultimate would remain hard to get and, because of the collection bonus, would keep people interested in paying.

    - Since you are there, like in the titles, it would be nice to separate the stats and the appearance. (for example, using weda's appearance but with marchutan's stats)

    Edited once, last by Yolento ().

    at this point kaisinel should be avaliable for most people...since 2 more ulti forms incoming..but they do a great job


    at least give us everyu 2 weeks somelegendary form via events

    I want to add a suggestion:

    There was an event taking place in Korea which fought against rng. When fusing three times six legendary contracts and you fail, you get a selection box of ultimate transformation [1].

    That means you have to fuse 18 (3x6) double legendary transformations and if you fail you get one ultimate safe.

    As there is lack of legendary transformations in EU this event only makes sense if beeing permanent (and maybe with 2x6 = 12 instead of 18 contracts, but I am not that optimistic)!

    So there is a non rng chance to achieve our biggest long term goal.


    Thumbs up if you like the idea :thumbup:

    (@GF: with the start of the event you can sell legendary contracts in the shop and you will be rich)

    Galeas I'd appreciate if you could forward this to your team.

    Already suggested, already approved by the community, already ignored by GF.

    I hate stupid people.

    Matter of fact is that we won't get an ultimate transformation the easy way. GF will never put them out there without a big rng wall. you gotta accept that.

    Certain content, e.g. ulti forms will not be accessible for free to play players because they need to sell something in order to make profit and keep the game running.

    Bad excuse, the more players there would be playing, the more goldpacks they would sell for example and other stuff.

    They are losing players with this system, why does many other f2p games have a lot bigger playerbase?

    Even certain games that are soon 15+ years old.

    Still doubt healthy online with less p2w would bring more profit than bunch of whales who casually get 10k ac worth of rng boxes every time there's happy hour

    Quote from Mez

    Certain content, e.g. ulti forms will not be accessible for free to play players because they need to sell something in order to make profit and keep the game running.

    There are so many other things they can make money with: goldpacks, polishing stones, runes (especially major ones), odians (especially glowing ones), contracts (to complete collections), new ulti forms with 7.7, cubes, and so on.


    And with the suggestion of fusing 18 double leg forms there would be way more players spending some money for getting legendary contracts than rng boxes.

    It could be ok that rng system if they provided more legendary contracts in game cause the problem is not about failing but about gathering leg contract to try !

    If AT least players ( by playing the game lugbug, events, heros quests etc ) could gather enough to try once per week or more or once per two weeks it could be ok but waiting several months for 1 try 2years after 6.0 release ...

    + the game would be more active

    But what can we expect from GF ...sadly ...
