Clan Runes Overhaul

[Hoodrat]

Most rune drops are useless since most established clans have what they need, and they have become somewhat of a nusiance, so I have thought of something that might actually work....

Step 1: Get rid of all rune drops, they won't be needed.

Step 2: Every clans' rune vaults are filled with each specific rune. More slots will be opened up if necessary because I haven't counted number of runes compared to number of slots alloted per clan rune vault.

Step 3: This is how it works:

Kay, so you have a Rune of the Wise slot. When you click to activate it, you have all the different ranks and rarities with the specific costs pop up in a drop down menu. Now, the costs and requiements for the runes per month will stay the same, but to "unlock" a rune rank and rarity, there is an inital "unlock" cost. For exapmle, a R6+ rune, perhaps 15mil, r6++, perhaps 12.5 mil, and for an epic 6+++, 10 mil, plus normal activation costs. After the "unlock" costs, the clan can activate that rank and rarity of rune for normal monthly costs in any upcomming months for normal price.

Now, this is where it gets good.

You see, instead of destroying other runes for lower ranks or higher ranks, or destrying the same rune, you can "unlock" different ranks of the same type of rune depending on what point in the arena season it is or depending on the need/want for a higher rank or lower rank rune !!! This allows, in slower months, for some clans to downgrade without "losing" a rune and having to try to find it for the next month, it will already be unlocked for the next month.

Also, if this is implemented, current activated runes will be unlocked with no cost so there are no rune power issues at the start.

This is where it gets even better.

This will clear up a lot of the useless runes from inventories/AH/Storage, and also, this helps a lot of clans for the simple fact there really aren't many "rune hunters." It allows clans to modify their rune make up with only the cost of rune power, and no need to hunt around and try to find a rune which might not possibly be there.

Step 4: Win Nod.

Please make note that the lower 1++, 2++. 3++ etc might only have small unlock costs of say 10, 20, 30, or a % of their activation costs.


Any contructive criticism is appreciated ! What do you think?

I like step 4... where do i apply

[StormGuardian]

To execute Step 4, one must first be a Diva, and then get invited to Clan Divas. Then, and only then, can you win Nod!!

Also, decent idea for clan runes! At least give us another row so we can have 2 ranks of the not quite as popular runes for use based off RP totals!

...just a fading, memory...

[LadyGaGya]

Very good idea, support! Adjusting rune ranks is presently a giant pain.

[Huggles]

support

[Enduir]

Thupport.

[Hoodrat]

Bump !


Would appreciate more input !!!

[Nemesiss]

i likes this, pl0x give this

[Davross]

I support

I like the idea, but think the first month or 2 when 15-20 runes have to be unlocked would be very tough months for most clans and also getting rid of runes altogether rather than finding another use for them is a bit sad. What I really love about this idea is the ability to retain and change rune ranks of rune a lot more easily.

It would not be tough at all because, like I said, the current activated runes would auto-unlock free of charge so there are no Rune Power issues.

Also, is it not time to buff clan expansion? Lot of clans hit 100 members several years ago.

Clan expansion would just mean there would only be 3 or 4 "real" clans left. Mal, Val, and maybe a couple different neutral clans because of socialness, not wanting to align, and people not joining clan X because they do not like someone there. It would kill smaller clans. I don't see how it is needed other than people wanting it to expand ...because the want it. No reason just because they want it. Loony has so much rp per month that they can activate literally all the slots every month. Why exactly do they need more people when they already hit "cap" with rp?

This has nothing to do with my idea and can be moved to any of the "omg buff clan membership limit" threads.

[Princenuada]

Support. I agree, most rune drops are useless and therefor annoying. Great idea Hood

[Akilthedestroyer]

OMG, Hoody talked something sensible and effective! ! ! ! Please read this idea and try and implement it in Nod, Glitchy!

[Hoodrat]

I know my idea is amazing but Glitchluff doesn't have the enthusiasm to put this much work into the clan system so please stop bumping this thread. He already said probably won't happen.
