Philosopher's stones

Over the years the philosopher's stones has been a very popular way to get any kind of stats and try your luck.

However, nobody is as lucky or has enough money to afford them, nor they have the patience to use around 1 thousand philosopher's stones to get the dream stats, so I had this idea:

Build an item that increases luck with philos tremendously for a short time. What do i mean with "Luck"? get 2, 3, 4 or 5 lines of the same stats. This effect could last around a minute or less. This new item could be avaliable in the gem store, opening up a new extended market where the players of Celestia Luna can buy happily for some guaranteed good luck.

If this haven't caught your attention, there's another way this can work, per example:

Make a new philosopher stone, avaliable in the gem store, that guarantees 3, 4 or 5 lines of any stats.

Any of both ideas are really good, we all have been through the pain of using 2 thousand stones and not getting anything from it.

Also, the "Granting" key should have a designed key, such as Enter or Spacebar, this should make the process less boring and faster since you don't have to move the mouse to click on granting and move it again just to check which stat you just got.

Conclussion:

I don't expect this "Item" to come out, but it's an idea i have in mind, also, this idea should help the game to gather some extra money, for future updates and stuff like that.

What I really expect is an asigned key for the "Granting" button.

Thanks for reading.

This would be good and bad at the same time. (more bad effects...)

Good:

- You'll spend less gold on the stones

- You'll be imba in just a short period of time, if you get the desired stats.

- Slight chance of having an increase on equipment prices; given the price of the "new philo stone" is quite expensive. (I doubt it...)

 

Bad:

- P2W (pay to win), assume the "item" will be sold in IM.

- Since it's easy to get good stats on philo, prices will go down.

- Good equipments everywhere (see bullet 2)

- The imbued item won't be special anymore, no more bragging.

 

What if you used a thousand "new philo stones" and still don't get the stats you want?:32:

About the bad things:

1- Of course it would be a pay to win, but it’s nothing compared to the edited items with +200 of any stats. The only reason I’d like this to be on the Gem store, is to open up a new market which will get more money to the game to help with future updates, server maintenance, etc

2 and 3- Maybe there’s a way to balance it to prevent a decrease on the prizes in the market, per example, making the “new philo” expensive or hard to get, or make it one use only. 

I do agree with you, but it’s just an idea, and I believe it can work out if the final product is well done and balanced in the market.
