With the sub cards for stat reduction, don't know why this is needed.
Basically saying you want to make a 1 def pure but using rune armor so its easier and not pay a sub to get a stat reduction. I mean collecting money to get dragon sword and axe without questing is the same as collecting money to buy a sub and lower stats.
???? The current stat reduction system is too limited IMO.
The example was for an account already having 99 1 99 99 so the tedious hard work was already done. You touched on something though, the ability to purchase quest items.. if we are able to do that we should be able to choose to lower stats if we want. It's not taking anything from anyone, nor affecting anyone else, simply undoing hours and hours and hours of your own hard work should you choose to do so.
I never tried the stat reduction, I assumed it reset it to 1, is this not correct?
If not, then I'd fully support a reduce X exp option for the current reduction system.
For example, when redeeming a stat reduction, choose the level you want to reduce to and it can very simply do the math for you.
99 99 99 and 99 hp I want to reduce my defense to 40, the window does the math and says your stats will be 99 49 99 and say 96 hitpoints because you don't have enough strength and attack xp. Then have a confirm button.
If that makes sense. Basically a trading or dueling style window where you choose the options, it shows you the result, and you confirm to use the card.
Would that be a solution? I'm just afraid the value of sub cards will be diminished if there is a free option to do something like that. (even though I buy all my subs in AH and personally would love them to drop in price... not fair to other people)
