#Xp boosts bordering on pay-to-win

Gaining power, getting to higher crafting tiers, unlocking gear tiers and perks, all with less time. It’s pay to win dressed up as a booster.

Less mats while leveling crafting = less gold spent or less time gathering mats than someone who’s not paying for boots.

More xp for doing the same thing as someone else, and getting more perks, more health/stamina, better armor tiers and perks, you’re getting more powerful with less time spent.

It’s not outright buying tier 5 gear, or buying perk points, but you’re purchasing your own economy and progression modifiers.

It ventures into the territory of game balancing around the boosters instead of the player experience. It will not encourage new players to play GV. If the game is depending on cosmetic purchases and supporter purchases to survive, xp boosters aren’t the way to go. It’s gameplay affecting, not cosmetic or convenience.

If they aren’t removed, make them purchasable with in game currency and not just premium.

The crafting chance is rough, but the xp is whatever it’s annoying but not really game breaking

No offense, but I think you re looking at the game from an inexperienced players perspective. Weapons and armor dont really matter that much if you re for example worse at blocking than your opponent. Whether you hit someone 10 times with a wooden sword or 4 times with a t5 sword... worst case it just takes 30 secs longer. Same outcome

Crafting chance also gives you more of whatever you’re crafting like billets I forget the chance but it’s like 6 to 16 rolling towards the high end more often is a big difference

Nha , gear is not that much important in this game , skill is 90% of your winning chance , if those booster is the only mechanics they use to rentabilise the game we are blessed .

In duels it’s not a big deal in group fights that extra hit can change the whole fight
