That's because it's an influence sink. We need more of them in the game. Also since it's so easy to make tens and hundreds of millions of influence/infamy it's very unlikely the devs will suddenly decide to change it.

More prestige will always be nice but cool creations are well within the reach of solo SG's. I have several with about 2 million prestige in each.

The base section has a couple threads that advise players how to get a fully functional base solo for the 300k you get from inviting all your alts to the same SG. That leaves everything else earned free to go to base customization.

It only cost me at most 400,00 prestige to build an entire Castle. The Great Room it was built in cost 425,000 so my total cost was 825,500.

Height restrictions prevented me from building more floors.

Also if you have a little patience and resist buying the full edition for the fluff items the day it's released, you can pick it up at stores or online after the price has been knocked down.

For example, The Architect Edition runs for $19.99 from NCSoft. I got mine on sale from Amazon a month after release for $10.99. The free booster $9.99 reduced my out of pocket to $1.00 add in the free month that also came with it and I actually made money on the purchase.

And like Thirty-Seven and tens of thousands of other customers I also buy these things for the costume pieces. With the exception of Ninja Run I get far more use out of Costume pieces than I do the powers.

Only problem with that idea is the one that Star Trek Online has with the same issue. Bank Thieves. Every one that chips into an SG bank is going to want access to what they stored and it will be very easy to rip the whole SG off.

Then theres also the problem with an SG leader that suddenly decides to lock everyone out. The GMs have already stated that the SG and everything in it belongs to the person with the rank Super Leader. They won't get involved with internal disputes.

I think a private bank is the way to go.

To be honest I have mixed feelings about that. On one hand I agree with you, but on the other I'm a huge fan of personal responsibility. That being said I'm willing to let the people more qualified than I am to make the final decision on how it would work.

I'm assuming that the draw of the bank would be that the amount that could be stored would far exceed what a mule can hold. People want a bank because they feel creating mules is a pain in the butt.

As t the fees I was thinking a million to buy access per character, and a monthly fee of 10% of the amount being stored.

Also makes sure there is a big warning in game that explains the fee and that it will be taken out each month regardless of whether or not the account is active.

And a lot of SG's want to keep that type of information out of the general publics hands because there are players that make a career of SG hopping looking for unattentive/trusting SG's that they can rip off.

Memphis Bill is right. Just look at how those temp powers look with different body types. The larger the body the more the "costume" part looks screwed up. whereas the regular costume pieces look ok on just about every size body.

Ah! Like my "Oy vey". I was totally baffled for a while there. Thanks for the heads up.

If I owe Arctic an apology then she has it. (I hope I can explain why I came to my conclusion clearly) It just seemed to me that RV was not the appropriate zone to use because frankly most players don't use PvP zones so using it as an example of a zone that already exists that meets Powers suggestion felt inappropriate. I hope that makes sense about my train of thought and again If an apology is owed I offer it.

Arctic_Princess if I misinterpreted what you were trying to say I apologize.

Please explain what strewth is. I am unfamiliar with the term.

Really? Last I checked Recluse Victory was a PvP zone. Or did I misunderstand why she chose to mention that zone?

Actually the Horrorville sounds more like the Haunted House zone that was suggested a few times over the years. The second half tho reminds me of Boomtown and RWZ as far as appearances go.

And Power never said anything about PvP.
