Veteran Reward
First off, the right place would have been the Suggestions and Ideas forum, down in the For Fun section.
Secondly, it depends on how it was implemented. If the NPC only sold to you, it would get a big, hearty NO from me. There's already enough cool toys that the 6+ year vets get that the new players don't that we don't need more disparity. However, if this NPC sold to anyone who clicked on it, like the Crafting Table accolade power, then I would emphatically agree with this power, since the vet could summon it to help out his newbie friends too.
I think it would need to have a very long timer - a half hour or more, and probably sell inspirations at double normal price or more to be balanced. Not sure if selling stuff to it is a good idea though. That's something that the devs would definitely have to take into consideration.

No no i was thinking that everyone in the group could use it. if it was a one person deal I wouldn't suggest it, since i suggested it to help recover quickly from a wipe.
if you summoned the NPC on the street, then any passer by could use it or simply just for your group. I can't see this as being something that would unbalance the game at all since only vets would get it, perhaps adding it as a 3 year + vet reward.
And as for selling items to the npc, yeah a low price, in the end it would just be a function to get rid of your junk in hopes of making room for something better (or something you might need recipe wise) to drop off the mobs. If you wanting a good price, thats what WW is for

I appologize if this isn't the place, if not feel free to move it : )
An Idea I had for a vet reward.
How about being able to summon an npc that sells inspirations and (possibly) You can sell items to him/her/it, to free up slots for more salvage that might drop?
Being able to buy inspirations from a summoned NPC would certainly help alot during a wipe or if your healer is out of inspirations.
Now mind you I don't think it should be a all the time kinda thing, perhaps timed, or even have limited inspirations untill a certain time requirement has been met.
Some food for thought.
What does everyone think ?
yes, no?
