What are you buying first?
Probably the Beam Rifle set, but only to try it out really.
Other than that, nothing is really 'interesting' enough to warrant me spending additional money on it. If something 'cool' came out, then yes I would.
It's now Issue 21 and I am back!

Probably Beam Rifle, though it'd be Street Justice first if that were out yet.

Well, I planned to buy more recipe and market slots. However, I totally missed that our "vet" rewards for bonus numbers of those (and salvage) were going up significantly. Ironically, in doing so, the devs may have convinced me I can save my money. >.>
I will probably buy the bonus enhancement trays, not because I want to be able to gather more SOs, but primarily so that I can pull out more stuff during a respec. (On that note, has anyone verified that all three trays are accessible on the respec screen?)
I plan to buy Beam Rifle, but not right away. I already have "too many" existing lowbies I want to level up. If I bought BR, the character for it would just sit idle for a decent while.

I don't know what I'll be getting first. If Street Justice were available now it'd be that. SInce it's not, I'll probably buy a few costume pieces I can think of a use for and hang on to the rest of the points.

I'll be buying the Steampunk costume bundle, primarily for a new character but there are parts I want for older ones too. I held off buying the booster pack so I could just get the parts I wanted out of stipend points; I'm not terribly interested in (e.g.) the travel power it came with.
After that, I've got some characters that need to be renamed. I'm purging all "cross-dimensional counterparts" from my roster. I made most of them under different circumstances. I've gone on at length as to how I don't feel the recent reliance on such is a good thing and I'm putting my money where my mouth is. I'm using the same codenames on multiple servers -- e.g. I have several characters named "Venture" -- but these are just superheroes in different cities that happen to use that name. (Just as there are several servers, including Exalted alas, where I didn't get to the name in time so there are other people playing characters by that name.) I've "retconned" many of them by giving them new costumes and bios and deleted some low-level ones but there are a few that are going to need a renaming.
After that I'll be saving up for Street Justice.

Oooh, can you buy extra market slots? If so, picking up a few of those would no doubt handily net me the rest of Celestial!
Costume slot number 6. I'm a clothes horse, I'll get 7-10 later, but I want the sixth now.

Seriously, I may give Time a whirl, but I'll have to check it out fully (and more importantly, for free) on test before dropping a single point.
My plan is to be as miserly as possible with my Magic Pony Paragon Point stipend until NCSoft comes to their senses again. I plan to only use them to "buy" the things we used to get free preFeedom, and then only after giving them a good test run first. As long as they're embracing this business model, then I'm going all Mark Howard about it.

Top of my list is actually the two extra Enhancement trays. Beam Rifles is a "maybe" as are some of the scaling enhancement sets. Rocket Board and backpack are not really priorities for me at the moment. The enhancement boosters just don't seem to give enough of a boost to make that much difference. With all the characters getting a freespec, I don't see an immediate need for unslotters either, so will buy those only when and if I see the need.

I'll be buying storage and character slots, as well as taking advantage of the sale on transfers. Gotta get them retirees off Virtue and make room for the new blood!

Rocket Board, then street justice, then beam rifle, and time manip if I have to buy it
Oohhh forgot about Rocketboard, that's an immediate must buy for me too.
Well, the first thing I "bought", in a manner of speaking, anyway, was the Celestial stuff. I'm doing okay for budget this month, so I just went ahead and bought the big pack o'points last night, and figger I'll use 'em when I use 'em.
As for my first store purchase...I may give in on my Beam Rifle crusade and buy it despite the missing models if I'm able to get confirmation that the Celestial Rifle is usable with the set. Otherwise, the first purchase is going to be an extra costume slot.
I am tempted to redo a favourite character as time manipulation. I deliberately avoided it on Beta and tested other stuff so as to leave it a surprise

This morning I bought the Beam Rifle set, the Barbarian costume set and the backpack costume piece. I have just enough points for the Rocket Board, but I'm waiting on that. I'm not sure if I'll purchase more points or not at the moment.
EDIT: And there's a sale on Beam Rifle right now that was very helpful.

I know there are a bunch of us who can't log into the boards, but they can speak up later.
What are you going to buy in the market first? What is that one thing that you must have no matter what they have change the cost to? I know I will grab at least one costume slot, but past that I will grab any new male costumes they have added. |
The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.
Bought, in order:
Beam Rifle
6 Transfer Deal (omfg was that cheap)
Barbarian Straps 1, 2, 3
Barbarian Belt
Enhancement Inventory Increase 1 of 2
School Backpack
I'm one happy camper, let me tell you. And my paycheck comes tomorrow... ooohhh how I loathe and love the store.

Ok so a quick question, how much is street justice? And how much is the backpack?
Whenever I'll have the time to log in, I will probably buy
1 Rename Token first,
then the six-pack of Transfer tokens that's on sale.
Beam Rifle at 20% off is tempting... I'll see if I have enough points left.

I forget how much the backpack was. It's a single costume piece, so it wasn't too much. 40 points maybe?
EDIT: Just checked and I was wrong. The School Backpack is 80 points.

I ended up getting the Barbarian package deal, rocket board, the back pack, aura unlocks (hate that mission), and 2 costume slots.
I dropped $50 on points, and will do another $50 on Friday. I am mostly looking forward to new melee sets, and costume items.
