Buffs should run out even when in Cash Shop

Yeah, the title says it.

Attack buffs and other types of buffs should keep running out even when in Cash Shop. These buffs were implemented in the game to incentivize players to keep doing content immediately after a buff. But with these Cash Shop gimmicks, people are tricking the system just placing characters on Cash Shop for days until their next significant content is available. This shouldn't be allowed as players are just exploiting the system for their satisfaction.

Vote agree to remove this nefarious gimmick!!

 

Just to expand,

While in this instance this might be true, I truly believe this practice to be detrimental to the logical design of the game.

Buffs awarded for clearing a boss is a classic example of Gamification techniques, which the mighty source of knowledge, Wikipedia, has defined as the "strategic attempt to enhance systems, services, organizations, and activities by creating similar experiences to those experienced when playing games in order to motivate and engage users."

This is why this should be reworked, it is a way to incentivize players to keep playing, not for them to just go away for hours on end and return when it best satisfies them.

Hell, I'll even go further. If this is fixed, it might even help more community interactions. Think about it, if people are not to be accommodated to the schedules all of their friends can run, then you would have to be forced to run content with the people who are readily available to do content right after you finish a boss. This would serve as an incentive for more people to get to know each other and run content with others.

This could end the classist and exclusionary practice of only waiting for your OP friends to log in for you to run with them.

 

As Forrest Gump said, just exchange names and you wont be strangers anymore!!

 

nice try, ChatGPT would've done a better job.
