Remove item shop cooldowns

Postby narbtit » Fri May 01, 2015 8:45 pm

I find it very annoying when i have 185g that I can't buy my egg items. Gotta wait like 2 minutes for egg cd, opps omeone else got it. Then the armor piece that also has cd. Can't you just remove them?

Unfortunately no, due to lumber / gold feeding.

I think at-least lowering the CD would be reasonable. Titan can gain quite the feed in 2 minutes if they know what they're doing and I have seen builders pile up near the shops cause of it. @Neco

This is only for the builder shops, not the titan shops. Titan shops already have no cool down.

I dont' believe you can sell eggs unless I am mistaken so it shouldn't b ea problem for that. I moreso care about the eggs than the feeding aspect. Maybe you can half the lumber sell value if we are worried about that. FOr things like the shield of will, it takes 2 long cd items to amek it.

Buying eggs isn't supposed to be easy, since killing chickens should be the preferable method.

There is no option in WC3 to change just the lumber sell value, so messing with any of those such values would also change the Titan's sell back rate, as well as things such as ultimate towers etc.

I don't think anybody sells gold towers at this point.

Yeah, removing the cooldown of the titanic egg sounds good to me. Titanic egg is a luxury item costing 45G, and any titan worth their salt should be able to prevent builders from getting that much gold, so one needn't worry about balance issues. Rather, it makes over-golded builders a bit more fun without having to spam click to buy titanic eggs. (then losing, cuz i have 100+ms)

Therefore, lumber feeding is a problem. Gold feeding - not so much.

Maybe making the cool down slightly shorter but not removing it completely would be a better option as it is quite long at the moment....

Removing cooldowns does seem a bit extreme but as stated, lowering the cooldowns does seem reasonable.

Agree with Burn's post. Make it fun, if we have 270g we should be able to get eggs fast as we want.
