NCB vs NUB: Buying BA? (in General)


Stephen Young December 1 2005 6:51 AM EST

If I recall correctly, the increased price of BA for NUB characters was implemented due to the fact that their monetary rewards were allowing them to purchase far more BA than was intended by the system.

Since the NCB does not increase cash rewards, it seems illogical for the NCB character's BA purchase price to be as inflated as the NUB character's...

I guess this is the trade-off for having a second chance for growing a dream team in less time. Though I'm praying that the cost of BA could be slightly lowered so that its not so difficult for us :p

It could be argued that most of us after a while spent playing should have money and items stashed away. Unless you've been selling CB$ for USD.... ;)

people who have a NCB opportunity should already have the cash to back their BA buying habits up, as Johnnywas already said.

the keyword being should, unfortunately for me, the keyword is don't, as in I don't have any cash to buy BA. :P

Perhaps these transfers will help the situation:

chelon (chelon1) 218.14.126.184 General Xiaz (Bank of Xiaz) $4100000 October 20 2005 6:08 AM EDT

and then:

General Xiaz (Bank of Xiaz) 144.136.111.195 DAWG (Krang) $11000000 -- $10M +$1M Bonus! October 21 2005 7:17 AM EDT

I think it's very logical for the BA purchase price to be inflated, as the BA you are buying are much more...err...effective, I guess, in terms of the extra experience you're getting due to the bonus.
