<p>After trying the player version of Build your own dungeon there was some feedback I wanted to give the devs. I really like the idea of having a choice between playing premade adventurers and your own character. With premade adventurers you can try out new roles. These may be very limiting due to the ability choices but it is there. Playing your own character gives a more personal feel as you've spent countless hours building them up.</p> <p>1. Add a small amount of gold for normal characters completing the dungeon. This would be to allow for repairs of equipment for the most part. This should not be too much over the repair cost due to possible abuse. (This could be increased if it resolves the below problem).</p> <p>2. Add a way to purchase normal armor and weapons for your own character. Currently there is an option for premade adventurer items but not for normal characters. If this was put into place the equipment shouldn't be better than mastercrafted or raid level drops. The reason to add this would be to allow players who want to use this system as a way to level up a large chunk of their character. If it is not added I can see gear issues developing if it is the primary method of leveling. (i.e. wearing level 30 gear when your level 55 and can't afford an upgrade).</p> <p >The above items would help this system out by giving the player the choice of how they want to play. There will always be an issue of balance in this type of implementation. I'm glad SOE is listening to its player base on these new features. I hope in time the dungeon maker can give further ways of customizing this great idea.</p>
