[Suggestion] Crafting Kits for Bronze Cards

(NikolaiLev) #1

Crafting kits are a neat idea, but I was disappointed when I got some and found they couldn’t be used to craft Bronze cards. I don’t actually care much for the skins and I’d rather just get the loadout cards I want, but spending 1,500 on a random chance to get the loadout I want for every merc starts getting steep. So my suggestion is to allow these to be used to make Bronze cards.

This of course leads to the issue of making sure they’re as expensive as Silver cards, but this isn’t a hard fix:

  1. Double the amount of Crafting/Weapon kits in current inventories (or multiply by however much Bronze cards will be viewed as less valuable than Silvers)
  2. Double the amount of Crafting/Weapon kits from purchaseable bundle (or just decrease their pricing accordingly, same result)
  3. Bronze cards now cost 1 kit
  4. The other cards go from 1/5/10 for silver/gold/cobalt to 2/10/20.
  5. End result: all the cards have the same value, but Bronze cards are now craftable.

So you’d need 1/2/10/20 kits for a bronze/silver/gold/cobalt respectively, but they’d be half the current price. Or whatever is suitable.

crafting bronze is literally 2 stopwatch match worth of credit.
why waste something so expensive on lame rarity?

This. It wouldn’t be a waste to me. Consider that even with crafting kits, Silver cards cost a lot of Fragments. That’s another big reason why I want to craft Bronze cards with crafting kits.

And while two stopwatch matches might give me that (it doesn’t unless you have missions going, base income is tiny) it takes away from income that would be going towards mercs.

Seems logical. I don’t see why not. But the real question is why would you craft any bronze cards when you can literally buy any bronze loadout you want from the store? Just do that and save your crafting kits for better skins.
