Report #1607
Skillset: Skill: None
 Org: Ur'Guard Status: Completed Feb 2017
Furies' Decision:
Solution 1 with adjusted numbers.
Problem: Gold Cookie Ur'traps are greatly devalued with the currently enforced
gold generation cap per weave. This change has hampered the purpose of investing
in the expensive (Dingbat currency) artifact of Ur'traps, and should be
addressed to return value to such an investment
[A: 6 R: 4] Solution #1: Change the benefit of gold cookies to that of
 +Critical rate, stacking up to to the max of 100%
 from 10 cookies to a value of +0.5% crit rate per
 cookie so a max stack benefit would be an overall +5%
 that would stack with other sources
[A: 6 R: 2] Solution #2: Make it so bonus gold awarded by Gold Cookies is not
 counted against the individuals tallied limit, to
 return its value as a purchase to what it was before
 the change was enacted
[A: 6 R: 0] Solution #3: In addition to 1 and 2, Allow for traps to have a one
 time conversion to the other two types if the owners
 desire, to compensate for the change in the artifacts
 valued capability offered.

Support 1 and 3 together. I will keep my crit cookies, but for those who wanted
something else, it doesn't hurt to offer (if possible) to change their cookie
color

I'll be happy to change options if there's something better to be suggested,
obviously. These were the best that have been brought up thus far

Don't really like any of these solutions (well, I like 2 but it kind of goes
against what the gold throttle is intended to do), though I do agree that gold
cookies are not worth the cost right now.

I've envoyed things asking for +crits before in Crow, and the answer was "No,
we're not adding +crits to more skills". So not sure if that will go through
here. I'm also not sure that they'd like a bypass of the throttle (as that kind
of defeats the whole point of it). Have to agree with Falmiis that I don't like
the options presented here but something should probably be done with them.
Support Solution 4 (something else), though I don't have a great idea right now.

Not a real fan of any of these solutions. If one has to be chosen I would go
with solution 3's conversion only portion.
---[Shango on 2/15 @ 22:44 writes]:
Solution 3 only is basically saying you only support deleting the traps and
refunding the owners, rather than repurposing them. Needs something for them...

So everyone agrees the gold cookies needs changing at least. This is an
artifact Xenthos, not just a skill, so it cost something. If we go with
solution 3 I would also like to see us replace gold cookies with another kind. I
do not think +crit is unreasonable, though the percent could be 2% max and
that'd still be nice. Note that level 4 rune is 2% beter than lvl 3 and is a lot
of credits. This would make the cookies useful again, and valuable for those who
own them. Otherwise, I am concerned a different change (sol 4) would just be too
bad or too god. If 1 and 2 are not doable, I support 3.
