If on-release chromas are going to become a regular thing, can we change the pricing structure?
I'll say it: you've successfully reached a quality where I actually want to buy them, rather than just something to burn my Blue Essence on a few times a year. Heck, I regularly want to use Chromas over the base version.
Unfortunately, I cannot justify spending the price of a legendary skin just to get the color I want whenever I new skin comes out. I did it once for Sand Wraith Pyke - I don't want to do it again. Maybe if the default-price was still 975 RP I would have been able to justify the spending a bit longer; and maybe if Bundles actually discounted the price of the cosmetics and not just the champion... but as it stands, everything just costs too much. I've got spending-fatigue.
Possible solutions:
- Drop the price of all skin-tiers by ~200-300.
- Increase the price of chromas to match the base-skin; allow you to purchase/use Chromas without needing the base skin (classify the base-version as another chroma); apply a discount to chromas if you already own another chroma.
- Make Chromas persistently available for Blue Essence.
