Riot do you plan to make tier 3 runes 1 IP

NeSsQQuiCk··45 votes·3,228 views

I think that for new players, it's really hard to get all champions and multiple rune sets, 2 rune sets are not enought and it's close to impossible to get decent runes and buy new champs at the same time, please tell me you plan to do this soon! <3

Ryze here. I've been collecting runes for 1000s of years. Still don't have them all. Every rune collected is a life saved. When riot makes runes free in 2017 and compensates players for what they already have into runes/rune pages, many lives will be saved.

His scroll is actually a collection of rune pages he's purchased after thousands of years of hard work. This is why he doesn't want anyone to touch them.

That must've been a lot of IP.

Yep true dat. Why do you think I'm so angry in game. The price of runes.

riot won't compensate people if they bought runes

when they made tier 2 runes 1 ip they posted a month before they did it so everyone would know

But tier 3 runes were necessary.

My friend and I started around the same time. He's spent 90% of his ip on champions, and I've spent 50-60% on runes. No compensation for that is ridiculous. Why can't they compensate me? What makes it so bad to return to me the ip that I've invested? It's the time I've sunk into their game and they're just going to say "sorry for the 100s of hours spent saving up for the runes, no refund teehee"?

lmfao sure if you find a way to get the government to fund Riot employees.

resumed1 votes

i think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what capitalism is

TeCoolMage1 votes

There are three basic places where money comes from: consumers, government and investors. Riot's not going to return even potential money to the consumers because they don't get a reasonably large amount of money from the other 2 sources.

No compensation =/= capitalism, YOU have a fundamental misunderstanding of what capitalism is. However I assumed that you were making a banal "oh so greedy therefore capitalismz" joke so I decided to point out that Riot's not going to lessen their profit.

All I hear is "I" and "my friend".

If you want Riot to move, you need to start the sentence with "Here's how it would benefit your business".

Eh I've tried that, it doesn't work because they don't think you're qualified to use that terminology.

I'm all game for free runes if I can get back the 109699 IP I've already spent on them (excluding runepages).

...And get something else to spend my then 320354 IP on (or 275204 after unlocking the last 11 champions, including Camille).

Such as: -Hextech keys for 1500 IP each. -Skins for IP equivalent of 20x the RP cost. -Champion/skin summoner icons for 1500 IP each. -Additional 20 runepages (yes, I want more than just 20).

Playing since late season 2 here/season 3 preseason, i have like 49% of the champions, 11 runepages and like 60% of the runes i need, not counting that i main jungle/adc/support which they all have pretty much one or two pages per role, if i mained top and mid i would be screwed.

Wow.

I joined slightly before pre-season 3.

I have 20 rune pages, all the runes I find useful and every champion unlocked.

I just took advantage of the BOGO Rune Page and discounted rune sales. I'd used to stockpile 20k IP before purchasing anything, so I'd usually have around 40k or 50k IP when the sales began.

PaladinNO2 votes

Been playing since mid-season 3 here. Owning every champion (will do soon anyway - been saving the purchase of the last 11 for Christmas), 20 filled runepages, owning every rune that I need (and some that I don't - bring it in, 3x Quint of Revival).

837942 IP earned total in 1306 days.

410400 IP spent on champions. 153799 IP spent on runes, including runepages. 38956 IP spent on icons.

210837 IP currently owned. I know all this because I keep track of my every LoL purchase in an Excel document.

And despite all this, I do have a life. I think... Whatever a regular job is called these days. ^^

I'd used to stockpile 20k IP before purchasing anything, so I'd usually have around 40k or 50k IP when the sales began.

I used to do this too! :D Started with 20k (any less, and you wouldn't really get anywhere), then 30k, then 50k, then 100k, then 150k...then I realized I had ran out of things to actually empty my IP wallet on.

I have 20 rune pages, all the runes I find useful and every champion unlocked.

So after all this, how much IP do you currently have? Sounds like 100k at least. :) Btw, IP Chroma sale coming up. Should help get it going. ;)

EndlessSorcerer1 votes

Eh, I only finished unlocking everything recently. I play a few games a week, but my interest and time are divided among other hobbies.

I have about 6300 IP saved at the moment. XD

PaladinNO1 votes

Oh...

Ehm, well, still, if you got every champion now, and got 6300 IP, you can still get Camille for 5100 IP on release.

Buy 3x Hextech random champion tokens (1700 IP each) and reroll them = champion permanent of random unowned champion (and when you only got 1 unowned left...). ;)

Lol thank god they making runes cheaper do you know how stupid it is to try to smurf and get to masters again without a good runeset

MonkeyMadness2 votes

And how do you recommend Riot reimburse players like me that have already unlocked all free content, including all 20 runes pages and every viable rune while simultaneously putting that IP towards new champs? If they do this and don't give me a shitload of free stuff I will be legitimately pissed off for all the hard work I put into this game only to watch noobs have it all handed to them.

Llanite1 votes

They don't do that because they need to have people play and maintain the short queue.

The logic is that, if someone doesn't pay for the game, they have to provide benefits to other players (who in turn pay for the game).

Keep in mind that Riot has to pay for the bandwidth when you connect to their servers (albeit small but millions of players add up). You need to give them something back in exchange, or they might as well not have you.

This game is free to play but if you want runes faster feel free to buy them with $.
