Awhile back, I had the idea of adding a new elixir to the Crowns shop that doubles the drop rate of all monster drops while active. I still think something like this should be added for those people who spend a lot of time farming for the best gear drops. There can even be multiple ones with different duration's and costs to get.
Just as an example, let's talk about how long each one would last and how much it would cost:
1 Hour = 500 Crowns 6 Hours = 1,500 Crowns 12 Hours = 3,000 Crowns 24 Hours = 6,000 Crowns TELL ME people wouldn't pump crowns into the Crowns shop like wildfire just to get these bad boys. After all, we're all looking for ways to speed up the process of farming the best gear faster. And you, KingsIsle, are always looking for more ways to get people to spend money on the game. This pretty much accomplishes both.
Honorable? No, some people are going to look at this and think: "Wow. They're really getting greedy now." Effective at getting people to buy Crowns just to make their farming go faster? OOH, YES!!
i would prefer that they make it easier to get the top tier gear from places like darkmoor (malistaire gear anyone?) without having to spend days, weeks, or months grinding for it. it's just a greedy ploy on their end to try and push players to use the second chance chest and burn through their crowns
