CybermanZero Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 So I wanted to post about an idea that I had. As people get their reps to cap people will always ending up getting rep tokens that have basically no use. After you get to cap with the faction of the planet there has to be a better use of the rep tokens, other then destroying them? A Rep exchange vendor would give people other ways to get the rep that they need in other ways as the reps come out and expand in the swtor universe. Basically the way I would see this working is this.. There are currently 3 "levels" of rep tokens, Basically Green, Blue, and purple. By selling rep tokens to the vendor you would earn a currency based on weather its Grreen, Blue or Purple. Then that currency could be used to purchase another rep that said players need. There should be some cost in using a vendor so say it would cost have an exchange rate of say 2 rep currency for 1 token of some kind. While I am sure this may not sit perfectly with the other players. Its better then say destroying the extra rep tokens, because there is no other use for them.

tahyri Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 With this, you'd eventually end up in the same place once you capped all your rep. Another idea would be just making the rep tokens vendorable for a reasonable amount of credits, or useful items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooff Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I would like to trade them in for commendations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeweledleah Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I doubt that they would allow to exchange them for rep, since certain reps are quicker and easier to max out then others (I mean... run Voss heroics on 2 characters, once a day - and I'm maxed for the week... and at lvl 55 they are very easily soloable) however - making them useful in some way, other then vendor trash would be nice... I mean... like say trading makeb/gsi/section x rep tokens in for basic coms, for example. green rep token = 1 basic come, blue = 3 basic coms purple = 6 basic coms since isotop 5 is sold for basic coms - it makes them useful all over again. something similar could be done for space rep (like trading them for space coms and adding material boxes for lvl 9 and 10 materials... or do those already exist?) gree could be traded for gray helix components and Voss - for planetary coms.

CybermanZero Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 Anything is better then just as it is now, Thats why I was thinking about rep trade in ect, or maybe make it a 4 to 1 trade in ratio something that hurts but at least keeps them useful . As it is now is just... depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mithriltabby Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I like the "trade reputation tokens for commendations" idea best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
