[Pvp Ladder Improvements]

Do you guys think we should add new wings now, or should we just add the "improved" version of the existing sacreds/raws, and then later on when most people have those, add new ones to spice things up again? I'm thinking that may be the best action, so we don't play all of our cards at once so to speak. I'd like to know what you guys think though. :D

[Pvp Ladder Improvements]

I think that could be a good idea, but it'd probably have to be more than just movement speed to be desirable, yea? Maybe something like adding to agi/luk as well, and then decreasing HP like you suggested. How much do you think it should add/decrease?

[Pvp Ladder Improvements]

Right now I'm thinking it makes the most sense for us to have the same sprites for the improved version, since if I didn't like how the new sprites looked, I may not put in the effort to get the upgraded version. So for those improved ones, we can do those effects, but I'm also thinking we could add a new 3rd wing with a completely new effect. Or, do you guys think that would be better saved for later?

[Pvp Ladder Improvements]

Do you guys think these refined wings have the same sprite as sacreds/RAWs?

I remember awhile ago some GMs had an idea along the lines of making a quest for upgrading the wings that required the original sacred/RAW. What do you think of possibly making it so you need to give PvP tokens AND the original sacred/RAW to get this refined version?
