Talk:Legendary Core/@comment-1.128.105.83-20180830035319

So this post will be sneered at :S

I pay for Legendary cores with plat and here's why:

I often purchase plat from farmers with irl currency. I get 500 plat for $13.00 when i earn near $30p/hr with fulltime hours. So i earn the potential for 500 plat with less than 30 mins of my time i spend a work. I can also make this easily in mere moments with a good trade on the forex market.

Now take what the core does. Say the most efficient way to use one is a level-0 primed mod and it will cost 1,000,000+ credits (2 index runs with a booster) and 30,000 endo (more endo runs that i care for). Take into account the time spent on the index and endo runs far exceeds the approx 30 mins it took me to earn a sum that i can trade for a decent ammount of plat.

I enjoy Warframe as a game. It is a grind, but a satisfying grind that i enjoy after putting my child to bed and spending time with the wife. In the 3 hours that i might get in a night i want to do things where i enjoy the game; you know... for fun. Spending hours per week to level up mods repeating the same mission over and over doesn't sound fun to me and a grind without fun sounds like work. When a game becomes work it ceases to be a game for me that i can easily put down and not touch again. OR I can trade 300 plat for a core and choose to spend that extra time on my other guilty pleasures in life.

A core may not be worth 300p to some of you, but not all of the player base has the free time to farm freely whenever they please.
