as title, i am lazy and not interested in the zaishen bounty or zaishen mission, i usally do the zaishen combat one, but alas i stil dont have enough golds for equipment pack. and i think it would be easier if i could just buy coins from other people.

so make the zcoins not only for your character.

thx

I have zero interest in ANet changing something to possibly become another mainstream currency.

The point of the coins are to make it so that you have to put some effort into something you want now.

We already have ecto and zkeys, do we really need zcoins?

Good things are worth waiting for. Do the quests, save your copper, appreciate the 20-slot pack when you get it.

They actually want to prevent e-bayers and people who hardcore farm or powertrade from dominating the zoin market. They actually want people to play the game again, which I'm all for. Heck, this suggestion would probably help me (I could easily afford enough zoins to buy several large equip bags). But I don't want to be selfish. People who earned their zoins deserve to be able to spend them rather then get bought out by me.

Actually, the bags themselves are tradable if the little one in pre-searing's anything to go by, so we'll be seeing them on the market soon enough. But I see your point and agree with you.

I gotta agree. Not Signed.

This is the first addition where you can (by yourself) put in as much effort or as little as you like. in the end youll get what you have been workin at. as stated very well above there are more then enough things that sub as currency in this game.

im just glad you can store them now

Horrible idea.
God forbid that you would have to PLAY the game for something you want. We have enough alt currency in the game ectos/zkeys/obby shards and now this crazy run on bolts of linen to give to the Traveler.

Absolutely no way! What ANET has done with making Zcoin untradeable is fantastic.

I would love to sell mine. Got no clue what to do with them since I don't have a storage problem aka they are pretty much useless for me and I could need some extra money or just give em to friends.

horrible idea, /unsigned.

why should anet make something easier for you when you're too freaking lazy to do it. if you're not interested, then you won't get stuff quicker, your loss and choice. I don't need to have a market of another currency besides zkeys, ecto, and gold.

I think what ANET have done with the zoins is a great idea.

Plus I enjoy doing the daily quests, it's been great fun going it to areas that are normally empty and actually playing the game with real people for once instead of H&H for example did rragars the other day with a full human team, ok took us a little longer than expected but we had fun along the way.

Just spend them on alcohol/sweets and you got pts for the title. If you dont need alcohol, just sell it.

You can probably sell the 20-slot equipment bags anyways.

My situation is like this. I have 2 accounts and when possible I do z-missions and z-bounty on both accounts.
The ultimate goal is to eventually some time in the far far future to get on 20 slots bag for my primary/favorite character.

So yes I need to be able to trade them to ... myself.

Ha-ha! No.

The item themselves are tradeable. If you want to trade ZCoins, tell people you have a bunch, ask them what they want, and sell it to them after getting it yourself.
Consider yourself as a shop keeper and the ZCoin collectors as your retailers.

People should communicate more.

Would be nice I guess, but not bothered. The packs should be tradeable so just buy it once people start having some to sell.

just wondering,if you have no storage problem, would love to sell them and sound like you dont want them... why are you even doing the z quests?

/signed /notsigned, what's the difference??

As long as you can sell the equipment packs and everlasting crates (that is, the things Z-coins can buy that can't be bought elsewhere) there is no difference between having the Zaishen coins trade-able or not.

If anet really wanted you to earn according to the amount of time you invest, they'd make the equipment packs customized, and that is something that you people can debate upon (I myself, am against this idea).

The items themselves are tradeable, no need to do anything ot this system other than add more rewards.
To all those that say that zkeys should be fixed, I say NO. How zkeys is a way to make cash for pvp players that dont want to have a sin to run UW 20 times a night in order to make money.
If they fix zkeys they should also remove SF from the game and nerf the dungeon runs. I dont see why pvpers shouldnt be able to make money.
and no i'm not a pvp RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO.

No, no, NO!

The best thing about coins is that they can't be sold. So everyone gets them on his own. You can always sell things you get from the vendor.

You obviously havent looked at the rewards.
the coins can be used for more than just E-Packs.
So buy the other stuff and sell them.

I like the fact that these cannot be traded. People have to work for it. Well, in some cases they'll buy it. But still...

That's like selling gold for gold. Would you think it makes sense if someone sold a 20$ bill for 20 dollars or more?

I'd love to get the extra storage, but at the speed I am doing the quests - I only do a quest IF it's FUN or I happen to need it (and even then on ONLY one guy!) - it's going to take me ages to get there. Buying coins would allow me to just purchase the missing amount of coins rather then having to buy the whole pack.

As stated previously you can turn them into items that can be sold. I like the fact they are not tradeable.

1. Doing combat quests is enough to get one reasonably soon (GvG+HA = ton of zaishen coins; 350 for HA or the load for GvG? + multiple characters)

2.

3. If you want bags or an everlasting crate of fireworks buy them, if not, what the hell are you doing with zcoins anyway?

Very bad idea. I wish Zaishen Keys were the same like zaishen coins. Only personal use, play for what you need or let them be, easy as that.
