I'm against this 100%. Riftwatchers were supposed to be a SPS sink, not a DEC sink. Changing it would do a lot of damage to the credibility in my opinion.
Updated after yaba's comments..
Now I have a question for @yabapmatt that might help me change my mind:
Is DEC still going to be the currency used in Land Resource Liquidity Pools that pairs with the resources? If so, do you feel this change NOW will benefit that mechanism by making DEC closer to peg? (the reason why I ask is because if that's in your head, then at least we should have some understanding of it so we can factor that in as well)
To be fair, these mini sets were originally designed for a DEC sink. That being said, I agree it is what it is at this point. Let the set run its course as is. For the pack sales portion, there is other ways to garner sales for example introduce a Holiday sale at Christmas time for all packs still actively being sold.
agree on both points @rentmoney ...
and the change from DEC to SPS pissed off people too. At the time DEC was over peg and people lost a lot of money when the DEC was removed as the currency to buy Riftwatchers.
For the record, I have a ton of SPS and a lot of DEC and 0 Riftwatcher. I will make money if this change goes through on my DEC because I could buy cheap RW packs (for me). But I don't think its the right thing to do.
Credibility is important for value and I'm always aware of that when I evaluate any of these decisions. In my opinion, they will lose credibility if this proposal passes.
(NOTE: I am basing this view on facts I know, but hopefully Yabapmatt gives us a great reason to change my mind. I don't like disagreeing with the Devs unless I really think they are making a mistake, so I hope he does.)
This! 100% THIS! DONT FUCK UP YOUR CREDIBILITY.
RW IS SPS ONLY. TO CHANGE THAT IS BEYOND STUPID...
