Hi, just got to portal to check if anything changed in the game...been hoping for a change in allods system for ower a year now :/
Dont mean to disrespect anyone from the above comments, but a game is pay to win.
YES-you can get some runes, a mount, a helper to get a faster start.
YES-you can buy cash shop items item with ingame gold via the currency exchange.
BUT, eventually, after all the hard work u will put into developing your caracter, you will hit a dead end (unless you are willing to invest allot of money into the game). You will get your end lvl, it wont be that hard, with a bit invesment mentioned above even easyer, and then you will realize just how p2w this game is. Not in the way that you need to give money to play or anything like that, but if u want to play seriously, be competetive with others, you will need a lot of cash.
I hawe stopped playing about a year ago, couple of moths after the wery exchange system was put into the game. The reason??? There was just no point anymore. I played for 3 years, not wery harcore player like 24/7, but still i played allot. If you could count my caracter worth based on the cash shop items i got it was worth about 2k €. I havent invested a single cent into the game. I got few mounts (good ones), got helpers, skill scrolls, rubby scolls, and most importantly developed my runes. I managed get set of lvl 7 runes.
It was all wery possible to get trough hard work, as someone mentioned above, but since the exchange system got here it became too hard. Now you will need years to develop to the point where you are competetive.
To explain the exchange system....i started when the only option to get cash shop item and currency was trading ingame gold with other players. Ill give you an example for the most important item (crystal chips-item for increasing runes), when i started playing it was possible to get it for like 8 gold a peace. The more money you offered the more dicsount you would get from players. It was just like a market, u make a deal, offer gold, and buy it. With the exchange system, the prices went sky high. I stopped playing whe a single crystal chip was about 80 gold a peace. Reason??? Well players who invest in the game couldnt get gold for the cash currency. Only way to get gold was to trade cash items with regular players, so the game economics depended on players itself and no one outside the game. With the exchange system there is no need for it anymore. If some rich kid want a milion gold, he will spend 100€, and sell them via curency exchange.
The prices went too high to be fallowed by any of non-investing players.
It is not only runes, there are few types of scrolls(5 levels of each type)eg. atribute, skill pts, etc, each helping you in combat noticably. You might be able to get the,. but only a few lvl of each type...which is not too big diference.
Eventually you will come to a point where you will get killed by some fat rich kid with no skills who presses only 2 buttons on his keyboard.
Ive played it allot, witnessed many ppl (even allot stronger than me) quiting over the same reasons i gave up. Population went low allot in those few years becouse of it. It is P2W, trust me i know. Played it long, loved it, it really is a good game, still hoping for some change (my caracter are ready to go anytime), but its pointless at this moment.
