random tutor moves are really, stupid.
there is no reason at all for it to be random, i guess i can understand for shards tho since they are really easy to get, but even then the random factor is annoying.
Cant we have a simple move tutor? like we pay 1 shard for 1 move (depending on the type)
i dont think its hard to implement.
oh and lets not forget about Heart Scales, they are VERY hard to get, and when you get one, you have to pray to RNG to get the move you want, nuff said.
I agree with this 1000% because heart scales are rare, so I believe we should just stop this madness because it’s ridiculous. Why should I try to get lucky on ONE move? It doesn’t make sense. Either make Heart Scales less rare, or stop the random tutor moves.
I understand with Heart Scales because they’re rare and expensive in bulk, but not with the shard tutor because shards are rather inexpensive. If you value a HS at 50K, you can buy about 50 shards with that money, which should be more than enough to learn the move you want.
I dont want Heart Scales to be less rare, i want RANDOM tutor moves GONE.
RANDOM = GONE
got that?
Heart Scales can be still rare but just end with the random thing, its not even hard to implement a decen tutor move thing, like we choose the move we want and stuff.
I think having the random tutor moves is fine if you have enough shards, but considering their rarity, maybe it’d be better to give users a list to choose from instead - though, this in mind, Yellow Shards might become overpowered in that you’d be able to choose any tutor move, so maybe those could stay random?
And man… the idea that HS tutor is random really makes me balk at the idea of ever needing an egg move. Heart Scales are rare enough that it’d be a big waste to spend it gambling on a move.
Definitely agree regarding the Heart Scales as something difficult to get shouldn’t have this much risk involved in the reward.
I don’t feel as pressed about shards but can see why one might want that removed for these too, although shards aren’t too difficult to attain from runs at Skylift and such, more time consuming if you need a specific colour.
Also worth noting yellow shards would cease to have purpose since it would seem more logical to remove them than have them list every possible tutor move.
I feel much the same for all of this - though my proposed solution for Yellow Shards would be to give a random move, like their current function. That way, it’s not so imbalanced - I think it’d be better to let it be random for Yellow Shards rather than giving the user the ability to just pick any move P:
now that we’re at it, there could also be something like a “Rainbow Shard” that gives you any move.
just a dumb idea, but i think it would be intersting.
Mm… I think I’d disagree on that. The other shards would work just fine instead of having an all-in-one shard; after all, you could just trade your shards around for ones you need from other players, or buy them.
Heart Scales should remain with the same rarity, untouched. I see no issue with them.
As for moves being of choice during a shard or scale transaction, I’d have to disagree. This would only harm the PMU economy more; heart scales are a pretty pricey item and simply requiring one each time you want an item would cause players to buy less.
Shards are also OK, they are pretty easy to gather up. The numbers accumulate pretty nicely if you’re willing to put in the work.
I think people wouldnt care much about the economy, also, i dont want Heart Scales to be less rare or anything, this topic is just about ending with Random tutor moves, people want a more convenient move tutor, also, Heart Scales arent really an item people sell much because, guess what, they are really rare, if someone is selling a Heart Scale its probably because they are very desperate to make money, other than that, i dont see why someone would sell Heart Scales.
yeah, but remember that heart scales can be get through blue shards, which aren’t hard to find at all.
the thing with pmu is that right now, there’s little worth selling in the player economy - i for one seldom sell anything because the prices are too low, while the usefulness of the items are high, so i keep them for myself, exactly what’s going on with heart scales.
putting an end to random tutor moves will make people even less likely to part with their heart scales.
Akin to the more popular majority, I believe this should be exclusive Heart Scales considering their elusive qualities. Shards are like a dime-a-dozen, and Yellow Shards would be broken if you allowed all shards. Alternatively you could just make yellows random, but at that point, they’re kind of useless. Anyway, definitely should be exclusive to Heart Scales.
I agree with either ending the randomness for Heart Scales or making them less rare. The Shards are fine.
Speaking of this subject, why does randomness exist with these items? I mean, they’re not in main series or PMD… Was it added for a “challenge”?
This was suggested by a friend of mine, but if the randomness factor should be kept while having Heart Scales keep their rarity, then why not a random selection of four moves?
I doubt many want to buy a Heart Scale because of how it works, but if it was improved… A lot more would buy them which should result in them being sold for a higher price.
