LP Store Overhual

This is more of a UI thing that it is a economic or PVE thing.

THe LP store would REALLY be WAY easier to use if we could have all the same market categories that the market itself has to sort and group them by. Right now we can duplicate this functionality if you go and manually make a filter for literally everything possible in the damn LP store, but having it automatic would be MUCH easier to navigate.

Additionally the filter option for "affordable" should have more options of granularity. For instance, affordable by ISK, affordable by LP, and affordable by ISK AND LP, and "have at least one required item for". This way if someone has a bunch of LP they wanna burn on random stuff they can get an idea on what they can spend right off. If someone wants a goal to push for they can see what it might take to finish if they already meet one requirement.

Add this on top of the groups and the LP store can be pretty damn cool to explore instead of scrolling for 15 minutes through 500 implants.

And if CCP could remove some tags of the "cost" of some items and increase the pricetag in isk, they created a very nice desirable isk sink. +1

I was kinda hoping this was a discussion forum post about adding some new items to the LP store, or like the poster above me, perhaps slightly changing the requirements for some items.

In any case I like your idea too, it would be nice if you could enhance the search options in the LP store.

The only problem with messing with the tag requirement is that is the only reason the tag market exists, if you remove or mess with that requirement too much, suddenly the tag market totally disintegrates.

I for one sometimes like to sell my tags when I need extra Isk.

Personally, I would like if the faction items' (and other items that available in LP stores) description would include a list of corporations where I can get that thing.
I know there is probably a website somewhere that does this exact thing, I just have this bad habit of wanting to play a game without suspending playing the game for 10-30 minutes to search through the internet for information that has no reason to not be available in game.

If you want an intelligent argument, please do, I'm up for it!

But if you want a trolling contest, I will win it by simply not participating.

There's a "Loyalty Points" tab in your journal that lists this information.

Enjoy. Big smile

Yup, I knew I saw something before...
My question still stands though: why isn't this available in game? Why do I have to stop playing to find what I need?

It's a mystery. And another mystery is why we don't have something like eve-central in client.

Just wanted to help out in the meantime.

Agreed, LP store could use some reworking to make it more user friendly.

Increase tags drop rate and reduce bounties would have more desirable effect on gameplay.

All that would do isk create a tag sink which nobody wants. Remove tags entirely and people will raid LP stores like there is no tomorrow, which removes gazillions out of the game.

Speaking of LP screens, moving the purchase button to the left would also be nice.
As it is now, the default screen for the LP store hides the button.

Yes, it can be resized, but tell that to the new players...and tell them, and tell them, ad nauseum.
