Grind is awful, so we buy premium time. Some TT vehicle are also awful, so we buy premium vehicle. But then, the premium vehicle is still awful, so we pay talisman for TT vehicle. Then the grinds is finished, and the talisman loses it’s function.

So why not make tech tree vehicle have the same standing as premium with a bit of spending here and there huh? Introducing Treemium.
Currently the only option that we have if we want to ease up gameplay only exist on the RP side with talisman, but the SL cost is still a pain in the rump with how sometimes the earning just got eaten up by repair cost. And sometimes we find a vehicle that speaks to our heart, but the repair cost are just not it. and many times we are forced to play premium to top off the SL because the repair cost is too goddamn much sometimes, making the game progressively less enjoyable. And it is known that Talisman will run out of use case once the player finishes the grind and only play for fun, rendering their purchase obsolete.

To fix this issue we can add another type of permanent booster. How it works:

If Talisman increases RP earning from a vehicle to equalize it to a premium, then Treemium will instead increase the specific vehicle SL earning while slashing the repair cost to match that of a premium. This feature will exist as a purchasable option right beside the Talisman button. Purchasing this “upgrade” will add SL boost icon to the vehicle as seen in the premium vehicle which added golden 2X symbol on the vehicle SL multiplier. The symbol can have it’s colour changed to say, red or pale gold to reflect that it’s not a “true premium”.

I’ve thought about the implementation long and hard about whether having treemium and talisman would affect a vehicle status and elevating it to premium, after some thinking, I have decided that there will be no changes in rank efficiency if you have this and talisman together, as the true aim for this purchasable upgrade is to allow us to play the vehicle we’re good at as SL grinder instead of having to switch mastery into premium that we might’ve not liked so much but forced to do. and seeing that it still a paid feature, I think it’s fair that this feature be added to the game, whether as standalone feature or as an additive component to talisman.

The repair cost part makes sense but not the SL part since that would just make it a premium and would effectively make all premium vehicles useless in the long run, that’s just my take though.

I use premium to grind, not to have fun. I would rather fly J-7E and inflate the stat as much as I want than flying 80 bucks premium even if its discounted at 90%. Plus this is a separate component from Talisman, in the end the cost to talisman and treemium a TT vehicle should at least cost the same as premium.

Pointless.
We already have silver lion multiplier ,its applied to premium vehicles, being able to just straight boost SL isn’t just a simple change and upsets a wide array of things… alongside being pointless.
Repair cost was already reduced from slight annoyance to negligible with updates in recent years.

Grind is awful, so we buy premium time - nope didn’t feel it for the 4 years i played before someone bought me P time.
“we are forced to play premium to top off the SL” not to offend but that sounds like a you problem, i’m bad at the game and even i overflow with SL enough to spend about 10 everytime SL boxes are up and have enough to spare and i know plenty of people have far more SL then me on the regular , i just have a minimum of 20 mil that i don’t really go below.
vehicle are also awful, so we buy premium vehicle - speak for yourself , majority of mine are from BP or war bonds offerings. I only buy rarely when i can afford and for a fun vehicle i might use (usually a low to mid tier ones and so far never bought top tier PV traps)

If it’s not for you, you can just not buy it.

I have been wanting something like this for a long time. Mostly just a SL talisman. alot of my favorite vehicles are TT ones, and i would love the option to get increased SL with those instead of having to use my “SL grinding” prem lineup. I have a list of vehicles i would purchase this for immediately

then remove the rp talisman bcs we have rp multiplier on premiums. they could make it so u can have only 1 /vehicle so u have to chose between rp and sl.

Was just thinking about writing a suggestion for a SL Talisman.

RP is finite, there comes a point where you run out of things to research within a tree, but Silver Lions transcend a TT and can be used elsewhere. Combine with the highly inconsistant nature of adding premiums of similar types, at similar BRs, this can leave several nations much weaker than others. Let alone the fact a premium version of your favourite vehicle might not be an option.

Being able to turn any vehicle into essentially a premium would be awesome. Im not sure about repair cost reduction, as that would likely be best left as a premium vehicle thing to create seperation. But a 100% increase in SL gains for any vehicle would be awesome. I would instantly buy that Talisman for several vehicles

I’ve been thinking about changes related to talismans myself and have also come up with a solution.

In addition to +100% experience, talismans should also grant Silver Lions, which would encourage consumers to buy them (even if it meant increasing the price), but not +100% Silver Lions, because then Premium tanks wouldn’t really make sense.

I suggest:
+100% experience +20% Silver Lions
or
+100% experience -20% tank repair costs

I think both would be great. Premium tanks wouldn’t lose their existence, and you would be able to play your favorite vehicle (let’s be honest – you buy talismans for your favorite vehicles, not every single one).

I don’t know if I can name another game where such talismans work as we propose, and it works brilliantly there
name of the game: Armored Warfare

No?

I want a purchaseable SL talisman. I want the SL gain and repair cost of a premium on a Tech tree plane on the price of a Talisman. if Premium plane has to die or relegated into grinding device that you ditched once you get certain plane, then so be it. the premiums are ass anyway.

if not premium repair cost than at least something like 50%

Creating a second talisman just for the Silver Lion is pointless; it’s better to rework the existing one. It’s not worth creating a second talisman because the developers would have to give back the money (Golden Eagles) to those who already spent money on the talismans, so they wouldn’t feel bad.
Even reducing the experience bonus (instead of +100%, give +50% EXP, but +25% SL). Sounds better than creating a new one.

Not really. it’s a whole ass new product and not a rework on the previous talisman anyway. Beside Gaijin feeling bad is a thing that you can tell me as one of those telltale of end times.

Then the devs would have to give money back for nerfing something players bought with real money.

What’s wrong with adding a completely new talisman for the same price, but with different buffs?

I’m afraid that a Silver Lion talisman would be much more expensive than the current one, Silver Lions are the main in-game currency, allowing you to purchase any vehicle from any nation without incurring any additional costs (Golden Eagles).
With an EXP talisman, you’ll finish a vehicle twice as fast and earn EXP on it, which you can then spend on other vehicles for real money.
I simply don’t like paying double for something that can be placed in one. Especially since if it were a talisman for just silver lions, it would be much more popular and useful, so why wouldn’t they raise the price? It’s just business as usual.

For now, we just talk and talk, and it’s not known whether the developers see and read it.

I really don’t give a damn at this point. 4K GE for top tier SL talisman (about 20% price hike) is worth the money spent for how it makes the game less of a “BUY PREMIUM IF YOU WANT SL BONUS EVEN IF THE PLANE IS SHIT” to “Let’s see you farming those idiots with Hunter F.58 with SL talisman”.

I now have a comment.
It’d have to cost ~6400 GE for top end vehicles.

That’s 2,600,000+ SL directly converting it.

It wouldn’t be 4000 GE, because that’d be less than a premium vehicle.
It has to be the same or more expensive than buying a premium vehicle.

Would like an SL talisman rather give you 100% SL than the same 50% of the current talisman unless it’s meant to go alongside. (at which point it should not cost nearly as much as the current talisman)

Where did you get those figures from?

A standard RP Talisman from something like the Typhoon at 14.3 costs 3’300 GE. Why would an SL Talisman that could just provide a 100% increase in SL gains, just like the RP one increase the gains by 100% cost anymore?

There is no justification for it costs more than double what the RP Talisman already costs.
