What sparked me to make this thread was Terran's suggestion on reducing the prices on the weapon shop npc. While I do think this is true, I think the entire system of the NPC's shops should be redesigned, and also making the crate and Crystal shops better
The Weapon Shop
The most used shop is the weapon NPC, and while he does sell the usual Primordial and Swift weapons, the other two options are less used. I say overhaul the entire shop. There would be deals for not only unlikely weapons, but for rare weapons, and legendary weapons all the time. There could also be limited time deals for primordial weapons, swifts, and maybe even unique weapon deals that can only be obtained by the shop.
The prices of the normal items should be very reasonable, The limited time item should be most likely be a lot.
The Crate Shop
The crate shop is not useless, but just...there, he sells crates that we all seen before. A thread that Moz made awhile ago was about adding crates that were limited time, well lets do that.
It would be like the same system as the Weapon Shop, there would be options for crates we all see and we all opened before (Frostburns, Hellfire crates, etc.) with a reasonable price. The limited time crate (Enhanced crates, Community Crates, and maybe even Eeaster eggs) would have a higher price and be buyable for a short amount of time (possibly also add a crate ONLY inside the crate shop NPC?)
Replace Crystal Shop
In my opinion Crystal shop is kinda useless, how about he sells other items than just crystals?
He would sell consumables, like event tickets (and maybe after the easter event, Harmless Eggs?), crystals including the Vitality Crystal at a large price of course. And maybe challenge scrolls.
These are just my thoughts on the 3 shops on what I think would make them better, a change like this could also entice players to do more quests.
