The aurum boosters that make you skill up 50% more. At the start I was under the impression that they give you a 50% boost to hitting the cap quicker, but instead they give you the ability to go 50% above the cap. Doesn't that sound a bit p2w? The microtransactions system they described was little boosters to get you there faster but nothing none paying players couldn't get, however if someone is able to make 250-300k extra SP a month than me by paying there is something wrong with that.
Thoughts? |

The simple fact is that experience boosters are an established part of the F2P market, and something that would be held against Dust if they decided against them. Personally, I would think you could just have the Passive boosters be ISK only, and the Active ones be AURUM. |

They are AURUM based because they are targeted at people who don't have time to farrm ISK. |
