Of course we didn't have to use Zeni for the PP system. It was an intentional choice.
I've already said, btw, that the intention is to look into automating Zeni. Like... I blatantly said that. You're arguing for something we're already trying to do.
I was complaining about the current system and haven't kept up with the changes that you guys have been talking about. Now, in before this is the questions about the changes proposed, I posted them before you talked about automating the zeni. I was defending my stance that you shouldn't have to funnel into jobs/quests to earn zeni to spend on PP, which you need to stay competitive on CA based events.
Also, let's say for story purposes, I want to demonstrate my power to Vad in spar. I go super saiyan 2 and we fight. Just to get the point across that I've achieved a level above him in a quick spar, I've lost all my PP and now have a huge disadvantage. How is that remotely fair or balanced, or even demonstrates a calculated choice? It results to "fuck, I can't demonstrate my power in this spar because if I really need to use it, I won't be able to unless I go do quests/missions."
If it was usable, even as PP techs, I would abuse the fuck out of it. Summoning that is.
People can argue that tier only really comes into effect during sagas, because that's where player vs player interaction occurs, and you can get zeni from sagas. However if the forum was more active it would be a bigger deal because there would be more player interaction outside of a saga, which is slim to nothing at the moment.
