Unlocking Classes in Trove - January 4, 2017

[BulldogFasti]

Hi all!

I'm updating this post with the latest info as of January 4th, 2017 since quite a bit has changed.

We listened to the feedback from the community and wanted to find a way to allow players to unlock classes directly through playing the game. You still have the option to purchase Class Coins via the Trove Store but now you can craft any class directly from materials earned by simply playing Trove.

With the ability to get a free trial of every class up to level 4, new options to craft classes, and the option to support development by purchasing Class Coins directly from the Trove Store you have a lot of methods for picking up any Class that suits your style!

What are the methods for unlocking classes in Trove?

• Craft any class in the game using the Chaos Core Crafter[trove.wikia.com] and materials you gather by playing Trove.
  
• All classes can be played for a trial period for free! Play up to level 4 on any class to test it out.
  
• When you start Trove, you can pick your first class for free.
  
• If you play RIFT (another Trion game) through the tutorial section, you can speak to a quest giver in your faction’s main city to unlock the Chloromancer class in the PC/Mac version of Trove automatically.
  
• At Mastery rank 3 in Trove you’ll unlock a Class Coin that you can use to unlock any class.
  
• You'll also get a free Class Coin if you were referred to Trove by another player via our Refer-A-Friend program – this must occur before you reach Mastery rank 20.
  
• You will earn a free Class Coin the first time you spend 5 dollars/Euro or more in Trove.
  
• Class Coins or Class Packs can be purchased in the Trove Store.

Because Classes are now easier to obtain via gameplay we've removed the Class Coin granted at Mastery level 25.

Beyond that, Class Coins can also be purchased on the Marketplace using in game currency - the price on these will vary over time. If you’re willing invest the time you can unlock every Class without paying anything.

Trove has a dedicated and passionate team of creators behind it and they work very hard to put out regular game updates that add new content, improve existing systems, and fix bugs. We’re all very proud of the amount of content available in Trove.

You have the ability to support the game’s development via Patron status (which offers a ton of perks!) or by purchasing items directly from the Trove Store. This support means the world to us. It’s the bedrock on which everything else is built, and we thank you for helping us keep this game vibrant and evolving!

I like to suggest to add to this note:
1. That the class coin awarded at rank 25 mastery has been removed.
2. Classes can be Craft with Chaos Core Crafter.

Thanks for all your hard work to give us a good game experience :)

Enjoyable game, been playing it for well over a month and a half. But... I didn't even unlock half of the classes with that time, and I was grinding and doing 'smart-spending' with both forms of in game currency. The moment things turned on sale on Steam, I was like 'Great! A cheap way to avoid the grinding you can do at level 10 constantly and unlock everything in a lengthy grind!' Bought over $30 of stuff. Would'a cost over not 60, 120, but $200 for everything off sale. The prices were too high, and the grind was way too long. Honestly, adding new purchase means for items and classes are a great idea for all games to real in more new players and get old players to return, but the game seems to focus on limiting the means to acquire classes via purchase. Now, grinding isn't an option. My grinding was wasted, and my money was well spent by tons considering things now. I hope this game changes this alteration to the purchase method. I expect for this game to lose both casual and dedicated players with a need for real currency now being a requirement to progress in game... at least before real currency, all my USD, was merely an option and a good option. Now Trove has become P2P, and is no longer F2P with Microtransactions. Microtransanctions are important, and making it F2P allows new player friendlyness which is now removed. Installing the game is still free. But playing the game is not. I'm glad I paid for stuff though. Right now the marketprice for classes by Trove in the in game store is over ten times (10x) the previous cost in USD in equivalence to these wierd rainbow colored coins... which sucks... really... my friend got the game new... for me it costs over $200 USD to unlock a class, but I unlocked all classes but a few.

As a new player who just missed out on free class coins, this update was unfavorable. Granted classes can be crafted but I'm stuck with 8 options that I don't care for, while the two options that I have an interest in playing are out of my reach until I invest a few more 10's of hours. I thought about putting in the grind to reach the classes, but I realized that the gameplay experience is as shallow as a toilet. The only thing that I was interested in was investing in my character and building him up, but since I have to invest such a huge amount of time to even get the character I want this game is starting to lose its charm fast. Prior to the previous change to options in obtaining classes, it wasn't easier to get all the classes but it was easier to get the class you want. For one, players could use two free class coins to select any class they want. Versus now when it's just out of an option of 8, so that puts a bad taste into new players fast. It's not like it's a progression system like classic MMORPGs where players level up their characters towards job advancements. No, instead we're put in a situation where if you want to play the class you want you have to invest time in another class that you don't care for first. Or you opt to drop money on a game that you wanted to play for leisure, not an investment. Also, wish y'all kept the option with cubits. Found that out after some research and it was a nice option.

you still get 1 class coin for completing the tutorial for a starter char. As for grinding for another character, it can take time but most the starter ones happen naturally. The hardest part is opening the chaos chests to get the cores.
