Bloodbank/Shrine Shop idea

Looking in my character's add-ons, items, and offerings, I notice A LOT of items that I, not only do not use in place of other items, but would prefer to have a bare game than use at all.

My idea is that "A Bloodbank" or "Shrine Shop" could be implemented to where you could buy and sell add-ons, items, and offerings

This could add a new kind of currency to game altogether (Blood Bits), or restrict whatever points you gain from the shop to only be used in the shop

Current Cost: (items from the bloodweb)

Common=3000 bpts

Uncommon=4000 bpts

Rare=5000 bpts

Very Rare=6000 bpts

Ultra Rare=7000 bpts


SELL:

Common=250 bbs

Uncommon=500 bbs

Rare=1000 bbs

Very Rare=1500 bbs

Ultra Rare=2000 bbs


BUY:

Common= 2500 bbs

Uncommon= 5000 bbs

Rare= 10000 bbs

Very Rare= 15000 bbs

Ultra Rare= 20000 bbs


I'm not sure about the numerical values and if it is a good balance, but just curious if the idea overall is sound

Would love some Dev feedback as well

    I REALLY like this idea. Personally not a fan of the "blood bits" idea. I would stick with straight bloodpoints since they're more useful and it would be a good fix for the grind issue. Many, many people including myself feel like the grind for this game is ridiculous and the bloodpoint gain needs to be higher. Also, a lot of people feel like prestiging is worthless since you only get a bloody cosmetic and you don't keep ANY items or get ANY of your hard-earned bloodpoints back...being able to sell them would give you some of your points back AND you'd actually have an incentive to prestige! Win/win situation.


    My prices for selling add-ons/items would be:

    Common: 250

    Uncommon: 500

    Rare: 2500

    Very Rare: 4000

    Ultra Rare: 5000


    My prices for buying add-ons/items would be:

    Common: 2500

    Uncommon: 4000

    Rare: 8500

    Very Rare: 11500

    Ultra Rare: 16500


    Most people will be buying rares/very rares/ultra rares and selling commons/uncommons so the values for the common/uncommon things are super low since people tend to have a TON of them they don't use, especially on killer. The grind of the game should be less intense overall but not a cakewalk. I feel like these values would be fair.


    I also think event exclusive items should be sold/bought at a higher price by default because they're rarer and more of a novelty to have.

    Event Exclusive Flashlights/Medkits (Selling): 25000 (they were pretty uncommon during both events so they should be very valuable since they're just a novelty item)

    Event Exclusive Firecrackers (Selling): 2000 (they're a lot more common and you would get 2-5 per bloodweb so they should be sold for a lot less)

    Event Exclusive Flashlights/Toolboxes (Buying): 50000

    Event Exclusive Firecrackers (Buying): 5000


    I feel like bloodpoint offerings shouldn't be able to be sold because there wouldn't be a huge point in selling them. Map offerings should also be more valuble to prevent survivors from buying a bunch of Coldwind/Haddonfield offerings and burning them every game. Splinters, wards, and moris should not be able to be sold.


    Map Offerings (Selling): 5000

    Map Offerings (Buying): 75000 (I know it's pricey, but again, they SHOULD be pricey because of how powerful they can be.)


    Luck/chest/oak/fog/shroud offerings should be the same value as add-ons/items since they aren't near as powerful as map offerings.

    Sorry I went totally ham here but the idea of selling/buying is really cool and I would LOVE to see it be implemented.

    Thank you for the feedback

    The main reason for the idea of Bloodbits is so people aren't using their BP to buy these items; I feel BP should be used for progression and BB used for a fun new exchange experience

    If they did use this idea and used BP, I wouldn't be opposed to it; I just think the values should be drastically changed

    Also, I agree with your idea of Map Offerings be a different price; my idea is basically a baseline: (The main reason I thought of this idea is because I LOVE playing scratched mirror Myers on Lery's, but can never find Lery's offerings... yet i have all these crappy addons and offerings I don't use) Therefore, I do agree some of the... High demand items... such as Prayer Beads, Iridescent Heads, Lery's, The Game, ect.. should be held at a higher price

    I do, however, disagree, that Mori's shouldn't be bought... and that's coming from me, A survivor Main; I feel EVERYTHING should have a price... accordingly, of course.

    Once again, thank you for your insight and support

    I just hope the Devs get to see this idea and get the gears turning

    I made this suggestion(one similar anyway) last year. It didn't get any hits what-so-ever and barely any views lol.

    I have so may gray offerings/addons and flashlights(i cant use them)... Please let me sell them... I would gladly cough up just about every item i own for more BPS/Puddings/Cake, so they should in fact be purchasable. No one hurts from burning a BP Offering. But... Buying 50 flashlights for someone who knows how to use them could be problematic lmao

    Using Plunders in 30 games ive found 10 skeleton keys, 3 purple keys, 6 iridescent maps, and a plethora of green toolboxes and medkits.


    It's hard enough earning Blood Points as a survivor not in a SWF. I dislike high anxiety games so i only play killer when I have rituals.
