"Quick Heal" pod in Arcadia center for 5g

Waiting for your health bar to get back up after dungeon runs is quite tedious and pointless.
Adding a cheap, one-click solution for that in the center of Arcadia at a low price would be both an easy solution to this problem and a small gold sink.

    Not a bad idea, but also I think just get rid of the healing.

    Does not make sense.

    If you die, you respawn with 100% health (plz don’t change that though haha).
    If you survive (good), you are punished by having to wait. We already need to wait for energy, so this is an arbitrary double bottleneck.

    In addition, the gold would easily be payable by long term players, but more of a barrier to newbies, which is where this really hits hard anyway, and is more likely for them to just quit the game early on as a result of unnecessary friction to PLAYING the game.

      I do see your point, but even for someone starting to play it today, they’ll already be able to get a good amount of gold from the first stages of the Playa alone.
      Current Gold emission is really high.
      As long as it is made clear that Gold and Silver loot are meant to be sold and not hoarded for future use, they should be making more than enough to cover that 5g fee.

      Completely agree, the current system feels backwards—surviving shouldn’t feel like a punishment. Adding extra wait times for healing just creates unnecessary friction.

    I like this idea but I do wonder if perhaps it should be “5 gold or the equivalent in materials.” It’s hardly a one click solution if I have to go to the bank and sell stuff for gold because I can go heal myself.

    It’s still better than waiting around for your HP to increase though for sure.

      I believe now there are plenty of ways to get enough gold for that. A single run in the normal playa would already get you hundreds of gold.
      But to your point, I think adding materials as an alternative payment would also work amazingly!
      Probably a bit less straightforward to implement, but if doable, would love to see it being part of this system as well (assuming we’ll get it in the first place).

    This is a very important suggestion, waiting a long time to regain health is very discouraging to start the next run
