So this has been discussed in a few other suggestion topics, namely these ones here, but... why not just overhaul the entire system in the coding rehaul instead of just trying to fix all the weird broken tiers? Having strict numbers with little to no organization or logic behind it has always bothered me (and many others!) so in this topic I want to suggest a way to fix it. Correctly! The Current SystemHere is how it stands now:
Verri's Overhauled SystemAnd here is what I propose:
Further Thoughtsmewflakes (#88492) - SUGGESTION to combine BO raffle and BO event markings into one tier alex|G3 mosaic 7BO bushveld (#53768) - SUGGESTION to have the following tiers: tier I: NCL, not BO, RMA (ncl marks) tier II: not NCL, not bo, RMA (current custom, piety, and RMA-able app marks) tier III: BO, RMA (raffle marks, RMA exclusives, and all BO event and NCL marks) tier IV: not BO, not RMA (gorilla and craftable apps) tier V: BO, not RMA (hybrid marks) Let me know what y'all think! |

I think it's too many tiers. My brain is tiny and already forgets what the tiers we already have are. I think it's a little too broken down, like 8 and 9 should be one.  0 players like this post! Like? |

I agree it could be, though since event and raffle marks are separate right now I tried to keep 'em separate here as well. But I'll add your suggestion to the list! ^^ 0 players like this post! Like? |

i agree with the suggestion to combine event and raffle bo marks! i think the most important distinctions for tiers are BO vs non-BO and RMA vs non-RMA, plus (maybe) the distinction between ncl and custom marks, so if you really want to pare it down the tiers can be: tier I: NCL, not BO, RMA (ncl marks) tier II: not NCL, not bo, RMA (current custom, piety, and RMA-able app marks) tier III: BO, RMA (raffle marks, RMA exclusives, and all BO event and NCL marks) tier IV: not BO, not RMA (gorilla and craftable apps) tier V: BO, not RMA (hybrid marks) rosettes can be tier VI since they have special rules, and RMA exclusives can be separated into tier VII if need be, but this plus tier 0 for unreleased marks seems like the most logical system to separate the rest of them. if you really want to be conservative with the number of tiers, I and II can be combined since the current tier system doesn't discriminate between NCL and non-NCL marks above that tier anyway. personally i think the distinction between NCL and non-NCL marks is useful at that level so people know why NCLs never spawn with (e.g.) pistachio marks, but when you start getting into breed-only marks what type of lion the mark originates from isn't as important. 0 players like this post!

I'll add those, too! But I am of the opinion that we need more tiers, not less - the biggest problem we face right now is that we have too many different marking types shoved into way too few tiers and that's where the confusion comes from. xD More tiers = more organization and clearer marking types (at least from where I stand). 0 players like this post!

that's fair! i think the current system has enough tiers to get by with a reorganization, but i definitely see the use for more tiers and your system makes a lot of sense 0 players like this post! Like? |

I agree that the current marking system could be organized better, but as mewflakes (#88492) pointed out, having 12 tiers might be too many. Here is my idea of a potential tier rehaul, based on the community-perceived value of existing markings in increasing order: Tier I: NCL markings Tier II: Custom markings; this tier can be applied via Marking Applicator but doesn't include RMA exclusive markings. Tier III: Special Applicator markings; this tier includes all craftable markings as well as markings purchasable from event shops, Flood Pit, and Gorilla Enclave Tier IV: Event NCL markings; this tier includes markings found on special NCLs found in the months of February, April, and September and can be applied with Piety in November Tier V: RMA/Total Shuffle exclusives Tier VI: Raffle markings; in addition to markings on weekly Special Lionesses, this tier should also include markings from the July Celestial Raffle and August Maneater Studs, because these are all BO and cannot be obtained anywhere else Tier VII: Rosettes and Hybrid markings Tier 0: Unreleased Marks 1 player likes this post!

I like those! But I do see the issue of obtaining by RMA - some of my tiers are sorted in a way that preserves those areas where markings cannot be obtained by RMA or Total Shuffle, where you combine some that would make them accessible to those things. I also see that hybrid marks and an unreleased tier are missing! 0 players like this post! Like? |

Oh yeah sorry for forgetting about the hybrid marks.. I would probably group them with the rosettes, since they are similarly rare, and Mottled Rosettes is technically a rosette too. The unreleased marks would have their own tier of 0 I think. I don not think I understand your feedback on the RMA/Total Shuffle markings. Are you saying these should be sorted into subgroups? 0 players like this post! Like? |

No, I mean that Tier 5 in the old system (which included hybrid marks, enclave app marks, craftable app marks, and unreleased marks) were blocked from being RMA'd. In your suggested system, enclave, hybrid, and craftable marks would be RMAable. ^^ Rosettes being in with hybrid marks could also be problematic since rosettes are currently RMAable, too! 0 players like this post!
