Tomes in Hero Arenas ?

What do you think? I am including tomes in my arena but A permanent item that gives stat points is way less expensive (A tome of strenght +1 is 150 gold and the belt of Giant Strenght +6 is only 300 gold. And they have a 360 long cooldown

PS: The only tomes available are the agility +1, the strenght +1 and the intelligence +1

tomes are worth the extra money, because they take no inventory slots :þ

EDITed for spelling

Tomes are good, but not + 15 or that stupid stuff. I think that tomes are good, but try not to make your arena turn into a tome war, give them i nice long cooldown and, make them expensive

More expensive, no cooldown, minor effects. Not +1298371 STR, 12 gold!!! Have it like 400 gold for +1 str.

Make it more about item/character usage then tome usage. Right now its a race to see who reaches 100 stat first. Which doesn't take very long in most. So yeah, High cost and cooldowns, low number.

Completely remove tomes and add more items and stress the important of equipment combos, not who can collect the most money and buy the most agility tomes for a range agility hero and cheaply decimate anything ebfore they get anywhere near it.

Creep drops, but only really strong creeps.

Sage the Mage likes earthbound too! Yay, there are ppl for me to talk to finally! Anyway, i would say take out tomes completely, but add more hero levels. Something like 20 or 30. This why it does become about building a hero, and not building his agility to 1000+.

Screw the tomes. They shouldn't be in there to begin with. It's even worse when they have em in a respawn spot. Like in the arenas. People just stand outside, get the money for being there, type uther, and get a +90 tome and own everyone else, while some of the others fight the other people to get experience. Forget tomes, and screw creeps. You kill other people in hero arenas, not stupid respawning monsters. And with TFT, we can make heroes go to 10,000, so we don't need tomes, we can just let them fight each other for experience to get better stats. That's what STFU arena has, which hopefully get its damn site up so we can finish it :bgrun:

I am currently asking myself what will happen if I remove the creeps in my Arena, At least most of the items won't appear, there are only 48 Purchasable items, but still looks like a very interesting way to do the things.
