It'll never be an in-game option via platinum, that's one thing I can promise you if I know Hate like I think I do
Before the posts got deleted, the argument was basically: "You can make 3 ToV instances, clear them all 3 times before they expire and easily have plat gained." vs "I don't wanna make 3 instances and swap between them, I wanna repop the one I'm in". Well tough shit, we all lived the multiple instance life at one point. Even WITH FWP, I used this method to clear ToV when it was a nightmare of a zone. Clear to a boss, swap instances, kill him 3-4 more times, move to the next boss, repeat.
The final point is basically: Even if the instance cost gets reduced, you are limiting your income HEAVILY by not having this item, which is why I chose to get it as soon as I got into t5. Then again, getting to t5 had already been over a year of grinding and fun. The server has changed, it's easier to move up and get caught up etc etc etc. T4 and T5 still remain the brick walls they always were, but essences and charm upgrades are a big joke to what they once were in the early tiers. Not to mention, I know of a few new players living the big life from finding 2 or 3 GSoA and just buying all the SLS they need to level up strikes in no time at all, no farming needed.
