I actually agree with Matt on this one. I see no need to give another option for getting Spirit Armor. Both it, and relics are supposed to be harder to get than the others. Yes, paying players get an advantage, but this is one of the few games that don't give paying players things non-paying players can't get.

And, honestly, I don't see the point. Everyone, paying and non-paying, will get the armor faster and end up causing problems once again.
