RE: WoE Drop Change Proposal
I don't like the new drops, at least for the items like wools, tidals, valk shields. Those items have a high demand, even higher assuming they are wanted/needed in higher refine scores as WoE items.
I don't know how chaotic WoE is these days, as I haven't participated lately, but the chance to find such a high value item within a chest with a higher probability than by killing the only monster ingame that drops it regularly makes me fear those items loosing value. Those monsters are rather easy to farm for certain classes (SinX/Sniper for banshees and High Priests for Raggeds, as well as a pair of HP and Sniper for Mini Valks).
I see that these drops would certainly make the guilds really want to keep a castle to build up some eco, but on the other hand, it makes keeping a castle more important than taking castles.
To me, WoE is about the fame, about the thrill and about the fun. It's about working as a team and measuring skill. Of course, equip and thus dedication to the game makes a big part of WoE success, but that's just like real life; noone would disagree if someone who works more should earn more and have an easier life. (of course what exactly is "working more" is a matter to be discussed about in concern to real life)
I will not negate that I speak in my own interest here, my main char is a SinX and my main source of income was, and is, the sale of wools and refined wools. Yet I see nothing wrong in my defense of my economic base.
I won't say no to wools/tidals/valks in WoE chests at all, but in my opinion their chance to obtain is too high.
Other items, that would be of interest, are items that are useful, too, but in a more playful way. Hatter Cards, life insurances, Haircut coupons (lol), Gloves [1], Earring [1], Brooch [1], maybe a more specific kind of OCA dropping useful cards, but not the most valuable ones (and in return less crappy cards), OPBs, maybe exprience coupons (like red envelopes, only they add a certain ammount of base/job xp).
