    Perhaps a more fundamental question we should ask ourselves:
    • Should time to earn be reduced?
    I believe akashskyakashsky mentioned something along the line of introducing new content that does the above.

    If there is support for the above, but not shifting the wall, it means the end result that we want = same. Just that the method is different.

    If there is no support for the above at all, it means at a fundamental level people are satisfied with current rate of progression, bar a vocal group with directly vested interests (like currently trying to finish end game items).

    Just food for thought!

    I think there's potential value in regularly (not frequently, mind you) adding content that raises the bar at endgame, but there's a crucial difference between the two scenarios. Adding new content like Auf opens up new avenues for players at all levels of play, while shifting things like coin conversion rates simply speeds up existing paths. I think there's a lot more value in the former that keeps things fresh for all players, while the latter only speeds up the rate at which the server as a whole reaches truly capped items (like 29 wa capes)

    what if we got capes that give att for free on cwk? since it is not aimed at profit and for its own progression, it is not so much a problem to be untradeable

    I know this is a meme post, but is there actually any data or personal experience people have on how good the drop rates are on these capes? I don’t run CWK often at all and I’m just curious

    It looks like I’m at 110 CWKs run and I’ve personally looted around 10-15 BFCs. Since there were others that dropped that I did not loot, I’d probably put BFCs seen around 30+, or about 1/4 runs.

    That seems to roughly correlate with Blen's numbers, guess it's fair :')

    I mean my number (1/4) is per run, not per runner. Per runner it would be 1/20 if you're running 5 man

    This also fits Blen's reported numbers of roughly 1/20. Your numbers seem reasonable :)

    This math checks out. If it drops every 1/4 runs, and you're running on average 5 mans, it means you can loot one on average every 1/20 runs. After 44 CWKPQs you should expect 2 BFCs.
