    When I talk to people on the forum, I'm getting the impression that people are not very fund of gachapon and how it's affecting the servers economy, being pure luck and no effort, and making good items worthless.
    Which is why I'm posting this poll, I want to find out if this is actually what the majority think, or if it's only the opinion of a few.
    And what should we do about it?

    Add a further option with some gach items put in as quest rewards/ pq rewards (neglected pqs like OPQ) and also as mob drops.

    I just believe that neglected gachapons should be buffed, so people will stop spamming shrine at last

    I would if I could. Only mods are able to add further poll options after a thread has been made. We will have to wait for a mod to have it added.

    I think we'll get a good idea of the situation with the current poll options. The details can always be discussed when the general opinion has been formed, no worries.

    I remember sometime in the past there was a list of potential gachapon redistribution places. IF we get rid of gachapon, would you want it to follow that how it said in that post? (I don't remember which post it is)

    yeah lets make chaos scrolls, pink capes, and more stuff that is most expensive now be dropped from mob so that bishops/arch mages get an even greater advantage why not /sarcasmdetected?

    edit: reading the links posted above, if the rarest items like i mentioned were to be exclusive from GPQ, and even then not be dropped every time, that would be fair i suppose. could also be in APQ when its fixed

    Sure, let's make them drop from snails at 20% rate. I figure 20% instead of 100% to make people actually work for it.

    Yeah, stuff like that would be a good idea to have as zak drops or very rare mob drops, not easily farmed by mages. The idea behind redistributing these items, is to make some items more rare, and make it take effort to get a PaC instead of just pure luck as it is right now.

    I'd just prefer a rebalance of Gachas and possible (extremely rare) NX drops from mobs to use these. Everyone just shrining is getting boring after a while :p

    I think i'd rather see the gashapons get buffed, rather than getting rid of them altogether. The fact that there's no reason to gach anywhere else other than Shrine (unless you want like Sky Skis or something) is kinda dumb imo.

    I'd rather have mobs drop gacha tickets that you can only use at unpopular towns. So like Perion Gacha, Heneseys Gacha... etc

    I don't think expensive items should drop, since as @Illusion@Illusion said, this would give Mages even more of an advantage over others. Distributing the items over other gachapons would lead to a variety of places to gach instead of just Shrine so you really have to choose and plan things; what do you want to get, where can you get it instead of "oh shrine gives everything lets go there".

    Mages aren't going to get some absurd advantage over everyone else. Anyone can kill mobs and actually, mages are rather bad at killing bosses, so yeah.

    Bosses, yes. But any other mob can be farmed and Mages simply have a big advantage there.

    I'd like to see all scrolls added to mob drops, but not equips, and definitely not best-in-slot equips, or ones that are already forgeable. Why waste time farming badges and tons of other items when something already drops the finished product (Night Raven equips). Also having sky skis be farmable seems pretty lame, especially from a fairly easy mob.

    If mages were so OP in the first place, Neckson wouldn't have added elemental wands into gash. Do you realize how slow skills like genesis and blizzard are and how rare it is for a grand total of 15 powerful mobs to even be on one's screen at once?

    I repeat. Anyone can kill mobs and farm. Nightlords also seem pretty OP, as does any warrior, who can rush and mob. Even bowmasters and marksmen are not that bad. If you're going to make the case that gash items can't be added into the game because mages will be able to make 2x more drop somehow, then we either ought to remove ANY item of value from mobs or remove mages from the game entirely to "fix" this issue.

    I'm thinking sky skis should actually go to Snowman and be pretty darn uncommon at that. Guess that means we'll have people camping it nonstop!
