    I mentioned it in the other thread, but I figured I'd just give this it's own thread now that the price reduction has officially been set aside while more options are considered. So here!

    One of the main arguments I saw from the older players against the price reduction (and favoring a quest/drop system) was that the reduction was basically just giving ''free'' stuff to the player; basically just making it too easy on the newbies.
    Some new players also voiced that they would like the reduction simply because they didn't want to have to ''Not play for 6 months, waiting to have enough cash to wash out their character for it to be viable''.

    I feel like the best middle-ground to this that would make the most people happy would be to keep the current price of AP resets, but to add an alternative way of getting them that requires work and effort. We had the anniversary event quest from Cody, which seemed to be appreciated by players (although it was pretty tedious due to the players having to farm specific monsters from them), so here's the idea;

    Add a new type of droppable Gachapon ticket to the game; Golden Gachapon Ticket

    The idea would be that you could trade in these tickets to a NPC (Or as Nubjulez mentioned, directly at Gachapons) that would let you trade it in for either 1x AP Reset or 1x Hunting Gachapon Ticket.
    Finding a Hunting ticket from a mob always feels great; now imagine finding a golden one sometimes!
    Basically, with this implementation, the current drop rate for Hunting tickets should be reduced, and whatever rate it's reduced for, be replaced with Golden ticket drops. The goal of this is not to give people more Gach rolls; the current economy does not need an increasing amount of dark scrolls and the such. What this would do is let people who want to wash a character accumulate some more AP resets through work and effort, trading chances at more money via tickets for a faster wash, while letting other players who do not need them/care about them simply trade them in for Hunting Gachapon tickets.

    Just something I thought about while the whole debate happened earlier; I'd like to get the opinions of the more vocal people in the earlier threads! Cheers ♥

    EDIT: Just to make it clear, this does NOT augment the number of Gachapon tickets/gached items. It would basically replace a percentage of the current drops to Golden tickets, which can be turned into either a reset or a Hunting. Since some people would keep them for resets, it would DECREASE the number of gached items slightly, maybe even helping putting a small break on the current crash of prices.
