White Scroll: protect a slot from failed scroll - currently tradeable
Protection Scroll: protect an item from blowing up - currently untradeable
Shield Scroll: protect a slot from failed scroll - NX (3500, 11@35000)
Shielding Ward: protect an item from blowing up - NX (11900, 11@99000)
Guardian Scroll: protect a failed scroll from being consumed - NX (3000, 11@30000)
In September they announced the Shield Scrolls, Shielding Wards, and Guardian Scrolls were permanent additions to CS. Then they removed them at the end of the month.
Shield Scrolls and Shielding Wards will be on sale @ 50% off and 70% off (approximate, Nexon numbers) during the Black Friday sale.
Shielding Ward + Shield Scroll
Guardian Scroll
Announcement that all these will be permanently in the Cash Shop

I'm pretty sure WS don't drop from monsters, which is why I was confused

White scrolls and Slot Protection Scrolls should be gone forever anyway.
There's no reason everyone should have perfectly scrolled gear.

what about slot regainers then? (name of the scroll escapes me)
i like the ability to outdo your luck, i tend to have pretty shitty luck when it comes to raw scrolling

I thought White Scrolls were Slot Regainers. Whatever they're called.
The concept is a good one, but sadly as a result it just creates more of a power divide and needless elitism in the community. I've seen plenty of flames because someone's gear is not perfect 7/7, 9/9, 10/10, 12/12, or whatever. Hell, it's happened to me in my video comments when I show my gear, and I'm not even playing GMS.
Back in the day when your gear was screwed up, you simply got another one and tried again, or dealt with the result. Scrolling should happen long before potential cubing anyway, so you're not really losing all that much by having a few failed scrolls if you don't like it.
Plus, with 10% and 30% scrolls that are completely broken, and can somehow make gear like +40 attack shoes and eye masks, there's really no possibility of the Slot Scrolls to be legitimate helpers and instead make the game even more unfair to people who don't have a ton of money or cheat.

Clean Slates. And they started cracking down on those a bit with the 5 per character limit on one you buy from "Event Coin" stores. I still have 7X or so, but that's only about 7 slots. I actually prefer Clean Slates to Whites, since I can't afford Whites and sometimes you get lucky with that 10%.

._. I just recently started scrolling my gear, too.
Dammit Nexon D:
I can see it being for the better, though.

They're more like slot protectors. I feel like it's a legitimate method but needs more non-nx avenues to obtain.

Well you have to also consider the reason you were flamed for that is not because it's not perfect, but rather how easy it is to make it perfect. Rather, how easy it seems to be, considering how much are available. Back in the day though you had no choice but to spam 10/30's until you passed 3/4 then you stopped. It really wouldn't be that different, just not as exaggerated. It's a little late to remove the entire method of it all together as old gear would surpass the new for at least 2 generations because of the weapon attack difference.
Heals with time I suppose.

I'm kind of imagining them just making them account tradable only items now. I think they're actually trying to get rid of people selling over the meso cap.

Isn't it impossible to get them now anyways? NLC Gachapon and Mushroom Shrine are gone and those are the only two places I think they came from. RIP Subani's magical scrolls

which is retarded then, because hackers can get meso cap in god knows how much time (it's short though)
