This would encourage people to actually kill lower level bosses like Zakum and Horntail. Currently, it's not even worth SOKing most skill books or Zakum Helmets because of how expensive NX is.
I'd take it one step further, make SoKs work like this:
Unlimited trades: regular items, SoK items with no/rare/epic potential, PSoK items with no/rare potential
1 trade per SoK: SoK items with unique/legendary potential, PSoK items with epic/unique potential
1 trade per PSoK: PSoK items with legendary potential.
If an HTP drops with no potential, it's fully tradeable. Cube it to unique, and it needs an SoK. They protect the use of scissors because people will eventually want to trade items, but they also make cheap gear cheap - a 3%/6% HTP is not an extra 180mil depreciation to pay for the SoK, so you have a hope in hell of selling it for close to what you paid for it.
Skillbooks should either be untradeable common drops (<5 runs to find), or tradeable rare drops. It's ridiculous the way it is.
