As I've said before, Nexon doesn't have a creative thought working for them at their development/production team.
I do think it was planned, but they could have left the drops as they were, even Magnus remove that coin nonsense and have it drop gear, and perhaps actually fixed Horntail and Chaos Horntail's drops while they're at it.
To increase Karma Koin sales:
Permanently drop the price of Super Cubes to 1k per cube.
Permanently have all cash shop scrolls available.
Bring back week/biweek/month exp/drop cards.
I understand not bringing back permanent hyper rock and secondary pendant, that obviously hurts them but doing those three above, while leaving the drop tables alone, the sales would go up exponentially in my opinion. The game would still be very active and Walgreens would be out of stock on cards. Shielding wards used to be 11k NX I believe, so it wouldn't be the first time Nexon has dropped price on a CS item and dropping the price on their top seller, would make it an even bigger sell. Most people don't even touch the Super Miracle Cube because let's be honest, with the exception of cubing weapons, what are the chances you're going to get the stat you're looking for in 11 cubes (19k NX)? It goes to show there are ways to increase your profits while maintaining player satisfaction. I mean isn't that the best way to have sales, by not pissing off your players so that they don't walk away and go to League of Legends or what ever pomegranate is "it" these days?
But Nexon has this backwards thinking and instead managed to piss off the players by messing with the drop rate, still keeping these insane CS rates just to upgrade their character, and resulting in many people leaving the game for other games. Who ever is Nexon's consultant needs to be dropped like a hot potato. My random guess is they hired an ex mapler that was hacked before to consult for them and is now out to destroy them internally.
