I would like permanent items to be permanently available to new players, however...
the Dark Token system is so bad that I would prefer it to be gone. If it was a 1 in 1000 drop from every monster, fine (it would only take about 150,000 kills to make a belt, and another 150,000 to scroll it - not easy by any means) - but bosses are extremely limited availability, and do not scale to number of players - there are only 19 spawned per half hour (or hour, or 6 hours, or day) and once those are gone there's nothing you can do. With normal monsters, the more people kill, the more respawn - and everybody has a chance to do the event.
