Hanabira.Kage Wrote:Special permanent "Cash Item"-like equipment that can be purchased from NPCs for Meso. Of course, they won't look nearly as nice as those in the Cash Shop. Then they can add stats to most/all Cash equipment to entice people to pay real money, but still have a Cash-less alternative (that doesn't have stats) for those who just want the equips for aesthetic purposes.
This equipment sold in each town would mask regular equipment like Cash equipment, and they will fit the theme of the town they're being sold in. e.g. Those sold in Perion will have a Red Indian theme. Those sold in Ellinia will have a Fairy/Forest theme.
I got the idea from La Tale. :x
Maple already has this somewhat; in versions with pachinko, you can exchange the balls for permanant versions of a few NX equips (and a hair coupon and pach-gach ticket). You get 100 balls a day for free, and you can save them up just to buy it eventually or save up a decent ammount and try your luck with pachinko itself. The items range from 5000-9000 balls. A few of them was the crusader tee, baby dragon hat, slime hat, mesh cap, and a few other things. Not a wide variety, but it was a start.
