Same enhancement on 3 lines would be broken. You really want some mages to run around with 24% element per equip (that's what, 96% fire/ice, 110% dark)? lol. Or perhaps run that 18% phys / matk per equip instead (delicious 72% dmg across 4 equips). Plus the fact that since if this is possible, people would be willing to dump insane amounts of money into getting it (this would probably create a market for NX sparks) resulting in a further division between regulars and the NX whores.
If you really wanted the game to be less reliant on gear, the lowered enhancement cap is a good idea. Sparks shouldn't give such good stats and make gear actually worth something by itself. There should be a slightly more uniform drop rate for mats too. Having something drop like ALL the time and then one that drops once in a blue moon is retarded. Cerb paw was like 10g near the end of the 32 cap. That one cerb tag though was like still 500g or something? Same rarity mat, one is 50x the price. Fantastic.
Stamps and jellies are the "cubes" of DN as well.
Also, not sure why you'd talk about the onyx. Drop rate for them is great right now. You can essentially buy onyx from a faction if you buy medium waters and just craft. Considering the drop rate of gifts now (at least 3 per master run; minimum gain in points = 30, max = 90). Biggest wall for regular people are the epic sparks imo. I am not willing to spend 600g for a CHANCE to get some stats on a ring that already cost me 1kG. Stamps are so full of pomegranate.
