    With AP Resets in constant demand, I feel it would be a good idea to implement a bundle system

    For example,

    30,000 NX = 12 resets (edited)

    What do you think?

    you do realize that 15 x 3100nx = 46,500nx. Doing what you are suggesting would wreck the economy even more than the shambles its already in. Also there were never bundle ap resets are far as i can recall in the original Maplestory so why add it to this one...a nostalgic server?

    More like 30,000 NX = 10 AP resets since 30,000 NX = 35 Gach tickets

    That was just being used as an example, it doesn't have to be what I wrote, the community/GMs can come up with a fairer ratio

    Ratio edited to 30k nx = 12 resets

    I'm assuming you used the ideology used for gacha, the only reason it works for gacha is because it's not a fixed item out of every exchange. Where as for ap resets its a direct exchange. I just can't see why they would implement it when its 1 not nostalgic content and 2 is the bulk price of an item because someone can wait 4 days. Like I said anytime you try to decrease the price of a direct exchange item, it will have a massive impact on the economy.

    I wouldn't say it would have a "massive impact", if some nx is being diverted into ap resets due to a bundle, then that should bring down the value of them as supply increases (if the opposite occurs, then it's a bit easier for people to buy their own resets anyways) , it could however have a negative impact on cs/ws price, but the degree to which I do not know.

    its a direct exchange, where as when you exchange gacha you have no idea what you will receive so we will call it an indirect exchange, so if the dude was saying exchange 30knx for x number of resets, now people can exchange resets instead of gacha tickets and receive a more plausible and definitive return. I can say from first hand experience that I have had more than 5 gacha runs turn into less than 30m return. Well now you;re taking gacha out of the equation because its a more reliable investment to purchase ap resets because the cost to return holds a higher projected income than gacha.

    So what does all this mean? Tt means white scrolls and chaos scrolls will sky rocket. (As well as other equips and itcg items.)
    which also means, PGC,Socks, FS, 20+att gloves, and end game weapons will be even more inflated

    so yes it will have a massive impact. You all have to stop looking at the little things and start looking at the larger picture. Have fun paying 90b for a 91/19 craven. or 135b for a perfect sleeve. (obviously exaggerating, but you should get the point by now)

    Let's say that the bundle is implemented and the rate of ap resets stays at 15m, so for 30k nx I would get 12 resets, 12 resets x 15m/reset = 180m. Now if instead I bought the bundle of 35 gachapon tickets for 30k, 180m/35 tickets = roughly 5m/ticket. Sure some runs you may make less than 5m/ticket but others you would make more. Gachapon would still be a viable option for people who want a high risk and high reward. (sure that might reduce the unpopular gaching places, but they're unpopular for a reason, the majority of people gach at shrine or nlc anyways, and the rate of the return there is above average.) With the ratio at 30k:12 resets, your only getting 2 free resets, I don't think it would get that out of hand.

    Additionally, you're using a slippery slope fallacy to argue your side, gaining 2 free resets won't sky rocket ws/cs prices. Will they rise? Probably. Will it be drastic? No.

    ... to be honest I don't even care if the bundle system is 31,000NX for 10 APR. Clicking the APR over and over again is tiring and I just want to buy them all at once.

    Or just decrease the nx costs of ap resets so that it isn't such a nuisance to players who want to wash having to spend billions, while also helping to create a stable supply of scrolls for people to use that wont suffer ridiculously inflated prices due to the current price of resets.

    Bundle APR actually exists in MapleSEA. The rate was 30,000 for 11APR.

    Just incase you didn't know, holding the "Enter" key continues the two dialogue boxes that pop up so you can just hold enter whilst spamming the Buy button to buy lots of resets with little to no effort.
