    Hello everyone,

    I felt like creating a thread discussing the variety of items available and not available from Gachapons on various locations in the server. The reason behind it is the fact I've always been a collector. I've dumped way more mesos on rare or seemingly rare items rather than high-stat items and I'm sure I'm not the only one who does this.

    I didn't post this because it in the 'Feedback' section because it's a matter I want discussed before attempting to give feedback about an idea I haven't really shared with anyone yet.

    Now, I'd like to know what you all think of the following ideas and debate a bit. Lets keep in mind the open beta is still running and new source should be out soon enough. Any way, try to include pros and cons and treat these ideas combined or as sole ideas (ex. You may agree on one but disagree on the other three).

    • Decreasing the odds of getting common equips, like Fruity Bamboos, Palettes, Rat Mouth, Masks, Flaming Katana and similar items. Items such as PAC, PGC, PuAC, etc. would remain untouched.
    • Adding some items like Waterworks Cape, Bosshunter Gear (Armor, Gi, Faceguard, Helm, Grieves and Boots), Stirgeman cape, Stirgeman pants/skirt, Stirge on a string, Spectrum goggles (which have been suggested numerous times, I believe), items such as Kuma or Akha and their higher tier relatives, Celestial Staff, Andromeda bow, Black hole (claw), Scythe, Crystal Blade and such. I believe some of these items are forged, so we could get some items from gachaing in various places (which is also an incentive to stay away from the common ones). This, pretty much.
    • A combination of both ideas above. Adding the items stated and giving them a really low chance of being obtained via gachapon, meaning they'd be worth a lot and it wouldn't be common to see many people with them.
    • The Staff could also add the items previously stated in a gachapon located on a not-popular place. When announced to the community, they could let us know new items have been added but make sure not to tell anyone where or what new items. Just let us know we can find them in places we don't expect to see them or something. This idea is the one I feel less confident about, since someone could probably make a thread on the locations anyway.

    Anyway, feel free to post your opinion. I'm not sure when were these items implemented and I'm expecting the nostalgia argument below, but keep in mind this would probably only affect the economy, which isn't in any way like GMS used to be. Also, getting your hands on godly Bosshunter equipment must be quite nice, am I right?

    Good stuff, didn't see that thread.

    Any idea on what will happen to items such as the Waterworks cape or specs?

    I remember I read something about specs but I kinda forgot by now. :p

    I have no idea, I don't even know what items those are :D
    Where do you get those?

    I believe there are items that we won't get since the npc's are removed in the new source.

    Not sure where its obtained. I read that it's a rare gachapon item and I've also read you get it from a quest. I don't really know, I recall I bought mine for like 500m in GMS. Doubt a quest item would be worth that much. Anyway, I guess it isn't that important. :p

    If the items are in the files and they aren't overpowered it wouldn't hurt to make a thread asking for those, for nostalgic reasons :D
