Right now we have an unadulterated cash shop that rewards players significantly the more they spend including into the triple digits. This is a regressive system that promotes the abandonment of the game for people who wish to play the game moderately, and ultimately those high payers leave earlier than a common mmo player. Ultimately it means to have a short term gain, you abandon a steady long-term income. My suggestion is simple. It is a revamp of the item mall to be most beneficial at $20 a month, with a maximum value of $50 a month. The more moderate monthly rates means that many more players will feel inclined to invest in the game. My suggestion of the breakdown is as follows.

Removal of cash shop potions, reinforcement enhancers, compounding enhancers, and stat increasers. These items implement an unfair advantage purely for those who wish to spend in excess. These items ultimately drives players away as the game is pay to win. Cash shop items should not alter someone else's ability to enjoy the game.

Removal of the bonus for WP transfer with a premium account, and removal of the premium account service through Warp Portal. These services should be accessed through the in-game menu in order to reduce the necessary steps in enjoying the game. This will also mean removing the flag for premium accounts as it relates to this service.

Addition of several Premium Subscription Levels for the player in the item mall.
Bronze : Former XP, Lant, and Drops bonus of a premium subscription - 500 gold.
Silver : Bronze + Regional Chat features - 750 gold.
Gold : Silver + increased bank storage - 1000 gold.
Platinum : Gold + Premium Dungeon / Crescent access - 1250 gold.
Hunter Compass : Quest Tracker access - 100 gold.
Parachute : 25 gold
Megaphone : 50 gold

Modification of existing premium items
Item Reduction tool : 500 gold.
Compounding tool : 500 gold.
Pet Duration Extension : 500 gold.
A pet : 1000 gold.

Modification to costumes. Costumes are permanent with no stats 1000 gold each

Modification to reinforce system in order to promote higher usage:
Chances are universal levels 1-90.
Chances up to +10 are 100%
Chances up to +20 are 100% - 75%
Chances up to +30 are 75% - 50%
Failure always results in -1 to compound
Item never has a chance of breaking
Xeon amount needed for rarer gears is half what the previous grade is. So if something requires 20 supernus, it will require 10 eximus.
