Hello folks,
I looked at the page Ragnarok Online - Events - Overseas Care Package 72 and it makes no sense to me.
First of all, it does not specify when the event ends and says the OCP Anniversary Token will be deleted when the event its. This by itself seems sus and creating anxiety and confusion.
Then you look at the fact that OCP 72 drops this token at a 6.82% drop rate.
So - imagine this - I want "Rest in Peace" rare item which drops at 0.34% in OCP 69 - if I wanted to get this by trading OCP Anniversary Tokens - based on the table they provided at the page - I need 100 tokens to trade with the new NPC.
This means I roughly need to open 1466 OCP 72 - give or take a few based on RNG. If I just opened OCP 69 directly, it would take me about 294. The math is baffling. Feel free to check it.
For Anniversary token to be just barely viable and on-par with just regular opening of OCP 69 - the exchange rate would need to be 1/5 of what it is now. I.E The rare items should cost 20 tokens instead of 100. A fairer rate would be 15 tokens. I am really hoping someone at GRAVITY/WARP checks the math and how bad Anniversary token is with the current drop and exchange rates.
Is this supposed to be a celebration gift for players, or something meant to get money out of youngers players who can't do math?
I'd like to know your thoughts. I do know that OCP 72 also drops other items when the 6.82% Anniversary token doesn't drop, but really, the items aren't that viable - I have one GX, and I don't really care for any of them. The general common drops which sell for Zeny like BSB are also on other OCP - so it still doesn't make sense.
