    What you guys don't like events designed for people who buy duped gold from chinese sites distribute it among their alt accounts and run auto clickers in virtual machines to get some base grade trash weapons so they can LARP they have something good?

    That was oddly specific.

    The Red Carpet should be longer.

    So people can actually spread out.
    Also promote social distancing.

    The way the system works is indeed a raffle. When the item goes up a number has already been selected. Rather than going through ALL the numbers someone just has to get the lucky number. Once the player with the lucky number that has already been selected goes up the raffle is over. This potentially saves everyone time.

    The system is fair and it works. What isn't fair is all the alts.
    Hm, how does lucky channel get applied with this system?

    Admittedly that was based on the description, seeing it in action it seems like the chinese gold part may be redundant with how quickly it's given out to how slowly attempts are made.

    Everything within that game as always comes with a placebo effect.

    It can be argued that the people making that profit aren't necessarily in need of more gold.

    An event like this should ideally give players who are wanting to do harder content more of a chance with decent weapons, not give people who already own these weapons incentive to try and sell it to those same people who can barely afford a fifth of the prices they're asking for. It just continues to keep those people away from the uniform requirements of late-end game.

    Though that possibility was thrown out the window with the way they formatted the event so that bots can just clutter the system.

    More gold means tweaking your gear to even closer to perfection. Unfortunately it requires a BLEEP ton of it. Like amounts you can even fathom. XD

    Sure. But in my opinion it would be beneficial for weaker players to first get a chance at gear to work on. Events like the Saint Guardian Shadow Mission drops was a good way to go about that.

    I understand people want to perfect their gear. But there are people who don't even have gear and cannot access it due to both price and availability. Those are the people I'm concerned for. Not trying to make villains out of elites, they have every right to make gold and sell items for gold (as long as it's done honestly, and not through abuse). I just wish there would be some sort of equal opportunity for players to reach those levels. A great alternative to this event would be making drops for these weapons a bit more achievable.

    It's really not that deep. I'd hardly consider a group of people touting their weapons on an anime MMO from 2003 anything like the dark world you claim it is. And I've seen enough to believe that.

    Though it's very telling of something that that's the only fragment of my comment you replied to.

    Admittedly I'm already kinda done with the event, mostly just cause I doubt I'll be able to beat the bots.
    I'll prolly show up anyway since I've nothing better to do, but I ain't expecting anything at this point.
