A palace of randomness.
O_o So...!
Reccently (thanks to the OMFG box) I got a few really nifty items;

- Severed Head (Female)
- A few of those new Slinky / Voluptuous dresses
- Tatsu helms

- Enough gold to buy Spartan Belted Bottoms and a few other wish list items...


I think Gaia is starting to rely too heavily on things like OMFG and random box generators. It's worrying me a little that they keep making rare items in random generator boxes and then screwing the odds of getting the items up. They should make it a fair chance, I know a friend who bought 200 boxes and didn't get a severed head, they got one volutous dress and a bunch of commons...

I worry that these boxes are damaging to the Gaian ecconomy as they pump more gold in to the system and hence raise prices... lately '03 collectibles / event items have sky rocketed...

Does anyone else worry, or are the boxes just fine?

I worry too...I think they should offer many more unique items in the box (say, have like 15 or 20, and make some commoner and some rarer, like the Infinity hat)and hardly any commons...as those often get sold back to the stores for gold. Gaia's economy has inflated terribly in the last couple months, making it very, very hard for non-donating players to get items...example: Alruna's rose first gen was about 60K when it came out, Inari's jumped to about 90K when it first came out, and Death Whisper has been at 120K ever since it came out. It's getting crazy... sad
I think that Gaia should offer more cheaper items instead of the constantly rising expensive ones in the cash shop, as people are more willing to buy items if they can get 10 for a card instead of one or two, then there will be more in circulation and the prices will be more reasonable.
About the old mc's rising? I don't know what can be done about that...
