Add more options for Double Drop

[AeroSpace]

Hello!

I am from that category of players who casually play - like a few hours per week. I still play because I like the game (used to hardcore on the old WoM), but now my playing time is significantly less.

A great chunk of those few hours go into farming, because otherwise there's no way to progress.

The problem I have (and I'm sure I'm not the only one) is that it feels like I'm throwing money out the window if I want to up my drop rates by buying an IM glove that lasts a week or month because I only play a few hours a week.

However, I also don't feel comfortable financially spending yang on 1h gloves, because in 1 hour of farming one can barelly extract the yang paid for the glove itself.

I want to suggest a derivation of the IM glove that has 24h duration (it could be more, or less. This is a duration that came out of my mind), that can be equipped or unequipped at will.

This way, the player is in control of its duration and can better manage the personal drop rates.

Thanks! Let me know what you think.

It's not a bad idea for the casual player but I doubt they'll accept it since the policy is this is a full time job. Whops I went offtopic there a bit, my bad. (I'm just trying to be funny)
Anyway, most players were very aggressive in their belief that unequipping a glove is unacceptable so I doubt you'll get much support for this idea. Either way, it could be nice to find a way to help the more casual player feel like they don't waste their yang when they don't have a lot of time to play. Maybe add a secondary IM glove (you can't use both IM glove types) which would be X amount of in-game hours? Dunno how they'd balance that

I'm not trying to be mean but, while I am fully in support for more casual-friendly server mechanics, if you're not seeing a point ahead where 1 hour of farm a day can net you enough yang to improve your character, then the hours you've spent so far playing were not spent well.

1 hour of farming Facial Creams, Tiger Claws, and Ornaments, albeit they sell slower, can net you much more than a simple 1-hour glove. What I'm saying is, regardless of your level, experience, even a returning player with a lv. 18 char can still get some starting funds for their main - I know I did, when I returned and farmed the aforementioned + Tigris chest and in no-time I had enough for a 30-day Premium Pack for my main.

But I agree, at the moment the 7-day IM glove has a bit of an exaggerated price for the casual player. Hopefully prices will get back to normal.

not being in favor to afford gloves, whichever kind, a good thing to do is farming bosses in general, create a rotation for yourself, learn respawn times etc and you might get more per hour without any drop bonus than with your normal farming on full drop
this isn't the only way to farm without using max drop either, there are other things you can try and farm which don't require having more drop chance
maybe you didn't want to hear this, but you might find it useful later
