First of all I want to say I really love the fact that you guys listened to us and made changes, however with that said you have missed the mark by a bit.

When people say we don't want P2W, the solution we were looking for was the complete removal of the option to purchase random boxes with NX in the reboot server. With the changes now, you have removed the best in slot medals, probably the best thing about this event, and made the NX purchase option cheaper. The problem is if you wanted to get rid of p2w, this doesn't accomplish anything , as you can still get tons of other items that benefit your character from those boxes that are still pay to win, items such as scrolls, android hearts, weapons and accessories. Removing the medal really doesn't do anything at all in this respect, an item doesn't have to be best in slot to qualify as "pay to win", this change only ends up driving people away from the boxes altogether because now the only incentive to purchase those boxes in the first place is gone.

Removing those medals from reboot makes us unable to enjoy the best part of the entire event, I think the option to use NX to purchase random boxes should be completely removed from the reboot server because in its current state, it's STILL pay to win, as you can get many items that benefit your character such as equips, scrolls, etc. The removed items should be added back in as it will no longer be a problem if the NX option is removed. The price change from 500 to 100m was perfect however. I know this won't benefit Nexon profit wise but I can guarantee you the community will take you a lot more seriously. And honestly the way it is, no one is going to buy those boxes ANYWAYS since you can't even get medals from them, I don't think anyone will be spending NX on those boxes in Reboot anyway in its current state.

Thanks Nexon I hope you guys listen to this as well, the changes you made were a step in the right direction, but was ultimately not what we asked for.

    Very good point, the boxes are still pay to win with things like fafnir and sweetwater accessories, so just remove the NX option and add the medals back in... Honestly it's not like people are actually going to spend NX on those boxes right now anyways, If you can't get the medals there is just no point in bothering with the boxes. So I doubt they will even lose any money.

    Looking at those lists (thank you, AlexF), I wonder: Now that these boxes are basically Conjurer's with some Re:ZERO chairs thrown in, why sell them for meso at all?
