Hard Von Leon Doesn't Drop Cubes

Hello,

For some reason HVL does not drop cubes. This is coming from someone who has killed him ~150 times, so I'm certain I would have seen one had their existence be real. It's slightly odd that you can get cubes from Normal VL, but the hard mode doesn't drop.

Please consider changing HVL's drop table to add cubes! =)

    I agree. Harder bosses should have more rewards when defeated.

    I'd almost think it was a bug. Seems really weird that it doesn't drop any.

    It seems to drop less in general compared to the normal mode. Only real diff is the fact it drops the rings etc.

    It doesn't drop because it's a newer boss, and Nexon hasn't added cube drops to newer bosses yet (Hard Von Leon, OMNI-CLN, Lotus, Damien, Lucid, and technically the chests for Pierre/Crimson Queen are "new" since they weren't always monsters.)

    Had fought Von Leon with a total +210% additional drop rate every day since it was released, and I have not seen a single cube drop.
    Since Von Leon is now limited to once a day regardless of difficulty, the lack of cube drop doesn't make up for the higher value of the soul crystal acquired from hard (2.45m vs 1.46m).
