Gollux Shop has no good reason to be limited.

There is no good reason for Nexon to limit the purchase of Gollux equips to be 1. There are people who unfortunately have either destroyed their superior equips or npc'd it. Especially in Reboot this is a complete hindrance to a character. And that player either has the choice to completely restart their character or deal with it. What reason doe nexon have to make Gollux a one time purchase only?

So I doubt that they would even look at these suggestion threads, Nexon really should consider changing the limit on Gollux equips

    The reason is that in normal servers, if the rings and earrings could be bought multiple times, people would flood the market with them.

    You might want to amend your suggestion to say *in Reboot*.

    (And I believe the same suggestion has been made in the past).

    It would be really cool if the shop reset once a year.

    I made that suggestion in the past a few times. Some players actually level new characters just to farm Gollux equips. I admire the effort!

    Ahhh yeah. I guess that'll effect normal servers, but what's the difference between buying it multiple times and doing it on multiple characters O: ? I mean I'd still be happy if they limited it to like 3 per character. Not even resetting it.

    once a year is a bit long of a wait ; _ ;. Since you're a VFM and I don't really know much about posting on here, how often do Devs even listen to these suggestions? Are they just like "we hear you. but we aren't going to do it" Because that's what it feels like most of the time. This change doesn't really come at a cost to Nexon themselves like when they added Buff Reezers to Reboot. It's I guess a "quality of life" thing.

    The difference is that buying it multiple times takes 4-5 days of maybe 10 minutes each, per item (if you can clear Hell Gollux), while creating a new character and leveling up and gearing it so it can fight gollux and then collecting coins on easy/normal mode takes at least two weeks of at least an hour a day. It's way more tedious.

    Then why can we buy AbsoLab/Arcane Umbra equips mulitple times? ,point is the items should not have a set limit on the amount of times it can be purchased just like Absolab and Arcane equipment doesn't have any.

    PS. i don't know whether it has a purchase limit in JMS/TMS/CMS. ( Japan,Taiwan,China MapleStory Regions ) ( gollux originates from JMS )

    PPS. it takes a long time to do the gollux pre quests as well, and it even takes time to farm gollux dailiy, but what i'm trying to say is that if the purchase limit is removed,it should be removed in all servers and not only in reboot, the fact that you can purchase it it normal servers doesn't justify it to be purchasable multiple times in reboot alone.

    TL;DR: Make Gollux Equips be purchasable mulitple times ( without a limit ) just like AbsoLab and Arcane Umbra equipment currently are ( in all worlds )
