Event Ring Issues

Over the last few events, we had been a slimmer choice of event rings. The Choice Event Ring coupon only Offers Awake, Glory Justicar and Tenebris Exhibition rings. This is such a small selection of rings compared to the number of released event rings such as SS Master Ring, Chaos Ring, Synergy Ring. This makes it harder to have a enough rings for different setups such as Meso%, Drop% and Stat (temporary placeholder until they are strong enough to get rings from bosses or get them to a decent standing.)

3 ring choices isn't that good.

We used to have more rings to choose from aside from just Awake, Tenebris and Justicar.

Another thing worth noting is there is a lack of ways of obtaining enhancement materials for some rings. This mainly a Reg Server issue. Some rings have a low base stat such as the Glory and Awake and they come with scrolls which some some rings such as Vengeful and Cosmos have NO STAT and rely on using 20 Vengeful Stones and Cosmos Atoms. I know when you redeem the first 2 rings, they come clean and their scrolls are included, but the last 2 come clean and you need to scroll them 20 times. It would be great if the scrolls for Cosmos Rings and Vengeful Rings can be obtained as well as the other 2 rings that come with scrolls included but not applied when redeemed. The reason the scrolls should be a standalone option is because even if all rings came bundled with their respective scrolls, people with the same ring cannot redeem it because the game prevents you from having 2 of the same rings. A player who has a decent potential but poor scrolling wouldn't throw out a 2L Drop clean Awake just to get a new one that has scrolls.

Here is what I'm proposing:

1. Having Event Ring Coupons feature ALL the event rings so its possible to have multiple rings for different uses.
2. Sell Cosmos Atoms, Vengeful Stones and Awake Ring Scrolls along with its Tenebris version as standalone scrolls in event shops to allow players to fix incomplete items without the need of starting from scratch. This had been done in past so I have no clue why it has been discontinued. (This is a Reg Server issue)

I know Event Rings are not BiS, but they are excellent for drop and meso rings. Having more than 8 rings available to choose from allows players to experiment on a rings that aren't be utilized in meso or drop gear such as aiming for 2L Drop/Meso or hybrids without messing either setup. Having scrolls available would allow players to finish incomplete rings.

Above is the vengeful ring comparing its clean for its scrolled stats. The purple stone is the "scroll" for it.

If our event shops looked like this, players would be able to fix incomplete rings.

This isn't a new idea, but following old tradition of previous events

    I'm also surprised other rings rings such as Tempest Rings, Pinnacle and Unleashed Rings aren't classified as "Event Rings" so Event Ring Cubes cannot be used on them. These rings were introduced over a decade ago during the Tempest and Unleashed update (Pinnacle Ring and Unleashed Ring came with Unleashed update.) It would be great if Event Ring Cubes can be used on them since they were the original "event rings." Come to thing of it, they were first pottable rings after Arkarium's Eternal Rings and the Almighty Ring.
