Transfer Hammer Improvements
The transfer hammer is great, the best addition to help unfunded players to date. But it can be a real pain to use. Requiring an equivilant equipment piece no more than 10 levels higher (and no less than 1 level higher, rip empress gear) means you have to slow your grind to make sure you don't out level the enemies before getting all of the equips.
It's not so bad in early levels because the equipment drop rate in theme dungeons is turned up to 11, and because the hammer gives you a 20 level gap because level 50, 70, and 90 gear no longer drops (reliably) from monsters. Getting level 100 and beyond armour requires a lot more luck and can sometimes take quite a while to collect a full set, even if it's not for your class. This wasn't a problem a while back when we had MPE with its crazy equipment drop rate but that's gone now.
So now is the time more than ever to change the restrictions on the transfer hammer. Rather than requiring the new equipment to be 1-10 levels higher and taking a star in return, instead take a star for each 10 levels of difference between the equipment. This way it'd be safe to miss a few tiers of gear, it'd just cost more stars to make the transfer. It'd also be a great way to upgrade all of those age old 6% stat tempest accessories.
Also consider allowing us to transfer to equips of the same level, ie pensalir to empress and Japanese to fafnir.
Pro-tip: Purple senior gear drops from the teddy bears in the first floor of the ludibrium clock tower.

I would like to chime in. I 15% traced scrolled my dagger and transferring it to an absolab or terminous (of course absolab is better) would fill in all the slots of the 160 weapon with the 100% traces which will be weaker. I am pretty sure people who primed their weapons will get won't have reprime their weapons. It would be a huge pain to retrace my absolab (if i ever plan to)
In order to give my mules a "godly" epic Vellum Helmet (not the CRA one,) I need to 70% trace the vellum helmet to my desired stats, random scroll the Senior cap and 5 star it, and then transfer to a 80 hat and finally to vellum.
This system is only really good for people for have good epics and a gear that is higher level and scrolled nicely. It isn't good for people for moving scrolled stats to potted items since the potential will be overwritten and the scrolling is dictated by the target item. My mules possess some 70% scrolled VIP weapons and i do have some epic weapons with 6% ATT. When I get the time, i will move those potentials to give those VIPs an extra 6% ATT potential without having to retrace those items.
