Hi. I noticed that for the black friday big spender event you get a tyrant armour and Fafnir weapon at random from the boxes. Its not fair that you give these out at random in Reboot since we can not trade with others or in the account. I don't want to get a Fafnir for spending my own money that i cant even use because it's not for my class. Please make it so you get a Fafnir weapon and tyrant armor from the boxes for your class instead of one at random in REBOOT world only please. Thank you.

    In Reboot, you're not supposed to get gear for spending money, at all.

    Its not P2W its an event that people in reboot participated in its not like you can trade anyway i really dont see any harm in the game actually giving you class specific items from events?

    Do you not understand the concept of Reboot world? Many users play Reboot so they don't have to pay real money to upgrade gear. This is paying for Tyrant/Fafnir gear, even if the item is NOT your class.

    This is the equivalent of having tyrants in cash shop for 70k NX.

    It's not an event like the MapleWatch thing, where it doesn't take NX to participate. This event was only open to Cash users. In this event you were told: pay real-world money and get a Tyrant, and if you pay more you'll get both a Tyrant and a Fafnir. That's very clearly against the principle of Reboot.

    Your not paying to upgrade people bought nx for things the wanted persuaded by the bonus item you'll receive for doing so people didnt go out and buy nx spend it on useless items just to get the bonus.

    That's exactly the problem. People paid NX specifically in order to get certain gear that is difficult to get in-game.
    The Reboot server is supposed to give no advantage to paying customers. It's not just about enhancement, it's also about the clean Best-in-Slot gear itself.

    I agree that Nexon should have said so from the beginning. But they're too greedy, and just keep looking for ways to get pay2win into Reboot.

    You guys are so annoying, seriously. I agree with u that REBOOT you shouldn't be able to get stuff for paying money but Nexon is giving it to people who have spent NX. Its an event. All i'm saying is if they are going to give me a Fafnir/ Tyrant equip, it should be for my class and not random since i would have no use for it in Reboot cause i cant trade. And since they did not change the details of the event sooner (before i spent my NX) so that it was for non-reboot worlds only or something, i should either get a refund or the equips for my class. Thank you

    i spent over 200$ during the event on Black Friday hair Style Coupons, so don't think i was just doing it for the fafnir weapon/tyrant. It just happened cause i kept getting the wrong hairstyles.

    Why should you get a refund if you say you'd have spent the money anyway, for the hairstyle?

    Anyways, i will get what i and all Reboot players who qualified for the big spender event deserve and that is a Fafnir weapon and tyrant equip for our chosen character's class. Its only fair.

    There's a 1/5 chance I can actually use it, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

    The Tyrant gear coming out for this event comes in 5 flavors, 1 for each subclass (Warrior, Magician, Thief, Bowman, Pirate). Cybunny is implying that, because of RNG being the sole decider in this box, the likelihood of people getting the equip for their class is about 20% (40% if Xenon, who counts as either a Thief or Pirate).

    Thats why i said they have to make it not random but for the class of the character you choose to open the box on in Reboot only since we literally cant do anything with it otherwise (trade in account to give to other characters who can use it or to others for meso or the right class ones etc)
