Increase of Nodestone drop rate please!

Hello, guys.
When I do the daily quest for arcane symbols, I use the following items/buffs: greed pendant, spider familiar and winter drop rate buff (I don't have any pets to boost the drop rate). With these, I get one nodestone per 30 minutes. I don't know how other players obtain nodestones, but getting one nodestone with above items/buffs in 30 minutes is insane. Nexon seriously needs to increase the drop rate for nodestone.
What do you guys think?

    @noobboi , Lucky Winter and Spider don't stack, and Greed pendant does not affect nodestone drop rate (it only applies to equipment). So really you only have the Lucky Winter drop boost (I am not sure whether it's 1.5x or 2x, I've heard conflicting information).

    Good News: Nodestone drop rate will be doubled in Reboot.
    Bad News: We won't get it until the BEYOND update.
