Here is what I know.
Ever since the beginning of Lineage2, there has always been these people who used real life money to buy game items. It didn't matter from whom, cheaters, botters, or the real players, it didn't matter; and even though NCsoft has been saying the RMT is ban-able offense, seriously there is nothing they can do when those people make their trade online via places like E-bay or Amazon.com...etc.
The fact is, there has always been, and will be people who use cash to get game items.
So, honestly? I don't think Nstore is that bad. It gives players more reliable & safe way to turn Real-Life-Money into game cash & items; and rather than losing revenue to outsiders, NC gets to keep the profit in the process.
However, what I don't like is... this gambling aspect of the Nstore Promos, especially those low chance ones. Well, gambling can be fun when it's an entertainment. The solution to this is very simple by the way. All they need to do is to play the gambling themselves before they release it, and see how they like it if they were the players themselves. I can say the same thing with game updates, too. Just test it before you release it!
I got some suggestions...
1. Sell Adena from Nstore.
2. Increase the Ingame Adena Drop: this will give chance to people who like to farm their adena. Most Ncoiners, however, they won't even bother picking up the adena anyways. It is essential to do this if you wanna sell Adena from Nstore, otherwise, you will have too many people QQing.

you are so naive.
If there is ONE thing that is well tested and thought out, it's the L2 Store and specially those gambling "events". If chances would be higher and everyone would get his desired pixels easy, why would he continue to spend?
Adding Adena to the store equals removing it.Prices will go sky high, since we've many mentally unstable players.For example you probably won't be able to hold the Adena to buy a 7s talisman.
Your ideas are like from a naive little kid.Also your topic name has no relation to what is actually written inside.
Actually I thought your post had merit. But online chat has gotten so far into flaming that people no longer look for the good in what you say, they just type random bats.hit back. The ingame prices will only stay high if people buy them at those prices. If you have a talisman in AH for 25b and it doesn't sell for over 2months, eventually you'll understand that we the players have no intention of buying it for that much. If you're a Pay-to-win player..Keep paying. The rest of us will wait until an event comes that will give us something close to what we want. If NCsoft put reasonable items for sell that some of us are willing to buy and sell to other players that works for me. NCSoft store is the best RMT in the game because its perfectly legal.
Oh my...you guys don't miss anything, do you? I am quite impressed by the level of mental sharpness displayed here! Yeah...the upper half and the lower half of my original post are two different things, i.e. upper half = introduction of facts, and the lower half = my own ideas & proposal for the Nstore, although I'd like to think they are kinda related but I guess I skipped a couple of steps little too fast.
As to the accusation that I made my post in the wrong section of L2 Forum, well...my question here is not the type of question seeking for some information or a simple game guidance. It's the type of question intended for a discussion(hopefully if anyone cares.)
Hmm...now I am wishing they just simply put the realistic price for all the game items at Nstore instead of making us gamble. Longing = $150, Seven Sign Talisman = $600, Insanity = $1,200? How about that? Simple and Straightforward!~ No more gambling non-sense!
I am not mentally unstable. I just happened to be a very serious and dedicated L2 player, that's all...although, with the busy situation at my work place, I don't get to play much these days; I am very serious when I play. Why do you hate me so much, Mixa?

Thanks for your support and sharing your thoughts.
Wth.... You should probably rename yourself to attention seeker. Every time is see a new thread by you i know it will be a cringe fiesta. As the others said you act like a naive kid nothing more
