New Root Abyss Equip Drop

versus putting the same money toward players that are more invested in keeping the game alive.

Here, I'll draw a helpful diagram.



What keeps the game alive, fyi, is in the top right corner. And as a matter of fact, if they spend more $ on NX to cube their items, and less on mesos to afford overpriced equips, everybody except the gold farmers wins. Items are better and cheaper, prices are less inflated.

What keeps prices high is that thick arrow of mesos from gold farmers. (also that MS has no meso sinks)
