So if you spent just an hour on cubing, that's already 144k of cubes (or ~131k in bundles). Chances are if you're spending 100 USD on unlimited cubes, you'll probably be cubing everything to unique, so it'd make more sense money-wise for it to last just one or two hours. (also consider that if you finish cubing your items, you'll probably help out your friends/guildies)
Mm. The intent was to save a drastic amount of money, much like the difference between buying stacks of VIP teleport rocks to travel everywhere, or even the 1 day hyper teleport rock, compared to the price on the 30 day hyper teleport rock. But yeah, technically, unless your luck is just THAT awful, even an hour or two should be enough to cube things up to where you want them.
Also, as I'm running around on my slayer using the exp events to finally level up to get the gratias ring and maybe make some money, I realized another possible suggestion. Increase the speed cap for everyone.
I used to hate playing anything but a thief in the early maple days, because I couldn't stand walking so slow... haste was a godsend. In this day and age, though, most of the classes have passive speed increases, and there are so many items available now that give pretty big speed boosts... and decent haste! I have decent haste on my slayer because a guildie had some warrior haste boots... and I've never had a reason to use it. Between a couple of equips and passive speed, I've always been at 140 speed, with plenty left over. Between my passive, equips, and decent haste, I could have 170 speed.
The transition from gliding to walking feels like I'm stuck in molasses, and I've definitely been spoiled by my wild hunter's 190 speed on Jaira--which also had a lot of speed left over.
While it does make sense to have gliding/riding a mount/certain classes faster than others, I also think it's silly that it's so easy to max the stat...it should be more challenging. Remember the days when you needed to scroll your shoes for speed and carry a red whip to get around faster, and your speed STILL wasn't maxed? I miss that!
Alternatively, stop putting speed on everything and reduce the bonuses current items have.
