Add elite mob drops to bosses

As the title says, Currently there really isnt any huge benefit from bossing even the highest tier of bosses (cvell, cpierre, hellux) aside from the one off cube you get. Do you think it would be a good idea or just a way to move forward by adding elite mob bosses drops to other bosses such as Gollux, RA bosses, Hilla etc.

Discuss please

[quote=Lecarde]Honestly though, if this were done teh drop rates would be similar to that of cubes (I have actually seen more cubes drop in 2 weeks of daily bossing then I have seen a CSS, which is only 1% for ****s sake, drop from any boss in all of my years of playing) then it wouldn't help much. It would just make it easier for the extremely funded, those who can afford %drop gear, to get extra money by manipulating yet another market. And that is the last thing we need right now, consolidation of the mesos even more into the hands of the merchants[/quote]

yeah those CSS that are 1% really have no actual value. Also would you rather extremely funded people to 'manipulate' the market or the botters?

Easy, make these drops not affected by %drop. Every Reward Point boss you finish, you can open a chest (like the one for CQueen and CPierre) that can drop one of these.
Make the chest rate ~1/10 for the Protection Scrolls, and 1/3 for the CSS or Innocence scrolls.

[quote=Simroh1]Thats not a bad idea. I'm sure that will give people motivation to go bossing other than just reward points. I might also add possible small (~50?) amounts of NX? That will be awesome as a bonus =D[/quote]

Each boss already gives 50 reward points which is pretty much 50 NX in a much more restricted form. Adding a 50 NX reward as well would render the RP system pointless derp

Has to be very harshly tweaked or else it'll be impossible to make money again. Then again the current money makers are botters which don't make it any better.

Probably falls into Nexon's "No Fun Allowed" policy

Great idea! I do find myself only bossing in hopes of a cube dropping. everything else I just npc because they're pretty worthless once you have your main equips.

It is a good deal because the market for protection and slate scrolls is being dominate by botters so...
If Nexon add this, I would do boss daily for these scrolls. So hard to make meso nowaday

Drops like Innocence scrolls, protection scrolls, clean slates, potential stamps, epic pot scrolls.
