Cube Crafting

During Red, we'll be able to craft our own cubes, so the cost of cubing will have to drop, so the CS cubes stay competitive with
the price of crafted cubes.

If cubes aren't too hard to make like in KMS, then the cost of getting a good potential on equips will significantly drop, so any 'good pot' now will be more common in the coming months.

This means there will be massive deflation in coming months, and the gap between rich and poor will shrink. What do you guys think about this?

I really doubt there will be major deflation.

Just one question...

...who told you that? Because either I have incredibly stupidly good luck, or you're not looking in the right places.

@shadowind7: This could all be part of Nexon's closure of MS1, where everyone gets endgame gear and beats the Black Mage and rolls out MS2.

even if its not hard to get it will still be time consuming, if it take 2-3 hours to make 1 cube ummm most would just go for CS
but for sure this will over time bring down the price on items/ cuz a few free cube a day.. you are bound to get lucky sooner or later <3

you probably need 100 confusion frags for 1 cube

I believe you need 10 blades of chaos, obtained from either heartstone (and higher ranked heartstones) and/or that giant flower(and higher ranked giant flowers)
Hopefully, if they're at 100% rate (seeing as heartstone are rare to find in the first place) then they will be quite balanced, as the poor would have to work to bother finding the veins. I personally don't think Nexon should lower the gap by "giving" to the poor (semi)directly(seriously easy crafting recipe) or "taking" from the rich forcefully(lowering potential rank)

[quote=Articulatee]The materials aren't actually hard to get. Just based on the picture you need Superior Crystals (Necro & Reverse Equips Extracted), Superior Abrasives (In the Nack Shop), 5 or 10 Occult Fragments (Can't remember how many..and just extract occult cubes which are easy to get), and a new item that is found by mining. So really to make Artisan Cubes you'll only have to put in a little bit of extra work with finding the mining drop..or Nexon may even add a core for it for all you lazy people out there. The only difference with master cubes is that instead of 5% chance to rank up it's 10, the number of materials needed is doubled, and the mining drop is a harder to find version of the one needed for the artisan cubes.[/quote]

I thought it was herb drop, and where did you get the stats for the rank up % rate? Doesn't that make it the same as the cubes right now?

really doubt it
remember when fusing was all the craze? and how fast nexon nerfed that?
pretty sure they did something to make these cubed incredibly unreliable

IIRC, in KMS, Cubes are extremely hard to craft.
