Increasing Amethyst Fragments availability

Suggesting for an increase in mob density for Oz Dun 02, and current instances that reward amethyst fragments to be increased.
Reason: Now that interest for pvp/bg/woe is picking up, people are wanting to gear their characters and the most popular pieces of equipment requires Amethyst Fragments from Oz dun 02. However, to create a piece of equipment it currently requires almost 5000 fragments. To get fully geared, it would take roughly 12-18 hours of farming (~ 800/1200 frags/gum) just to fully gear up a character.
Instances such as villa of deception gives a measly 15-20 from the instance.

My personal opinion is that the map is quite mind numbing with the current mob density.

In my experience farming on maps with an increased in mob density, I personally found those maps to be enjoyable to farm in. I think it would be appreciated if the mob density is increased in oz dun 02 as it would greatly help out players who are wanting to gear for pvp/bg/woe.

Increasing rewards of instances such as villa of deception also gives an alternative way for players to get amethyst fragments aside from questing, and good old farming.

Thank you for considering!

Maybe rather than buffing spawn, just reduce the cost of enchanting by around 33-35%

@Aqua lets just do both, mob density + decrease enchanting cost lol. One can hope.

Dunno but - isn’t the game about farming to fear up?
Anyways - already got a change in mob density with a patch last year.

@boembchen Yes, but comfortable farming is also a thing. Progress also feels nice. Most aren’t 15 anymore, and burning hours on outdated gear is not worth our time. Why does this game need to feel like such a burn out? I would prefer the pleasure of reaching a goal, rather than gasping my way to it, and being left with absolutely nothing but the gear, by the end of the venture. I’ve said this before, this is an outdated piece of gear, and we already have the wacky bonanza of grading things and burning zenny like it’s meaningless to even own it.

@boembchen I understand but the thing is, the cost to make a fully-enchanted gray wolf armor is almost the same cost (if u buy from market) as a fully-enchanted nebula armor lol!

Sure, but you have to keep in mind that we now have access to Snow Flower gear too.
Snow Flower which is more or less equivalent, yet available for a lot less of a hassle.
There’s litterally no reason to leave Gray Wolf gear as is.

@Aqua this is the main problem. I’m not sure why this person and another continue to make the same statement, when it doesn’t make sense to farm for something that is obviously an inferior model. (by a lot after grading).

This would also help new players, who see 50m as a number that is quite difficult to obtain, and might consider it a huge grind. The whole set, being almost 2 generations worse now, and being a level 1 armor, is just unacceptable to have to pay a few hundred million for the set.

I literally used illusion armor until I got Nebula. Out of necessity, I picked up the gray wolf shoes just to get the FCT. It was not worth it to farm all these level 1 armor sets, because you’re paying millions for obsolete garbage, so it’s skipped to save zenny.

This is not balanced, and as I stated very early on, this needed a change, because it’s not worth wasting your time on. I’d like to make some early gear for leveling, but the price tags are just nonesense.
