Dear SE, Reps, and fellow players. I would like to present an adjustment to Voidwatch that I am sure would make many people happy, increase the amount of VW done, and increase Heavy Metal supply for players. I present to you, the point ticket system!
1 ticket is awarded for each win against a VWNM. Tickets are exclusive to a NM, and are locked to the rifts in the area the NM is spawned in. For instance, when fighting Kaggen in Qufim Island, you will get a ticket for Kaggens items only upon winning a fight. Also you may only spend these tickets when at one of these rifts. If you are in Lower Delkfutt's Tower you will not be able to spend Kaggen's tickets, instead they will be Akvan's tickets, and only ones retrieved from Akvan may be spent.
Tickets should be just as cruor is, when finishing a VW fight, you will be told the amount you have with the 1 you earned. With enough blue light, such as 500%+, you would earn 2 tickets. Also the amount of tickets you have are only seen at the proper NPCs, or rifts.
To show an example of how a chart would look for drops, I will use Kaggen and its drops.

Example:Kaggen
Noteable Drops
-Mekira Meikogai
-Phasmida Belt
-Kaggen's Cuticle
-Mantis Eye
-Heavy Metal
Ticket Buy List
-Mekira Meikogai = 100 Tickets
-Phasmida Belt = 75 Tickets
-Kaggen's Cuticle = 40 Tickets
-Pulse Cell: Me = 25 Tickets
-Heavy Metal = 10 Tickets
-Mantis Eye = 5 Tickets
Trade List
-Mekira Meikogai = 25 Tickets
-Phasmida Belt = 20 Tickets
-Mantis Eye = 2 Tickets
With this system, R/EX gear does not goto waste, rather it can be used to provide more tickets to go toward the rewards you are pursuing. Items will not seem unattainable, or severely luck based, they will allow players to obtain the items they wish given time and determination! Tickets will only count for the NM in question, you will not be able to have tickets from Kaggen used for Akvan drops, however, this is why Heavy Metal is in the buy list, it provides a use for tickets even if one already obtains all drops while having tickets left over. This would also heighten the supply of Heavy Metal, making Emp95 easier to obtain.
Adding to this, with the new update allowing "Obtain All" to ignore R/EX items in the case you have it already, these could automatically be changed to tickets, allowing for fast disposal of gear unneeded, and giving the player better rewards.
Please give feedback on this idea, tell me what you think is good, bad, or what could be added, I will attempt to update this post with more ideas, to attempt to improve it to where we may get a response from reps, and potentially see a better reward system in Voidwatch, to avoid all of the poor people going 1/200, 1/500, or even 1/1000, on NMs.
