Wow. Sneak was easymode to get, considering it dropped off newbie mobs.
Was one of my favorites. Casually club a Yagudo Acolyte or Amethyst Quadav, *bang* Sneak scroll. Invisible didn't show up until mid-20's mobs, on the other hand...the reason Phalanx/Utsu: Ni go for so much is the supply is vastly outdone by demand. Drop em into a brown casket pool someplace like Valkrum Dunes, problem solved. And hey, having all those players roving around obliterating the mobs would make subjob items so much easier to come by...

Seriously? You're going to call me out for Sneak being "easymode"? Let me get to my point, then...
Remember when the dungeons were revamped for Grounds of Valor? Most of the mobs that dropped Invisible were removed. All the good mid-20s farming spots simply don't exist anymore. It was a huge oversight on the part of the devs and I'm glad they fixed it.
*nods* I was just comparing what is reasonable vs. what wasn't. Sneak was newbie area fodder, Invisible was a tougher spell to grab and with the GoV changes, more so- but they didn't change areas like Castle Oztroja or Beaudeaux where the mobs were still there and the spells still available. It's still possible to this day to go there and whack a mob for your spell.
Stuff that's dropping off lower level BCNMs only, however....ouch ouch ouch. That's a matter of lower level content that people simply aren't doing much anymore, since the game's gotten increasingly topheavy. Those sorts of spells need to be moved to areas where they're farmable outside BCNMs, whether via adding them to NM drops someplace or a vendor. When it takes finding a trio of people with the seals and the inclination to bother, that's not nearly as common anymore. I agree with you, making spells more available in light of the GoV changes was the right thing to do.
Now, if they'd be so kind as to fix the chest spawns and low-level NM's they left stuck in the middle of L80+ content...was that Moth Axe really so uber you had to surround the chest with IT++ mobs that would make a party seven times your level take it seriously? ^ ^

OK, I changed my mind. I want a Kupon that will instantly promote one job to 99. #CheeseSandwich
This Year's list came out. I and everyone who has seen is is baffled so far.

WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?
Pulse cells?
Pulse cells?
PULSE CELLS?
You cant even be bothered to give us the proper item anymore?You have to make it harder to even get the item we actually wanted? That's just ridiculous and cruel and looks as if you're outright mocking and/or taunting your players.
Nq salvage2 bodies are also unimpressive compared to the +1 .
Empyrian Armour as rank 2? Really?
That stuff has been considered easy for over a year. At least drop it down a rank or two. Something that can be done in less than a day does not befit a rank 2 prize.
Ridill and sagasinger are being overranked.
The entire list is just.... If i didn't know any better i'd think you guys tried to make the list bad.
I know this is not the first time this happens, but I still don't understand the logic between putting the 10k currency coin on 1st place, together with a kupon that gives you an already completed weapon.
Huh?
Shouldn't currency be put on 2nd place, together with Cat's eye? (i.e. 30k Alex)
Bonanza Kupon EA too looks very out of place, should have been rank 3, no higher than that.

And the autumn of life has finally come
with the promise of winter thaw.
