    That literally doesn't make any logical sense. I'm going to assume it's a mistranslation.

    Please fix ambu cape trading so I can fully augment in 1 trade instead of 20 per augmentation. Thank you.

    It's not a mistranslation unfortunately. When they made the system, there were several things missing for it to have been safe for the devs to allow multiple upgrades per trade. Like no way to change upgrade path IIRC without restarting from 0.

    They've also said that it would take as much work to accomplish it now, as it would to implement new battle content... It would be easier for them to delete the current NPC and replace it with a new one built from scratch, than it would be to change anything not designed to be changing monthly anyway.

    That makes even less sense. I'm going to assume that's a mistranslation as well.

    No mistranslation. It's the way it was designed. Doesn't matter whether you like the answer if it's true, or official.

    I don't believe that it's actually possible to design something that..awkward.

    Anyways.

    Please fix ambu cape trading so I can fully augment in 1 trade instead of 10-20 per augmentation. Thank you.

    Well, it happened. So it doesn't matter if you believe it did or not. Far from the first time that content/gear was more convoluted than actually necessary too. :/ (Have you ever made a completed Monstrosity torque? I haven't been able to find full completed stats on those, and believe that the lack of info is due to the overly complex system making it undesirable to even bother completing the content.)

    The official line on this IS that they don't want to, and are unable to due to technical reasons, make the change requested.

    I'd be far more surprised if they started working on this, than if the announced new battle content provides even more awesome capes that utterly obsolete Ambuscade capes. ^^;; They DID say it would be easier to make a new event than to fix Ambuscade after all. Maybe it's a straight up replacement. XD
