A request to exchange types of Wondrous Tales certificates

Since the release of 7.1, I've done multiple weeks straight of WT in an attempt to obtain silver certificates to buy the 5 new framer kits, which cannot be listed on the marketboard unlike many of the other items available for exchange.

As much as I don't mind doing the WT itself, it's rather frustrating to only keep walking away with a bronze certificate to show for my efforts, even after spending hours farming for second chance points in an attempt to shuffle the stickers.

I would like to ask if it's possible to put a sort of "trade up" function into Khloe's shop.

Such as, trading 10x bronze for 1 silver or 10 silver for 1 gold.

Not quite requesting for something that would upset the applecart for anyone else selling mounts/minions but also would like to have at least something to work toward my intended goal instead of praying to the rng lords every week that I would be blessed with 2 lines only to yet again walk away with disappointment and feelings of bitterness toward an npc.

Am I being sour? Perhaps. But I figured a simple request couldn't hurt, either. :)

it'd be nice. i've been getting cucked out of three lines for years at this point personally. but i imagine people in this community are going to pushback against this because you're apparently meant to get a sense of pride and accomplishment out of purely rng mechanics or something.

farming second chance points helps with this, it's not worth going past 7 stickers unless you know you have a 30% or higher chance to get 2 lines

I wish we could get 2nd chance points easier and books lasted until you complete them. Limit to 1 book a week is still fine as it is. Unless you are running Mentor roulettes getting 2nd chance tokens gets harder by the day outside of content launch days.

They made khloe a pain in the ass to finish cause if you hit 100 now you can't do easy ARR trials anymore...and you have to fish for 2 lines...it'd be nice if you can upgrade the stuff. I'm sick of being trolled by the child

I think it'd be nice to be able to trade in commendations like that, and would help people get some of the rewards they want
I've only ever had three lines once, and I probably won't have that happen again anytime soon but it has some nice rewards

at least with requiring the 10 or so silver commendations it'd still be something of a grind because if you are extremely unlucky you'll have to end up buying the silver wih bronze, and then the gold with silver which would take awhile

10 bronze to silver and 10 silver to gold would satisfy me. Honestly unsure why this isn't a thing already.

Y'know what, yeah. Please let us upconvert Wonderous Tails certificates.

10 bronze = 1 silver, 10 silver = 1 gold would be great.

Instead, you have easy HW trials. They go down in around a minute unless you end up with Thordan or Bismarck.
Then do the 4 dungeons you have access to and some raids/alliance raids.

Even the SB trials/raids are pretty reliable to solo now.

Subscription game + carrot on a stick trick.

I've ... Never had issues with it?
You can go into a map dungeon yourself, wait until you load in, and then leave. It counts as that space.
The HW raids are all soloable at this point.
Most of the Stormblood raids are soloable, and Rath EX is as well.

On OP's point I'd love to see something like that implemented.

The only Stormblood trial that can't be solo'd is Susano, because of the sword mechanic. But you still only need one more person for it, so it's still not difficult to get it done.

Especially since there’s nothing left in the bronze rewards I haven’t already got, and all the new stuff in the silver seems to require 2 certificates, so that’s 2 lines for 2 books. I don’t think I’ve ever even looked at the gold, because it feels impossible to me. I had a really good placement on my last book that could have been 3 lines, but somehow ended up not giving even one… *eyeroll*

Been farming for Silver for the Framer's Kits for weeks. I have none. As much as I understand, no matter how much I shuffle and try my best to raise my chances for at leat two rows, I might be stuck in unlucky hell and never ever get them.

So my suggestion is that we either get this token exchange or you make every new nice reward only available for 10 Gold Certificates so that I don't even get tempted to try this at all anymore, thanks.

I think what gets me the most is the other framer kits for expansion cities are easily accessible via gemstone shops, yet these ones are trapped behind wicked rng chance. IDK why someone would ever think it was a good idea to use Wondrous Tales instead of using a farmable token such as skybuilder scrips to be more in line with the other kits.

As of this reply, I'm still at 0 silver certificates toward my goal. Unluckiest ever, I suppose!

Plus you need 2 silver certificates, which means you need to be lucky in two weeks of WT. I am bad at math, but trying to obtain all of the Framer's kits looks like an impossible task to me.
