Nobody voted on having the most recent installment of Rose Regalia be an exact repeat of last time.

But has there been a promo you would truly like to see return?
Did you miss Hunter or Surge series? Maybe you wanted to get a weapon reskin from one of the old boxes?
Or how about a Mixmaster? Not enough Divine Gear halos on the market?
How about a Gun Puppy battle sprite?

What promo would you really like to see make a come back?

Summer splash. Nothing beats

Summer splash. Nothing beats Soaked Aura.

Oh wait, I do want the Overcharged Mixmaster... Perhaps the Confection Box.

Gremlin Prize Box

That Gun puppy Drakon is what I covet most...if only Drakon could have a craftable reskin one like the other two sprites.

Hunter. I still haven't managed to buy a Hunter Brigandine and I've tried for so long ... (Then again, now I'm not really playing anymore anyway.)

I liked the Dreadful aura and was my only reason to keep saving my energy, but at this point after looking how other games handle their promos and then i remember this one... im going to say: no thanks

was enough of promo boxes and the RNG behind them, i think i dont need anymore "lottery box" promos, when promos used to be "energy + boxes" was fine i mean 22k E for an aura?... fine at least not going to spend like 200 bucks just for an aura which in this case is the dreadful aura for 200k E or how about a reskin gun puppy was being sold for 200k E too?

I could go for the "Return of Rose Regalias returns again: the arrival returning: the return: episode 3¼ prize box"

<3

But to be serious, I'd love to see costume and accessories recolors to return, from all variations together. I never had the chance to hold onto surge and hunter stuff. Would be cool

Yeah, I feel like although

Yeah, I feel like although promo boxes should return, there should also be definite energy or crown sinks in the game at the same time so that P2P's can have a guaranteed chance of what they want to buy. Nobody likes gambling, losing, and not getting what they want. It's even more facetious when in the face of this "limited item" problem, we the content payers are told to simply sell what we didn't like from our boxes at fire sale prices and try to bid war on people who will inherently sell there items at extortion prices simply because they have the monopoly.

But that's not what we're here to talk about. > : P

What promo items were so good looking and awesome they deserve recirculation?
I honestly think Hunter was a sleeper hit; the game lacks green clothing and when it first came out people criticized it for being a simple recolor with UV tickets filling 50% of the odds. That's a joke.

Also we are at the mercy of whoever decides what goes on SD sales, and so far it's only been accessories, with the occasional rare promo shield or $50 elephant hat. It'd be nice if they really mixed it up with old promo costumes.

Speaking of which...

It would be really neat if we could get a monthly "costume depot" sale where recolored costumes are sold via the supply depot. Like, February could bring all base lovely costumes back, or perhaps every day cycle out the items? Sell the lovely promo box alongside this in the supply depot for energy so if you want to take a gamble you can, or you can pay up extra energy and get the item you specifically want.

Either that or have one costume item and two accessories, priced accordingly. Rare items (less than 5% chance) will never be on the depot, and must be unboxed.

But back to the topic at hand, I'd love to see lovely come back. It's not an old promo, so to speak, but I still loved it. Storm promo would be great too.

Honestly I don't really care.

I mean I want a gun puppy drakon, and a cool key that sticks out of my back and a celestial sabre as much as the next knight, but I don't want it badly enough to actually pay for it or I would already have one. As long as they don't make any new weapons or gear.

Rose regalia. And I don't mean this mere copy of real glory that original Rose Regalia had. I mean original Rose Regaila - attached to CE buy.

Electric prize boxes! What do you need anymore?

Only a fire prize box, and then all 4 standard statuses have been done (Vile, Glacial, Electric). What's next...

Surprise boxes - those things

Surprise boxes - those things were great since pretty much every unbox would be an older accessory/costume tough to find on the market.

Lol I do want those to come back, but only so they can rectify their terrible blunder and change the name to "Surprize box" instead.

Gremlin Prize Boxes, for sure. I want a permanent gremlin disguise, though. None of this 30 days business.

How about..

Ancient. I loved it. I want more. MORE DAMN IT, MOOOOOOAR- *coughs* in all seriousness, if they brought those back with some new accessories and costumes (and more than just two) in it, I'd be stoked. Plus I'd like to see them put more prize boxes for sale on the Supply Depot.
