Better Returning Promotion Boxes

There's so many promotion boxes in the game that it's nearly impossible to get items from a box released even a year ago. Items just fade out of existence because the number of boxes added into the game is finite and the people holding those items either don't wanna give em up or they quit the game, putting their inventory in purgatory. I have a solution!

We add a new NPC from Spiral Headquarters who'll sell EVERY prize box in the game. However, there's a catch, you'll can only buy his boxes with "Prize Tokens." Each box will cost 50 tokens, now how do you get these tokens you may ask?

How to obtain Prize Tokens
1. Clearing Prestige Missions
2. Reaching a terminal, (must start from depth 0, depth 8, or depth 18 - otherwise it won't count)
3. Trading in boss tokens at brinks
4. Learning a new recipe
5. Crafting an item. (Won't give any for 1* crafts)
6. Uncommon drop from Heating
7. Maybe some other ways you guys can think of?

As for new boxes, they'll appear here after 2-3 months of release. So people who purchase still get the item early! This will really benefit the game's economy. please consider this Grey Havens.

I vote no, because I want to force more people to spend money on the game and think this will diminish their desire to do so.

I also have low self esteem and derive a sense of self worth from virtual cosmetics, and don't want others to have them because then I wouldn't be special, and if I'm not special then I am just garbage and everyone will know.

I have one massive thumbs up for this idea. Could you imagine how cool it would be to have access to old boxes like the Nemesis and Rose Regalia prize boxes back in the game again? Also it would most definitely help SK economy, as more of the rare accessories would come into market, people would likely start spending money so that they can get them instead of having to grind for them, and the game will become more enjoyable for people who want costumes but are limited without money.
Here's an add-on to that. Why don't they have it cycled? Like once every week to a month the boxes you can buy change, that way it keeps people guessing! For example, let's say its released, and the first boxes available are the solstice, nemesis, celestial with vortex, and ancient prize boxes. Then then the nest week or month or so a new cycle of say celestial with saber, rose regalia original, surge, and surprise boxes are put in, and it continues to cycle and change on schedule.

Honestly this would not be extremely difficult to have in the game. I don't imagine that it has an extraordinary amount of coding that has to take place, since they have all of the boxes already on file, and they mostly need to add the tokens in, and add the merchant (With cycling boxes hopefully) into a place in haven.

Cool idea Rakaraka, you get brownie points and a thumbs up from me :)
