#1 The Rewards for level 1,could also add True Gear. The reason --> many of the players recently starting,even with the karkaens and shutas have a rough time getting through high level BG,and are not prepared for HH at all,only if they are going crit,but we all know how much slower it is,and how boring can it be. None of us using True Gear anymore,so it shouldnt be a hard point for anyone to agree to help the ''real'' new coming players to get a better starting position,because if they give up,and get demotivated about start being rough,they will just leave and we wont have any new players.
#2 As many players said,lower the prices of EC items,there are not so many people currently anymore to have big market for wings,ring resistance stones,and this kind of CC items,so by lowering the CC amount they require,more people would buy it from you,so you would get more money out of it eventually instead of what it is currently.
