RNG boxes tokens

Since asking for a removal of the current rng boxes would be impossible here's my suggestion to try making them work less like a cash grab
that can just steal dozens / hundreds of bucks from a customer without a warranty that says they'll get what they want at some point.
These boxes can actually make players feel like they are getting cheated on and so way less willing to buy stuff from the game shop in the future and to support the game when needed.
So here's my suggestion to make it look more fair if not a win-win : how about making every rng box drop the usual random item plus 1 box specific token ? After a certain amount of tokens is reached you automatically get the item you want ( I'd suggest to make the number of emp needed to reach said amount of tokens be the same as the equivalent emp value of the normal version of the item plus its 50% ) .
The seller company gets more buyers and customers feel like they haven't thrown money and so more willing to support the game.
Posting this idea cause I think it's a nice one and despite the huge amount of time it took some players voices are finally getting heard ( about walk , flying mounts , costumes only inventory, guild houses...somehow...I still doubt we'll see some things such as character housing or getting to finish the old story quest or even see some of the amazing landscapes shown in the old artworks, won't complain....the game changes and evolves and it's not always negative, we'll get to see something else . )
I'd like someone from EME staff to look at this if possible and consider talking about it with Blue Hole's team , I'd also like some other players to comment and / or post constructive suggestions , critiques about this idea.

Peace ~ <3

    RNG boxes are the reason I haven't put any money down on this game. I was planning on giving them 20 of my hard earned money but this greedy cash grab made me think twice. Oh well, their loss. Everything is too expensive on this game anyway. It shouldn't cost over 30 bucks and sometimes 40 for a stupid outfit.

    Maybe consider the Ice Burner system from Elsword

    For all the RNG Ice burner boxes you get a random chance for the actual gear, + a "shard" like item. This is permanent item so you can get them from any set. After a certain amount of boxes, you can trade the shards for the any Ice Burner piece from a merch

    Then again their cosmetics have stats.
