Runes of Magic US / AU

Been thinking this for a while, but after some chats about the thought more today, I came up with approx numbers.

This is my SUGGESTION:

Have a NPC outside of Arcanium Chamber that will trade boss dropped mats, for essences from the instance the boss mats came from.

Purple mats traded in would give you 10 earth essences, and orange would give you 25 earth essences.

Same would go for the mats from water/fire/chaos.

Also, have an NPC that trades the opposite way...

Where players could exchange earth essences for boss dropped mats, at the same exchange rate.

This would help with the awful drop rate essences currently have making the item far too expensive for purchase or worth while to farm. But would also give small guilds a chance to farm the mobs together and obtain the boss mats used in crafting the gear from NPC trade, rather clearing the instance. At the same time not making running the instance still useless to endgame guild because it would still be faster to gain rewards with higher risk, ex. clearing the instance.

That is all Would just be nice to see everyone working more together on the trading of these materials for more pulls across servers and guilds alike.

I considered that, but honestly first boss can be farmed so fast that no one would bother doing a full run over first boss farm if purple were worth so much :s But honestly I'd take almost any exchange rate, this is just preference

Well my idea is that it tradeable both ways... so that EVERYONE can get the items, just with a little more time spent farming if you cant clear the instance. So farm 25 earth essences > get Orange last boss mat, meaning end game guilds would farm first, exchange for 20 essences, then trade those essences in for oranges ^.^ thats why I thought orange should be worth many more essences then purples.
