Have Thunder Ring/Emerald Belt Drop Rates Changed?

Just asking after recently noticing that at least on US West, the price of Emerald belts seem to have fallen from 8-16 -> 4-6, while Thunder rings have dropped about 1/3 of their traditional value. There also seem to be a higher quantity of both in general (but especially Emerald belts). Just curious on your thoughts.

    Prices dropped similarly on east, I think it's because people aren't buying them to yolo Subdued es on now that Abomination belts are a thing.

    There has also been a sudden influx of these 3* accessories from the redeemer boxes.

    Interesting (yeah, I'm not even close to starting that yet), how many of those would you say you average per clear? Also, any idea on how many groups are clearing Neam on a weekly basis?

    Everyone gets one redeemer chest per clear but the drop rate on those accessories are relatively high. A lot of people are getting clears at this point and the people who are clearing can potentially do it 4x a week.

    I recently got a 2 star peridot from misty summit. Well great fricking timing after all the fruitless farming I did in the past because the thing has suddenly become a white elephant. Not only does nobody want to pay for the thing but I've wasted 8 m gold on trying to post it in the mp.

    1 ODM from 10 boxes, 8 are gold pouches, other is passport
    doesn't seem that high to me.

    Most boxes from neam give coins, accessories is not that common. And even when it does give accessories, it can be garbage like black pearl earrings :p

    - People only need so many rings. With the lack of new players, older ones will eventually have the rings and not need more.
    - Lvl 70/80 rings are very poor in cost effectiveness without enchants. With how inaccessible these enchants are without scroll events... not that much reason to get them right now.
    - With new rings on the horizon, not surprising the prices will drop. Belt prices dropped hard when abom belt became reasonably attainable.
    - Nexon did pretty well at combating gold bots in the past months; inflation on NA servers decreased significantly. Prices nowdays are only a few times higher than EU/KR for most things; opposed to 10x+ higher in the past.

    Those factors contribute to a steady drop in value for older belt/rings.

    I don't think the price drop is because of Nexon banning bot, but because of the seal shop, coin scroll event and s3 dropping scroll. Everything is easily accessible (minus accessory scrolls) so they are all dropping. Meanwhile The Dead's price is still high, and Subdued skyrocketting due to new belts. When lvl 95 hit with new lvl 90 rings, The Dead price going to hit the sky too XD
