Which also means they don't give a sh1t about others who don't participate the MAT. Yeah, reading comprehension is gud.

/not signed bad idea

/notsigned because I doubt anyone opens the chest to try and make a profit anymore unless they're addicted gamblers or stupid or a mix of both. I believe what you're trying to do OP is to cheapen a title.

/signed, not a bad idea

seriously, but the retention chances for even the best players would have to be very low not to cause any ridiculous economic imbalance.

I would base the retention rate on the various PvP titles, in a similar way the max balthazar faction cap is increasing - for every 10k increased faction pool gain +1% z-key retention chance.
This way very few would have the chance above 10%, vast majority of active PvP would have 5% or less (60k fb cap), and I think highest currently ingame would be around 15% (anybody got 170k fb cap or more?)
There could also be a cap at those 15% or even at 10%.

Idea is half decent but still, it's not quite the most elegant way for rewarding PvP'ers. The Z title itself is done wrong, If it was meant mainly for the MAT winners it should award points for purchasing rewards at Tolkano (keys or PvP items). This way high ranks of the title would be quite meaningful - everything must be self gained, but lower ranks would be accessible for anyone, through spending Faction or RPs from Xunlai House.

It's good to see people with reading comprehension here, but you certainly don't fall in that category.

Mainly = designed with mostly PvP in mind, with little care about PvE. I'm not so sure that attempting to act absolutely ignorant is helping your case.

How is selling Zkeys for 8 million+ gold, as a result of demand created by PvErs chasing the title, not aimed at monthly winners?

/notsigned for the idea

/signed for giving lutz major cookies cause posting plain links or screenshots without comments to prove a statement somebody doubted = pure ownage. gj!

It's worth whatever anyone is willing to pay for it.

If the idea was to be implemented there should be 2 options:

1. Exchange 5000 Balthazar Faction for 1 Zaishen Key
2. Exchange 10000 Balthazar Faction for 1 Zaishen Lockpick

Lockpick starts off with a base of 25% retention rate and raises by 0.0001% for ever tier of the title you go up (just to mirror the stupidity of the title itself)

Though, /notsigned by me. Just leave it how it is.
