Well for sure the Wonder Girls dance emotes are definitely a licensing issue, if you don't already have those, you will NEVER get them. That is because the dance emote references the title of the WG song and the music that plays along side the emote are copyright owned by the Wonder Girls entity.
But actual outfits can apparently not be copyrighted because the "Cute Denim Dress" that is currently in the BCM, is the EXACT same dress that was released as part of the 5 Wonder Girls skins back in 2011. I have the cute denim dress from the 2011 WG promotion. The description on the item reads, "A cute denim one-piece dress worn by Sohee and Yoobin at the Wonder Girls' '2DT' dance exhibition." You can see what I am talking about here. https://aioncodex.com/us/item/110900121/
Now I'm not going to buy the one on the BCM currently to see if it's true, but I would bet that NC just removed the item description that originally accompanied that skin.
So, either licensing of skins is not an issue and/or not possible... OR... NC made a big boo boo and are currently profiting off items they don't own the copyright to.

I did get your point. You obviously missed mine. The event coins are the standard currency going forward, so my point was...
You're not going to be able to get EVERYTHING you want every time an event NPC merchant is up. Prioritize what you absolutely must have, and then just wait for the next time the event NPC returns and again, spend accordingly.

Do you have an idea when the survey will be sent out? A lot of people need to know because it's almost impossible to grind out Ranger Vault instance in two weeks time (since it ends on October 14 maintenance) for the locked legendary contract. We weren't aware till a day before this week's maintenance about the key being renewed, and getting 9,800 event coins by doing Vault till the 14th is almost impossible unless you have a lot of luna to burn.
There is a reason the event coin bags were/are storable in your account warehouse. There is a reason that each unique character class on the account (that looted ONE class mastery book) got a survey for 1k coins which could also be stored in the warehouse.
I'm 100% sure you're not supposed to be able to farm enough coins to buy a legendary contract from running one wicked vault entry a day for the duration of the event. Not only would that be ridiculously easy but it would give the opportunity to earn way too many coins per character for those with multiple level 80s.
If you didn't store every characters small and large coin bags in your account warehouse to be opened by 1 character for the legendary contract I doubt you can achieve a 2nd legendary contract before the event ends. However, going forward I strongly advise doing this so you can pool your coin bags and withdraw them to open as necessary.

This event is a little confusing, especially with the Moon Rabbit NPC still removed from game, but if you're ONLY interested in getting the [Event] Locked Hanbok Pixel Transformation Contract Selection Box (4 Types) for your account, do not upgrade your [Event] Honey Songpyeon at the Arnev NPC. (The 700k and 7m upgrade options)
Once the little Moon Rabbit NPC comes back, you will see you need 50 [Event] Honey Songpyeon to spend as currency for the Pixel Xform contract.
The upgraded baskets you have a chance to get from paying kinah [Event] Small Honey Songpyeon Basket (700k) and [Event] Ornate Honey Songpyeon Box (7m) give their own set of prizes (should you choose to open these, i wouldn't though) and are also used for the quest "Moon Rabbit's Happy Autumn Harvest Gift Box" which requires 10 [Event] Honey Songpyeon, 5 [Event] Small Honey Songpyeon Basket and 2 [Event] Ornate Honey Songpyeon Box. Once you have the those items, the quest turn in gives [Event] Moon Rabbit's Happy Gift Box. The Moon Rabbit's Happy gift box gives you ALL of the following :
[Event] Gourmet Star Outfit
Legendary Blood Mark 25
Ultimate Blood Mark 10
[Event] Ultimate Katalam Reward Box
Hope this helps and saves people some kinah/frustration.

Saying the contract costs 20 when it in fact costs 15 is just misleading. Regardless of how you chose to acquire the coins for it, the cost remains 15.
I'm not a free player, i spend money on this game and i still don't have an ultimate xform. I am sure there are many that are in the same position. Paying gets you to a goal faster, but the game still gives totally free players a way to get to the same destination with time, and perhaps with luck. You are acting entitled to items when you give the game zero money. You're complaining about having to grind and farm, everyone grinds and farms to a certain extent. You say you shouldn't have to spend "$5000000" but the fact is, you spend ZERO dollars to enjoy the game, and i think you're losing sight of that.
My advice would be to enjoy the free game for what it does offer you, and stop focusing on what others have and you don't have. It's a lot like real life, some people just have more than you or me, and that's ok.

Prepare for the sea of HATE for this comment I regret the time I said this
Ahahaha, so be it, I stand by my statement.
Don't get me wrong, i am definitely working on getting my ultimate xform because I like shiny things and it's a goal to accomplish but not having one is not hindering the ability to play the game.

Not to be rude, but this F2P logic sort of reminds me about that streamer who said if someone was watching her right now they have to have a job, and therefore should donate to her. Because people without jobs wouldnt have enought time to watch the stream. Now that being said. Im F2P for a reason.. and thats as simple as, im poor. I cant afford 20$ for one transformation thats useless in 3 weeks. Now, is that 100% movement speed useless, no. But I cant spend 20$ on a game, ive got some bigger expenses to worry about.
People got that transformation for free, a 20$, 2-3 week grind transformation. For simply right clicking and pressing some buttons. And no matter what, even if youre p2w or f2p you should NEVER be able to just casually get something for free without doing anything. But, if you look at the servers. 90% of the time, those with Tiamat and Ereshikgal, multiple sets of advanced stigmas on multiple alts, the aetherforge weapon skin. They all paid for that. So, please tell me. Where is it fair for someone to buy one of the best transformations in the game, the best stigmas, and a weapon skin I cant even look at because im too poor. Right now in the game there is NO viable way for any free player to farm up Tiamat or Ereshikgal. From what ive seen, only 2-3 people have gotten the contracts from the vending machine in this event. So to me, thats not viable. And with this new event, you have to spent pretty much all your time farming for one single legendary contract. To be able to even farm up enough contracts it takes like 5-6 months. Of heavy, intense daily farming. And, even after those 5-6 months theres a chance you dont even get the ultimate contract.
First of all, it's $15, NOT $20. I don't know where you all got twenty dollars for the cost of the contract but it's 15.
$15 if you don't have a legendary xform on your account already is worth it, imo. The contract is not "useless" as you put it after the event is over. The pixel xform stats during the event are better than the 10 type legendary stats, but after the event, the pixel stats are roughly equal to the stats of the 10 type legendary set of xforms.
I am also confused by your logic. Free to play doesn't translate to you get everything you desire in game at no cost to you. In what universe do you think a business should provide a free player with the same things as a paying customer gets? Again, this is a business and they are in the business of making money to you know, pay the people that run/design/develop the game you're playing for free. I struggle to understand why this concept is difficult for people to get...
Whether you're a free player by choice or necessity, the game gives you the ability to access legendary xforms. (The last event gave 1k coin bags to every unique character that got ONE class book. That is easily a free legendary xform right there.) The means to get the xforms are in game for you, as a free player you need to utilize the mechanics of the game to get the items you want.
Also, I don't understand why you think you need an ultimate xform to enjoy the game, you don't. Need and want are different concepts. You WANT an ultimate xform, you don't NEED one.

wow. it was not "free"
players just skipped that part where you craft 50 honey thingy wich is pretty easy to doUmm semantics? Clearly it was giving a reward to players in a way that was not intended, hence the NPC getting removed. Some people got the reward without doing the event as it was/is intended. Happy?

The legendary contract you can buy from the BCM is $15, NOT 20. 1200 = $15
As far as people getting one for free, it happens. Bugs happen, mistakes happen. The event NPC came down quickly, i doubt too many got to take advantage of it, i know i didn't, AND I'M OK WITH THAT. I'm not going to stomp my feet and demand a free legendary delivered via survey.
NC is running a business, they aren't going to give away free leg contracts when they put a way in the current event to farm one. Ya'll should be happy about that. Play the game, do the event, get your contract.
And honestly, i'm so tired of the F2P vocal minority of players that come here and CRY about not getting the best stuff in game FOR FREE. FFS, if you enjoy the game, spend a little money on it to show it. If you can't show your support for a BUSINESS (this is not a charity) and you are truly a free to play player, then you need to realize that TIME playing / grinding in game is your currency.
Also, don't neglect your Lugbug weeklies, i got a FREE legendary out of my shining 44 type Lugbug contract yesterday.

Thank you for updating the event quests to reflect that we don't have the auto hunt system here. Also, thank you for the compensation, much appreciated! =)

NC doesn't care if you attend the events they
createcopy and paste from Korea. They care that you spend your time and money on their game.If you're unhappy with the direction the game is taking, by all means, voice your frustration on the forums to elicit change. The more people that post to the conversation, the more likely NC will take notice and make some changes.
However, if change for the better doesn't come, then you have only 2 options to try and force a change.
1. Stop spending money on the game.
2. Stop spending time on the game.
