The surprise box is actually a great system because it allows people to get cheap NX and permanent versions of NX are actually cheaper in mesos than in NX.
However, it's a great system done very poorly... a couple gripes I have that make me condemn this system to hell:
1) Permanent NX from the Mystic Boxes are simply impossible/not an option. I wanted a Light Blue Chiffron overall but I didn't realize people were paying 100k NX for one.
2) The temporary NX never changes. We keep seeing the same temporary NX clothes coming out even after their updates. Also, you can never get permanent versions of non-exclusive Surprise Box NX which also kills the variety.
3) Once a sale ends for a particular list, you'll never ever see them again. I wouldn't have a problem with this if you could at least buy them in cash shop after this list ends but as it is now, if you don't get a permanent version of the current surprise box list, you'll never ever have it again.
4) (Which is actually 1 + 3) Once the surprise box list updates, Mystic Box NX is also gone forever. It's a double slap in the face: impossible perma NX at a very limited time frame.
