I'm sure the devs get a good chuckle out of the big joke they pulled on the "powergamers"
I'm sure Vargouille is disgusted by what the marketdroids did with GS Deconstruct.
The point is that the Dev that worked on it seemed to be really keen for us to have Yellow Dopants easy to get.
But things like that ends up to marketing and sales department, where the marketdroids saw a mik cow in the making and just went for it... and basically disgusted all the people that were really interested in it.
If for the price of 1 actual dopant they would have sold a stack of 10 I would have spent TP on them. As it is no way I'm going to waste 400 TP for dopants.

Don’t forget the load of shit “significantly increased drop rate” for boot ingredients!
What drop rate ?
Anyway it all boil down to the fact that the drop rate for commendation is abysmal, they are bound to character, the raid is retarded, and a few more reasons not to run it.
So basically the change they make is to give incentive to run it as their statistics show people have stopped running it a few weeks after it appeared. ( good luck, with all the stupid things in that raid, the lack of interesting loot [ especially for Clerics ] and the ressource drain that clusterfuck is you'll have to make huge changes to it before people run it regularly
en masse )
