No, I understand your frustration but the point I'm trying to get at is that this is deliberate. If you're doing WG solely to collect the limited available cards then you'd have x10 better luck doing a few keys worth of EH to get them to pop-up that way. But the fact that Catagion is available with 3 different methods justifies her EH appearance as being more on par with UR.

I can't speak for any event before Sisterhood of Thieves because that's when I started playing again, but I noticed this trend during these events, especially Valentine's Day Prix with making Chocolatier. Claudius for whatever reason wasn't as hard to get as Catagion but I noticed she'd appear way less frequently than Red String, Chocodevil, etc. and I chalk this up to because she was also available to obtain as an AW reward and as a WG completion reward.

The game is trying to cut out some people from acquiring these cards and they're doing that by making some components harder to come by. The whole game centers around exclusive maidens. If it was a fair chance for everyone to get every card then the game dynamic would be very different. So, in that case, because Catagion is a limited material, she is harder to come by for some folks.

The system design is actually very efficient - for MyNet. They get soooooooo much $$$ on people buying jewels for keys and other materials at the crap shoot to try and get the limited cards. Do they 'screw' a small portion of their player-base? Sure. But F2P and those that don't play as often aren't their target audience; and this is apparent by limited maidens during events, and special cards available through summons or ranking.

Anyways, I apologize for my English. It's years in the process of mastering, so I hope I've conveyed my point clearly without coming off too choppy or anything.
