They're common now because everyone asked for them to be more common before because the price you paid for them was not worth what you'd get most of the time. It just seems like a never ending cycle, a lot of people used to play to do scrolls, but if they don't have any scrolls would they bother playing?If they don't, is that a bad thing? But regardless, we have many activities. Maybe scrolls needed to be buffed in amount at one time, but do people need scrolls active 24/7? I have a stack of 70 easy scrolls that just seems to keep growing. I don't have to do them but it feels like I should, so I grab the strongest gilded weapon and rely on that.
Regardless, the biggest change was gilded for crafting along with the change where you could progress from "Any" weapon on scrolls. People wouldn't do them constantly. Having to use an Axistence or something instead of a Gilded Glaedr was a lot more of a challenge, and so people would split up their time between "Working on scrolls with lower tiered guns" and "Playing around with their high level weapons". Now, however, those are mixed together.
I'd RATHER see a change be made to gilded or the scroll progression for kills, but I think its far too late for that to happen...So I looked at a different vector. If TTT does become just endless "Do this over and over and over" then I feel like it loses its essence, which is what's happening.
(Slightly off-topic, but regarding the pass XP from dailies. I think its a good thing, and I don't mind the resets, but I think the cost should go higher every time you reset the dailies that day. I.E 15k the first time, 30k the next, 45k the third. The reasoning being is I can endlessly reset dailies and I make my money back from the Daily rewards, including the free clue scroll I seem to always get, which if its an easy I can do in maybe two rounds if I tryhard usually with a Gilded gun and rewards up to 10k or so, maybe more.)
I definitely don't think my suggestion is "People won't have any scrolls". You can get one from doing dailies, which is good, and Rep Scrolls are a thing (A good money sink even if nobody uses them). That's infinite scrolls as long as you just spend some money, and, in regards to the daily tasks, there isn't really a loss, just a cost.
Hence why my suggestion had something about just sort of slowly staggering it; - i.e scrolls shouldn't just become rare, but they should become rarer, and it could be gradual. I don't know if this adds annoying and unnecessary work to your end, but its a step I'd like to see.
Sorry if this reply is long, but to conclude, a friend gave me a strong Gilded gun recently (The first Gilded I've ever had), and when I realized I could use an incredibly powerful gun AND progress on challenges it was pretty insane. I can't believe people have been using those for so long, especially since overpowered crafted prims can come with Gilded, a lot of guns you spawned in for giveaways have Gilded, the shrine gives out Gilded (I believe). So if you get your hands on one expensive, rare and powerful gilded, why use anything else? I mean, you could if you want. I guess. But you wouldn't be progressing as fast, making as much money.
