The Community Point shop was a mistake. Jokes aside, the Community Point shop introduced a new meta of sorts when it came to farming Lapis and Vermilion Dragon Souls. Farming ABN on alts and multi-clienting was huge and that was not the direction I intended for it to go in. It only became meta because I made the mistake of accidentally making it 5 souls per purchase and 5 Defiled Dragon runes per purchase instead of 1.

When the "meta" was happening. People were able to get their preferred rolls on their gems and enhance a lot faster. Prior to the Community Point shop update, it was incredibly slow. I like the pacing of how fast gem acquisition was with the Community Point meta but needless to say, it is a terrible way to progress. Making alts and doing Arch Bishop Nest is not "quality content" and lets you completely dodge a lot of the new content. That being said, this patch is a ways of fixing that. I'm changing a lot of the drops and rates of content and systems to match or get close to how efficient the Community Pont shop grind was without the cringe of spamming ABN on alts. The Community Point shop was intended to be a bonus soul gain, not the absolute best way.
