Personally i think instead of kits it should cost 3 energy essences. Then its like a crafted kit+ unicorn food= portal . Seems pretty fair. When ppl reach gold , its either helena or ursoth. Spending 3 energy for a chance of last boss is opretty bad

There is no incentive to run the event.. Sts NEEDS to input an some incentive.
1. Make the unicorn food like last event where it was permanent - it brought teamwork and moral to guilds while they looked for portal
2. Omg give us something worth spending obscene amounts of energy to get platinum tier a stupid title isn't going to cut it
3. Make vines pop faster and bosses a little bit more challenging with drops to keep people running
4. Last put something worth opening locks in the event you have focused all this event on f2p throw those that use plat a bone so they are willing to spend real money to keep this game afloat
Yeah I forgot that. Can you send a dev into AL and play the event to see this? You have to stand there and wait for the vines to pop so the boss will spawn. The fluidity of the map is pretty low... Hard to get a groove on with it. The vines need to come up quicker for us and it wouldn't hurt if you upped the boss difficulty either. Using a few ankh here and there isn't a bad thing.
I would have been ok with the title at plat tier if it had included an uber fantastic gem or pet or something along those lines but this event is such garbage and that's the most constructive term I can come up with at this point. I've only been here since Halloween event and they have progressively worsened. Goblin event was good with the amulet and portals bc you were almost guaranteed last boss every time. People ran their butts off for NS.... Tarlok was great bc of eyes. Even with the bugs n glitches, previous events surpassed this event ten folds. I want to be a fan of events... I really do. They're supposed to be exciting and fun and give us something new to do and a break from the regular grind we're all on daily... this is usually the chance for people to make a decent stash pile of gold to play on for a lite bit but please, someone tell me how we're supposed to make gold with nothing of value being earned here.

Hi all thank you for the feedback. Please try to keep it in this thread. It's much easier to read and respond if it's in one place instead of in many different threads. Thanks.
Thanks gm!
Three things you guys should do Imo to fix this...
1) Give us shady n surge back (recolor it or whatever... And make it either lb prize or throw it in locked
2) Give us some op gem or jewel along with the title for plat (either a noble gem or para I know the masses would appreciate!)
3) Make free portals less likely to spawn, but make the unicorn thing unlimited use!
oh... I've also had twinks saying that they would like to see the belt lv to character opening it... I think they are feeling left out and want a belt too
Just give it all to us! Make us all happy and shut us all up for good! Lol
I have pretty much nothing constructive to say. This event is fubar imo.
Anyway, in order to make it slightly less unacceptable, you can probably do at least one or two of these:
1. Improve the pets. They are cute and nice looking, which is great. But that's not enough. Compare the squirrels or the gold tier unicorn to pets like Blinky or Nilbog and you get the picture.
2. Either make food permanent use, or shorten the crafting time to like 2 hours.
3. Add something, anything, to the plat tier "reward".
Bring out new arcane pet and lower droprate to make rengol crates more expensive. So non plat Players can farm something aswell
Good to know but the main issue hasnt been adressed, at least from my point of view. Why is the ursoth event so underpar compared to most of the previous events and does the STS team have any plans of altering specific things in the event?
Because something must be severely wrong if such a huge proportion of the AL forum community is literally fuming.
You've done a pretty good job with previous events, at least to my knowledge and this one is to say the least, disappointing.
Energy Essence is more hard to drop than goblin invasion - 1 hour = 1 energy... Rofl
Change price call of Champions vanity from 2.5k to 2k ... 2.5 i hard... Only for no-lifes - 10 hours everyday
All players want have fun from game :)
IMO there are two issues here:
1. unreasonable expectations. Yes, we players have had very high expectations for this event. That is partly our fault, but we had those expectations because of the level of play at last years ursoth. mythics, pets, vanities, etc were all top notch last year. Even the legendary gear was top notch. Elondrian pendants, rings, etc from last year are still heavily used. Also, it was worth the grind to craft elondrian crates. i made a lot of money selling those. I also spent plat opening a lot of elondrian crates. They were in high demand because every crate had good loot. When you compare rewards and loot from both years, this year is woefully inept. In fact, it is still (a year later) more beneficial to open elondrian crates from last year than this year's version. That is fundamentally wrong. And demand for the leaf crates is plummeting. People will stop grinding the event because there is not much gold to be made from them. no incentive to open them. So yes, maybe we players can be blamed for having unreasonable expectations, but we have those expectations because that's where the bar was set, and the players want that high level of content.
2. STS newly stated philosophy of updating content. STS has come out and said the new goal is to release more frequent, smaller events instead of infrequent large events. okay that sounds good, but these "smaller events" still need to have some sort of incentive. Gauntlet was actually kind of insulting to me. It felt to me (and many others) like an inferior product was thrown out just to keep us quiet about current content. Not saying that was the intention, but it definitely had that feel. Now with ursoth, I am starting to get that impression as well. Content is very unambitious. It feels like STS is not quite getting what players want. Players want to farm gear. They want to make gold. Every event should have that component in mind. I appreciate the effort to have regular updates and new content, but it is starting to feel like we are just being pacified. I dont think devs are lazy, and I dont think there is a conspiracy to ONLY milk us for plat. I think there is a misunderstanding of what players want in content. Yes we want to have new things to do. we want events. But we want a reason to participate in those events. Running with friends and having comraderie is great, but we need loot.
That's my opinion, but I can safely say that 90% of other end game players i talk to feel the same way
Add a noble gem to plat tier.
Reduce or remove the Elondrian essences for event crates.
Add better loot for event crates, can you do runes?
Add dovabear for tokens to the vendor
Look at unicorn, he's weak.
Check the vine spawn times in the map and increase the boss difficulty.
What all you guys are saying is so true i'm only running event atm for the vanity of 2500tokens..

Not enough time, lol. The delayed the event...
Totally agree!
Keep in mind the cycle of this all. If we don't want to open locked then the locked price goes rock bottom. It's already there.
Then nobody has a way to farm for gold.
But OK if it's against the majority wishes fine. Then make a suggestion that is NOT vanity to add inside the crates so we want to open.
Because rt now poppers ain't opening. Ren locked are at an all time low when during events they should skyrocket and everyone is able to benefit from.
Well instead of gem it could be the new belt or something but I definitely agree with these solutions.
Well no gems recipe this event so how about for plat tier, non trade able recipe for crafting some new elon gems which would give +2 str, +2 int, +2 Dex and +20 armor.
The components needed could be hard how about 5 elon essence, 1 weak jewels of all the gems except Chao gems.
Its just a suggestion but it could be something like this or any other opinion of a new gem.
The unicorn food thingy is ridiculous. Just make them permanent like the goblin event last time!
You're saying I should suggest something worth gambling for with real money in a small mobile game? You're talking to the wrong guy for that. My thought on any game, MMOs especially, is that they should NEVER have micro transactions that profit a player directly (gambling or not). I'm perfectly fine with enhancers or consumables like ankhs for platinum, because that doesn't instantly give someone the best gear, completely bypassing hours of gameplay. My opinion is we should remove crates completely from the game, or as an alternative to that, at least make everything available for platinum also available through gameplay, even at low drop chances. I'll happily farm a map 20k times if it means I'll have a chance at something worth while. The only reason that I don't bother is because everything worth anything in this game is made available to platinum spenders at relative ease. the problem isn't that the crates don't have any new good stuff, the problem is the crates exist in the first place. I would happily pay a reasonable monthly fee to play this game if there was more frequent updates and platinum didn't exist - meaning everything is farmable one way or another.
Regardless, this is getting away from the topic at hand, so let's try and keep things on how we can improve Ursoth: make plat tier reward a noble jewel of a primary stat that you choose along with the title. It would be nice to have a noble in my inventory so I can bypass farming 2187 cracked finesse jewels and have at least 1 decent jewel prepared for when I get the new mythic armor.
+1 for thread :)
Couple of suggestions I'll throw against the wall and see what sticks -
1. Platinum tier reward noble jewel of your class as suggested above.
2. Essences necessary for crafting crates lowered to 3. Only ren'gol crates, not locked grand crates of the watch - or at least rename the crates into locked leaf crates of the watch and locked leaf crates of ren'gol, differing loot in the two -
2x chance for mythic in ren'gol, regular odds in normal crates.
3. So to open these crates, there has to be some incentive other than 2x mythic odds. Arcane is the new mythic and nobody who opens crates needs mythic any more especially since there are no new ones this time round... So I suggest buffing Ursoth weapons and making them better than l41 mythic by a small amount (10 dmg?)
Also make the special vanities drop only from leaf crates.
4. Unicorn food is zzz. I like the story and how it relates to stuff but what about having once fed your Unicorn you get unlimited access to portals?! Also perhaps consider adding food to leaf crates.
Event needs some fixes pl0x
Please make the lag disappear. All players are experiencing screen freeze.
To me it seems like people would be happier if they just relaunched last year's Ursoth, lol.
Winter 2013 (the first Tarlok) was the best because it was the only event that had completely free portals. There was no such thing as energy.
The vanities were mediocre and the equipment was aesthetic if anything. The most valuable items were Whim Brothers, Breezaga (when it was 2m), and the Tarlok gems.
All that didn't ruin the event. The gameplay was absolutely superb. Guild activity was averaging about 40-50 players per day. Point is, Tarlok 2013 let players play the content instead of making them farm tombs for essences.
Right, who's going to pay for this utopia? I heard Donald Trump is interested in blowing money these days. Perhaps we can get him in on it.
Monthly fees work when you have a large player base. If you do not have a large player base, they do not work. OnC tried this monthly fee model and it failed. Keep in mind, this is GameLoft - the game making giant. Now, how does STG, a relatively small company, achieve this?
Here's the thing: since the game is a mobile MMO and relatively small, the whales matter a lot more than you think. The casual customers do contribute, yes, but whales contribute a lot since the paying gaming population is relatively small when compared to other large scale MMOs. So, their impact and opinion matters a lot more.
I really do not understand why people can apply big scale MMO tactics to smaller mobile MMOs and think it will work.
Also please make portal appear at all mobs not boss :(
Now we can she action....many closed threads....Lil he he :P
Put super rare chance of sns in those crates and watch the price skyrocket and the money roll in! Lol
There is one simple way to save Ursoth that wouldn't require much work on STG's end.
-Make SnS available for 5,000 tokens.
Sure, the event is still very flawed. But with a prize that good, I wouldn't be complaining. If you're worrying about upsetting the SnS owners, let's be honest, many of them have left the game (and they had the pet exclusively for a year).
Save your event by giving us a chance to get the pet we always wanted.
Seriously who came up with the unicorn food idea at STG HQ. Made good gold selling many around 200k a pot earlier, but at the price and time it takes to craft, I'm not sure I care about getting bloodgrub.
Thats the way i wanna see it! +1 to this thread and do something about the really anoying freeze/play gameplay >.<

+1 on this thread i would also like fantasma( the gold tier pet) buffed as i me tioned in my thread
Yes...even 10k... I'd grind... I don't care
Without having access to the company books, you're just as in the dark as we are. Assuming that the "whales" contribute more than the masses is just that, an assumption. It might be true, but it also very well might not be. I can tell you this, as it stands, if either group leaves, the game will die pretty quickly.
1000k is the correct number for sns
NO to SnS! YES to other suggestions which easily can be find in other "Ursoth sucks" topics!
P.S. Agree with title - the Simplest way. The simplest doesnt mean the best.
And what about mythic weapons? .-.
