    Default "Lesser" Tradeable Event Energy Kit

    It would be cool if players could craft their energies into a lesser version of the normal energy kit.

    Meaning that entering an event dungeon using this kit will only grant you 50% of the usual points, drop rate, and tokens.

    It could take about 5-7 energy essence to craft 1 Lesser energy kit.

    As it's not very efficient for the top 5 or 10 players to use these, it won't harm the platinum side of things too much. But I reckon top 11-50 players would be willing to spend gold on these.

    It would serve as a good gold sink to let the gold circulate to poorer players and allowing them to easily make gold at any level. Even the newest of players start with 5 crafting slot.

    It also can't be abused as looking at gold per hour with 25 crafting slots, it's still less gold than gold farming with gold loot.

    Crafting tradeable energy kits from energy essences, but using these kits will only get you about 50%-70% of the points you would earn normally.

    A good way to earn money for new players, and it works as a gold sink for less serious lb runners.

    I don't think anyone would willingly trade for something that nerfed their points, loot, tokens, etc. during an event.

    However it might be worth considering a crafted trade-friendly Energy that is balanced against Platinum cost for energy refills. This would definitely mean a higher number of essences, a longer crafting period and a much higher gold cost.


    TBH I am not very confident that something like that would be a good idea for players and Spacetime alike - but we will discuss it :-)
