It will be interesting to see whether people who dont buy energy actually get enough tokens to get anything at all from this event.

everything should just be free.
i want a brand new capped toon of every class with all top gears built in, and free upgrades to all the newest stuff released.
and a twink for every level with top equips as well.
go on and throw in all pets ever with all my toons.
any event that happens is a hassle, just gimme the dang stuff.
i need my gold capped as well, and raise the cap while you are at it.
still awaiting my STS credit card so i can get all the plat i want, too.
next 9 posts reserved for when i decide what else i should have.
whats that noise outside? must be the WAAAHHHHmbulance. GTG.
hmm so instead of making the portals disappear
after 30 sec u put them in city so plat users life gets even more easier, wooooow

Imho I think it takes way to long for you to get (replinish) one energy. Most people would rather see it shorted to like an hour or two because when you think about it that's 8hours per energy, so to refill energy that would be a total of 24 hours. A FULL DAY!!!! I think that is kind of a little outrageous... I'm pretty sure most people would agree with me
Sorry STS but you definitely losing the best MMO title if this buzzkill you call the energy system is not fixed and fixed fast. I don't want to have to wait to Ursoth Assault to go back to anticipating and enjoying events. As it is I've spent more time off game to nod furiously at the complaints on the feedback thread. I rather be in game killing monsters but the portals that open and I can't enter just kill it for me.

So you removed the exploit which is perfectly fine, but now you are charging a convenience fee on top of the energy cost.
I don't understand why its not just a flat plat-only cost to enter this portal. Energy users can go hunt their portals and use their energy.
I'm not sure what was discussed in that meeting, but I really don't see any resolution in regards to the energy replenish rate which is making this event a big disappointment for plat and non plat players alike.

Now it's too late to make changes in this event . Players were exploiting portals by "holding them open" and entering to run event dungeons again and again. Cit.
This was not obvious that to happen? Seriously.

This! Go back to the Tarlok event system and everyone will be happy. The portals in the middle of mobs cause players to leave in the middle or runs as well, which is hard on people who are trying to get to a difficult boss. Make portals spawn after bosses are killed, keep the same spawn rate as the Tarlok portal chances they are free to enter. Portal in the village can cost plat. I don't remember many people complaining about the Tarlok event 90% of your users were happy. Now 90% are unhappy.
If revenue wasn't enough from the Tarlok event and that's why this energy system was put in place consider adding a new mythic pet for 250 plat making the egg version buyable as well like with the ripmaw weekend event. People buy pets... and it adds to plat spending during events. If people are told it's a one time only will not be reappearing EVER pet and the stats are good it will sell.

Where is the reimbursements to all the players not using the exploit? They were spending plat and gave up after watching these guys triple their scores? I am confused how you developers can actually call this a fix for all your paying customers who were cheated. Let's not mention, the lb players get no punishment? Lol
I agree this would be a good strategy for STS, but make these "free" portals somewhat rare, and make them only spawn after beating the boss. Maybe have the chance be much greater after beating an elite tindirin boss. But also make sure the portals disappear after a minute so that players cannot hold them open.
This way players who do not have much plat can still keep busy farming and looking for the free portals, while players who have plat can buy entry to the energy portal.
Gotta keep the sugar daddies and sugar mommies happy.
Smaller plat spenders don't seem to rate.
While it seems obvious players loved Tarlok obviously sts didn't make enough on the event. I would think just adding the mythic weapons to a tarlok like event would give a significant hike to revenue. Sts must disagree. I have seen a lot of thoughtful posts with excellent ideas. I hope sts takes them to heart.
I want Sts to be profitable as much as anyone, but creating further separation between the haves and have nots is not healthy for anyone. The lower classes have to have hope, without that they leave and no game is successful with just the haves.
Sts, please don't cater too much to the rich as it will have a negative effect in the long run.
In regards to the locked crates and Mythics, they will be in the next event. During Urosth's Assault there will be two Crates. During the event special versions of the Grand Watch crate will drop, containing the current Mythics as well as the new weapons. In addition to this event Crate there will also be an Exceptional version of the crate. This one is special in that it will contain double odds on the Mythics, as well as remove the Mythic Armor/Helms from the loot table to ensure more Mythic Weapons overall. Without going into too much detail there will be other ways to get the Exceptional Crates! More info on that when the time is appropriate.
These Crates will drop only during the event, and will no longer drop once Ursoth's Assault has ended. Any Crates that did drop, however that have not been opened will remain until they all have been opened.
This is the current plan, and subject to change but chances are unlikely. I do have to state that it may change because a lot of things are being re-thought for the Ursoth Assault Event given all of the information and feedback we are gathering during the Goblin Event. With Urosth's Assault planned to last quite a bit longer than the Goblin Event, we have a lot of refining to do to make sure it is fun and exciting for everyone. Don't worry, we're up to the challenge
Except the portal, (wich is not really important, because I don't think it was the main problem.) nothing changes at all.
So the next event have to be excellent..
Gonna agree with Haligali and Energizeric, I think that this should be similar to the Tarlok event, with tweaks like what Energizeric suggested. In the Tarlok event, I believe it was a VERY low chance to find portals as low as Ydra Forest, and a somewhat higher chance to find them in higher leveled maps, such as Shuyal. Completing the map, (killing the boss) should be the only way to find it, and like Energizeric suggested, have the Elite Tindirin bosses have a much greater chance to spawn a portal. It would give everyone a chance to farm Ursoth's event while actually playing, and then have the one Portal in the Ursoth town for a certain amount of plat to enter. I feel like I'm just lengthening what Energizeric said so this is my time to shut up :d
