So, I think 95% of us basically agree that the goblin event energy system was fatally flawed in one form or another.
When STS told us they'd listen to our feedback and fix what needed fixing, I trusted that they themselves had recognized the flaws and would do their utmost to fix them.
And now we have a
'new' system.
This new system includes a crafting element to 'ease the burden' for non-plat spenders, as well as the ability to gain energy through event chests/crates.
But apart from that, it is
exactly the same. It still only gives 1 energy per 8 hours, only the event bosses drop occasional energy (not arlor bosses), plat cost is still 5 per 1 energy, and there is still a portal allowing unrestricted entry should you have the energy. Also, there is now an even more alluring reward for the richest amongst us: an exclusive arcane pet for the top 10 LB scores in each class.
What with the all the other items that need to be crafted during the event, I can't help but think that this is the same flawed package tied with a pretty bow instead of dirty straw twine.
This is a huge letdown for me. I mean... was it wrong to expect big changes after being reassured they would come?
Thoughts about the new system?
