celest breach
As part of her pre-release, we had a nice event for Lithia to build up towards a cube for a free Vestige of Soul weapon or 10 Soul Crystal Cubes! What were your thoughts on this event?
Did you know if you clicked the shards, you would also get a couple of responses from Lithia?

you dont need to intentionally bloat it with these time gates
it feels horrible coming in late and just being one day too late to do the one thing the event is advertising
should have been a full shard a day or even do it like genshin where one shard unlocks every so often but once its unlocked you can do them whenever (speedrun all 8 on the last day for example or do it one at a time as they unlock)

I'll have to +1 Aqua's opinion.
Tl:dr:
Ease the timing it takes to fully complete events like this, instead of needing the full week or two weeks, allow some time for off-time so that people aren't time-gated, OR make it to where it's do-able in a lower amount of time with some elbow grease and grinding.
Non-TL;dr(with rant):
I can see that KoG wanted to balance out the time for the event with the Rewards( that Vos is a neat thing) but at the same time, consideration is needed for a bit more leeway. say, instead of 3 for a rift shard, 2 per rift shard, 1 weekly for a single rift shard to ease some of the time it takes.
If that's too early, since the weapon would be gained faster, a few viable filler rewards can keep the engagement in the event, ranging form more sages, fighter pots, or a "EX reward" where instead of 2 completions for a rift shard, it goes back up to 3, aand each rift shard completion would give "mini beneficial mat cubes: say the choice of auras at a FAR Reduced amount (75-150), sages at a reduced amount (5-15) "
Second idea is a stretch, So I'll simply plea for a bit more leeway.
Yes, Someone can just log-in, do the quest, log off. But there's some cases where the unexpected happens,
The rant:
-I'm sure someone will say "Plan your time better." there's some cases that I want to back off from els, put time into another game, or stay the hell off of games for a day or two. and Though breaks should ease that pressure, the game can feel like a chore.
-"then quit" , the problem with that is how there's few games that got a similar style, system, to els (also sunken cost to a extent), Also, I'd like to at LEAST see how much can get changed here before just letting it drown.
Games shouldn't have to be planned around(with some exceptions eg: Raid, tourneys, etc) If games are a leisure, as it's either a break from life, or a escape from the madness of reality.
Thrown in as response to some statements. be well. thanks
I will also give benefit of the doubt.
The Punch Events are done well, They can either be done in a day, or done overtime and smoothly, Same with the Weapon Soul events( the one that gives the Free +10 FoJs & VoS) as there's Leeway for breaks, and can be done in a reasonable time.
I Hope that KoG will give some thought, and consider more leeway for these events. Even though this is a KR-style Game, It can be smoothen out.
Answering Rush's Question about the Shards
And before I forget, Ye, did click the shards, the lithia responses are a nice touch, especially for character promoting. It can get some people to look forward to newer characters, especially when the theme applies to their character's lore.
-(Reminds me of PGR(Punishing Gray Raven) where a good chunk of events revolve around the theme of the newest construct or focuses on a story theme)
in that department, Good job to KR. I like that touch O-o b

The responsed from Lithia were not only hard to read because of how small they were, but would go away too quickly. id find myself clicking the same shard over and over again to see what it said because the text flashes by too fast.
i also noticed some strange wording that felt like it was google translated? idk

seconding that the text was hard to read.
could do w a click to go away system instead of the auto close system that was present.
