So, my server was discussing this and we figured the god bases (Anubis, Seth and Bast) were a bit costly for how much event beetles are dropped.

You get 2 Khepri Beetles per encounter.
and 10 completed for daily quests.

I took a brief (and maybe not 100% accurate survey) from my clan's discord server and the majority of people are under 10 KBs at the moment.
Of course, they haven't completed their quests yet.
I myself am at 83 KBs with 3 left from last year.
**Note: I used a Roasted Lamb today

I think 500 COULD be reasonable, but from what I remember last year. I only got about 1000-1500 KBs and I was on DAILY doing quests and such.
That's enough to afford 2-3 of the applicators.
But keep in mind, not everyone can be on every second of the day trying to beat the heck out of snakes xD

Doing quests without missing a day, would be +10 KBs everyday.
That's 300 KBs doing every daily quest without missing one, give or take a few.
God bases are 500 KBs per base.
That's 100 battles you need to complete to be able to grab ONE god base + every daily quest without missing one.

------

6/7/19: Little update to this given the recent news post:

Now with more than 4 accounts linked to an IP, any more than 2 users in a household will not be able to have a side account. All the more reason for this to be bumped. Those users are now at a disadvantage.


------

My proposal is to either:

A) Lower the amount of KBs that the god bases cost to 300-400 somewhere.

Edit: People seem to be in agreement that the cost of these applicators should be more like 250-300, as stated by people on my discord server and in the comments as well.

B) Increase KB drop from fighting snakes to maybe 4-5 perhaps?

C) Maybe both?


I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts.
If you disagree, please give some helpful criticism to make this suggestion better for everyone.




This suggestion has 586 supports and 29 NO supports.

Personally I feel like pricing them at 250 KB would be more achievable, and still an amount where they won't necessarily flood the market. Support :D

i didnt spend ANY event beetles last year, and i didnt have anything at all going on in my personal life. i was able to be online all day and all night if i felt like it. ive got less than 400 beetles to my name now, and ive fought one snake this year. given how hard it is to get event currency this month, it feels weird that the bases are so expensive when in months where currency is plentiful, bases are cheaper. 250-300 would make more sense for the cost of the base

See, I was also thinking something like 250, but some people were thinking maybe that's too low for a base applicator so I was a bit torn.

I also want to make note before more people comment that:
I've been struggling to defeat snakes. Losing like 50% of the battles. I barely even see Anubis in the battle log helping me.
Not sure if that's a glitch. I know he's supposed to rarely pop in, but I don't think I've seen him ONCE.

I'm sure there are other bases at that rate, aren't there? Honestly, can't remember, but I feel like it'd be a fair median given the grind required to get currency this month.

Yeah currency isn't easy :/
I thought lion scrotums were hard to grab last month, but this is so much worse.

I understand that the event is only on it's second year and the god bases were only just added to the shop this year. It would be nice for the medium to be found while they're on their first year in the shop.

If anything it just bugs me that there aren't any other items to bridge that gap of like "this item costs 40KB" and then "God Base is 500KB"
I agree it should be more expensive, but as of now, the jump looks ridiculous with the lack of currency drops and other purchasable items.

That was my thought exactly.

Might I add the 40 KB items are backgrounds as well. Those are always typically more expensive than everything else.

I'm at 42, and it's the first day. So that comes out to 1176 if I earn at the same rate (I haven't finished the quest yet though). I'll probably keep my main on bast, and my side switching between Seth and Anubis, so I don't think that's too bad? I do agree with a better cost though.

It's really not terrible, but it could be much easier and better still.

Support.

500KB is a bit steep.
