Event tweak

Hello, I wanted to propose us being able to collect essence during night and day as long as we aren't in dream scape.

As a hard core player it is incredibly frustrating to miss those day cycles. With that said it made me wonder how those who work feel when they get home and grind/work to cap their essence. I believe we should be able to collect essence whenever as long as our wolf isn't asleep. My reasoning behind this is this event is already short lived, we have energy bars that have to fill, collecting essence is random in explore, and the amount of essence one can collect is capped. If one could collect during all times it would make the game more accessible to all. You still have to put in the work to grind but now you won't have to worry if it's day or night which would reduce stress of hitting the quota for everyone and make it over all more enjoyable of an experience.

Thank you for this consideration I'm open to concerns this might bring ^^

•Werewolf! "Wolvden ‘time’ doesn’t seem dependent on real world time of day? The time in-game(for daylight/dusk/etc, NOT rollover) cycles multiple times per real day."

           - people shouldn't be further limited on something that is already capped people work, have lives,  and live in different time zones.  If your wolf is not in sleep mode they should be able to collect essence as they aren't dreaming and are awake.  Less stressful and makes the event more enjoyable that way

•Dźnanek "Wouldn't it feel unfair for the remaining players who are mainly active during the day, as they collect the essence but don't have time to spend it?"

      -We are already limited by random encounters, energy bars, and a max essence this just allows the event to be more enjoyable for all timezone won't matter and people won't have to be stressed over having to collect all 100 essence. You still have the time to put in but it makes it even for all still have to put the work in though to collect.

I support. I don't have much time to play but never seem to be on during "day/collect essence" time. I am not even close to collecting 100 essences. It takes me days of collecting to get close to 100. It's almost like this game needs to be a full time job for me to make any progress. I think being able to collect essence at anytime with the 100 a day cap is more than a sufficient limitation.

I hear you I play throughout the day and am actually a hard core player that plays throughout. If a grinder can't get Essence well where is the hope for others unless one spends money? To be frank I really hope that isn't the goal as hard work should equal premium currency as its a fun event not a pay to win. Games aren't meant to be work they are meant to be fun but even the event is making it feel otherwise... I know on LD events are usually enjoyable but this as cool of a concept it is needs a severe overhaul. I honestly don't even agree with the cap as the event is a week long. With the cap though as you stated there is no reason to limit the essence it should be equal opportunity for all time zones I think there was only a few hours I could even try for Essence collection that just isn't it :/

Agreed considering the event is only a week long, and this game itself requires so much damn dedication to get anywhere at a good pace. That in itself I think should be overhauled, but asking for event tweaks is a lot easier than asking for an economy rework. 

+Support. I really just think you should be able to do the LT segment (limit intact) without grinding for the LE. 

Wolvden ‘time’ doesn’t seem dependent on real world time of day? The time in-game(for daylight/dusk/etc, NOT rollover) cycles multiple times per real day. You can check when day will become dusk, dusk will become night, etc on your Cooldowns page:

@Werewolf

Yeah no I check in multiple times through the day this does not sit well and should be changed like I said I can't be on 24/7 to collect the essence same with other players people have jobs. The point is there is a cap and people should be able to collect when not in 'dream mode' in a hard core grinder and even I can't seem to collect all 100 essence in the day.  Its agitating to say the least and events are to be fun if people put the work into it they should be able to collect the essence whenever.  Sorry but no I should be able to collect essence during the time I'm awake same with other players everyone has timezones and everyone is limited with an energy bar the cycle makes it too complex for those who have things to do but are willing to put time in.  I get working hard for what you get but that is beyond unreasonable. 37 essence/100 regularly explore but somehow only 3x out of my day can potentially collect essence. It's just not a good design for an event. 

I agree. It would be nice to be able to find essence at night time.

Some days it's seems every time i come online it's nightime. Today being one of those days. I've not ben able to collect a single essence so far.

Assuming a group of players who are active for the same amount of time, some of them have an issue they can't collect the essence due to being active mainly during the night so this suggestion will be the solution. Wouldn't it feel unfair for the remaining players who are mainly active during the day, as they collect the essence but don't have time to spend it? Especially that by average night time is shorter than the remaining day phrases when you can only collect the essence?

@ Dżanek

I don't see how it wouldn't be fair if one can collect essence at any time day or night as long as your wolf is awake then other players would have the same opportunity. It's just unreasonable and promotes unhealthy habits to encourage people to stay up incredibly late just to collect the essence so one can go on to traverse the dreamscape to collect LT. I don't see how their would be anything unfair about it as it's not like there isn't a cap there to begin with. 

It takes nothing from others and people still have to put time to collect that essence via encounters and are still limited by the energy bar and max essence one is able to collect in the day. 

@Talmoi

Yeah :/ I hear you it is unfortunate on those days and really a bummer especially when one frequently checks in to see if they can explore for essence but that darn button is just up :(
