There should be more achievements so we can "earn" more ME. (If the achievements are thought out properly it could boost gaming activity and sales)
You will need to achieve certain tasks to earn the rewards.

There will be lots of achievements, each listed underneath certain categories. Once you complete an entire category, you will receive 1 Mist Tank. For example:
Vita Knight (Category)
Run 5/10/15/20/50* depths in a row
Run 5/10/15/20/50*depths without reviving yourself
Run 5/10/15/20/50* depths without being revived by others
Run 5/10/15/20/50* depths without dying once
Revive 10/20/50/100/200/500* times (other players by either attacking/CE/ME)
(for the achievements with a * next to them, they are called bonus achievements which do not need to be completed to earn the 1 Mist Tank for completing an entire category)

Some suggested Categories:
Crazy Collector (Having certain sets and then eventually every single gear in the game)
Crafting Master (Crafting all swords, guns etc then eventually everything in the game)
Monster Hunter (Attacking every single kind of NPC and then certain amounts of each)
Tough Cookie (Blocking certain amount of attacks and then blocking attacks from every type of NPC)
Brawny Bunch (Dealing xxx amount of damage every run, altogether and in solo/group runs)
Firearm Fanatic (Using all types of guns and damaging every single NPC with it)
(Just a few, all suggestions are welcome!)

For every achievement you complete, you will earn a random amount of ME (1- 10) for the bonus achievements (e.g 50*) you will earn a random amount of (5 - 20). For those Uber knights who achieve ALL the categories, you will receive an EXTRA 100CE and 1 Mist Tank and earn yourself a special icon next to your name (the mark of an Ultimate Knight).

Now onto Snipes.
You know the cute little birds you see randomly flying all around Haven?
Yeh those.
Well, there should be a mini-game where we can try and "catch" these birds. When we catch one of these snipes we get the chance to battle them! Of course, these lil birds are VERY evasive, so it may take a while to "tame" them. To "tame" one of them, you must first kill it in battle and then raise it afterwards. You will be given a MAXIMUM of 10 minutes to kill the snipe you caught. If you manage to kill your snipe in under 2 minutes, you will have the chance of your snipe to gain a special ability. Of course, this will vary depending on how hard it is to catch/kill your snipe (e.g flying snipes are harder to kill than the non-flying ones), the type of snipe (colour wise) and also how rare it is also. Each time you play this game, it will cost you 10 ME or CE. You cannot trade these birds.

How to Tame your Newly Caught Snipe?
You must feed it 1000 crowns. For every crown you feed it, it will become +1 more tamed. Once its Tame Meter is full, you will be able to level it (like a piece of gear) up to Level 10. Once it reaches Level 10, it will gain the ability to appear next to you in other areas besides from the Clockworks (so you can show them off there too!).

Dressing your Snipe
When tamed, you will be able to dress your Snipe with special Snipe costumes found at one of the vendors (Basil/Kozmo) and perhaps maybe even enter them into Snipe contests?

Equipping your Snipe
You will need to buy a special slot called a "Snipe Slot" in order to take your Snipe in battle with you. The slot will cost CE and be somewhat equivalent to how much a gear slot costs.

Additional Info
You can only 1 snipe at a time (there will also be achievements for collecting all the snipes and other sort of things to do with them)

Just some things I've thought of, and think would be nice for the game.
And also, perhaps 100 ME per 15 hours instead of 24? Wouldn't kill the game (business wise), but its a lot better than waiting for a whole day. Lol.

Convert some of the Snipe CE

Convert some of the Snipe CE costs to crowns.... sink achieved. People will be less paranoid over spending crowns then they do CE (because prices keep climbing)

@Miss_Maggie I have to say

@Miss_Maggie

I have to say Miss_Maggie, that this is an impressive and well thought out suggestion, and it would be amazing if everyone had the time/spent the time to come up with something like this! Very inventive the way you came up with the achievement names =]

The Brawny Bunch achievement, I would say, is slightly restricted because the damage you deal in a depth/run is somewhat limited to the maximum amount of mobs that will spawn. We're already rewarded if we choose to kill ALL mobs (and not just the minimum) by heat and by the mats/crowns that they might drop.

In general, with regard to achievements, I am always up for those that involve skill and hard work, rather than those which reward people who simply play a lot. The problem is, Three Rings essentially want people just to play a lot =]

@wates101 I'm pretty sure Miss_Maggie knows there are only 30 depths, but in suggesting 5/10/15/20/50 she is merely anticipating the release of a tier 4, tier 5, and so forth to imply longevity in her suggestion.
