I'm not sure if this has been a topic before but I think it would be cool If we can have A mist upgrade trinket that temporarily expands limit +10 - +50 mist depending on the number of stars (like heart pendant). I have no idea how much it should cost or the possible effect of having it introduced into Spiral Knights would be....
Mist upgrade Trinket.
While this wouldn't be "overpowered" so to say, it would greatly affect the economy. If this was put into the game, a player can just make a bunch of pendants, give them to their alt accounts, and make an endless supply of 3* weapons at no cost.
Trinket slots cost 150 energy each, so what you're saying is to spend energy to get energy... Makes sense.
Never heard of this idea before, so props for being original.
Nevertheless, as nearly everyone's already said it would cause some problems, especially since you can equip two of them and then buy yourself Trinket slots everyday with some energy to spare. It would also cause some problems with how people price their things since now they can have an extra 100 energy for crafting and can generally make more money as well. Then there's the problem of
I still like the idea of increasing Mist in some way though, game-breaking as it may be. If something were ever implemented into the game that would allow that, it would have to be something based on a player's achievements and has to be linked to their account so there wouldn't be any problems with losing Mist if they ever made another Knight. But until there's a way for OOO to do such a thing without utterly destroying SK's economy, it would never happen.
I used to think this was a good idea, but then I took an arrow to the knee.
Messing with the energy economy directly is not a good idea, sorry.

Actually this was my Idea :P
WAAAAAYYYYY BACK in May 2011 when I was only in 2* gear, I made a detailed thread about Mist trinkets That Increase Mist regen time based on What type it was (I.E Mist Regeneration Time Decrease: Medium= 1 mist regenerated every 10.2 minutes instead of 1/13.2)
So his idea was unoriginal :D
I saw a thread like this before. It had extra mist trinket slots, where you could put extra mist tank capacity that would expire like Weapon and Trinket slots. Seemed like a good idea. Still does.

The amount of sarcasm in this thread...
Is too dang high.

I'd rather see a trinket that increased the regeneration rate of mist by a small amount.

I meant the old idea. Not this one. It would basically be like buying a more-expensive elevator pass, but for CR/CE instead of $$. Ofc, it would be much less cost-efficient.
How about you just make an alt? If you've bought money on your main, you've got another mist tank.
@Klipik, Hmm, how's this sound; increase your mist capacity to 150, and then buy trinket slots for a month. That totally doesn't sound ridiculous at all.
You could change the system so you can't buy Supply Depot items with mist - I didn't know you could do that, anyway. That doesn't even make sense the way it is.
P.S. changed "cost-inefficent" to "cost-efficient'". Because it makes sense that way.
Looky looky at the price for a trinket slot http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Kozma
