Not talking about crowns here but more of Mist to Crystals.

Would be nice to encourage players who don't have the time to play on certain nights to log in, for a little CE.
The issue I see, is that it might create an inflation on CE. Then again, the conversion could be a small amount, like a full tank, to 10 CE?

The game is fine as it is though, just a suggestion that can be considered.
And more options to manage energy is always welcome i feel. :DD

The problem is that people

The problem is that people would make fake accounts to start farming CE. Seriously, 10 accounts for something worth 3700 crowns, you think they'd just play the game.

Mist energy is free. Crystal

Mist energy is free. Crystal energy is only meant to come into the game from SOMEONE'S real money. I won't comment on whether that's good or bad for the long run, but that's the way its meant to be. But what you're doing will be adding crystal energy into the game for free.

Also like akragster said, people will farm accounts that way. Even with the existing limits on sharing accounts on a computer, this could be exploited by simply doing the cheap plan I hear of paying $0.75 to make one account a paid account. This makes that account not share energy with the other account.

How is that exploitable?
I buy energy for $0.75, how much energy is that like 200? I don't feel like checking. Main account is now separate from my secondary account.
Day 1 I do whatever on my main account. I do nothing on my secondary account. 100 free CE.
Day 2 I do nothing on my main account. I do nothing on my secondary account. 200 free CE (300 earned total).

In two days, I earned more energy than I bought with real money. And this energy will NEVER go away as long as the game runs. Meaning 2800-3100 energy per month, for a price of $0.75. And unlike mist energy, this doesn't even require me to do anything like actually craft or go to a dungeon. I can just leave that account there.

Now you suggested a small amount like 10 CE, even so, its a similar concept. Free CE for doing nothing.
