You know that mist energy takes so long to regenerate , why don't there be like , Mist tanks for sale at 5k crowns for 50 mist ? Or Mist tanks as a rare treasure from prize wheels or treasure boxes . since the mist tanks are really really rare , like , you only get one when you go up a tier . Mist tanks should be more common as the new players might find it annoying that energy is limited , and that CE is really really expensive . So , can anyone tell me how you think of this idea ?

Eh...
At 5k for 50 mist, that's 10k for 100...making it cheaper for you to just buy CE.
Math aside, I do like the idea of receiving mist tanks from the prize wheel or perhaps a lockbox. However, they would have to be rare enough that they wouldn't break the economy.
EDIT: Shoot, didn't see Juances reply there, but yeah same deal.

Where's that link Ironskullkid had... hold on and lemme find it.
Basically, mist tanks at 5k cr= crap. I agree mist tanks should appear as a probability a little more often. (bribing king krogmo, lockboxes, maybe even just a random blip from the recipe dealing stranger (forgot his name) occasionally while your depth delving, offering it for 6k cr.) However, the issue with mist tanks being a commonplace thing, is that ce prices will raise even further due to how easily you could farm cr if you just stockpiled mist tanks (as I'm sure many who have craptons of ce would do).
I also think in it's current state, the grind of SK is actually reasonable for an F2P game. Those that P2P can play however often they like (and for the cost of $6/month, that's cheaper than many games that I'd like to have) and those that F2P can dedicate an hour or two, or much less if they go the PvP'er route, to SK.

Hmm.....
You know , maybe , if that you can only have 1 mist tank at a time , and like what Schattentag said , they would have them be not as rare as they are now , like in prize wheels , treasure boxes ( as an rare item like weapons ) , and maybe make them more expensive , as to keep the CE economy from breaking up , like 100 mist for 6.5k from basil ( again not very common ) and maybe we can use tokens ( those you can find in treasure boxes ) to but buy the mist tank from brink for... 30 Forge sparks ? And , i feel that the mist energy tanks you get from king krogmo are really useless , as they on give you 15 mist , which is only enough for one level ,they should really increase the amount of mist in the mist tank that you get from king krogmo and make them a tad more rarer .

30 forge sparks is
30 forge sparks is essentially 3kcr (trading in the 100 spark trinkets you get 10kcr). I really don't see why you would want to buy mist tanks so much. Just buy CE since it is the same thing only you can trade it away later if you change your mind. Any attempt to put a price on mist tanks by OOO will essentially fix the CE market unless it is so rare that it is pointless.
If your objective is to play more, just do profitable T2 and T3 runs. Just go on a run with random players and friend those who are good. If you are good enough they will probably accept your friend request. Do runs with them so you don't waste CE on revives and so you can skip unprofitable levels. I paid $6 back in December and got 4 weeks of elevator pass and 2kce. I never used any of that CE (gave it all away to my brother) and I still have both the stranger hats. However, I can still play as much as I want without the elevator pass and I'm not rich by any means (but I'm not dirt poor either). You just need a few hundred CE kept in reserve to run more levels to earn CR to buy CE and repeat.
"Mist tanks for sale at 5k crowns for 50 mist ?"
"...and that CE is really really expensive"
Derp
100CE is like 7k, 50ce would be 3,500 crowns. It's even cheaper than your suggestion.
