-Alchemy Alternative Supply -
Allows you to craft itens by using Alchemy Supply Energy(item).

Alchemy Supply Energy costs:
3 Stars - 14000 crowns
4 Stars - 27600 crowns
5 Stars - 54400 crowns

Using Supply Energy-
Just like the normal alchemy, you need a recipe, the materials detailed in the recipe, Crowns, and an alchemy machine.

Advantages of using Alchemy Supply Energy-
>Fix cost.
>No need of Market to alchemy.

Disadvantages of using Alchemy Supply Energy-
>By using this item, the craft item will not get Unique Variants.
>You can use ONLY for normal alchemy(Can't be used on Sanctuary Alchemy Machine).
>This item lasts 24 hours.
>You can get this item once for day. So be careful.

This is essentially a way to get around using energy to craft by using more crowns instead at a lower price:

Currently, CE prices are about 8,500Cr:100CE.

The 3* price for your proposed system would translate to a 70Cr:1CE ratio, lower than the current market price.

The 4* price for your proposed system would translate to a 69Cr:1CE ratio, even lower than the previous rate which is already low.

The 5* price for your proposed system would translate to a 68Cr:1CE ratio, even lower than the previously lower previously low rate.

This is just a way to get around the energy market to craft 3*+ cheaper.

@Luguiru

Just taking some notes:
>You can't do this all the time, since there is a limit to get the Supply Energy(once per day).
>You will aways pay the same price, because its fixed
>You can use only to do alchemy. So it's purely for Alchemy.
>Can not be sold or traded.

But thx for you perception. Anything you can contribute just tell, and I will update.

Nope

No matter how you slice it, you're suggesting that a standard crown fee be paid instead of a standard energy fee, and you're thus suggesting that there be a standardized crown-to-energy exchange rate. Thus you're suggesting something that will drastically change the economy as we know it, and you're suggesting something that will bring rage from anyone who wants to sell energy at a higher rate than what you're suggesting.

@Manalicious

Thx for you comment.
But, as far I know, there is already a rage on CE market...but from who wants to buy it.
And the Economy is already changing drastically...energy fee is increasing at a massive rate...but the problem it is too fast.
The big difference, unfortunately, its about the sides...

All your equations are missing the excess mist energy you may have to craft something, or the use of multple characters, (unless you play non-stop, there must be a time where you're not using all your mist)

With that in mind, your solution is even more expensive than buying energy at say 8500 from market.
With one character and a full mist tank (100 energy) I only need an extra 100 crystal to craft 3* stuff. That is 8500 crowns, not 14000 like your idea.

Say you dont want to spend all your mist right away, but play a little. You use 50 mist, and now you need another 50 crystal:
8500/2=4250
8500 + 4250 = 12750
12750 < 14000

Unless you really play 24/7 without anythign else to do in your life, or prices keep increasing even more and never drop, the difference is minimal to actually bother with this system.
