I'm not sure if it's already suggested or I'm just too lazy to search.

This shortens the progress to forge your 5 star gear thereby making your gear easier to level up. This also motivates more players to play the game, especially for veteran players who have trouble forging new 5-star gear. I think it'll be nice--at least for us--to get this drop rate monthly or bimonthly. The double radiant drop rate will last for 24 hours.

Also I also want to suggest a few accessory ideas I would like to be added. However I'm still thinking more things that make them a little more interesting. It's not best idea in the world just me making ideas.

-Prismatic Honor's Sash - Front Armor Accessory - A beautiful sash for your front armor, makes your feel special. It has Spiral Order symbol on the sash with the gold border and decorated patterns with your personal colors.

-Angelic Aura - Aura Armor Accessory - It's color also the same as your personal color, but at cartoonish angelic like wings falling around u in a circle and a small glowing light around you in the middle.

-Ankle Wings - Rear Armor Accessory - Comes in many color, just a small pair of wing for your ankle... it moves and it's like your able to run fast, but not really... it does nothing...

-Pit Boss's Tie - Front Armor Accessory - We just need a tie and there's no tie in this game so why not? It's a Pit Boss Tie for your knight and comes in many color.

-The Knight's Fro - Top Helm Accessory - I though it would be funny to add a Afro to your helm.

-The Spark of Light - Top Helm Accessory - It's light bulb that floats on your head as if you have an idea.

-Oblivion Horns - Top Helm Accessory - A Shadowy clouds shape like horns similar of the Devious Horns but a little thinner and a arc downward shape.

+1 in general

I like it. I'd call it..."Forge Fridays."

The only problem with "Forge Friday" is that it could bias the playerbase to only play on certain days, and we want players to play every day, ya?

So maybe not a set day, but a random day, announced in Forums, like Flash Sales - but more frequently than the Flash Sales, around once a month or a little more, as you say.

Those accessories sound very beautiful, and the fro made me laugh.

+1 as well

These ideas are great.

If they could create double drop rates for the Grinchlin Assault mission from last Winterfest, why couldn't they implement that into Fire Crystals?

The accessories are great. I'm surprised there hasn't been a tie in this game yet.

@Dracora
I also like the afro.

Who misses Power Surge weekends? Forge Fridays would be awesome!

I certainly wouldn't mind a small event like this, and it seems like something that SEGA would enjoy-- easy to pull off, filler that people would appreciate. A lot of players don't need radiant fire crystals and are lacking orbs, life sparks, shinning fire crystals, whatever else. What about just double rarity drops as a whole? That way, we aren't excluding anyone and it doesn't flood the economy with crowns or anything of that sort.

Or maybe more like 50% more, since double is a bit of a strong word, pending on how the developers feel.

It could work.

With the removal of mist energy we've lost and gained a lot of things, but one of the draws were power surge weekends. Having a blast furnace overload weekend would be a great replacement.
And I say "weekend" because this would allow sufficient time for any player who doesn't have time on one day to take full advantage of this time period.

However, instead of doubling drop rates, I would say halve the fire crystal requirements and/or increase forging percentages, plus increase heat gains like half of a free heat amplifier. Heck, make sprite appetite increase relatively faster as well. This makes the weekend directly affect all players working towards gear, and works like how power surges did - bring players into the game to play the clockworks.

A double-drop weekend could also work, but have it be limited to the arcade if that happens. It would make shadow lairs or boss gates relevant again, at least for a moment in time, while discouraging running FSC until your brain falls apart without a bit of effort to get there.
