Recently, I've been reading all sorts of ideas about this new system. Before you read this, you should read my other thread: http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/27829
My idea is to lower the price of keys, but not substantially, to about 300 ce (about half of the original price). This is so that people will have more of an incentive to acquire these keys, and increase the buying power of people with ce.
Or, we could implement GOLD keys, which never break when opening lockboxes, so people with ce wont have to buy lots of keys if they want a lot of accesories.

3UV variant ticket price was
3UV variant ticket price was high but they dropped it a bit. I know it was valued in crowns and not CE but one can dream...
Even if it costed 20 bucks they'd lose out. Of course everyone's going to [tart] about the price of keys right now, but in the end you'll all bend over and take it in the butt just like everyone in team fortress did.
Gold keys, would at best, have a 25% chance to break for 3x the cost. 2100 ce for a key that has a 25% break chance, so it can be a waste of money, or a great investment.
In short, key prices won't go down. Did you not notice how 2.50 = a key in spiral knights, but in team fortress 2 keys also go for 2.50? Then boxes go for free, and you have to find them? In both games? Do you not see the connection? The price will never go down. Deal with it.
If it does, foot and mouth but not complaining.
