So the Devs want the players to earn the LP crafting as a reward for beating Julra but Julra’s dungeons can be frustrating sometimes as each time you need to craft LP, you need to challenge the dungeon.
Yes, you can challenge the low-tier Julra just to make sure you get the LP crafting, but there’s the level restriction and when you mix a core crafting system as a all-or-nothing reward locked behind a boss challenge, it becomes counter-intuitive.
I think there are alternative solutions to this:
a) Legendary crafting available before Julra. The players have worked for it, sometimes spending a lot of time because of the horrible backtracking and because they don’t want to exploit bugged traversal skills to go through the barriers, so they should be rewarded the chance to do a LP crafting at the end of the dungeon before taking on Julra.
By doing this, players will be encouraged to push themselves to do higher tier to see if they can defeat higher tier Julra without worrying about their Legendary crafting.
b) Legendary Crafting Currency or Token. I think this will be a better solution as this allows players to do Legendary crafting whenever they want, but they still need to work for it.
Token system is simple. This has been suggested in Reddit. Julra drops Tokens for Legendary crafting. Higher Tier Julra have chance to drop more tokens. Tokens are used to craft Legendary.
Currency system would work in a similar way, but this would allow the devs to set the “price” for different type of Legendary crafting more easily (just like how many favors needed in selling items in MG).
The Token/Currency system also makes it easier to reward players who end up spending more time in the Dungeon due to backtracking as we can allow monsters in Dungeon to drop Legendary Crafting Token or Currency.
This system also encourages people to have their alts to challenge the Dungeons, because they can save up their Legendary Crafting opportunity to use down the road.
I like Challenges. I think Julra’s mechanism is great, but Legendary crafting shouldn’t be an all-or-nothing reward locked behind her.
