[07:03:51] Broadcast: 974 pieces of essence are required to summon the double XP event.
[07:03:51] Collection Event: event essence is dropped by elite monsters. Return found essence to NPC Evento in the Ellaria depot.

Event essences are getting delivered very slowly and the reason for this is that people collect them in their backpack/dp w.e. just to be able to finish by theirselves once they have enough.

My proposal is to make these event essences disappear in lets say 48hours if you do not deliver them. This way they wouldn't stay in hands and event will happen way sooner.

This wont work anyway. Itll take MONTHS for a playerbase like this to loot 1k essence.. this event was 100 essence tokens and that took around 2days to be activated with 50-100 players on the seasonal server haha.

I've killed over 50k of all dragons with an elite count of 500s, thats in roughly 100-150 levels lmao.

One option would be to use it automatically when the player loot it.

IF Staff's goal wants.....
The event to be a forced event and no hording of essence.....
Then they must have % chance to invoke on elite monster's death with global scripting.
Problem solved.

IF Staff does not mind.....
People will continue to make an economic monopoly with the event essence....
They already do in the past with pcards, etc (NO NAMES).
No problem.

P.S.
The power is in the Staff!
While this is comic, that is totally appropriate for children!,
