This is going to have a metric fuck-ton (unit of measurement) of feedback and completely break down the problems with this event.

To begin with, I'll copy-paste my input on this event from a discussion thread:
You need to beat 200 snakes for one (1) applicator.
Last year, Ra had abysmally low pass rates for a lot of breeders. There's barely over 1k on site, which, considering the population boom, is wacky.

TBH the apps are prohibitively expensive. The fact that we have 3-4 days where we can't earn any KB and don't earn rewards for doing the essence quests is really bad when you factor in how much apps cost. The snakes are difficult for even high stat players to beat most of the time considering LD's miss ratio in combat is wild. On top of that, the absolutely ludicrous amount of shops you have to earn a single currency for is WACKY.

These issues are compounded by how many apps you need to buy to breed the combo bases due to low pass rate.

TBH this entire event needs a re-work. The apps should cost no more than 250 KB - that's 100 more than the next highest cost item. The first 3 days should be earnable or at the least give rewards to make up for it. The cultists need their EXP payouts scaled to lion level - getting 50 EXP is pointless for anyone past level 5.

And on top of it all, three (3) battle-focused events in a row is exhausting.

May is also a battle-focused event. And after June, here comes July with another event with very difficult encounters that they needed to write an entire guide for players on how to beat them.

I'm so tired lol...

This event has far more issues with it than simply not earning in the beginning of the month. For example, other events lower the cost of older applicators. June does not. However, every single year, they add a new sought-after combo and 3 new applicators.

There are currently 18 old apps and 21 apps total, more than any other event on LD. And each one of these costs 400 KB.

Historically, "low currency drop" months price down the cost of applicators to make them more achievable. February is a great example of a low currency drop month with achievable content. New applicators cost 200 HS, old ones get lowered to 150 HS, and players also have the Flirt function to earn income in addition to battling and exploring.

March is another low currency drop month that's balanced well. Applicators aplenty, including marking apps, which players can earn both in the Poacher Chase minigame or by battling and exploring.

Conversely, the ONLY way to earn this month is through battling enemies that are very tough. And the same currency is spread across not one, not two, not even three shops, but FOUR shops now that they've added the Shrines on top of everything else.

Suggested Fixes:
- Lower applicator cost to 250 KB per applicator.
- Lower 2+ year old applicators to 200 KB per applicator.
- Have Thoth, Horus and Khnum encounters provide x1 KB per encounter interacted with.
- Give players x5 KB and EXP x 50 for completing "Essence Gathering" quests at the beginning of the month.
- Fix Anubis. He still sucks.

RE: Anubis
There are still times he does absolutely nothing for the entire duration of the fight. My suggestion is to have him lower the damage an enemy does to you by -3, the opposite of what Set does. Let the guard dog guard.
