This “guaranteed PEN path” was developed as a catch up mechanic for new and returning players.

You will probably want to do this for at least 1 Weapon and at least 2 Armors. You should have a Free TET Blackstar Mainhand from Leveling Up & Free Armor Piece from completing Magnus.

Good Stuff!

This event is teribly designed. It's more expensive than actual PEN enchants, it takes longer than actual PEN enchants. It essentially prevents you to do any PEN enchants, because of alocating resources into the event. I feel like whoever designed this, didn't do any or a very few PEN enchants. Point in case, players are replacing those event TET pieces for live(market) TET pieces.

You really should just give away TET enchantable non-tradable pieces. Would been hundred times better. I am half way through first guaranteed PEN, and already farming FS on TET Blackstar, which got me also first TET accesory, and if Blackstar proc, then it's 12 bil. A completely different experience from what you presented in the event.

Totally agree. You can buy the pens off the marketplace for the same price. It just comes down to who would you rather pay; the npc or the player. If they maybe reduced the memory fragments by half or less. Then I'd say it's fair. Other then that there's no reason to do it after the first one because the price becomes the same as the marketplace. I'd rather buy tet blackstar. So first weapon to pen and then first two armors to pen. Then the rest is the same. Not much difference in making it yourself or buying it from the market.

Id like to know in what planet server you can buy a pen armor or weapon for less than 10B lol

you're right, only the 1st and 2nd weapon are less than 10b

3rd weapon is more than 10b

weapon for example:

200x magical shards = around 1.2b

1000x memory fragments = around 2.8b

150x concentrated magical black stone (weapon) = around 400 mil

oquilla crystals for 1st weapon are 30, 2nd weapon 70 and 3rd weapon 120. 

30x oquilla crystals = 1.5b

so, now you also need 30x concentrated boss aura = tri boss weapon = 800 mil.

but, you dont need to pay in my mind. you can grind everything what´s listed, thats pretty easy. just take a lil bit time but its easy to get pen!
