Eternium has historically been plagued with balancing and bugs that have been released to general game far too often.
The current Beta system does not work and is not even really utilized. Probably because the system does not work.
My suggestion:
Release your new updates into a “Beta Environment” similar to the way you run the ANB events.
The advantages could be huge.
1. you could decide on whether equipment crafted can be carried over to the main account or not. A simple warning at character creation time.
2. There does not need to be any “event rewards”.
3. You’ll be getting feedback without all the bitching and complaining.
4. The environment could run without any specific timelines or limits.
