Some of the items we need for the crafting are very common. The void orbs, and blackrock, and the dark sapphire (to make void orbs) aren't so readily available.
How do you make Void Orbs from Dark Sapphire gems? I just checked the crafter menus and don't see that option. Who and how, please?
So yes I agree with your future prognosis of the event dying out in use, but not for the reasons you purport.
It will be interesting to see how things shake out as the event goes along; it seems this morning that even ATL is taking a while for people to "pitch in" on the taking down the gate. I used 3 kits and 2 barrels to get us started and I was the only one doing it... 15minutes later the gate is still standing. People must be tired from the weekend
