Banner Lord Dragon Tournament - EVERYONE DO THIS!!!!11!!!
Putting on my best breathless content creator impression, I just want to say that the current tournament is insane value. 20 essence for 1800 tournament points.
Even if you sell all the gear, this is a great event. If you're early/mid game, just run Dragon 11 with Ronda and 4 banner lord food.
This gives 14k XP per run, which is valued at about 3.5 energy. That means you're paying 8.5 energy per run and get 9.6 tournament points on average, so the total cost is ~1600 energy, or 80 per essence, which is comparable to the drop rate on Iron twins 11 (ca 75 energy per essence). IT gives a bunch of soulstones in addition (worth much less than essences for a f2p account), while this tournament gives a bunch of silver.
On top of that, there's a path event going on so there's a bit of double dipping. I'm not going to do a full, detailed breakdown, but this is insanely good value. Normal tournaments have occasionally had 5 essence at the 2750 mark IIRC.
On my main account I have staltus, so will see about a team that beats stage 2h or something.
