I needed 300 BE to buy qiyana, and I think it probably took 10minutes or so just to buy all the BE "shards" or w/e.

Let's put this into perspective, I think this option was only ever implemented to let people use their odd 5-10 tokens at the end of an event, but I was short on BE and already used my FWOTD bonus.

To buy BE, it costs 1 token, for 10 BE. It is a CHORE to do this. I did it 30 times, scrolling all the way to the bottom, clicking craft, confirming it. Then when all is said and done, you have to OPEN the blue essence, 10 at a time! Why isn't there an "Open x" like there is on chests?

Hey friends :)

It's definitely a long and tedious process to convert tokens into BE or key fragments, so in the short term, we're adding options to convert more tokens for more BE or more tokens for a full key. Those options will be:

Buy 100 Blue Essence for 10 tokens Buy 1 full Key for 60 tokens That update will go live in 9.14, and will be present in future events from the beginning.

We're still interested in improving these processes/flows more, but I don't have any ETAs to share there yet.
