I’m really not a fan of investing the Hallowed Marks to increase your efficiency.
Since we haven’t seen any numbers (that I’m aware of) it’s hard to say when it would/wouldn’t be worth it, but it strikes me as an infuriating process (similar to getting the magic watering can for the sole purpose of making tithe farm easier on your way to the farming outfit).
I would love if we could somehow tie it into some other content, or maybe just make the efficiency upgrades something random or level-based (depending on other skills). I don’t have much solution to offer unfortunately, just my two cents :)
Thanks for the feedback!
I agree that we need to make sure we get the numbers right, I have seen more people in favour with the Hallowed Mark system than against it but it's expected that we can't please everyone. When it comes to gauging how effective the upgrades are we can only playtest it ourselves and then listen to post-release feedback hopefully the tools will feel worth it to get without being mandatory to do the content
