We had changed the crafting ratio as when we first did this earlier this year with the old and new Phoenixes the ratio was 3:1
True, but for me the fact that you already have to choose between the new bear (from this year event) and a previous one (from last year or more) is already enough, because you can't get everything.
Making it twice more expansive just bring the possibilities to very low, because most of the player won't be able to upgrade it to the top level, unless they plan to finish it next year... not much of a plan I think because it means you'll have to sacrifice 2 main event building for only one (and if you don't know what will be next event then you may even be stuck into two good possibilities).
Giving more rewards possibilities/choices = yes.
Making some rewards too expansive = getting back to get almost everyone choosing for the same reward (the cheapest but still great one).
