bad newsI'm currently leaning towards leveling it to 10.
Rationales:
1) Power Creep. Having 2 Lvl 4s may look good now, but you might only want 1 eternal market by next year. Might as well have that 1 market be the top level one. The more concentrated the power in a building, the more likely it stays useful longer.
2) Sanctum-City needs a lot of pop anyways. And Lunar Market does that adequately without taking up more space. Comparison, with current items, is for example 1 Red Horizon (lvl 8) + 2 Yukitomo Towers vs 2 Urban Horizons:
2 Urban Horizons Red Horizon + 2 Yukitomo Nominal Space 72 72 Population 320,320 343,810 Collection FP 720 578 Finish FP 360 360 Avg GBG Boost 290 346 Sanctums Supported 15 16 Plus 2 Rooms
A further 3 sanctums worth of pop and 64 avg GBG boost will be added by the last two levels to Lunar Horizon - but i wanted to make the comparison fair as 8 levels for both.
Personally I don't think the small advantage in collection FP is worth the loss in population and boost. The ability to eat finishes up for big FP is equal in either case and that's the main draw, FP-wise. I'd rather have the best population-efficiency I can out of it. Whether that be for sanctums, ascended QI stuff, or whatever new toys come along that I decide I must have for a time.
only one Ethernal Market possible
(since today on beta)
