We need better access to opulent umbral energy/season of the haunted weapon patterns

The inaccessibility to opulent umbral energy is a real pain point for acquiring season of the haunted weapon patterns. I can totally understand and appreciate tinkering and testing new and different things for the seasonal model, but this did not age well at all. With 10 craftable weapons from the crown of sorrow, being limited to old seasonal content as the only access to the currency is not fun. My current play pattern is to grind enough Containments or Sever missions to get 27 opulent energy to get the guaranteed red boarder weapon that I need from the crown. RNG may help with another red boarder drop, but rarely does it feel helpful. I know very little of how difficult changes to the game can be, but I believe the simplest solution to implement would to adjust the price of the weapons at the crown of sorrow in the helm.

    People will find anything to complain about…. I’ve only been back for this season and I easily crafted all the opulent weapons. Haunted weapons were the easiest, as you get a chance at a red border every single opulent key you get. Just park your character at the boss part of the castellum and come throw a couple grenades and a super every time you beat the stupid witch shrieking. The castellum doesn’t have the 3 minute afk kick, it kicks probably every 10-12 minutes. This is also where I still return to for leveling weapons for resonant elements. 2 clears levels the weapon. Edit: only use the 27 cost weapons if there is one one you realllly want. Otherwise grab the cheapest one till you’ve completed all the red borders but 1 or 2, then switch to haunted or opulent ones. THEN target the expensive ones. Every week you’ll get a guaranteed red border. I wait until Monday to claim it to see what ones I get randomly before reset.
