Despite me being more accepting of the upcoming troops I do think thete are things that can be done to aid the masses. Such as:

1. Mass glory for sale
2. Halving the glory cost for event troops during the catch up
3. Let people know the plan 2-3 weeks in advance; giving them a chance to prepare
4. Id imagine PC has established what arcanes are most sought after - be sensible spacing out their availability

Well every Arcane is covered by upcoming Troops except Stealth. So first and foremost, Arcane Traitstones should be made available to us because the PC got the opportunity to. This is 80% of my concern behind my make-or-break statement.

Troops and Traitstones isn’t cheap. A discount would work, so would making Gems or even Gold as valid currency would work.

* * *

With that said, I’d release a Kingdom each week, because there is only 2 or 3 Troops each. A small discount would probably be easier than adding a button for another currency.

We still have Imps, Mythics and your 2-3x Troops a week to contend with. Either PC gets less Troops or we get dumped with Troops and either run out of resources, or we miss out on copies/Traitstones.

</div>

I see. I think I understand the sentiment. If you miss out on traitstones, though, doesn’t that put everyone in the same boat? I mean, when traitstones were first introduced, a bunch of troops suddenly entered the scene without stones. Is it a matter of suddenly feeling like you’re trailing behind?

</div>

If they release kingdoms at a time, with different troops having different arcanes, wont it lead to problems with resources? What about releasing multiple troops (that require the same arcanes) together where possible

</div>

Not if we are meant to be on par with PC. However, since there is no server cross-play, you are correct that all Console players would be on level ground.

@Robert’s idea of grouping them by Traitstone would work as well. You’d get an Event conflict. One or more Troops not part of the appropriate Kingdom.

These will the numbers considered my Realistic Weekly Resource Accumulation.

I’m level 361 with only 1 5\* kingdom but a lot of traits thus far. Do I count as endgame yet?

</div>

Personally I would consider someone close to endgame if they achieve around 75% of the levels/upgrades the game has to offer:

a) Level 750  
b) 75% of troops at Mythic and traited  
c) 75% of kingdoms fully leveled

Of course, that’s all subjective!

I save my Event Keys for new Kingdoms but open everything else as they group into 50s. They are my primary sources for Traitstones and the odds of me getting Troops I need are so small for me now.

Whats the plan for unlocking mythic troops (assuming they will start in the next few weeks)?

Boring stockpiling keys but I cant justify spending them when im only missing a few cards

I can’t speak for Talia, however, I’d imagine he’s not that concerned about War if said mythic is the first to get released.

Famine is the main mythic you want to hunt down.
