Weapons, Pets & Troops are all behind the paywall. All three linked to kingdom progression. They mentioned the mythic will be available…sometime… in the drop pool & for crafting, but it could be a year till it shows up in soulforge rotation. And what about the pets & lesser troops?

Ow, this is beginning to look like several very well placed kicks into the place it hurts most for F2P players.

  • An exclusive mythic every 10 week campaign. Good luck farming 4k diamonds that fast for each campaign, especially when you might also still want to craft other things.
  • Several other exlusive troops (Kurandarito, Shade of Kurandara, Heart of Rage). Good luck ever getting those mythic, especially when you might still want to craft Zuul.
  • Several exclusive weapons (Devil’s Bane, Hammer of Force) . Good luck crafting those, some kingdoms haven’t had a kingdom event for a year. You’ll also need skip the exclusive mythic, not enough diamonds.

Not going to lie, this isn’t just disappointing, this feels like betraying the core spirit of the game. Yes, technically this stuff isn’t blocked behind a pay wall. But let’s be frank, everybody able to do basic math can easily see it also can’t be reached without scaling the pay wall. It’s outright impossible for F2P players to farm all resources required to post-craft these exclusives at the rate the campaigns crank them out. If you consider yourself a collector, this is the point where you either open your wallet for recurring payments or jump ship.

This will probably take roughly a campaign to sink in for most players. If any of the imploding guilds is up for a merger instead of just disbanding, feel free to send me a PM, we might be able to arrange something.

Thanks for doing the amounts of rewards. This shows that if you dont pay for elite pass, you are wasting your time for completing task that reward nothing but pitiful gold and souls. This only will detract you from farming gold and medal or even class xp.

I still don’t understand what we get when we pass 10 weeks of campaign without Elite. Only the bonus to skills?

At the same time, the Campaign forces us to spend rare event keys (maybe gem keys too) to complete some tasks or pay off with gems.

In no way in this a valid argument. I say that as a pretense…but…

It seemed like every comment I made during the stream was at least read by Salty with a few times her acknowledging them.
She opened up the stream to questions…I asked at least twice about delves/factions being altered in the future. Absolutely zero response. :man_shrugging:

If that turns out to be the case then that’s the dumbest thing I’ve read on the internet all week. Even dumber then thinking it’s reasonable to use gems to skip treasure hunts.

iirc, 2nd half of 2020 Delves were meant to be addressed, same as Arena and TH

I was waiting for this patch. I believed that he would change the Guild War. Equal in strength guilds will play among themselves. Instead, i received another step in the direction of the donation dump.

If you want, go discuss 5.0 here in a separate thread where it wont get lost

The amount should never be more than 2 event keys, 5 gem keys, 25 glory keys, and/or 50 gold keys each week depending on exactly what tasks are in the campaign that week, at least according to my understanding, but they are there. You can also spend gems, glory, or gold to purchase those keys.

Don’t you also have to spend crafting resources for some of the tasks, like crafting summoning stones?

Yes you do.

What is the gem cost to skip tasks?

Before xmas 2020 or 2021 :crossed_fingers:

But you can only skip the ones available that day right? As in no incentive to skip tasks to speed the campaign up? As long as you can do them that day without using gems, you should.
