Isn’t it too much to spend precious inglots to level up a kingdom?

It’s not supposed to be instantaneous. If you want it, you have to put in some effort. And what else are you going to do with all those ingots you’ve been saving anyway?

But to be fair River when you think about it, the Ingots weren’t well planned in first place, and i’m not talking about the Weapon Upgrades with sabbotaging effects.

I see it affecting the economy, from another thread:

1015 legendary tasks*

As Awryan said in the updated OP, it’s kind of ludicrous to think this way. I believe very few people considered the recent changes deeply. My personnal view is that right now everyone is “pressured” to get more engaged in earning gold/trophies by doing more PVP and Arena. We can’t acquire Ingots outside PVP or Arena. And in explore the Hero Talent XP is halved, or you can consider that PVP/Arena is doubled but anyway, there is very little reason to play Explore except for the very specific en…

Did the devs considered that introducing such costly upgrades would directly impact the amount of gold being generated lately? This plan can backfire in their faces, all players in general will keep playing PVP pursuing these ingots. Some newish/semi-veteran player needs a lot of ingots, even low rarity ones, and they too are generating much more gold now, too many legendary tasks being finished in guilds all around and that’s the design the devs choose…

I’m not sure if Delve will help at depleting our gold, because our access to the treasure cards, which we use to upgrade the hoards, is random and very limited everyday (only 3 delve Scrolls) which by design is ok, but as a counter/gold sink it won’t work until later i think.
