what if this is the future journey plan. release them 1 gem stronger for journey, then random nerf them weeks after. the perfect plan.

That nerf is another reason to quit the game and spend money on other games instead.

Even with the “overpowered troop” many guilds didn’t finish the last journey event and now the troop is as useless as all the other pathfinder troops before …

🤣 you have a great plan to ruin the game. The cartographer helped so much and now may rest in peace ☹

Maybe notice this ish a tad quicker? It was talked to death during the journey event (aka two whole weeks ago.) The time to say ‘oops!’ was two weeks ago, even if you couldn’t fix it then. I personally knew this pooch was getting ummmm… loved? Because reasons. 🙄 But newer players kinda fell for this. Not cool! COMMUNICATE!!!

Well, at least they didn’t reply with an initial “not a bug, working as intended” then two years later realize “whoops, no it was a bug all along” and get complaints about fixing something that was _(ahem)_ … long overdue…

(Aside, I am a bit worried about the Pathfinder trait itself, though.)

“Summon a random book” = Maybe book of secrets, book of witches, tome of evil? Am I missing any?

all those 3 also summon… for the small crowd who play arena, take note of a summoner who summons summoners

Nice way of getting people to spend their shiny keys. That’s what thus looks like in case you don’t know…

Not that he’s great by any means as he was but at least slightly more usable. How about you buff the other journey troops so they at least could have a bit of a loop potential instead of never looping at all? Your AI tests don’t count because the AI “cheats”.

Also: Fix journey.

We didn’t finish journey while we’re usually done with all other events by Saturday.

“We noticed”? Seriously? Did you also happen to use this as a data point to determine the efficacy of the current design direction of journey as well? The pre-nerf version is _also_ underpowered, though mystics did have a bit better tools to finish under _turn_ count than the last couple troop types (although, time wise…)

More cards to pull from vault keys. Why not add them to event chests for when the kingdoms come around? The amount of cards you get from vault keys is insane. Please take cedric out too have over 2 thousand of him now 😄

Not until Friday he won’t 😛 as Succubus Queen is exclusive chests until then.

This is just another bait and switch. Release a troop that is actually useful, get you to wast you resources on the troop and event and then change it after.
