So, do we know for sure that there will be a shop dedicated to vault and bounty events as well? If so, do we know that gems are involved to unlock tiers there as well? If so, then that is not good in my opinion. Unless there is an additional source of gems besides the current sources (gnomes included). ---

Yes they will be tier, we not sure if it will cost gems but there is a good chance all shop work the same imo ---

There is more chance to get a vault key during this event so if you lucky you might catch enough gems 😛 ---

If so, then that is not good in my opinion. Unless there is an additional source of gems besides the current sources (gnomes included). According to the patch notes, there will be a shop for raid, invasion and bounty. It doesn’t mention a shop for the vault event. So, some weeks will have 2 shops available while others just have 1. (Bounty is a side event. The notes state side events can happen once a month.) ---

Heh, yeah a lot of higher level players have no issues with the dungeons. But lower level ones do struggle occasionally. ---

The slider cannot lie 😉 . It’s easy to reproduce what I did. Again nothing in Sirrian’s post said that there are only 4 Tiers. Moreover, he expects guild to pay 500 gems and that “paying players” fight for 1st rank so I guess that these PP should give more than for the guild expectation. Finally, we get one copy of the special troop at Tier 2, let’s say the weapon Tier 3 and what? Tier 4: 15 copies of the troop? Noooo. Surely we will have a Tier with 5 copies and another one with 10 copies. And if there are 7 Tiers my estimation is something like 2100 gems by week. ---

Well, I’m done with speculation time. lol I’ll wait to see the actual number of tiers and the costs presented at reset. 😜 ---

> [@Sirrian](#): > > I have no doubt a few people might chase this, but warning: you can chase this with Gems! Our game has relatively few elements like this, and I’m okay with one or two being added… there is PLENTY of free stuff to do in Gems of War, and tons of ways to win completely for free… THIS leaderboard is not necessarily one of them though. But don’t worry, it’s not our intention to let this become a future focus of the game. At the same time, it is nice that we can have something in game for paying players AS WELL AS free players. I am a paying player (VIP 6). I’ve spent over $200 US on this game, and I’m against the idea of there being a leaderboard that can be won by Paying-to-Win. A hallmark of Gems of War for me is that you can achieve everything the game has to offer without pulling out your wallet…which is **exactly** why I’ve spent as much as I have. There are a lot of players who consider raw Gems to be the most valuable currency, and now two weeks out of every three, we no longer have that income to look forward to…unless Raid/Invasion rewards are going to include VIP keys (which is what I spend my Gems on). If that is the case, I will happily withdraw the cynicism! 🙂 I was really hoping we weren’t headed for another Gem nerf and we’re getting a double-sided one - no Gems from rewards + Gem sink in the form of the shop. The rewards from Raids and Invasions need to be awfully nice to overshadow this or I’m predicting some major backlash. > [@Sirrian](#): > > But don’t worry, it’s not our intention to let this become a future focus of the game. Do the devs control the financial side of the game? I always thought that was the publisher’s privilege. ---

I’ve never really understood what a publisher does for games that are digital. I get when a game is pressed to a disc, packaged, and shipped, that is the publisher that handles it. What do they do for digital games? Advertise? Maybe put up the money for the game to be developed in the first place like a producer?
