Ex: 4 Gaard + 1000 souls = 1 Yasmine

Same exact costs and rates apply. The current “chance” a medal has to upgrade just becomes what percentage of the level they will grant, which will stick on the troop until it “levels up”. The basic reasoning is that the rarity of I want to upgrade are not the rarity of medals I’m seeing with any degree of…
