I feel this was always the weapon as it was planned to be. We’re usually getting those crappy weapons no one needs from guild events nowadays - when was the last good one (not counting tower of doom)?
I think whoever set up thet thing used the wrong spell text and we would have gotten this crappy thing anyway.
The devs made a dumb decision to change the weapon into a weapon that deals damage that resembles a journey event type weapon. We already have mirror type explosion weapons in rockstabba and go sticker, and it eventually would have happened anyway with so many weapons.
I know we already have mystic manuscript, but Mydnight desperately needed a weapon to generate mana. There are some powerful troops that can get through Underspire, but manually matching gems in this kingdom restriction is slow and painful.
I don’t think we will ever see “arcane edge” get changed to exploding purple gems again, but this feels like an unforced error that made Mydnight restrictions worse for no reason.
@Jeto I know you are busy, but it’s hard to let this go…
I wasn’t aware that there was some perceived excess value in “homogenizing” kingdoms in such a way. What’s the point in having 38 different kingdoms if they’re all going to play alike?
