What is a decent compensation to give us for the day the devs rolled GOW back

Bonjour, merci pour cet exercice mais cela fait trop trop longtemps qu’on nous prend pour des imbéciles et des vaches à lait. Aucune excuse aujourdhui. Ce qui comptait c’était de szuver la pompe à fric… j’arrête de jouer mes deux comptes, VIP 16 et 11.. Encore perdu 500 gemmes hier.

The first thing I’d like to see is an actual apology, rather than the usual blaming of gremlins or gnomes or imps or whatever…

Except… some of us didn’t play because we saw the crazy rewards, saw all of the crazy mythic spam, and saw the rollback coming a mile away. Why spend the hours I would normally spend, for nothing? At no time did I think, “ya! I can skip GoW, today!” I was bummed that I would miss out on needed marks, dragonite, stones, gems, etc.

I’m not saying that is, or should be, worth the same as actually spending those hours (although I can’t understand anyone believing this wouldn’t get a rollback…but that’s another thread.) But forcing yourself not to play, when you WANT to play, because you know it will be for nothing is, and should be, worth more than simply not logging in because you hardly ever do.

So how do they determine whether you were robbed of a day of play or wouldn’t have played anyway?

Compensation in this case is hard to measure. Some people lost next to nothing. Some lost a bit of time investment. Some lost a lot of time investment when spending hour on PvP ranking or doing their whole week of Tower Sigils that evening or the entire Underspire, etc. Some lost rare cards gotten from RNG chests, Underspire or Gnome Vault. Some people threw real money at the screen to buy boosts, passes or whatever and if everything got rolled back but the money is gone then that is certainly a real problem for the support.

As bare minimum for compensation I would say

  • Stars for Astral Spire. Minimum the “daily” amount we lost. Can toss in some extra as good will.
  • Minimum the goldmarks from yesterdays two kingdoms that got rolled back. Again, there could be some more because the vast majority of players might still need tons of goldmarks [even if only to spend on Dragonite or RNG books].
  • Adding VP as general measurement for everyone is a bit eh. But since we have the VP icons, I guess handing a minor sum might do the trick. Lets say everyone gets a gold icon for 5000 VP, that should be a insult for the hardcore players, who wasted 3+h yesterday, but mor ethen enough for the casuals or people that did not bother to play.
  • Regarding PvP, some Glory can be also tucked in. Most people that played several hours yesterday for ranking might rather have aimed for ranking and goldmarks, but still Glor lost on that part.
  • Also some Gold lost from the grind, but that is probably neglectable. Even if we look towards GW upcoming and could use some gold injection for Legendary Tasks :wink:
  • Some Gems. As currency it lost a bunch of appeal imo, but still has some uses for lots of people. While I don’t expect like 10% of the wrongly send mail items [highest I saw in screeshot was over 70.000 gems in mail. I only got 33k myself] I would assume starting at 200 Gems and maybe going for 500 or 1000 might not be the worst idea. Will not crash the market or boost people to the moon.
  • There are the rare cases of people pulling a perfect daily Dungeon, or catching 1-2 Dragonite Gnomes. So compensating some Dragonite overall might be good too. Lets say 100. Thats not too much but enough to feel valuable.
  • Some extra ToD sigils would be good to compensate for the “changed” tower floors today which makes yesterdays scouting useless. Sadly weekend is also half finished now and the event almost over. Since I doubt recompensation comes quick enough to play a role, this might fall flat.
  • Some extra Underspire torches might be nice. But agaiin: Week almost over and not sure this gets adressed in time. So maybe pack in some free lanterns to use whenever for people later.

I guess a lot of people are rightfully pissed by losing specific progress. Especially people who threw real money around yesterday. So will be interesting to see how the devs might tackle this issue once the weekend is over and they decide its time to adress the elephant in the room.

For STARTERS give everyone 24 hours of whatever their regular hourly rewards would be.

For myself that would be

22,441 gold x 24 hours or 538,584 gold

2,499 souls x 24 hours or 59,976 souls ( though don’t really need souls)

634 glory x 24 hours or 15,216 glory

35 gems x 24 hours or 840 gems

Normally I collect 18 hourly rewards a day as I am disabled so what I lost was

22,441 gold x 18 hours or 403,838 gold

2,498 souls x 18 hours or 44,982 souls (again I don’t really need souls)

634 glory x 18 hours or 11,412 glory

68 gold keys x 18 hours or 1,224 gold keys

35 gems x 18 hours or 630 gems

I think they should also replace the 60 stars stones at least if not triple them

I also lost 120 Dragonite from a perfect run yesterday so today I can’t craft a ln evil dragon egg so feel they should replace that OR better yet give me the 1 dragon I need to craft the 2nd weapon then I can craft the 2 nd weapon and the big weapon needed to craft Pandemonium.

On top of giving me the missing rewards that I should have received when I bought the library pass to begin with

I just don’t want to play this mess anymore. How can you compensate for the loss of respect for developers? Not at all! How can I cure my stroke? Not at all! How can I get back to this pay-to-win scam? Not at all!

I don’t know how to forgive? Maybe. But I am me.

They can keep their lousy compensation. Unrelated to the bug the reroll has cost me way more than 300.000 gems worth of stuff, time and money …

It’s the same here, brother! 20 hours of active play have been flushed down the toilet and no one is even apologizing.
