Well done Plarium
I must give credit where credit is due and if ever there was a game company deserving of due credit, it would be Plarium.
In the last update you guys managed to fix something that wasn't broken and leave it badly broken, nerf a champion by improving it, over nerf a useful champion that really needed no nerfing, and drop team power ratings with no explanation.
I know I missed a few deserving "improvements". If I did could someone please point them out?
Seriously people, did ANYONE ever complain that the team leader was dropping from multi-battles? I never saw it happen. NEVER. And I would bet that nobody ever saw it happen. So, please explain how you guys managed to write code to make sure the leader doesn't get dropped if he achieves max level and end up with code that drops champs that are max level? How is that even possible? It defys logic. Then again, logical is not a word that has ever been used to describe Plarium. Never. Ever.
Steel Bowyer. Yes. She was a bit op. Now she's essentially useless. A 7 turn skill cd that can be 5, eventually. It takes 21 tomes for that to happen. 21. On a rare champ. TWENTY ONE. Let that sink in for a minute. Twenty one. You could have adjusted her dps. BUT NOOOO! You had to wreck her. A multi attack skill that was useful vs fk and cb is now useless. You double nerfed 1 skill. How do you guys decide these things? Do you make a list of the worst things you can do to a champ and then implement them? That's how it looks from here.
I don't have Tomb Lord, but from what I have read you managed to turn meh into meh. Wow. Impressive.
My usual arena team dropped from just over 40k power to just over 37k. How? What did you guys do?
Equipped gear can now be destroyed free of charge. This one really is the worst new "feature" in the update. The absolute worst. How high and or drunk was the group that decided this was necessary? Was there ever once a suggestion from any player that posited the idea that this would somehow be a useful feature? No? Hmmm. I wonder why that is. Maybe it's because we don't want to throw gear away. We SELL that which is useless. SELL. SELL. SELL! Let that sink in. We SELL useless gear. We don't equip it. We sell it. That which we equip is useful. We upgrade it. When better comes along we remove and replace it. That which is removed can be equipped on a different champ or sold. But to DESTROY it should never be an option. NEVER. The accidental destruction of gear should never be possible. NEVER! That needs to be removed immediately. I don't care if you have double or triple checks. Outright destruction of equipped gear should NEVER have been implemented. NEVER!
Double Dwarf Time. So far it looks more like double or nothing. Nothing here so far. 1 on the alt. 30 some shards. No dwarf. How is that double?
Yes, there are several gripes here. Well deserved gripes. Why? Well, at times it seems like you want everyone to rage quit. You guys ALWAYS over nerf. Why not try small adjustments first? Like with Steel Bowyer. Her Big Game skill could have been dropped to 2 attacks. But no, you made it one attack AND increased the cd. A double nerf. Oh, the multiplier was increased too. Really? How can we tell? A .0000000000001 increase, while technically an increase, isn't REALLY an increase. Mine is just level 40. She'll stay there. I see no reason to bother with her. Eventually her gear will get reused. Not destroyed, re-used. Maybe sold, but NOT destroyed.
Yes, you added new events. While I look forward to them as a variation in the monotony, they really are just the same thing. And they should have been added a long time ago. The Dungeon Diver event and all of the new and old dungeon boss events should give points for any and all loot gained. Silver, brews, champions, potions, artifacts and accessories are all loot and should all count in these events. And the rewards should match the effort required. 1 tome as a max reward is insulting. Q O L!
Plarium, you folks really need to read the player suggestions, make a list of them all, insert several in-game polls to get a good idea of what we, the players, would like to see implemented and then implement them. If you have features you want to include, let us decide on a few of them. I suspect that item destruction would have been voted off the island.
We like the game. We enjoy the game. We care about the game. So quit messing up the game.
