Hydra Changes: What is our compensation???

Frankly, these Hydra changes are not only overtuned, but they have taken FAR too long to be implemented. Many players have built their entire accounts (slight exaggeration) around fighting Hydra as it currently is. That is an endeavor that takes an extreme amount of time and effort, and often money as well. As for most players, their Hydra damage will take a huge reduction and are completely unprepared for the sudden changes.

To be clear, there is nothing wrong with making changes to Hydra. The problem is it was handled in a way that completely destroys a lot of players and causes significant trouble for most.

So what should our compensation be? Feel free to give your thoughts below.

In my opinion, the compensation should be 100k energy, 50 sacreds, and 500 voids.

You're not losing any past rewards... also patches change gameplay all the time in most online games.

You'll get probably a free week of Gear Removal and that will be all. I won't even get super detailed into the financial loss Plarium would take by your "compensation" model being so ridiculous, people who maybe spend a few $100 per year wouldn't spend at all and the people who spend $1000 per month wouldn't spend for awhile. Here's the low-end value of what your 'compensation' is

Right sorry that's what I was saying, I should have wrote it better. I meant there would be nothing more than the gear removal. Like when they did that Blessings Revamp (both times) and gave everyone 1 free switch.

Will the adjustment be in effect by then?

yeah, i think they said it'd go live on the 16th

Presumeably in the tiny downtime between clash ending and the new one starting... but maybe i'm giving them too much credit

Yeah I wish I could share the Discord post... would be nice if it was posted on the forum as pinned or something:

We might need to readjust some gear on our Champions after the rebalance goes live on October 16. Will there be anything to help us with it? - Yes, we decided to reschedule this month's Free gear removal event to October 16-20 so that you will have an easier time tweaking your Hydra teams, if necessary.

Yep. I couldn't be bothered screenshot, save it, and then browse files to post it here.

Annoying how restrictive the add image feature for the forums is, but otoh we don't have bots posting images, so maybe worth it.

I decided to risk the spam bot nailing me and made the post myself. Maybe it will get pinned if I'm lucky

well that's exagerated true, but introduce a reset token to reset a champion giving back resources used to build it could be a start

They should compensate with silver and some leggo books. Free regear is not compensation when we have to build new champs and level artifacts for them.

Just to put this into perspective. Almost half a year resources and progress gone from fusion Wixwell and Shyak, both are useless now. Not to mention the lego books, the souls i have gone for or chased. I now have 7 champions in the vault due to this nerf and the only thing they are doing is a free gear removal? I dont have the silver to regear 3 new hydra teams.
