ONLY FOR COINERS

The most disturbing thing is the increased gap between big coiners and the rest. 33% to unit strength vs 112.5% that is quite a huge gap. Problem with this gap between players, is not just this one thing, but all the things that keep add on top of each other. 

The new tournament has just started on Facebook

Champion XP Tournament

As predicted, only a microscopic number of Emeralds available, and only BASIC Summoning Bonds used to summon Low-Grade Champions (only 6 milestones so rewards are capped)

The top three coiners will get ONE Holy Summoning Bond from the Tournament Ranking (only ONE tier) used to summon the highest grade Champions

Tournament Points can only be earned by hitting Undead and we can only hit 10 every 5 hours - https://prnt.sc/i3zitl

Unless we spend lots of Emeralds recharging the Energy Bar - https://prnt.sc/i40hqy

Low Grade Champions will only earn tiny amounts of XP, so will be useless in all tournaments

Lord Snowgoon, 

From fights with Undeads, you can receive Bonds of ANY rarity, including Epic and Holy.

The chance you will receive them is lower than in case with Basic Bonds, but it's still possible.

Many thanks for your comment, which I can now confirm

But the wording in all documentation and youtube videos implied the opposite ... maybe it could be made more clear

After hitting many, many Undead I did receive a FREE Epic Summoning Bond, and hope to receive a Holy Bond eventually

but this does not guarantee a high-grade Champion. In fact the odds are stacked against the highest available grades being given, but this is the same for everyone so could be described as 'fair'

Alina, The forum participants have yet again laid forth the the foundation of yet another failed attempt that the developers want to bring into the game. That while, 'might' bring in some new players to check a 'new feature or update', ultimately does nothing to repair the crumbling player base that has been established.

While yes it is addressed to you (as the official Plarium figure head here), perhaps we could have a 'special guest admin/developer/designer' to address such 'gameplay features",,, BEFORE implementation. This is based on multiple reasons.

1. you do not have the experience we do with such actions and consequences. (IE: test server)

2. Developers/designers, do not see the "gameplay effect", only the analytics or numbers based on those changes. Numbers at the bottom of a spreadsheet do not tell the whole story.

3. There seem to be, atleast to many here, more important issues within the game to be dealt with instead of bring more unwanted content. That has been proven flawed to me, by this thread.

4. The basis of game "balance", should never be uttered forth from any Plarium rep (wether CM, mod, admin etc...). The majority of all improvements within the last 2 years have been solely based on paying customers. Which is not entirely bad in principle, but the game effect is quickly approaching unbearable. Why will paying customers continue to pay when there is no one left to play against?

5. Maybe the new owners need to be contacted to address issues,... And Plariums leveling of positions without feedback, is seemingly in place to keep each deptment/level isolated from eachother within the company and out of touch with the playing public which it claims to benefit....

Hello.

In the future, we plan to launch beta testing of some new big features among our players as well (though, I don't have any exact timeframes when it can be done).

For example, very soon we will launch beta testing of the new game engine among our Sparta players and it shows that we are moving in the direction of the beta testing :)

Coiners, however, can still buy many bonds to increase the odds, and get Instant Gratification

Happy to hear you received Epic Summoning Bond :) 

The chance to receive the Champion with the higher Grade is still bigger than with the Basic Bond :)

As for the guide, it's what we have said there   https://www.screencast.com/t/QmsKyqlT

It doesn't say you can't receive Epic or Holy Bond from the fights with Undeads :)

The guide on facebook and the youtube video give much less information than on Rise of Balur

There is MUCH that it doesn't say, but is explained in more detail on Rise of Balur

I still think you should make things MUCH clearer - and try editing out the background chat and coughing in the videos
The accent is terrible and he speaks too quickly
Better to mute all sound and switch on the subtitles - works for other languages too
