Arena Medals - Easy development fix
As I have looked through reddit and the forums it is apparent that I am not alone in noticing a massive change to Arena that has negatively impacted my experience. I have spent easily 1-2k on this game and will likely continue to spend once this issue is resolved.
Problem: Severely stronger match ups in well over 90% of cases. I spent a few hundred gems evaluating this and approximately 60% of teams at Silver4/Gold1 have Arbiter, about 20% Hegemon and close to 75% the blue death duo. These have historically been end game teams which I would expect to find in Gold4/Plat but now find in the lower ranks.
Personal Impact: Though I clearly have a gambling/compulsive issue that results in me pissing money away on this game for shards, I still don't have an S tier arena lead nor any S tier units for arena. I don't care that much for arena but I want to finish out Arbiter, which will now be next to impossible due to being knocked down into silver every day and I need 1,900 gold medals. (Farming stage 20 dungeons and UNM CB already)
Solution: Allow all medals to be used for all upgrade tiers (not stopping at 5 or w/e the cap is) and increase medals by 2x for bronze and silver. Gold would still be the highest value then for every 2 silver it counts as 1 gold and 4 bronze for 1 gold. This will allow weaker players to grind arena at the right level for them and still make progress.
Thank you for the consideration, my offer is that upon completion I will resume my pathetic addiction to shard pulling, to your benefit.
