Also:
- Lower the cost and training time of HA7 (trainer hero training) and increase the odds of higher-rarity trainer heroes, until it’s worth using at some point, likely for training level 60+ heroes
- Lower the cost and time for all troop training options (except HA9) so it doesn’t take two decades to train troops to high levels.
Alternatively:
- Institute some sort of trade-in reward, similar to alkashards, that can be traded in for epic hero tokens, epic troop tokens, Atlantis coins, Valhalla coins, costume keys, tavern coins, or challenge coins.
