First and foremost I am not making demands or saying this is even a great idea. This is just theory crafting, or a thought experiment. It was placed in general instead of the ideas and suggestions forum for this reason.
The fact of the heart of the question is players want to progress. When there is little for them to do at an “end game” situation people get bored. A new tier of hero would give them something to do.
Balance! Everyone has an opinion of xxx is to strong look at the top 100 it’s all xxx hero etc. By adding a 6* set of heroes you can wipe the game clean. Yes 5* will be viewed as weaker but everyone starts off with 4* then works up to 5* then if it was possible 6*.
Where else can we go? Hotm’s will continue to get stronger and stronger the gap now between tc 20 heroes and newly added heroes are starting to be in a league of thier own.
Oh please, no. There are other directions we can go like mini-titans, specialty quests with goals or requirements, or small temporary maps that only last for a day. Content options abound.
Well yes, like we have 4* and 5* now, the proposed concept would be adding a 6 down the road. The difference should be similar to that one a 4 vs a 5* hero. Yes a 4* can beat a 5* in some situations but you have a whole new tier of heroes then that you could ascend.
We can BARELY get ascension materials NOW for 5’s…what do you think a 6 would look like? I venture to not even think about the cost or the time for that…JMHO.
The Devs actions ( edit ) have already said no to 6* heroes.
Instead they are working on a system to buff the stats and abilities of your 1*- 5* heroes.
Rumor has it the first step will boost stats like using a permanent troop and also add a passive skill like “every time this hero takes damage, all allies get pie” ( but probably more combat oriented).
So chasing good 3*/ 4* /5* heroes is good idea. Which means 3* Vlad will not be replaced.
God I hope not. Ain’t nobody has time for ascending 6* heroes, there’s more than enough hassle ascending a 5*. What we need is more different regular 5* heroes that anyone can get from TC, not this.
I kinda like the idea of a troop with hero like leveling ascending. This would solve most if not all of the concerns about “where to go next” and raising the bar for advancement.
Quite surprised at the consensus on this one. Again I said in the very beginning I was not asking for this, just a little theory crafting or “what if” type of thing.
I think it would be a good idea if they added other possibilities besides the monster/raid/titan “Wanted” chests, with the VERY occasional elemental chest tossed in. Or possibly buffed rewards of other levels so 99.99999% of the player base doesn’t just blindly farm 8-7 for the rest of eternity.
Oh wait - so they do planning to upgrade all heroes with additional states at certain point of time? (Like champion them) That’s great news to hear abt it!!
