Last I checked you were still top of the damage lists in Extra Spicy without Jackal / Falcon / Panther / Arthur?
You’re talking a top 3 alliance if not higher than that when it comes to titan slaying, and if you’re in the top 5 on a regular basis and I know, without a doubt, that many of the Nuts have the aforementioned heroes, where is the problem with Arthur?
He is better on titans than Panther no doubt, that attack debuff frees up a slot which is pure goodness… but how many people are using items these days anyway out of either of our two alliances?
Guin, I don’t know. She’s going to be hard but beta is an odd duck and I’m going to wait to see how she performs in the wild. Zero still beat me every single time with my defense (not optimized as I put in most of the new heroes and admittedly my defensive heroes are not the best) so it’s not like Guin is going to turn me into this unstoppable force. Guin on Zero’s defense team if he wins Intermediate, well… apparently I need to L2P.
The rest, and just playing devil’s advocate here, but why would people spend as much event money if the equivalent heroes were available via TC?
I still think the game isn’t that P2W because you have to get these heroes to 80 for them to be worth a darn for the end game, and you have to spend probably hundreds if not thousands of dollars on ascension packs to even get 6 4* ascension items… and those are the only ones that really matter. They are also time limited, a set of 5 each month for a given color, $30 per month if you need say Nature (in my case, damned shields) and you might still get only 1 shield on average per month and 0.33 tonics per month. $360 and I’d have 4 more tonics on average than you, hardly unbalancing.
Also I’d note there are plenty of people who did 1 x 10 and rolled some of the new heroes, happened on my alt, happened to others I’m sure too. That’s basically been the game since it’s started, and with investors SG needs to make money just like every other gaming company out there.
I don’t know what the distribution is but I suspect the events have been huge money makers for SG, and what is the incentive to spend or even continue playing if the content and heroes become stale?
I really can’t fault it, and expecting the game to give anyone equivalent setups when not supporting the developers at all (I’m sorry the MV can’t be giving crap for revenue those ads are barely targeted, which means they don’t earn much money) well, am sorry but you are getting the content for free and you’ve spent how many hours playing?
I’d say SG has done you absolutely right bud
