A change to new characters

I think it’s time to change how we get new characters. The game is 4+ years old. The packs need to drop x3 times the shards. I don’t see how new characters are driving any kind of revenue there just to expensive. You will make more on the back end in relics and gear purchasing etc. just my 2c

  • If their data supported it, they would do it. The fact that they don't is telling.

    Shards are still the same, it's the gearing that needs a major overhaul. G1 - 11 or even 12 should be possible in a matter of days, now that relics are required pretty much everywhere.

    Why, People buy the packs as they are?
  • If you are farming you are not spending therefore they don't care what you/I think.
    Fyi I have done several pieces of gear where I farmed the gear on a node spending 150 crystals a day 50x3. Not counting free energy which I used to farm other stuff. I almost always got it cheaper than spending 700-875 crystals for 25 pieces in the store. Drop rates are 10%-20% (yes even on stun guns). The stores are there if you want/need it quick. Farming nodes are there if you want it effecent.
    This is gear but the same is true for character shards when looking at Crystal spends vs farm and refreshes. OVER TIME!! That is.

    Why not a full roster of r7 toons while we’re at it!
    Maybe End Game isn't for you

    If it wasn't cheaper to farm than to buy, no one would spend crystals on refreshes, they'd just buy them since it's quicker. Time = money.

    You don't get the point. What use is g11 in the current state of the game? Nowhere near arena, TB, new legendaries, presumably the new raid too. Might as well make it almost free. The real crunch comes with relics now.
  • Hmm let’s see what’s more valid.

    Professional business analysts reviewing data and trends based on the games revenue setup

    Or

    Some dude online.

    Yeah CG should definitely change their business strategy...

    G11 works just fine for many toons in DS Geo TB and GAC.

    I thought G11 was possible in a matter of days... odd. When I decide to gear someone it usually takes 2-3 days of focused effort to G11 that person. Only slowdown to that now is kyros. Carbanti and stun guns is quick if you have guild and shard currency saved.

    Carbs, yes.

    Guns, only if you get very lucky with the shard shop.
