So I have a question. I am pretty sure mods will be nerfed within in the next 12 hrs but what about players like myself and others who have spent 1000's of crystals on cantina refreshes credits to try to get ahead. What happens to us ? How will you fix this ?
@CG_NotReallyAJedi
Before I get trolled by F2P's please understand that it is players like myself who seriously spend on this game are the ones who pay for the salaries of developers. The "suck it and see" approach works fine if the game is completely free but chopping and changing mid-stream in a panic is has caused a loss of confidence from your top spenders. It is a matter of course when we see others stop spending we also stop as a group. Every whale that is burned won't return, why should they ? They can get their fix somewhere else spending on another app. Will this game end ? of course it will. Every game I have played ends but I would have expected at least a couple of years before this spiraled into oblivion.
IMHO as everyone is entitled.

Lets see what happens in 12 hrs. If I get 350 crystals I will not be impressed as I spent 100 x this.
I'm a moderate spender, and used about 6000 Crystals getting/upgrading mods. If there is a change I don't think I would spend anymore on this game.
200k hp tank dies just as quick now as a 50k hp tank did before
This all just makes a lot more toons useable...
And pls dont start with "4* g7 modded toon kills 7* g10 unmodded toon"... thats like bringing a knife to a gunfight... the unmodded toon being the knife
They are out now for a day... let stuff settle!
But apart from that, mods in general is a great idea, just sad the implementation is weird!
call it "horrible"
I would call it extreme.. if it wasnt as overpowered with the rest of the improvements that came with it would have been one of the best updated we've seen
One does need a mod up team for clearing GW and maintains arena rank now but it is not anyone else fault if one decides not to mode up or decide to take it slow to mod up.
Care to explain why? If you just grant 10% increase, then we can go back to pre-mods game... no point having them... 10% doesnt do poop...
You wanting to keep seeing the same teams over and over as you did the last few months?
Whats the point?
Extreme stat increase means that each and every toon is viable!
You get endless possibilites handed to you, and you dont want it!
Thats like being offered a great job that lets u travel around the world and not taking it because you want to keep sitting in your cubicle...
And, as i said above, a modded 7*/g10 wipes the floor with a modded 4*/g7, as it should be...
A. make the mods harder to get through RNG, and
B. Undoubtedly reduce their effectiveness.
To what end, I wonder? Daily "Grrr Rey and RG" threads being made still. "Waaah RNG (now including mods!) There will be meta mods everyone wants and whales will predominately have them first and more of them because they spend for them. So what exactly has this **** got anyone? What's been gained?
Nothing.
No, the only variation you'll see is the current meta with slight different mods but maxed out. A maxed Rey meta still beats a maxed nightsister squad e.g.
Increasing stats and make them multiplicative only empowers the current meta. It's a moneysink and nothing more. Variation is an illusion.
I'm not sure that RayRay is right that people would have spent the same amount for a 10% increase in power, but yes, they would have spent copious amounts because not seizing an advantage means you're falling behind.
Regarding your assertion that a modded 7* g10 wipes with floor with a modded 4* g7, I'm not sure that's always the case. With the right mods on a 4* g7 Rey, I'd bet on her against (for example) a 7* g10 Mob Enforcer. Everytime.
This is 100% correct. In fact, mods actually limit variation because most players (whales not included) will have very limited options in terms of mods and who to apply their high-powered and fully leveled up mods to. Many people in my guild are already crystal and credit poor from modding up the past 24 hours - and most have only modded their arena teams - and then some still can't finish GW now.
Make no mistake though - this is by design. EA wants everyone to feel like they are "falling behind" and need "just one more mod".
In game guild: TNR Uprising
I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help
*This space left intentionally blank*
But, no, no variation at all.
They won't roll back took them 2 weeks to fix the Raid issue this could be in the unfixable bucket.
ie they need to track refund every purchase of crystal/Energy/credits. What if I only bought crystal for Mods ? I don't want the crystal now if there are no mods?
There will be a legal precedent as is this allegedly fraudulent?. It would be easier to nerf.
They will do what is easier not what is right.
Well all you can really do now is enjoy your purchases until they do something about it. They can keep mods as it is or nerf it. Both options wont stop the game from bleeding to death. A rollback would.
you don't support the game, you support the business model
