Patch Notes 09/03/2022

[Yeeha]

i must have missde something. sov chest used to cost 79royals, royals got converted in 1:18 ratio to war crests, + announced 15% cost increase it should end up as 1635 war crests.

how did we end up with 1950 war crests for the chest? thats like 37% increase instead of 15%

Ok these price increases are absolutely redicilous lol. If you want a 2h scenario weapon that was previously 800 dominator + 1200 oppressor emblems, translating to 1360 war crests. Now its is 3000 war crests. The increases on pots are even more insane. A 1500 health pot is was one officer medal, translating to 1/25 war crest. Now they cost 4 war crest. Do you really think a price incease of 100x is justified???

OOofff.... the fixed city time is going to play merry heck with Western NA time zones and people in the Pacific.
Even Eastern NA if you have a job where you can not log into a game

As has been stated many times. The 1:18 conversion was from an leaked old draft and not accurate.

It is just two completely different systems and the drop rates and gain rates are different. So can't compare stuff directly like that.

In the old system 1 invader == 15625 recruit medallions, and in new system there's no such vast differences.

Holy moly, what a great patch.
I mean regarding the currency conversion there is certainly some controversy. I personally lost a lot I feel but we'll see how it plays out over the long run.

But all the changes regarding city only every 3 days, weekly rvr warfront, adjusted BO capture in scenarios and all the guild coin additions are so great! And encourage so much more guild gameplay.

Great stuff. Thank you very much for all your work developers!

Great QoL changes, apart that the cost increase is way way more than just 15%... however you spin it.

Well there are two aspects: 1) how our currency was transfered to war crests and 2) new gain rates of war crest currency. For the first aspect, how my currency was upgraded, I can definitely say that the pots are now 100x times more expensive. There is also another way to look at the price of pots, which would be in relation to the price of gear. And if you do that you will again see the absolutely redicilous price increase.

[mogt]

there is no ridicouls increase, what is the problem, now it is all fine, now you can decide what you want to get the crests. the price are normal and not the big problem now

[diedrake]

Unifying currency= increased grind for gear
Many bags for gen/ keep wps= increased grind
Cities schedualed= no need to push hard anymore as cities are now schedualed
Ranked sc gear= no longer gated anyone can have it eventually

Will still play the game but not too happy with the change so far. Game looks like it became easier as nothing is locked behind any mode, but increased the time to grind for gear like every patch related to aquiring rewards and such. All well
