RE: Conclave Arcana Conflicts - Why has the team dropped the ball on them...

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I completely agree that the 5x multiplier of CP for the BF cards was too much, which has resulted in too much of the proportional CA conflict points going to BF holders. But once that bed was made, we all had to sleep in it.

There are some benefits to all the value flowing to BFs: RF and BF cards sold for lower prices than comparable sets. It was easier for people to complete their RF sets. More pack sales value went to the SPSDAO.

But the big negative is the skew of airdrop value to the BF holders. There's no good way of fixing that now and I don't see how CP values can be reset after BF were already given the 5x multiplier.

As for the argument about having more airdrops than wagons... this is compelling because I fall in that category. I even have dozens of 5K and 2.5K CP cards that I don't put on wagons because it would cost me 5 additional repairs for 1 additional airdrop. Not worth it unless the airdrop is a $30+ card and those repair fees would stick with me for ALL the airdrops, I could never turn them off.

I'm not sure what the fix is here, but I'm fine with leaving cards unstaked because it would force me to buy more wagons than I already have. 39 drops for 33 wagons. That is how I budgeted my CA purchases, targeting 4.34 M conflict points per hour, and I'm right at that threshold.

I understand the complaints: "I've already spent so much, I don't want to spend more." "I want to compete at the highest level, I need all the cards at max level." This is always a struggle. There are always more cards to buy to complete a set. Even with my 39 airdrops, I still don't have a fully maxed set of CA. My priority was the high CP BFs and GFLs, rather than maxing out all of my cards.

We all pick our battles, and I settled on banking those airdrops because they are excellent rentals, and I love collecting premium cards. In the end, I will still end up being a net buyer of airdrops because I will still need a 4th GFL to max it out.

Thanks for your comment, Duce! Yeah, of course, you've got it all figured out and that's definitely commendable. As I've said, there's nothing wrong with what you're doing, you're playing by the rules. I have an issue with the way the rules have been set in this particular case. As I mentioned, I'm also not playing with a complete set due to the fact that I saw this CP inflation coming and I did want to get at least a decent amount of airdrops. 8 is not perfect but still a decent amount and who knows... I might get lucky.. :D
