Agreed. We will get used to the aw value changes in time, and debate over better/worse stuff... but the upgrade cost change was horrible. Plain and simple. The took already limited and stretched crafting resources and expanded the need for frag with the cauldron. Now they are expanding the need again with the aw bs. With no way to obtain any more resources. Its horrible planning and/or execution. - It also screws over new and younger cities massively.Very soon we will all have EVERY SINGLE AW ready to upgrade, with no possibility of actually doing so.
Inno is out of their freaking minds!!
I need 30,000 SF for each level of the AW's I have ready to upgrade right now.
What does Inno expect us to do?
The game is screwed. May as well leave now.
We have already lost Fellowship members.
I am in the same position. I have 9 aw placed. 8 are now ready for upgrade with the new system. That cost will be astronomical. Its bs even if it was jsut one or two aw's because the resources shouldnt have been changed like this. But to change them in bulk makes the bs cost astronomical.
It would cost me 221,000 frags, 221 catalysts, 230 royals restorations to upgrade 8 of the 9 aw's. Thats about 75% of my full inventory of frags and catalysts. And that with doing the full spire every week and the magic acadamey doing catalysts 24/7 for the last year or two.
75% of my inventory... for 8 single level upgrades. That would leave me with maybe 2-3 upgrades worth left before i was 100% empty on resources. Then no aw upgrades, no crafting, no boost to cauldron (granted, i already cant afford to do that and skip it)...
And i have a natural inclination to stock pile resources, plus i am lucky enough to be apart of a 10 chest fs and do full spire every week. Even with all that going for me... id still be screwed quickly.
In fact... since i am apart of a 10chest fs, iv accumulated a lot of aw kp instants. While i could deplete my cc and frag resources around 75% with those 8 upgrades, today, ... With the use of those kp instants, I could very easily use up 100% of the resources that iv been building up for years... in a single day because of this change. I would like to repeat that because it sounds mildly important... I could use 100% of resources stockpile for years... in a single day, on aw upgrade alone. Which then leave me with no upgrades, no crafting, limited cauldron. SO this change literately makes it harder to impossible to play the actual game/utilize game features. If thats not the definition of FAILURE, then i dont know what is.. .
