Thread: At this point, I am no longer surprised

But having breaks from time to time is still a good ideea. once a month , or after 3-4 events in a row is not too much to ask.


That being said , both my accounts are 160+ atm , and both my core teams are maxed. Sure i've took advantage on the breaks to max other stuff (like betty in preparation for AW) , but my core team is ok. Excepting some male aff items , right now i even have extra resources. Probably far from your reserves , but enough to be able to do at least a couple events without a break. So no , not exactly a newbie (even tho , for someone over 200 , i must seem an amateur). The thing is , i personally don't even need the breaks as much now , but i agree that it would still benefit me if we had some FROM TIME TO TIME , to restock a bit. And because of that , and as a f2p i can see how breaks could benefit newer players. Obviously not as often as we have right now, and especially not after star events or gold rushes , but having a bit of downtime once ever 3-4 events is not THAT much to ask.

Meanwhile....you ? You're a hypocrite. You're claiming that you care about the game and whatnot , but i'm guessing that you're just a bored whale

Except it's clearly not a good idea as both myself and several other people have been telling you already.

The only justification for breaks is to get a team up to speed. Which was fine at launch (although far too long) when everyone was new and we didn't have autocomplete. Now, for new players, without breaks, they have no choice but to skip events they are clearly outclassed on, or they cash the fuck out to keep their team up to speed. Not drag everyone else down to their level and have complete periods of deadness like you keep proposing.

Star/collection events are the perfect "breaks" for newbies, because they're not expected to spend their entire time on them. If they DO want to take part in the events, they have to cash, plain and simple. I know people who were new by the time Karma's event came around that they decided to throw down cash to get Immortal Karma, because they knew how useful she'd be in the future.

But a break for the sake of "restocking" is not necessary for anyone or anything. If it's gold you need, you skip doing events on Monday. If it's affection/fairies/etc., you farm event maps that drop them, you take a break from the event to farm Tuesday/Friday/challenge maps, or you suck it up until a login day gives it to you.

Once again, stop trying to compulsively max out everything ASAP. Even as a whale, there are plenty of units I don't have maxed, and I don't have an infinite stockpile of affection items or fairies. Because I know that I don't need to dry up my resources or my wallet for every unit that comes along.

And yeah, call me out for me being a "bored whale" when you can't even come up with compelling reasons for breaks outside of being newbie-friendly.
