Re: This fix is a start, but not enough

"The design of the Trade-In system is intended for there to be a steady drip of Essentia over time, to support the shift to Essentia, so that Summoners with a large stack of outdated resources don't get a major surplus of resources on day 1 compared to those who don't." That are our own earned resources. We get no advantage because the other did not earn a large stack or already spend it. So what is the point. And the expiration date for the trade in did not allow us to switch all resources to essentia until it expire. You rob us what we earned. Bring the stores back for a month that is the minimum.

So we should get on our knees and praise and give thanks to Kabam for simply responding?
We have higher expectations than just that. You should too.

Sigil Credits turn went from 9 per week to 3. Sigh.

With the old system we used to have the ability to turn in each of 3 different currencies (BG, Glory, Loyalty) 3 times each for 9 total turnins for 3 credits each. Now we only get 3 turnins of Essentia for 3 credits each?

Unless I missed it (and the old turnins were only 1 credit each?) seems we just went from 27 weekly to 9?

Re: Essentia Conversion is horrible

Absolutely. You can't make the exchange limit this egreggious and not let us know so we could spend our currency in advance

Essentia Story Problems

The biggest most obvious problem, the conversion rates. These rates are abysmal to say the least. The prices on items seem fair but the conversion rates are absolute dogshit. To me the only things worth buying are T6CC, the T4A, 7* Sigs, and Relic mats.
Next, the cap on the conversion rates is such a stupid and disgusting thing to do. I like many people I know, saved and didnt claim a lot of glory hoping to trade them in for a good amount of essentia for better purchases, but not only are the rates horrible, theres a limit to how much you can exchange, half the items are priced awfully.

Another problem is getting rid of all the other stores right on launch of the essentia store. Like they plan to do with the mysterium store, the launch of essentia should have also been a gradual change and shift to this new currency.

The last few problems, is the lack of items to purchase, and the HORRID pricing of raid tickets. Like half the essentia players can get at the moment will be used just for raid tickets, which is made worse by the fact that raids start today.

Honestly this is overall just a good concept, with horrible execution. I do not mind Kabam spacing out content and updates like the new Carina's coming out weekly and not at once to gain retention for the game, but adding the caps to already such horrible rates is not a good first look.
