I bought the 5* gem package not too long ago - the one that had the 5* Enhancement Crystal. If you don't recall that crystal it either awarded a 5* awakening gem class specific - or 80 class specific sa stones.
I popped the gem and got 80 5* tech stones ~ cool
The things is, is I already had xxx amount of tech stones ~ and NO 5* awakened tech champs.
I would classify myself as an intermediate player and currently have 16 5* champs ~ with only one of them being awakened (Loki r3 sa 100)
I did recently pull Starky which is awesome and I'm stoked to have 99 stones to put in him when ~ some day ~ he does get awakened.
However in the mean time I've got tech sa stones going into overflow because the stockpile limist for them is 99. That's total bogus ~ I can't even sell my overflow stones 😑 .. what's up w. that??
Considering that the sa limit for a 5* character is 200 - having the stockpile limit for 5* sa gems being 99 (the same as 4* gems) is a crock. Especially in light that it is MUCH harder and SLOWER to awaken 5* champs, the ability to stockpile 5* stones should = the sa level of a 5* champ ~ i.e. 200.
The 5* Enhancement Gem was an awesome add to the game .. but would I purchase it again on the chance of getting an awakening gem out of it? iono honestly .. because if I were to open it and get class based sig gems well ~ it would automatically push a portion of them instead into overflow - where I wouldn't even be able to sell them for some trash amount of gold .. and God forbid should I get another stack of tech ones 🤦♂️. I could buy it and stockpile the gem itself - to one day be opened when I have at least one awakend 5* champ of each class - so if I did get class stones .. I could use them instead of losing them ~ but that could be a long wait .. and the idea in my mind getting that gem would be for the chance at an awakening gem.
I hope Kabam takes note that this needs to be updated in the game. The amount of 5* & 6* gems that you can hold (w.o. losing them to stockpile overflow & expiration) should equal the potential sa level of a champion at that level.
