The Rarest Resource In The Game

No it's not what you're thinking. It's not tier 6 basics, it's not tier 3 alphas, no it's ISO-8. The current system in the game encourages people to spend money in order to dupe champions and get relatively small amounts of iso. What are the ftp players expected to do. Sure there will be dupes from four star crystals that give iso, but it's never enough. Let me know if y'all agree and what y'all suggest for a solution

I have ten million gold, had 30 t1 alphas before mass rank ups I just did....plenty of everything and have literally no iso

ThatGuyYouSaw235

It's not rare it just has a VERY short shelf life

20 mil gold and all I have is a Level 1 Iso Brick

SkyLord7000

Don’t understand why either. I’d WAY rather be stuck on the rank up page then the ISO page

How does 6* dupes give the same amount iso then 4* that doesn’t make much sense. At least increase the iso in 6* dupes. That’s not asking for a lot I think.

In before someone says you don’t spend enough time in certain areas of the game (cough arena) or that you don’t manage your resources well enough!

Blaise10

I have plenty of 4* shards for me personally I just don’t understand the logic of 4* dupes and 6* dupes being the same

I’ll be that guy.

I reached TB on two accounts in 2021 (January and May). I have 76,000 and 100,000 4-star shards in reserve. I don’t buy cav crystals. I barely do arena. I never use basic iso. I max out level up rewards every fourth day.

If you’re so impatient that you insist on taking a 5-star straight to rank 4 or 5, you will create iso droughts and catalyst shortages. You can do it across 11 days (4 level ups), use other expiring resources, and open dual class crystals for iso.

Duel Credits are the rarest resource

Duel Credits are the rarest resource

Klyntar Catalysts too.

Duel Credits are the rarest resource

Since 6 stars and rank 3s have become more available I've struggled with ISO. Have a long list of six star champs waiting to come up.

Good 6* are the rarest resource...

ISO is one of the few resources F2P players can literally grind an almost unlimited amount of. They might not want to spend all that time grinding it, but it’s hard to say that F2P players are at a disadvantage when it comes to ISO.

In terms of what F2P players can get in the game compared to spenders, spenders have cash (and time) and F2P players have time. Time in the arena can get you battlechips, units, and gold directly, and it can get a lot of ISO indirectly. It isn’t absolutely unlimited, but it is more than you could ever use.

An F2P player that doesn’t want to spend money and also doesn’t want to spend time will be at a disadvantage to players willing to spend one or the other or both. But now you aren’t talking about F2P players in general, you’re talking about players that don’t spend lots of time or money, low activity players basically. Those players will have shortages, not just in ISO but in lots of places. Which is to be expected. In fact, this is even desirable because if low activity players were not at a significant disadvantage, the players who spend lots of time or money or both would not be getting anything important for their time and money. That would discourage players from spending and playing. Not a good idea if you care about the long term viability of the game.

Iso is not the "rarest" thing in the game

Drake2078

Good Luck is the rarest resource in the game for me....especially when opening 6* crystals

Pick 2 of shards gold and iso. Without the perfect balance, one will always be the limiting factor. It most recently was gold. It used to be new worthwhile champions to spend those resources on. It is currently iso. It goes in cycles.

How many units do you expect to get from arena per month? Let's say 3k? It's 15 cav crystals. Half of them is expected to be 3* champs, half 4+. So let it be 8 4* dupes. I'm not sure if it's enough to r3 6* champ. Anyway, it is definitely limited

3k a month is really low considering there's over 1k a week just from arena milestones and not opening BCs, or counting in units gained from hero use and arena solo events, or the units from 3 day alliance events. Hell when I was really arena grinding, opening BCs and all the solo events I would clear over 2k units a week consistently.

Another rarer resource than ISO- stamina refills for arena

How much time a week do you do arena to hit all those milestones?

I HATE arena with a passion. It is no fun. It is boring. It is repetitive. It makes me not want to play the game, even though I love other aspects of it.

Yes, you can GRIND away for countless hours and be set for gold and iso, but real life is so much better and the amount of grinding needed to not be in a resource drought is insane. Ask someone who doesn't play this game and see what their reaction is.

Honestly, how many hours a week are you grinding arena for those units? Are we talking Brian Grant still lives at home level grinding? Cause if so, let's be honest, that's not a game... That's an addiction.

I don't spend any of my units on crystals anymore (not directly anyway), and I still keep getting piles of ISO. It isn't the units, it is the piles of crystals I keep opening constantly. Grandmaster crystals, 4* 5* and 6* crystals, and even PHCs. They add up. And when I say add up, I mean I have about one million PHC shards right now, and 1860 unopened PHC crystals I'm sitting on that I occasionally open for event points because I literally cannot use the ISO in there. My ISO stash says 1588 ISO bricks, and I just did two rank threes.

Let me put it this way: I sell about half my ISO for gold, because I can't use it all. I currently have 211 million gold. That's mostly from arena grinding, so when I say it is not literally an unlimited source of ISO but for all practical purposes it might as well be, that's what I mean by almost unlimited.

Except for the occasional "let's spin one of these for fun" the crystals I get from units come from buying the Cavalier completion bundle every week. 5k 6* shards, 15k 5* shards, and five Cav crystals. Everything else ISO related comes mainly from arena milestone and rank rewards. The units I save for completing content or the occasional big ticket offer.

Knew it was going to be ISO before I clicked. July 4 - People spend units or money for offers - Get awesome champs - No ISO to level up.
