One thing Kabam Miike said was:
“We're making this change instead of bringing back the Gold Boost because we want to encourage Players to stop hoarding their Crystals throughout the year waiting for these boosts, and open their Crystals whenever they need them.”
I think one thing that’s misunderstood is the value of waiting for something guaranteed. The reason players wait until the Gold Boost came was so that they can earn more gold than they would have normally if they had opened them. Granted, thanks for the 30% boost, but this doesn’t necessarily solve what the devs think is a “problem”, which is hoarding crystals.
Players need millions of gold (especially for 6* level ups) which means they will need to hoard hundreds of gold crystals to get that. I’m sure some will open the gold crystals as they come, but there will be plenty more of us who will wait until we have a substantial amount of gold crystals to pop. This same discussion applies to openings featured crystals. While some pop them as the shards come, others pop when they’ve accumulated a certain amount.
I would like to know why you guys are against hoarding?

Edit: regardless this is a great change overall
Damn I was joking
This is a decision that actually has no downside.
If you want to hold onto your crystals until one week in December you can still do that if you want to have a massive gold influx to rank up champions. Until then, this is the most bizarre complaint I’ve seen in a good while. You’d give a good satirist a run for their money.
I wish I could convert them to UC Gold Crystals.
The no gold boost does effect me on other ways though. I push harder than normal in arena during the boost of gold and bc, and I generally save content for it ie leave a lone path in a variant as that gold boost on a 1.5 million gold payout is great.
Not sure how many crystals it will take to even out the loss on the other stuff.
I think, I'm happier with always gold boost but unmeasureable losses, as I can't predict how much more I will push than normal or how much content I can save because of wanting t5b right then and there, will come into play.
I’m in between on this, good change but eventually it’ll be the “norm” and won’t be very good. Plus the low end amounts are still very low. 🤷♂️
When you are guys going to address the state of ISO in the game? Is that on your radar to look into?With the resources it takes to rank up 6* champs these days, yet whenever we dupe a 5* or 6* champ, we earn the same resources we do when duping a 4* champ.! Feel like it’s about time to evolve the ISO in the game to reflect the champs we are levelling up don’t you think? Even what we gain from cavalier questing is pretty poor considering the 6*s meta these days!
Gold increased across the board from crystals and people complain like OP, or say it’s not enough and ask for more. Entitlement is a crazy thing.
It isn’t entitlement, idc if they give more. I’m not petitioning them for more. I’m saying after this long the small 2.4k amount from a Crystal should have been increased first.
He’s the worst
Because yeah, I’m so going to pop my gold crystals now and get 3,100 /s
