An idea about the sigil

The upgrade of the black iso market is more interesting than before, for sure (it couldn’t be less...).
But, despite the recent changes, as a mostly f2p, there is not the little « plus » that makes the player say « The global package is good, let’s take the sigil this month », instead of « No hurry, let’s wait for next month ».
Several ways to address it :
- Add some special content for a month, with or without a difference due to the player’s progress
- Increase the interest for the market during a month by some events (e.g. « This month the 6* feature crystal cost is reduced to 10 or 11 k shards » or « trade 4 2% T5CC crystals against 4 2% T5CC selectors »)
- For a month, reduce the price (e.g. from 10 $/€ to 8)
By the way, I still don’t understand why a limit of 1 feature (6*) per 2 weeks. That’s already difficult to get the 6* shards, so a player able to buy a feature each week on several months is very unlikely. It is a frustrating point.

And as you say, you (as most of us) already struggle to get the shards on a biweekly basis anyway. It wouldn't really benefit anyone but the highest-tier players.
When it comes to special content, I'd rather not have any (even as a Sigil user). I think that content should, as much as possible, be available to everyone. However, one thing that I think could be cool, is for Sigil users to be privy to beta testing certain features. Let's say that Kabam was thinking of launching a Daily Gold Event, for example. Let Sigil users test it out first and see how it works before launching it properly.
I'm not talking about especially long beta tests - nothing like the slow beta-after-beta rollout of Battlegrounds, for example - but simply about giving Sigil users a preview of things to come. Nothing that upends the balance in any considerable way, but small things. Take the currently ongoing beta for their revamp of the energy refill system. Instead of only inviting lower-level players, invite Sigil users (too, maybe). Those kinds of things.
All of that said, I'm pretty satisfied with the Sigil as it currently stands.
