Regarding the Glory store.

Zuro

I was just wondering why the glory store is the only store that increases in value with each purpose. At first the concept was interesting considering how valuable the items were, but now it just seems more like a hassle if anything. Plus the lack of an update further reinforces this imo. Do you guys agree? If not, why?

I think it's a way to give a better deal than usual for players who put more thought and patience into their resource management. The first purchase of each item should be cheaper than buying the same amount in any other store, but buying more before the reset should be more expensive. That way, players are getting a great deal as long as they think ahead and don't waste their resources on more sudden rankups.

But without a Glory store update, this doesn't really work.

I find it annoying and pointless when the store nolonger provides anything rare or valuable that isn't elsewhere. When the Glory store was the sole source of the most coveted resource items it worked in a sense, further driving up market prices on those valuable items. With the BGs store around which doesn't escalate cost with each purchase it is now more annoying than innovative.

Very well said. 3900 for 15% t6b and t3a right now thanks to a ludicrous 150 increase for each purchase.

It'llbe fine if/when they ever do a properparagon glorystore update. Right now all I'm getting is a couple r4 mats 500 glory each each time it refreshes and 5x gold/iso every week

I know they say they’re talking about compensation for war issues but look at all the subtle ways they’re throttling our ability to progress:

Refuse to update the glory store
Refuse to update the loyalty store
Double the BG off-season from one week to two
Delay war even more as the placement phase remains broken
Limit releases of permanent or temporary content besides the standard monthly SQ.

Even the added BG milestones that were supposed to compensate us for a lost war season had the unintended consequence of setting a new threshold for elder mark usage and skewing the cutoffs for solo and alliance events.

The only roster progression I get is from BG trophies that I’ve saved up and spend every Monday.

Let’s say for the sake of argument that you got 120,000 trophies in a BG season. I have no idea if that’s an appropriate number when you add up 1200 every 48hrs from the 2-day milestones, Alliance milestones, advancement rewards, gladiator circuit, and alliance season rewards.

I picked it because it’s divisible by 5 and 6. Instead of 24,000 trophies per week, you now get 20,000 per week. Basically, you miss out on 30% of a t6b and 30% of a t3a if that’s what you’re buying

The stores and rewards are lagging big time with respect to the current climate of the game, with the exception of battle grounds which I feel are currently right at this stage of the games life.
Our alliance made alliance quest not compulsory because of the below par rewards, and we now run boss rush to get a few rewards.
Unfortunately war store has not been given much thought, people here will know the exact time this was updated but I am placing it around 24 months since the update.
We now have 7 star champs and high ranked 6 star champs are more common. We need further access in those stores to purchase iso, cheaper and more rank up materials with possibly the inclusion of relic stuff.
The game is changing so fast stores need to be upgraded 2 to 3 times a year imo

Why would we need all of that when I can buy 9 years of progression in 1 day?
I can wait till cyber weekend and buy 8+8, 16 years of progression.
