Where did you learn they are removing the boosts (specifically)?
They made a post and clawed it back immediately
I think complete loyalty store will be taken out
Yes I believe that Loyalty will be phased out, but to say that currency (non unit) based aw boost acquisition is being removed is jumping to a conclusion? I would guess they will at least make them available for Radiance and/or Essentia (maybe basic vs premium) - though, what I would love to see is a change to the weekly alliance event to either include AW items in addition to AQ items or.. make it a selector to choose between the two based on which mode make more sense for you
So when it fades away, how are we gonna get raid tickets?
By spending our precious Essentia?
Loyalty won't be missed. If they got rid of boosts all the war clowns who max boost to 200k+ HP and then brag about deathless streaks will be mad, so I doubt they would actually remove them.
Probably, yes - which actually makes sense as it's a currency we receive from AQ style modes, it's essentially reinvesting a portion of what you earn back into the mode
Which is actually how players who play AW competitively use their Loyalty - actually reinvest it back into the game mode to win a better currency (Radiance), a lot of players (including myself) do not use Loyalty for Raid tickets.. it's mostly players who only play aw causally that have an abundance of Loyalty and use it for Tickets or UC or whatever
All this being said, one must ask.. are Raid tickets really necessary to begin with?
