Why The Sigil Store Nerf?

Under the old sigil, you could purchase 20% boosts every week for gold. One of the best things for AW, Carrina's, Questing, etc.

Now, we get 60 sigil credits a month, and those cost 10 sigil credits each....You would spend more than a months worth of sigil credits every month just buying the boosts! This seems like a massive nerf and way over priced!

    Irrelevant to the question asked, I don't see it in the webstore even though when I first logged in, it said I can buy it, where is it

    Yeah, didn't see it there either. So bought it in game. Only for alliance mates to say it is there now. So guess I'm out 375 Units and more than double the sigil credits as well. -.-
    That's not accurate, you only missed out on the bonus for going through the webstore, so you get 300 units instead of 375, and 60 sigil credits instead of 75.

    Well that slightly lessens the pain. Still want my old boosts back!!!

    @KabamPinwheel what do you think?

    Am I missing something here?
    Kabam decided to make a monthly recurring payment subscription feature that is better to buy intermittently? Let me explain, the only way to squeeze the most juice out of this new Sigil is if you have gathered everything to trade in the Black ISO store and manage to get the items within their reset timers. For example if you are at 50k 6* shards that trade for 1 7* crystal at 150k shards is worthless unless you manage to get 100k more within the month. And that goes for every single item that has better value in trade.

    If you're thinking in terms of relative to the usual purchases, it's more value than the Star Lord Loot Bag for example.
    Now, in terms of the 6* Featured leaving, I'm not sure why that was removed, or the Shard trade-in. That would make more sense to keep and just gate the 7* Crystals if the concern was choices. That much I'm not sure of.
    I think the overall idea is to have some higher-end value that Players can save towards and some smaller value on an ongoing basis. Which this certainly achieves.
    It's only 10 dollars USD a month, after all.

    He loves robbing players
    Mate, get out of here. Pinwheel is a community manager, not a decision maker. Every time I see you on this forum, you’re just trying to stoke anger and problems.

    New Sigil has made a LOT of unforced errors and I likely won’t be renewing mine, but your attitude is so aggressively toxic it makes me want to spend money on the game out of spite.
    Well I want an explanation as to why the price was jacked up on those. It’s the least Kabam can do when robbing us at least tell us why
    Asking for an explanation about a price change is totally reasonable. That’s fine and I also want that information.

    Taking personal swings at employees of the company is not okay. Just because you don’t like what Kabam has done, does not mean you get to start insulting individuals. Especially not Pinwheel, who just seems to be a nice person who functions as a go-between for the players and Kabam.

    Also, I beg you to stop using words like “rob” and “scam” when you mean “bad value for the money.” Just because you think something is a bad deal does not mean it is criminal. You can literally always just not buy it.
    If he cares he would find an answer really quick instead of pretending not to see the question
