    Instead of having to do an event weekly to get them, the Sigil just hands them to you up front in the bundle you get when you subscribe or renew, along with the units.

    You pay for the Sigil and get with each renewal.

    Then wait a month basically.

    No need to do quests weekly for them is the new way.

    So your saying there will be no way to ever earn more sigil credits other than just buying the subscription each month. I thought that was like signing bonuses for getting the subscription then u still can earn sigils credits through out the month. What's the point of even havig. The sigil now then? The only benefit is the express arena. The black market and sign market sucks. And the extra storage is just a rip off it should be free .. I mean yeah the carbonadium core for 40 credits is pretty cold but only being able to spend the credits on 1 item then having. To wait a whole month to buy so the same item is ridiculous.

    I don't understand your complaint. You didn't have any way to get more sigil credits other than subscribing month after month with the previous Sigil either. There was just more steps involved. The only difference between the current system and the previous system is you're getting the Sigil credits sooner.

    Instead of your parents handing you an allowance once per week they are just handing you all of it at the start of the month, and you're complaining you aren't getting anything in the other three weeks. Are you saying you actually *want* Kabam to withhold some of the credits from you, and only hand them to you *after* you complete a bunch of tasks? This would make the Sigil better for you?

    Did you even claim the weekly "Gift" that is similar to doing the solo event every week?

    I have a similar complaint and I don’t understand it either. Side by side comparison would say the new sigil is superior to the old one on just about any measure (unless you’re stuck on one of the specific items that was removed from black market or something). Yet, despite the rational comparison, the new sigil experience feels crappy. I suspect I’m reacting to the huge volume of stores / offers / metas / sagas, etc.
    There have been other discussions surrounding the subjective experience of the Sigil: I have some sympathy on that regard, and I've stated as much. However, this does not appear to be a subjective complaint. This appears to be a complaint about the unavailability of Sigil credits, implying we had a way to grind for them with the old Sigil, when that's not true at all. We never had an opportunity to get "more" because that opportunity was an opportunity to get "at all."

    It is definitely valid for the new sigil to not feel great when the emphasis is everything in bulk. You get the sigil credits in a monthly bulk, you get the weekly rewards in bulk, heck you even buy things in bulk. There's no option to get 2k titan shards, if you want to spend sigil credits on titan shards, you're getting the whole crystal whether or not you like it. I think the store at least can be improved upon by removing the bulk purchases and breaking them down.

    The one thing I will say is I prefer getting the credits up front because if I miss the weekly bundle, then I'm not missing out on too much.

    I suspect a lot of the “feels crappy” effect is that the old Sigil allowed you to trade less useful items for more useful ones.

    The new one, for the most part, fails to replicate that. Much of the items are purchasable only via Sigil credits (pots, for example) when they used to be a way to trade low value or low rarity items in for better ones.

    The Black ISO market does offer that option to some extent, but the change in value proposition (for example, large bulk shard exchanges for whole crystals instead of shard trade-ups) and the timer (often a while
    month in lieu of weekly) help to reinforce the “feels crappy” element.

    Sure there’s T4a, but that’s once a month and requires a ton of T3a to get there (a cat that remains very useful). Sure there are Titan crystals, but the road to get to one is many, many months—and if you happen to use your credits on items that used to be available for other items, it’s just that much longer.
