This fix is a start, but not enough

As an example, at this "buffed" rate it takes me 12.5 months to deplete my bg token stash. But it gets better, look at the 275 day timer, that's 10 months. So anyone with over 120,000 bg tokens will basically lose everything above that amount.

The glory buff is better, 7 weeks if you're maxed out is only half bad at least

But then you look at the artifacts and they didn't change. For a 200,000 artifact stash it takes you half a year to convert. And we all know how incursions pumped artifacts on special events most people have over 300-400k even which again.

We had access to 3 stores to buy things now its all cramped into 1 with minimal purchase caps and our resources were made to funnel in with a damn straw

The only solution is to open up the stores and let everyone have the choice to either use up their resources or wait a few months to convert slowly.

It's so ridiculous they honestly just need to open up the Battlegrounds and Incusions and Glory store back up for an initial month so that we can just spend our resources in two different places and alleviate a lot of this unnecessary suffering and throttling of currency conversions.

I just love how silent kabam is about all this, one announcement mentioning the glory limit and the raids tickets and nothing else they know they fu*ked up 😂

Now that's in my head.

Could Kabam not have sent out an in-game message weeks ago: “You have until March 9 at 9:00 am PST to spend your artifact, loyalty, glory, and battleship currencies. At that time, those stores will close.”? We would have spent our stockpiles. Like the post states, that remains the problem. I have 517,490 artifacts. I will not be able to trade that in by the time the timer expires.

"The design of the Trade-In system is intended for there to be a steady drip of Essentia over time, to support the shift to Essentia, so that Summoners with a large stack of outdated resources don't get a major surplus of resources on day 1 compared to those who don't." That are our own earned resources. We get no advantage because the other did not earn a large stack or already spend it. So what is the point. And the expiration date for the trade in did not allow us to switch all resources to essentia until it expire. You rob us what we earned. Bring the stores back for a month that is the minimum.

My biggest problem are trophy tokens cause I have 160k so I will lose a lot. Glory or artifacts you can still buy raid tickets and save your over stash there. It shouldn’t be the solution. They should reopen the old stores at least for one week to let us purchase. But can we do with trophy tokens?

On the other hand, multiple items that we could buy before are not in essentia. This is a lose lose situation. This has been the most awful management of Kabam in a long time.

I've got over 420,000+ Incursion Artefacts. Trading in 8,000 per week (the maximum, for 700 Essentia) is going to take just over a year for me to trade them all in for Essentia so because of the limit - week by week.

This time yesterday, I had full control over when and how I spent them.

At this stage, I suspect that putting the old stores back for a few days may be the best (only) option.

This is exactly what happens with Kabam's seemingly unchangeable policy of no information is needed until stuff is live in game. If we had known even a week ago at the live stream that we would only be able to ever convert 120k trophies we could have spent down to that level. Same with incursion artifacts. Its so dumb to be like "we don't want people who have gotten rewards to get a leg up" when there is both a cap to the currency as well as a cap to what you can buy. It didn't also need a cap to conversion.
