So i just heard theres a free trial month of the sigil and i didn't know it was free....i hit the renew thing for $10 and i just wasted $10 for something that was already free.

i want my money back or atleast give me compensate of 2 months +
cause if i would of known the sigil was free for first month i wouldn't of bought it.
You heard wrong, it’s a weeks trial. “I can’t read, compensate me!” Lol

In fairness, I don't recall seeing anything in the game that told the players there was a free trial, and I looked for it. The pop up seemed to imply that if you wanted the benefits of the program you'd have to buy it, even though the button said "renew." It seemed odd to me that Kabam wouldn't want to hype the free trial of the Sigil within the game itself right at the start. In any case I can understand some confusion here on the part of some players.

I am guessing that the pop up panel was designed to account for the fact that a week from now players that start playing will see the same panel that we currently see but won't be getting the free week so the panel can't advertise the free week "baked in" and they didn't want to make two different panels.

The sigil gives free units. It doesnt make sense to pay units to get free units. Also the purpose is to make kabam money. Charging units wouldnt help pay their bills.

This summoner sigil should be fair to all players who are free to play and pay to play. It's not fair to those people who grind hard for arenas and are completely free to play. Speaking from experience her.

Accept the fact that the game is going to sell things, and those things have to be things people want to pay for. In a free to play game, nothing is perfectly on-paper fair. The people who spend get an advantage over you, and you probably think that's not fair. But on the other hand, you get to play the game completely for free: how is that fair to the people who pay to fund the game and keep it alive? Why should you get to play for free when they don't play for free.

Players of free to play games have to recognize that the free players get something and the paying players get something and that trade off is reasonable in the end. And if you don't agree, then this is not the kind of game for you.

The fact that you got it without paying and it has a 7 day countdown clock on it should have been enough info.

What will happen when the increase inventory resets to original? The catalyst will go back to stash or it will be like expired?

They'll stay in your Inventory.

@Kabam Miike I had a T5 Basic Catalyst expiring in 9 days before it was added to my new T5 capacity stash. When the Sigil trial ends will this renew the expiration to 30 days to use the catalyst or will it expire 9 days after the trial ends?

In other words......Once the Sigil trial ends, will items that were expiring in overflow, that were moved to our stash based on the new Sigil stash capacity, be moved back to overflow with the same expiration before the trial or get renewed to the full expiration period (14 or 30 days)?

It will stay in your inventory. Your capacity will basically show 7/6.

Of course it is fair for FTP players who grind. That's kind of why they grind. So they can get what they need without spending lmao. People spending on the game keeps the game going for FTP players. The fact that so many don't get this is blowing my mind. There is no reason why this should be a 32 page thread lol.

Great, thank you. Where was this clarified? I couldn’t find it anywhere.

I like the free rewards don’t get me wrong

But I claimed stuff from my overflow not realizing it’d put me over the limit when the free **** expires

So can the mods answer the question will we lose stuff we EARNED if we don’t purchase it once week is done

Well, it will go into overflow again but at least the timer will be reset. I had a T4CC in overflow that I claimed, so when it goes into overflow it will be 30 days again.

Last paragraph of the announcement and multiple posts from Kabam since.

I believe @Kabam Miike said that you keep the extra items in your inventory even after you drop the Sigil. Once you use them your capacity is back to the smaller version. So it's better than refreshing the timer on expiration. Everyone should claim everything they can while they have the free trial for sure.

CoatHang3r

@Kabam Miike can you confirm a) that excess inventory items will just flow into stash after expiration and b) if someone does subscribe that it doesn’t auto renew?
Hey there. We covered both of those in our announcement, but no, it will not auto-renew, and your items will remain in your Inventory and not just disappear.
So would our inventory read something like 15/12 then or would the extra three items then push over to the stash like any other overflow item with a 30 day timer? Just trying to clarify. TIA!
That is exactly correct! You'd have more than the actual Limit in your Inventory. Nothing is sent back to your stash, or deleted.

Prolly need to repost this every page for a week now.

I have a problem with the increased inventory capacity. I had 12 T4b in overflow with varying expiry dates. What I would usually do is use a few that were expiring soon to rank up a low 5* if I didn't have a R4/R5 option and keep my overflow controlled. Now when the sigil runs out next week and I use a couple of the T4b in my inventory they won't be replaced by a couple from my overflow. I have to use up all 9, plus the 3 in overflow, within 37 days or I will lose them.

I have to say, now that I see it, it's worth the ten bucks.

So you’ll just need to use those in the stash. Not sure you why you’re trying to say that extra slots that don’t expire when the sigil expires is a bad thing.

The only thing I'm concerned about is the "price subject to change." For $9.99, I'm all in, because it's a great value and doesn't break the bank. But the moment the price goes up without any increase in benefits then "it's a no for me, dawg."

Nick_Caine_32

please PLEASE make the notification go away on my profile box, every time I go into the game it's back even though I said I didn't want it as my title. Very annoying

Obicrix

So far it seems like a decent deal if you are looking to break out of the low to middle tier of players and get ready to tackle harder content, which I am. I may stick with it a month or two and then reevaluate.

They stated they have no plans to change it and that is just legal talking.

How is this a problem? You would be at the same place in 37 days now as you would be if you didnt have the sigil at all.

Overall I think this sounds like a fair way for Kabam to add revenue without creating an imbalance in the game. However, the skeptic in me is concerned they’ll now add to energy requirements to complete monthly event quests thus causing players without the Sigil to have to buy energy refills to keep up and complete the same amount of events they normally would.
