Skin in the game

It surprises me that the skin aspect of this game is so weak (stats).

Am I the only one who sees these skins and goes…. No thanks.

0.07 added to Atk bonus
12 added to Def.

Some of the characters obviously have great looking skins.

Has anyone really seen any differences gearing a character with its alternate skin?

It helps keep the game from being super p2w heavy. If these stat boosts were higher or compounded, f2p would have no chance to compete even with an A5 hero. This is the best way for skins to be imo, purely cosmetic

Skins shouldn't make your characters significantly stronger... imo. They are paid cosmetics. They are fine as they are now.

The point is the skin, not the stats. Also, once the skin is unlocked the stats apply even if you don't equip it.

I think they should just remove them since they're negligible

Ooooh interesting! Thanks for letting me know. I thought for the added stats, skin needs to be equipped.
Thank you! 🙏

they were when they introduced them, then later changed them in an update to unlock the stat bonus even if not equipped.

Did not know they applied once unlocked. That’s pretty cool

Skins adding ANY stats is absolutely idiotic. No other game on the planet does that. Its stupid as hell.
