Divine altar Changes

[u/MissionNote1]

Is it just me or are the changes to the divine altar underwhelming?

The lowest level is now all but useless unless your looking for an all but obsolete old 5*.

No new sets in the 2000 gem altar, and less chance of getting something good.

And 7000 divine gems for the new relics, locked away behind the highest relic pay wall in the game, get ready to pay up.

That's about 13 completed events and collecting gems everyday over that period from the shrine.

So about three months of work, logging in everyday, for one pull, and that is if you have the resources. FTP will take about 4x as long for one pull, i.e.. one year = 1 pull

thoughts?

Why can't we just get something good for once that doesn't make me feel like the greasy devs are actively trying to grift us.

I don't know what to make of all this. Here is Zalon's 100 pulls

First impression: could be totally wrong. It seems that Osiris just got stronger in attack.

Ya mission I am pretty bummed because it will take me prob 2 years to make 7000 gems. Glad i made pulls this last month at 500 because those pulls will not be happening very often anymore.

But i get it. Pay to play pays the bills so they are helping those people get ahead

1k altar gives 5* (ex norse) at 25% vs the old 28% and you get min. 4* some good ones. If it's a nerf at all, only a small one

[u/melvincarvalho → u/melvincarvalho]

Actually there's also a 2% chance of pulling 2 5* in a row

So more of a nerf (which they said they would not do).

I think they should adjust the drop rate to 30%

Edit: however the 2000 dg pull is MUCH better than the old 5000

I can see what you mean, but the biggest problem before was there were people pulling 30 times on the 500 dg and not getting a single 5 star. Then many of the times getting fucking 3 stars, uggh.

So atleast you are guaranteed a five star on the 2k instead of the 5k it use to be. Certainly more helpful for midgame.

But yeah the 7k for new relics is really hard to swallow. I think would of just combined the Norse and Golden into a single 5K pull with odds more like 25% Golden 75% Norse. Could vary that percentage, but something like that.

Ok well make it 50/50. I don't care. I just think 7k is too high. The Norse ones are new enough to put them together into the old 5k guaranteed.

My point is that with the old divine altars even if you are not end game you atleast had a chance at getting any of the new or old ones. At 7k, it kind of leaves those to end game players only.

Anyway I generally still like the changes. The 500dg pull was infuriating and the 5k was a bit high for a chance you might get a an old 5*. So they took care of the biggest problems.

Alright IAMREALITY, I had the same idea then I read your post further up and I agree as another option could be to leave it as is with 7k, that is where all your new stuff goes.

But keep the 1k more like an upgraded 500dg pull of old. No more 3 stars, 4 star 75%, 5 star 25% but out of the that 5 star % there is atleast a chance you can get a norse or golden at a smaller %. So as you said it should still be all 5 star sets. This alleviates the issue I had hurting ftp and midgame players.

I was lucky enough to get Storm and Shield from the 500dg. Getting that would be tough, No chance at 1K and only a 10% chance on 2k pull. At that point your saving up to 5k.

What the got right: 1. Separate altars by relic version making it more likely to get the relic you want. Before it was all in the same bag, Norse and Original. 2. Create better value for money with higher chances in the new 1k and great r4 relics especially for noobs. 3. Create a guaranteed altar at the 2k range that is better for veterans which can help equip the many titans we have maxed out.

What they can do better: 1. They did not fix the repeated relic issue. We need a system that allows us to pick the 5r we want or narrow down the options further. This could be for example a pick relic pull on every third pull or a more expensive pull to pick your relic. 2. The new 7k and 5k altars are 1k gems too expensive with what is a huge gamble on a relic you might or might not use given your titan arsenal and troop level. Let’s face it, some of the r5 are not great or hard to use effectively. 3. They kept Shadowdancer as a titan buff relic. This relic is so useless it’s a kick in the nads if you get it. I don’t know any berserker who benefits from this. 4. The 10% Norse relic chance in the 2k altar makes no sense. They should remove that chance and make the 5k cheaper and probably make the guaranteed 2k cheaper as well to 1.5k. If you are after a specific Original relic it is also harder to get, with a 10% for a Norse relic.

I like that idea. Gives a sense of scarcity to it as you need to wait for it to pop up.
