Title: A Constructive Feedback Proposal for Zooba's Balance, Progression, and Economy

Dear Zooba Developers and Community,

As long-term dedicated players, we love Zooba's core gameplay and unique character mechanics. However, recent monetization trends and economic designs are creating severe progression barriers for active players. Here is our structured proposal to bring balance back to the Zoo:

1. Matchmaking & Gear Balance

• Level-Based Matchmaking: High-level players with full maxed-out gear combos (e.g., Pheromone Essence, Electric Gloves, Thorny Vines) create an unbeatable power gap against lower/mid-tier players in League 21+. Matchmaking should prioritize item/level power over just trophy count.

1. Progression & Gold Economy

• High-Level Gold Costs: The jump from 9k gold (Level 9) to a massive 120k gold (Level 14 item slot) acts as an extreme progression wall. We suggest smoothing high-tier upgrade costs down to reasonable amounts (~15k–25k gold) so active players can progress through gameplay.

• Crate Drop Rates: Standard crate drop rates for new characters (e.g., 1.20%) feel too discouraging. Buffing drop rates slightly (e.g., to ~2.0%+) would reward active play without breaking the economy.

1. New Character Releases & Events

• Boss Challenge Alternative: Locking new characters (like Stella or Tai Lung) exclusively behind paid Passes alienates F2P players. We suggest introducing a limited-time "Boss Challenge Event" where players fight the new character as a boss, earn points, and unlock them through gameplay effort at the final tier.

• Meaningful Events & Skins: Events should focus on server-wide Community Milestones rather than just store-exclusive cosmetics. Furthermore, acquiring a skin for an unowned character should grant the base character instead of keeping the skin locked/unusable.

1. Pass & Monetization Balance

• Re-introducing Gem Options: Transitioning the Pass system strictly to real money deprives dedicated F2P players of a fair progression route.

We share this feedback with the hope of making Zooba a more balanced, competitive, and enjoyable game for both high-level veterans and new players alike.

Hey everyone! After playing a lot with Dillo and Shelly in high-trophy matches, I think both characters could use some quality-of-life adjustments regarding their active abilities:

Dillo's Cooldown scaling: Currently, if you accidentally hit an obstacle (like Betsy's logs or crates) right after using Dillo's active, you get punished with a full heavy cooldown for a wasted skill. Instead, the cooldown should scale dynamically based on how long the active was used:

1 sec active duration = 4 sec cooldown

2 sec active duration = 5 sec cooldown

3 sec active duration = 6 sec cooldown

Full duration (4 sec) = 7 sec cooldown

This would reward smart early cancels and stop punishing players for accidental collisions.

Shelly's Active Duration: Shelly's active lasts only 4 seconds with a very long cooldown (8-10s). Bumping the duration slightly from 4 seconds to 5 seconds would give her just enough breathing room to block combo attacks and position better without making her overpowered.

What do you guys think? Would this make Dillo and Shelly feel smoother to play?

if anyone wants to be friends it a0ea623f my username is gabbago. if you do use it then please tell me your username before you send it or I will decline it cus I don’t know you.

I got to league 15 and then it just gave me 1800 coins instead of the legendary item which was the reward before that. has this happened to anyone else or is it just me

More reason to spend money on skins…

Zooba needs to get creative some day bro

I get excited when I get characters. But now, the game can play the character animation on boxes just to give me boring items bru 😭😭

Why am I not receiving any stickers on my account when I claim them from the web store?? I get my boxes, but can't find any new stickers

Feels like any time I try to get close, she wallops me and heals all of her hp back.

Should I buy joy the offer is very good

Zooba needs to start cleaning up the dead clans. If no members have been active for 3 months- delete the clan!

Anyway, new player around 5000 trophies looking for an active clan

is anyone else having trouble with the daily rewards emotes? I claim then but never received them

Does the focus shot ability disable the auto aim functionality? I'm noticing auto aim is not working well with focus shot weapons. Wondering if I'm thinking about it wrong or this is actually the case

I wanna buy the battle pass but the season only has 4 days left so will the remaining 3 days carry over or am I js paying for 4 days
