Dear friends,
I would like to officially explain the reasons of drop changes a couple of days ago. They are simple - we see that speed of levelling increases dramatically, especially on high levels.
It’s not about forcing all players to spend a lot of cash. The game remains free for people who don’t want pay. We appreciate everybody in the community, no matter how much money the player spends. However, every game designer has to establish limitations and this is what we do now.
We don’t expect increased plat sales after this change since slower levelling means less art upgrades. Of course we hope that these losses will be compensated by lazy, rich and impatient players :)
But expected overall income will probably remain more or less the same.
Please also remember that our server still enjoys increased gold drop with factor 1.5.
Hope for your understanding and best regards,
Nikolay
