More recruits in my boat this morning. Plus blessings a won't use from ads. I am starting to get excited when I see a reasonable number of trade goods as one of the options - this is a bad change.

Its not like people in low medal range is asking for 90000 oil for their victory chest rewards. Just go back to giving something like 3 ciders or whatever they are called in general and everybody will be happy again. Players should be able to choose whatever medal count they want and they shouldn't be forced into certain leagues with these useless rewards.

I'm British AA, level 223, and I just received 1 of my green jacket riflemen.
Thank you Nexon! :D

ps: that was sarcasm.

I am sure Nexon is keeping careful track of all the whiners and complainers here. Those folks will be sure to get lumps of coal in their victory chest come the holidays... (Never mind the fact that they could introduce coal as a rss in the IA lol... This could actually be useful!)
I am not particularly angry over blessings and troops in the victory chest. They fit nicely into some of our lower level Strongholds for war who may not get troop cards otherwise. I would, however, prefer NTGs!

Remove the blessings. Kill the recruits forever. Don't offer any troop cards more than one age below your current age (if that means they aren't an option in lower leagues, perfect). And all of the new stuff that is left limited to only showing up in one of the slots, or add a 4th/5th slot, and only have them show up in there.

The changes have thrown off the balance of being able to get good things out of the chest in lower leagues. They don't need to be anything even remotely as good as the higher leagues, but they shouldn't be worse than before the changes.

Yes, recruits should be removed from the game completely. Removed from chests, offers, and all rewards. Nobody in their right mind would use them over something else, when you can just train one yourself. They are pointless unless you are ridiculously under-leveled.

I'm in gold league and I don't get NTGs like I used to. Only these annoying blessings. Why, Nexon? Why?? Also, now that you're generously giving out useless blessings, how about giving out Trap blessings (which you recently nerfed, for no good reason) and Training blessings? But, I would much rather have NTGs.

says who?

I'm sorry, but I think players are frustrated that the "rewards" turns into useless junk and are no longer "rewards."

Also, I am guessing you don't war... or at least don't war with maxed coalitions. Try doing that and being high in medals... then come back and tell me how it went.

Just because you experience is different, it doesn't negate someone else's experience. You probably play the game a bit differently than other people. But, it benefits us all when this game appeals to as many people as possible.

I have gotten 97500 oil from my victory chests over the last 9 days and 32500 oil since the changes. I don't see why everyone is complaining. I think you might get more desirable options the higher medals count you get, as well as in higher quantity. If your medal count is below Kingdom league you really don't deserve to be getting higher tier rewards, that is the sacrifice you guys make for throwing away medals to get easier opponents and more loot. You have to pick and choose between better victory chests or more loot/easier opponents. You can't have the best of both worlds.

Gonna call B.S. on this. I'm in empire and been getting crappy chest since update. Only been offered oil once. The only reason I climb medals was for the loot on chest. Now it sucks.

Your Victory Chest rewards are related to your League. Be sure to stay in Gold or above for the chance to see National Trade Goods in your Victory Chest!

I really does make a difference. Good to see players being rewarded for not dropping medals 😀

Gangstaville You can call BS all you want but it is true. I will admit over the last week I have only gotten one oil reward, but the rest were all food or gold in excess of 3 million. I am sure I did get some good RNG for that oil run but either way the rewards are great.

KniferX I usually get 1 or 2 diamonds just from destroying their storehouses (which are more often than not unprotected) and the town center. I don't get many but at the end of a session I might have 6-8 diamonds which is enough for me to recruit a mercenary army for my next war and have a tactics blessing for the next victory chest I go for.

yemen Nope they were definitely well protected silos in the middle or near the middle of their base. I don't need to destroy the silo using my strategy, the amount of infantry I put down doesn't even trigger it.

nucleo - Sniping town centers for a few stars is not hard, has decent rewards at times, and is boring and tedious. Also, not impacted by the missile silo. When I left the original comment, I didn't realize that was your strategy - I will quit shortly after I discover that is the only viable strategy, and I suspect the same is true for most.

So a training blessing is 6 cider and 2 diamonds - I'm OK with getting those and have taken a few on offer. They aren't all bad!

yemen I was doing this long before the missile silo update. There are definitely ways to counter the missile silo with things like decoys, sabotages and good placement of tanks. I am sure they will nerf the stats in the future as well so I don't think you should jump the gun.

This has fallen further down the list with additional changes to complain about. But more stupid rewards this morning - a couple more blessings I will never use, plus ANOTHER recruit from the ads. Recruits are dumb in any context, but just horrendous as a reward from an ad.
