I like the troop cards. Always have them there for mopping up bases.

I'm fine with poor or low level troops in the lowers ages. If it's my decision to stay low then I accept the consequences.
If you risk less you get less, that's fair.

They boosted the rewards massively, and I still have no interest in going up there. I get low level cards? Fine. It's a choice I made. I could make way more than the league bonuses by hanging low, so I think it's great they are scaled with medals. Some want everything for nothing.

they recently buffed video ad rewards so we get random 25, 50, or even 100 crowns from a video. this more than makes up for the junk rewards. btw people playing on dominations asia dont even have this feature

and as for league and star rewards, it is easier to farm in lower leagues so the poor rewards are your trade off. its fair.

but i do wish we had clear info about which rewards are available to which leagues. thats would help me better decide which league i want to play in lol and maybe make it so we are choosing out of 5 or so rather than out of 3 choices since there are way more options now

League bonus the same way. Yet with that I could preview the army stats and again its Gunpowder for a Global player. no thanks. +4 cider far more useful

Nerfing the League Boat & Victory chest is pretty lame. Why would I want to be at a higher league where collecting NTG and getting a 5star victory is all the more difficult. Plus now they have missile silos.
I don't want those troop CARDS (freebies). I spent sufficiently on troop CARDS and am not at all happy to get these shitty/poor CARDS. I would rather like the League boat put back to normal.
I guess it's high time to find some ALTERNATE game that's reasonable and not sucking blood money.

I'm sorry to say Quali that it used to be better at higher leagues before this upgrade. The boat comes once in a day and offers me 1Blessing and 1 each of 2armies that I used in IA days.. No thanks I don't need them. I need my NTG/ TGoods back.. it's difficult to maintain League ranking and then all for this?
Everyone gets those. So why would stay Dynasty?

let me get this straight: people complain wars are p2win cause alliance put troop card into their ally members, now nexon others troop cards basically for free through the victory chests, boats, medal reward etc. and now people complain that they get those? and if you really play to lower your medal count and the complain then armies are not your level its actually your own fault. i like the armies very much i contribute them in world wars to my ally members.

First, most of the "free" troop cards you get are not Atomic age troops. Seceondly, I've yet to see elephant archers or yumi warriors offered for free, which is really what drives pay to win. They are usually weak troops. Even if they did occasionally give out a free elephant archer, I'd need around 4 of them a day to keep up with the pay to win wars we are stuck with.

4 a day wouldnt cut it, that is if you wanted to use them on defense as well.

To add to the ongoing objection to ad changes, watched my videos this morning:
Cavalry Recruit
3 crowns
Animal blessing
3 crowns
King's Longbowman Troop Card. At least it was age appropriate.

Give me the 9 missing crowns, with a chance at 25/50/75/100, and take the recruit(!), animal blessing, and card back.

TinSoldier thanks for responding. I get that you receive better rewards as you climb higher in medals, it’s exactly as it should be. What I don’t understand is there was a significant change to dock and victory chest rewards a month or two ago, which seemed to be universally accepted as positive, but these rewards have regressed now.
The change a month or so ago saw choices (at around the 2,200 range) of 3 or 4 NTGs, 6k oil, 3.5 million food/gold as examples. If you climbed higher your rewards got even better. The dock/victory chest rewards only come around once a day so should be good at lower levels and amazing at higher levels, which is how they were for the last month. Now they’ve been reverted back to being good at high levels and largely useless at lower levels.
Did Nexon decide the rewards were too good since the last update so have decided to scale them back again? That’s fine if so but, like everyone else, just give us back the old useless rewards like paltry amounts of food or one NTG. The emphasis Nexon place on blessings is really weird - 50 rubies for a fortification blessing or 15 stars in the the victory chest for an animal blessing. Its really bizarre.

nucleo This is your description of how you go about multiplayer attacks on another thread;

“I will look for a battle where the town center is outside of the walls and easy to access (and has either no forbidden city or a vulnerable one) and then I will take out the town center, get my two stars, pick up any easy to get resources and then pull out in under a minute.”

I wouldn’t go pointing the finger at other weak players wanting rewards for a “lack of effort” when you appear to be going to very little effort for your rewards.....

Lord P It took at least half a month to fine tune this strategy and I experimented with a bunch of different compositions and tactics. The early stages were actually really rough because base selection is very important. Some look very easy but are actually very difficult depending on donated troops and traps. It also comes with the sacrifice that I hardly get any loot from my attacks. I don't have a problem with people sandbagging but when they start crying that they aren't receiving the rewards of the victory chest I get annoyed because they are raking in tons of loot in lieu of this choice. My choice may be easier than getting 15 stars by 3 five star attacks, but my method does come with the consequence of very little loot but you don't see me crying over it because I made an active decision to do this with the tradeoff being better victory chests.

yes but thats a different argument then. troop cards shoul be aproprate to the medal count im all for that. if only certain troop types are valid in the game its a balancing issue obvsly.

It's confusing isn't it. People must have the best free stuff 😀

indeed though my comment is under the premise that the high leaque rewards are indeed apropriate lvlwise. im in a low age so i rely what was said in here. nexon: high medal count must be awarded apropriatly. and please: troop recruit cards are really worthless. i know how programmers think, they mostly dont play their own game or only in dev mode, listen to your players!

I think it is a "reward" which means it should NOT be giving me something that I would only use to not clutter my inventory... like when someone disregards my request and gives me the wrong troops and I have to dump them, well, recruits are NOT a reward. Give me trade goods, not a recruit. Also, not sure I have seen any NTG since the update.
