We need Troop Chests!

[LordTywin242AC]

No Angel how long has it been since the last Troop Chest? Over 2 months?

 

[yemen]

I burned all my rubies the last time a decent troop chest offer was available, and am back up to full. Opting accounts out of war as they fill up. Marco is supposed to be a net plus to the game, instead he is annoying us all.

Nexon, please separate out the spend parts of the system from the free parts. Make marco free to play again.

 

[No Angel]

Over 2 months indeed

 

[Cannibals]

With no troop chests there are no training blessings for lower age accounts.

 

[Teutonic]

What's the point of rubies? That was a nice reward for winning wars, but now they're almost irrelevant. Why not include crowns as part of the rewards for winning wars? Just a thought.

 

[Festivus]

Troop chests were the one thing they got right with Marco. And they knew that we appreciated the troop chests - and only the troop chests. So they get rid of them. Why?

 

[Imaera]

Because they knew that we appreciated the troop chests - and only the troop chests.))
This, i think, it's the only company in the world that makes everything it can to annoy it's customers.

 

[Bedlam]

Such a sad state of affairs now. Its a shame to see it go this way.

I don't know about you people but just throwing cards on every ww attack does not make sense. Not every war requires cards unless you are playing in the top 100 or something. If you need cards to clear a base in EVERY world war attack, chances are you are either lazy or suck.

No, we don't hit bases in WW with troop tactics EVERY TIME. Everybody knows that matchmaking is still the biggest issue currently. Hitting harder bases might make you think to use TT
Boooooooo

 

[Alexey]

Yes, not every war does. But when it comes to a hard fight you need not only to use them in attack, but also to fill up the strongholds at least for your hardest bases.

 

[yemen]

Alternatively, you can just opt in to 0TT, and never fill strongholds or use troop cards. Glory is meaningless in any case, between cheaters, terrible matchmaking, and abandoned teams filling the leaderboards. So just have fun when you get a match that is worth your energy, and play the others for AXP or whatever other internal games your alliance wants to do.

I still struggle to believe that Nexon is stupid enough to rebalance the game in favor of defense because premium cards make offense to powerful. But that is the way they are going, I am opting out of that system as much as possible and would encourage others to do the same. Just don't use troop cards.

 

[Bootney Lee Fonsworth]

I've been telling that to my alliance mates for years, yet they've become so dependent on this crutch that they pout, moan and opt out of wars when there are no troop chests and cards available. Apart from the opting out of wars Nexon played them perfectly. Now they are completely incapable of attacking even simple bases without doubling their army size using a finite resource that is bestowed only by the whims of the developers. I imagine they'll bring troop chests around again once the infamous ''data'' shows people weaning themselves off such behavior. Probably after this rebalance and just in time to whet appetites for when they reveal some new gee whiz uber-cards in time for the holidays.

 

[Bootney Lee Fonsworth]

That would be nice, but there's a whole generation of players in this game who seem to believe troop cards are just something you use the maximum of for every war attack. Kudos to the devs for fostering such a wicked sense of dependency, as disgusted as I am by it personally.

Am I missing something? Isn’t there an endless supply of free troops via the dock?

 

[No Angel]

Yeah true yemen we'll all probably go 0TT eventually, it's just that I barely started this alliance 2 months ago with plenty of greenies, so I don't think we could equalize ''premium'' 0TT alliances

 

[Mountainking]

Be sensible.
i) Use cards when you need to. Hitting any non D base if you are on O should normally not require any cards unless their SHs are filled.
ii) If you need cards to clear a non D/non SH filled base while being on O, the base is too big for you. Drop that ego thing and hit something lower in your capabilities.
iii) Sometimes using 1-2 low or crap cards can get the job done. Example: a well placed pirate army in a corner with res buildings or a low lvl4 impi/soldier card somewhere out of redoubts range etc.

Use it only and when the WW requires it. If you do the 3 above, you will literally be overloaded with cards much like I am right now.....

They aren't quite free. Workers are a very expensive currency in Dominations.

Drop that ego thing and hit something lower in your capabilities.

Due to Nexon's inability to fix matchmaking, most of the times it's not about the ego. Either you hit bases 50 lvls or more above you, or lose the war.

 

[Mountainking]

Imaera Yes I was talking about normal wars where you do not have to hit 70+ levels....

 

[oddin]

Well, things are not quite like this. Unfortunately I am number 1 in WW. This means that 80% of the time I am fighting against 235+ Atomic age bases or 225++ Cold war bases which are much better than my offensive capability at this moment. So, even when I don't want to, I am forced to use troop cards in order to 5 star them. Otherwise, I simply lose the war if I don't go well in my attacks because we all know that in small wars, the first 2-3 players, are the ones that decide the winner.
