It is great to read that some of the players are also aware of what is happening right now and do not buy those talisman sets! Do you remember the time before BNW opened? Explosive Talis were the ones you needed that time and I bought one set. One week later BNW opened and there you can farm those Talis. I was angry about the money I spent not knowing that they will be available one week later. Since then I did not buy any Talisman for real cash and I think I did not buy anything at all until the smalles hero pack recently as a donation. And I hope that many others do the same. But there will always be players, that have maxed everything just 1 hour after a character event+new Talisman release started. I saw this during the last arena event and thought how they made that many victories that fast...they didn't, they just bought the pack (45€ or something like that?. I really did not think of that option, but it seems like some guys always need to have/buy the new stuff as quick as possible. Where is the challenge? Recently I thought about the powershield-Talis, as I am still sitting on the 2 I got during the respective arena event (297 wins, grrr)...and what happens? They sell them in the shop! Do I buy it? NO! Why? Experience and frustration about the lack of information about future plans for the game! I am not a fan of pay 2 win. The good thing is, normally they don't sell really good stuff for money. I have seen freeze sets in the shops :D But back to the story about the explosives... do you know what that might mean right now? Some new game mode will be available "soon", as "soon" as enough desperate players have thrown enough money in! There you will be able to farm these new Talismans. So please for all the rich bags and desperate kids: BUY BUY BUY, buy everything in the shop! It is super important! We need you to buy more servers, more employees, more characters and Talismans! /rant I am getting old
