lately a lot of drops are just ridiculous, in a bad way mind you ...

Talismans: how the bloody hell am i supposed to level my all warrior-team when i never get any 1* evo runes dropped? EVER
i'm not even joking, after grinding all my sands of time for a week and 6 days, i have 1 1* warrior evo rune. i need 6 to get 1 talisman to lvl 40 , i use 13 warrior talismans, thats 78 1* evo runes just to get them to lvl 40.. don't get me started on 50.
okay,so if ya can't level em, just get better characters right?
i'm lvl 51 currently, and i have even spent money on the game from time to time, i have 0 five star characters. zero.
it's really hard to progress, i understand that the game is not meant to be easy (quote from our good friend) but something has to be done about this. i haven't made any progression in 2 weeks. i can't upgrade my characters,and i can't get better ones.
i'll still keep playing though, even though it slaps the motivation out of you everyday ....
it's maiden amarite?
