While this is nice and all, most people that had hit the rank 200 Shield Rank wall have no need for ISO (I have 24 million now).

Is something new coming along that we can spend ISO on??

    I would like to see shield rank increase and give out stuff other than ISO.  Maybe 5* shards or CP instead of ISO.  I am at 196 and have been post ISO for a long time

    Some people may need iso, but I'm at SR205 and have 15.5 million.  I'm in no danger of running short, even if I leveled all my partial dupe 4s.

    It seems like a poor use of development time to give people who were R200 and likely, basically, post-iso anyway more stuff they don't need.

    On the other hand, given the current state of affairs re: other in game currency (that is, reducing it throughout the game in exchange for shards), I'm not sure there was any other reward they would have put in.  No one past SR200  needs more riso either (probably).

    I'm not sure how far they went with the max level possible, but there's a report of someone at SR279.

    EDIT:  Max is now 300. 

    I realize this was a complain-y post but I guess it’s more curiosity about how many people are/were SR200 and need iso.

    The dev is aware that too much ISO-8 is a problem for the very elder game, and increasing shield rank beyond 200 helps to only expand this problem. Therefore, Black-ISO Market is coming soon. Long-time players will be able to trade their ISO-8 for shards, CP or HP. Soon, those ISO-8 multi-millionaires will be reduced to paupers after the trade.

    Sadly I'm still in ISO debt. While I'm champing more and more 4* (and 100 levels of no ISO bliss), new 4* and 5* keep coming. I will get there eventually, but it takes along time.

    I've been tracking my ISO debt for a while. It looked like I was going to get out of the hole some time in September. Then my 3* farm hit a bunch of turnover and it's looking more like September of next year. I have plenty of HP from selling those but I have to keep "watering" the new 3*s with ISO.

    I spent 2.2 million iso today and am still 12.5 million in the black. 

    Iso is worthless for the most part.

    Just hit 194 the other day, kinda sad that I won't hit the old level cap now.

    But yeah, shield levels this high generally don't need more iso.
