Where you acknowledge a reduction in rewards for some and explain the larger reasoning on your end behind them? That’s model communication right there. I don’t have to like the decision (who likes fewer rewards?) . I don’t even need to agree with the reasoning (though here I’m fine with it) - being straightforward about any change to the economy and the reasons behind it goes a LONG way toward my own personal goodwill.

I feel this is another way that your younger /transitioning rosters are getting “left behind” as @krakenoon articulated so well in their post. I don’t know if you are done answering questions, but some information here would be greatly appreciated. I like that you are trying to “think of the little guy” with your decisions, but I have to tell you that that choice was not a popular one, especially for transitioners. I’m curious about your thought process and if you’d be open to reverting it back?For me personally, when PVP saw a reduction in rewards overall, that one move made me feel it was a decent trade. Then it got taken away with no communication. Thanks for any information you can provide!

ArchusMonk said: I enjoyed Day 1. My concern is column 4 on days 2 and 3. Is OML going to continue to be loaned out? Based on the event description he will not be. However, why would you lock 4* rewards behind a 5* required? I don’t think the old ST had a required 5*? And furthermore the old ST would reward an LT at the end which this one will not? I guess we’ll find out tomorrow, but I’ll be pretty disappointed if the 5* doesn’t continue to be loaned out.
