Am I the only one who notices the horridly scaled gem price for finishing up the "Request Troops" and Barb King/Archer Queen heal?
It costs about 7 gems to finish troops taking 20 minutes.
For the Barb King if he's down for 20 minutes it costs about 30 gems.
Same applies for Requesting Troops.
yea the request troops thing is way to much, i agree.
I've never really used gems for requesting troops/heroes, if I were you, I'd grow some patience.Quote:

The reason why its so much is because you make troops more than you upgrade. So they're gonna have to make it a bigger cost for gems so that people SPEND more on gems.Quote:

20 minutes left on BK/AQ healing = 30 gems
20 minutes left on Request Troops CD = 30 gems.
Do you not see the issue?
I've put money into this game and not once even with a large amount of excess gems have I found the Heal and Request Troops worth the gem price.
I don't understand how other people don't understand that SC won't willingly lose easy money.
I don't understand how you don't see that they don't make money off of those 2 skills.Quote:

All I'm really trying to say (and sorry for getting off the wrong foot with you) is that the heroes and requesting troops are the most frequently used thing, and making it so that it is cheaper is not going to help. Even though they nerfed the heroes, they are still a valuable asset in battles, same thing with requesting troops. Its gonna be harder to obtain what is needed.Quote:
