Nymph Poll. Should there be other ways to get them. https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=11795.msg145123#msg145123

So I say a resounding NO! But thats just me. And imo, if you just dont like the luck factor because you havent gotten any or very few, then you take this game too seriously.

When you say "spins" I think of the slot machine after a match.  You can't get Nymphs that way.

3 ways to get a Nymph: Oracle, tournament win, and Nymph's Tears effect.

Yes - but it should be very hard to get, just like they were intended to be.

Zanz wanted to have a "truly" Rare card, since the current Rare cards are no longer, er, Rare thanks to T50 farms. He thought up of Nymphs, but I personally think restricting it to ~once a month from Oracle to be way too restricting.

It should not be able to won from any form of "PvP", including T50. (the Relic system takes over) I think certain FG's should have a very, very small chance for you to spin one from them - but it shouldn't be in their decks. If level 5's aren't changed, then they should pack a decent chance of getting Nymphs, too. (kill two birds with one stone) The approximate chances of getting a Nymph from this method should be about the chance of getting it from Oracle - maybe once-a-month (using, say, a decent FG-killer), perhaps twice-a-month for level 5.

EDIT: I forgot about tournament win. But people who have never been on the forums or cannot use forums for whatever reason (horrible English, hate forums, co.cc websites blocked, etc.) should have some sort of fighting chance.

I'd like there to be another way, or at least make is slightly more likely to get nymphs than other cards from the oracle. Some of them are really powerful, so you're at a disadvantage in PvP if you don't have them.

I think there should be a way to get Nymphs, but the price should be something HUGE!
My idea is that you could "trade" 1 of each card from a color to get 1 Nymph. E.G. 15 unupped + 15 upped :entropy cards (worth about 20k coins) to get 1 :entropy Nymph. That way you'd think long and hard whether you really want the Nymph really that bad.  ;)

My answer is No.
But I support ways to get extra oracle spins, such as consume 3 relics for 1 extra spin and no more than 3 spins per day

That would mean at least 1-2 nymphs a day for any serious grinder. So its a resounding no. People not used to FG farming cannot possibly understand what amount of coins that are available to us users who do.
If i put my mind to in in a few hours i have 20k provided im blessed with a good string of FGs and fair luck. If i want a fully upped NEW 30 card deck with cards i don't previously own it usually takes me 1½-2 days and that's 45k.

I voted for yes, but in my opinion it should still require luck to get one.

Maybe giving spins from FGs a chance of ~5/10% or something like that to get a "Nymph Token" which matches the mark of the FG you won it from. The token would have require a high amount of money to upgrade it (25-...k electrum) to the unupgraded nymph.

To make it even harder this could only be only done for specific gods or "harder versions" with ~250 HP or similar stronger features which would appear randomly in the FG matchups.

I voted yes because I don't think powerful cards should be as difficult to get a these are.    I don't have a problem with super ultra-rare (whatever) cards they just shouldn't be required to have to be competitive.   They should be fun cards allowing for diversity not auto includes.

What kind of deck do you use? I thought my fg farming deck is pretty efficient but I ain't making 20k in a few hours.
