Grinding is COOL!! YAY!!! https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=7816.msg87606#msg87606

I just realised something that practically ruined the whole experience of this game for me.

I played a pvp game and by chance i met a friend as an opponent and he won the game.
I had 4 upgraded queens in my deck and he won one EXCEPT he won it NON UPGRADED.
What does that mean?

That means that the creator of this game atually endorses mindfreakingnumbing GRINDING that pathetic excuse for a game that is FALSE GODS!!
I mean playing with an actual HUMAN OPPONENT is considered a lesser achievement than beating a  horribly unbalanced and BORING "AI".

What is this ,world of warcraft ?

If you did it like that getting upped cards would be extremely easy just keep trying to vs a friend in PvP then when you do you win an upped card.

Im just saing that the ungodly amount of time a player needs to spend for upgraded cards is not worth it. The game should be about strategy but actually 99%of the games are spent getting the cards..
and i doubt that among so many players it would be actually viable to spam pvp jfor friends to farm.. really..

I think PVP2 you should be able to win upped cards...if someone wants to sacrifice their score and electrum for a friend so be it...most of the PVP2 games are legit and can take longer and/or be harder than FGs

The only reason there longer is the server time.

Winning that Firefly Queen unupgraded is better because upgraded cards are supposed to be HARD to obtain. If I could win an upgraded card ever PVP match I played, I would most likely be bored of the game.

Playing a human opponent that draws one card, has 100 hp, has a mark that produces one quanta each turn, and can only have six identical cards in each deck is a bit easier than an AI that draws two cards, has 200 hp, has a mark that produces THREE quanta each turn, and can have up to twelve identical cards in a deck.

I'm sorry you think of this game this way.

Every game requires some kind of effort to get better or become better "geared" or have a more efficacious arsenal of equipment. 99% of the games grinding, though? Gross overstatement there. I play false gods for fun and take them in small doses, and you can get plenty of money that way, while playing some t50 and pvp. Only twice have i sat there and farmed FGs for, say, 30k electrum at a time. To me, part of the achievment is knowing that i put in the time and effort to make a better deck not only in my strategy, but in my effort to attain the cards themselves. If you don't like that aspect of the game, duel and play pvp1.

Also, it would be extremely viable to farm cards with your friends... make a deck with 18 pillars and 6x of 2 upgraded cards. Just alternate games with your friend going into pvp2 at the same time(its easy to synchronise that via instant messenger or phone), and just taking turns winning cards quickly. That would totally ruin the game.
