If you read my post it says replace the spins with AI 3 spins. As to T50 spins they are spun from the deck used in the battle thats why Rare Farms work, so you need to understand how the mechanics of it go before you say remove rares from spins.

As to capitalize, in most forums any over large font is considered shouting so thankyou for your concern about capitalizing but thats not relevent.

Of course I know that. T50 spins are spun from the deck used by the player, but if the player uses a Nymph, why wouldn't the Nymph be in the spin? Because they are replaced by another card that is sell-able but in no way useful. The same can be used here. If rare cards must be removed from all spins, including FG, then let there be a quest where you can gain a rare with a different spin mechanism, and you get one spin per FG kill. There would be a small chance to get any rare in the first place. Either this, or just have a seperate spinner for FG kills for the rares the FG has.

I don't know what strange forums you go to, but I personally am a member of probably a few dozen forums, and in not one of the forums do large letters mean shouting. They usually point out words of importance- in fact, even Scaredgirl uses it that way in her guides. (go take a look at one of her guides: if you think large letters mean shouting, then you will think that Scaredgirl loves to shout every other paragraph.) Shouting is almost always used by using either capital letters or lots, lots, and lots of exclamation points.

considering u all no what all the rare cards are, i think theres no need to change the way it already is o.o...i think the system is fine..more kewl rares like octopus would be cool

Any other rare cards will be discovered and posted on wiki soon enough anyways.

As for grinding rares, there's always a better quest system...

Ok OK no need to yell.

We could remove spins and yes that makes it a little easier to keep rares but personally I don't like the idea of no rewards. SO my proposal would be to keep spins but have them as generic spins (same as you get from AI 3) that way you still get a reward but the farms don't become an issue anymore.

Thanks for your input but as said, no need to yell.

Scyther

I would capitalize words if I was shouting.


I made it larger so my post wouldn't be lost. And did you even read my entire post? I put remove rare cards from spins. Kind of like how nymphs are removed. Nothing else would be moved, possibly elites, but idk.

To me all the options except for removing spins from top 50 are just a temporary bandaid and might make things worse. Pretty much like how the US put laws on slavery to balance things out as a bandaid, but the topic of slavery keeps reappearing in Congress. The same goes for here. Pretty soon this topic will reoccur even if it is fixed using one of these solutions, so my answer is:

Remove Rares from spins in top 50 and PvP.

There could still be regular or maybe even elite cards in the spins, but I believe that removing rares would allow them to be truly rare without having to worry about putting a balancing bandaid.

Even in my rainbow deck, Miracles are VERY useful. First of all, combined with Empathetic/Feral Bonds, you can get easy EM's. Secondly, they have saved me when playing level 3+'s, especially when combined with 1 or 2 FFQ's.

DON'T SELL.

Nymphs are rare; no matter what nymph you get, you will probably cherish it forever in your collection as a novelty.

And Black Nymphs are also very, very useful. Keep it, you lucky man

I'm probably just putting it in a farm deck. Relics are good to sell.

I probably won't use it in my deck, personally, but who knows?

I used to win quite a good number of cards as a noob. Now my income usually comes from level 3 elemental masteries. It's sad. Personally I think you get worse draws as your score increases, but only Zanz would know for sure.

I won a Black Nymph a while back- I was indecisive whether I should use it or sell it. I was about to sell it when I saw this thread. All I can say is I'm keeping it after I read the posts. ^__^

Def. Oty, getting your first upgrade is something you should be proud of, not a barely noticeable upgrade like an hourglass

Nope, upgraded hourglasses are extremely useful. Not only does it allow you to use hasten earlier, it also allows you to play more than one and USE more than one.

Nice screenshot.

Go get your revenge

I probably need some quantum towers and LOTS of electrums for that. ^__^
