Do we get too many score points from Arena? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=28986.msg370006#msg370006

I think I got ca 20.000 points in the time after the last patch. Each reward of  :electrum is also an equivalent reward of score. Especially in Platinum and Gold, you can get big amounts of score in one win. If you compare this to FGs: you get max 120 there for a win (although you get upgraded cards)
I think score rewards in Arena are too much. What do you think?

I agree that the score increase is a lot bordering too much. I think i've gained over 30k since arena started.

On the otherhand players would rarely play Platinum and Gold had significantly lowered rewards. Gold is about Fake God Level toughness while Platinum is beyond that even. So I say no (and like you said, you can gain upgraded cards from Fake Gods and you can only get it after winninging 3/4 matches in Gold/Platinum

I have played Arena for nearly 3 weeks - mostly gold/platinum league. Moved from nearly 5k 9silver league) points to 92k points (platinum league). :)

Imho, big score rewards in Arena are good - FG give upgraded cards, Arena gives gold and score. And Arena is more difficult.

Yeah... I'm going to agree it gives too much score.
I joined after arena was released. I have a score of 81k, which is the upper end of lvl 58 in arena.
And I managed to get here while only having 73 upgraded cards. I've never sold an upgraded card, and I only sell cards I have more than 6 of.
It seems that score can be gained far too fast.

As score now actually has a purpose other than bragging rights, I find a better way to grind score great.


But I'd rather ask someone with a large amount of score, on how they feel about it. (400k+)

Well I agree that players are earning way to much score from arena and it's like a slap to the face for those that wasted so much time before to gain 400k+ score.

Even though I'm just at 380k, I totalle agree with Wolf here.
Score doesn't matter that much anymore. But by keeping this up, everyone will be in plat league in no time. Alll the time I invested before Arena to get up there has been useless now.
