Yes, the new update has indeed affected the game play and style. The meta has now changed which players will with time adjust to. But the one element I am sad to see leave is acing and speed clearing all due to the nerfing of unleashers'. I've been playing since 2015 and one thing all dedicated players aimed for was speed play and playability.

I reviewed some uploads by GW Sonata and Nextercise on DRV Elite and noticed that for the top tier difficulties you really just need max damage, max stats and buffing. The cycling of procs coupled with awakening burst will carry you through the battle.

I can see what Mynet was trying to do with this update and that was to bring back some of the old school nostalgia in gameplay. The skills bar really sits along side the lower proc rate cards form the past (15%-20%).

I also think Mynet should follow a similar style of gaming development that Blizzard is doing with Diablo 4....

1.) Announce a major evolutionary game change

2.) Put a test phase out (2-3 weeks)

3.) Receive feedback from players to identify what THIER PLAYERS are saying

4.) Based on that feedback reconfigure reasonable changes and push out the product.

I am in the U.S and I have some friends that have played the game as long as I have who are whales, played the new update and announced they were leaving the game until another game change takes effect.

Personally I am using this event to experiment and go back to traditional deck building to see if I can find some fun in playing again with this new Update. I want to be able to find that same excitement again I once had when I first saw the moon and an SR drop. Hopefully I can..

Ok so that's very understandable playing at Ultimate. As an update did give Extreme a try and was able to push through it. With dark I ran 4 teams utilizing current meta (burst / multi-atk). I use 4 sets of XUR Nagatsuki's and Astral Wing. All my Multi Atk cards were GLR and XLR. I am a very "safe" player so I typically don't push as much as I know I should. I ended up with just over the 950k.

I am a daily player BUT I don't get the opportunity to play ALL day. For the DRV I top out at ADVANCED only. Only way I have been able to obtain the DRV GLRs in the past is to play every full recovery of the DRV (5 BPs at a time). Doing that for the standard two weeks with 1 or 2 Hidden Lands would grant me the 950k. If you recall it was 650k when the event first started then Mynet probably figured out that not enough money would be spent needed to obtain the Special event card.

$30 is from the 27.99+tax for 3000 gems

Ok so looking at how the recovery time works vs points in ADVANCED.

3.5 hours to full recovery

Min / Max pts reward per 5 BP used 63k - 78k

Assuming you play every recovery, every day you 375k - 468k (without any hidden lands) At least this is how I am coming up with the numbers, could be wrong though.

So I suppose my question is are you playing Extreme or Ultimate? If you are playing Advanced I'd pay real folding money to know how you are getting 950k pt rewards in 6-7 days without spending money and not playing through the entire day.
