Greetings Commanders,
We have a couple of small, but significant changes heading your way next week, but wanted to give you all a heads up so you can prepare and adjust!
First, we’re going to be making a major change to Loyalty. What exactly? Well, we’re removing it completely.
Starting Wednesday, June 14th, in order to simplify our economy and make the game more accessible to all players, we will be removing Loyalty as a resource. To accommodate this change, we will be making the following adjustments:
We wanted to give you all a heads up on this so you won’t have to donate any more Loyalty to your treasury than you need, and can choose to purchase some Alliance Crystals while you still can.
Additionally, we’re going to be making another couple changes to Alliance Help Requests as they pertain to Mission Energy:
That’s it for now Commanders! We have a lot more cool improvements coming your way with our 2.0 Release, which lands next week. More information will be available on that early next week, so keep your eyes open for that!

- Fulfilling an Alliance mate’s Help Request will now award 100 Gold for each Alliance mate you help with Mission Energy, and 50 Gold for each Bot you help in Arenas. Maximum of 3500 Gold Daily.
- Alliance Missions will no longer require Loyalty as a Map Cost
- The Alliance Crystal will now be free to collect on a 24 hour timer, much like the Free Daily Crystal
- All Loyalty will be converted to Gold
We wanted to give you all a heads up on this so you won’t have to donate any more Loyalty to your treasury than you need, and can choose to purchase some Alliance Crystals while you still can.
Additionally, we’re going to be making another couple changes to Alliance Help Requests as they pertain to Mission Energy:
- Increasing the frequency of when you’re allowed to request Help for Mission Energy, so you can now request energy every hour, instead of every 6 hours.
- You will be granted 3 energy simply by requesting help, so you can take another step or two, and possibly complete a fight right away, rather than waiting for Alliance Mates to fulfill your request.
That’s it for now Commanders! We have a lot more cool improvements coming your way with our 2.0 Release, which lands next week. More information will be available on that early next week, so keep your eyes open for that!

Loyalty/Alliance crystals are useless. Get rid of those, bring back mission crystal shards YOU CAN DOOO EEEET!!!
I sincerely hope you do not torpedo the extra gold income by increasing the cost of alliance missions now that loyalty is not required. This would completely defeat the benefit you have created.
Alliance Mission Gold costs for The Shattered Lands Map will not be changing at all, but they will no longer require Loyalty. Keep in mind that the Map rewards will no longer include Loyalty and the Gold Rewards will not be changed.
As for Forgotten Ruins... Those are changing, but for the better. There will no longer be any cost for any Difficulty level of the Forgotten Ruins map at all!
Maybe just 1 loyalty for 1 gold?
Miike, can you talk about other things that are planning to be simplified?
In the interest of "simplifying our economy and making the game more accessible to all players" can I suggest changing all the 2* bot shard/crystal rewards to Premium Bot Crystal rewards? The chance for a 3* is so small anyway it really seems unnecessary having a 2* only crystal. It's not really a huge benefit to players and at least they have a chance of something good... or make the frequency of 2* crystals far more frequent, I get them far less than premiums.
Can the help button be changed to 'help all' so we only have to press it once instead of 20 times?
Can we instead have the Daily Crystals to regenerate like how Alliance Crystals had been regenerating (daily at a fixed time), rather than 24-hours from when you collect it? It is not always possible to collect the xstals at the same minute everyday and this means most players would probably lose a couple of xstals eventually (worse for those with irregular play time)
