The only issue I had with Oddments was the number you could get from 1 key if you get the right X thing. I got 7,500 from 1 key not too long ago.

I had over 150,000 oddments a while ago. Now down to 50,000.

We were getting too many.

I think this balance needs a chance to see how it goes. I'm not convinced yet if it's good or bad. Need time to digest it and see how it goes. Early days yet as it's only been out an hour. ;) Comprehensive Account Security

oddments were ruining the game, i had over 200k at one point. and i dont buy keys. its just insane

im not a fan of mtx stuff so for me id rather they were just removed lmao

there were people after lamps could be used on arch. were using the oddments to get 99 arch from 1 in matter of days if they had enough oddments saved. its just silly how they were used.

Yes but the thing is, im more than certain that was a "purple"/"very rare" reward, thus doesnt happen all that often.

Thus its rarity balanced it out.

So im in the mindset that doesnt approve of this much either.

Non Mtx players get a chance to get a legendary pet, something that LITERALLY means that they are on par with MTX players in many in game activities where the pet is useful and you're against that? EL MAYO!

Lemme guess, you used to wait until keys/lamps/stars were on their best discount then buy them out until you hit your daily limit? What's your gripe here? Not enough free/easy XP in the game? You do realize they lowered the overall prices of those things?

I'm going to miss buying stars for 60 oddments, or however much they were at 75% off.
That said, it's probably for the best. I do feel like it was a little over-powered... Bob says:
