Good Morning Forum Community,
I have noticed quite a few arena threads or posts discussing the arenas in general over the last little while so I decided to inquire myself.
Now, let me start by saying that I have been playing for about 5 weeks now, just receiving my first Merlin's Dragon a few days ago. As everyone is aware, when you begin the game and are completing quests / achievements, it is quite easy to build up SS / Arena Tix / Blue & Yellow Pots. I began playing arenas when I had accumulated about 400 arena tix and I believe that I had just achieved an S rank deck. My current deck is an entry level SS with stats roughly at 205k / 52.5k with mainly subpar cards / combos.
Over the last 2-3 weeks or so, my tix had dropped to about 50, especially after the Maiden Exemplar and Gawain's Guard arenas back to back about 1 week ago. I am currently at about 130 tix and I am finding myself passing on most arenas these days. I usually skip all Super arenas but I am now skipping arenas that I participated in 2-3 weeks ago due to a lack of tix. At this stage in my deck, the highest streak I have obtained is 67 and that was simply to obtain the achievement. Most arenas, I usually win the first 30-40 battles, then I become less patient and fight players with similar or slightly superior stats. Their skills proc, mine do not, I lose, no biggie. I have tried using streak bonuses but it really doesnt make sense to use them at this point so I will be saving mine for once my deck is a little more complete.
While I understand that Kabam doesn't want to flood the market with arena tickets, I would like to see something done as players with middling decks likely have to take a good amount of time off arenas to regain some tix as we expend a good number just getting mediocre rewards. A solution may be to increase low might arena tix rewards. I am not a fan of using 10-15 tickets to get from 1300-1400 might and the reward being 2 tickets. Another solution may be to add ticket awards to ranks 50-100, 101-250 and even 251-500. Nothing major, some modest numbers. Other ideas I had involve increasing arena tix drops from father mal, exploring, etc and perhaps changing the daily 2* and gold rewards to more arena tix rewards.
Now, I'd like to hear some opinions on this issue as I could be way off base here. Aaron, if you have any insight or anything to add or shoot down, that would be most welcomed. I am starting to think that arenas are fully geared towards completed decks where players can fully utilize the tickets by using streak bonuses. As most of us are aware, the arenas are a big part of the game.
Again, if anyone has anything to add or some tips for me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
