As all of us are eagerly waiting for the new reward systems in Splinterlands and how it will impact in the reward system?
Today I am going to discuss my own feeling about the new reward system. First of all here I will focus only the information that is published by the Splinterlands and I will provide my thoughts on it.
Why I am so excited about the new Rewards system?
- First thing that I love about rewarding the consistent players who love the game, not just place on the top of the league and grab the daily Quest and Seasonal loot chests. Now everything will be based on your number of your battle and the quality of the rewards will be depending on your league which is an awesome criteria for rewarding the most regular players.
You can see the qualitative impact is going change exponentially in higher leagues like DIAMOND or CHAMPION. Specially the Token Multiplier is 24 times higher in Champion with compare to the Silver league league, and 6 times higher than the Gold league.
So, the bot farming will be diminished significantly in the aspects of killing the reward pool and furthermore the SPS reward pool will more safer in this new reward system.
In addition to the Token Multiplier, Chance of getting packs and Legendaries is also significantly higher in upper leagues.
But my concern is as there are many players who rents significant portion of their card collections, and new reward system will increase the renting price significantly, so may be many players will stop playing or many multiaccount holders will play less number of their account. Though the situation is still to be monitored after the employment of the new rewards.
- Another idea to make the reward system functional is the Reward Shares which are earned by the ranked battle wins and determine the seasonal and daily rewards in addition to DEC rewards. For detail about the Reward shares, you can see the full details here
- The most exciting matter is the end of the bot farming with the starter cards. I think this one will bring a revolutionary change in the game economy!
The less number of BOTs the more rewards for the genuine players.
The rewards share per starter cards will drops the rewards ratio significantly, which will make the players to buy all the useful cards and the cards price will increase significantly.
As a result, players will buy the CL packs faster and the upcoming updates will be sooner in the games with the booming economy.
But there is another concern from my side, with the tons of new cards in the market, all of the monsters will not be in the race, some important and useful cards will skyrocket but some will be grounded badly! This can be crucial for the total market trend.
My favorite change in the Reward system: DAILY FOCUS
In the ne reward system is the revised DAILY QUEST as THE DAILY FOCUS.
Once in every 24-hour period, players can complete a Daily Focus that is assigned to them at random rotation and will focus on a specific Element (Splinter.)
The rewards for completing the Daily Focus are given in the form of loot chests, with the number of chests earned depending on the total amount of reward shares they have earned from ranked battle.
Total 30 loot chests can be earned for each daily focus for all the players in any league from Bronze to Champion.
The chests of daily focus rewards are the same as the chests of the season rewards.
champion chests will have significantly larger and higher value loot than lower leagues such as Bronze league chests.
The type of loot chests will be earned as the daily focus is based on the highest league achieved at any point in the previous ranked play season.
Now any player can get up to the equal number of chests in any league which is awesome!
The more you play the more daily loot chests!
Here, I have a concern, if the BOT farmers managed to reach at higher league and after that just play to get more and more loot chests without any CP requirement, then the BOT farming can evolved with killing of the huge portion of the loot chests and that can affect the game economy.
Though the required R-shares can be an obstacle but it needs further monitoring after the employment of the new reward system.
The Season Rewards
Among all the players the season rewards is the most waited events at the end of the season and a huge amount of of rewards are earned by players at the end of each Splinterlands season which is usually 15 days.
Total 150 loot chests can be earned in a season at the end.
Any player in any league from Bronze to Champion have the same opportunity to earn 150 of loot chests. Though as usual, the Champions loot chest will be more valuable.
The type of loot chest that each player will earn in the current season is based on the highest league achieved at any point in the previous ranked season. For example, if a player reached the Diamond league at any point in the previous season (meaning they achieved the required rating, the required collection power, and chose to advance to that league) then in the current season they will earn Diamond loot chests no matter what league they are currently playing in.
I have totally mixed thoughts about this part of the announcement! If the team is working for demolishing the bot farming and inspired the people to have less accounts, then how this can be addressed? At any point, if you managed to reached higher league you will get the loot chests according to that highest point which can be boom or boon for the reward system. It will allow more bot farming in the following ways-
- You can sacrifice your DEC earning with lot of loot chests of higher leagues by renting cards and playing 1/2 days to collect all the required ratings, CP and R-shares!
Conclusion
In conclusion, the most exciting fact is about the equalization in the reward earning from the loot chests.
DEC and SPS earning will be the differentiator among leagues as any player can managed to reach DIAMOND by higher cards and get the DIAMOND level rewards in current season.
Though the R-shares will be an important factors for rewarding the players but still there are so many underlying concerns about the BOT farming, more easier to obtain more loot chests from higher leagues which can affect the game economy!
