ELEMENTAL SOUL SHARDS
Elemental Soul Shards are a new form of Currency arriving in AniGame! When fully fleshed, they serve the following functions:
-Used in enhancements as fodder
-Allows the players to "disenchant" cards that returns a number of Soul Shards based on their rarity. This can be used as a reroll feature!
-Used to upgrade your cards from 1 rarity or another
-Used to craft cards of certain rarities
One of the other main purposes is to reduce the ID of cards, as a lot of the IDs are increased by Common/Uncommon fodders that will be discarded anyways - as well as increasing the efficiency of the database backing AniGame.
Another one of the main purposes of Elemental Soul Shards is to introduce a new currency that can do things gold cannot - playing a crucial role in the market.
The ONLY usage of Soul Shards FOR NOW is to replace fodders - so 2 new commands so far:
.souls/shards/soulshards -> shows you the # of Elemental Soul Shards you have
.soulenh <inventory id> -> works just like massenhance, but uses Elemental Soul Shards instead, and there's no filters as they're all the "same" fodders. There's no current way to set a limit to the amount of soul shards you want to use (it'll always use MAX soul shards, or until it helps your card reach MAX LEVEL), but I don't think it'll be necessary.
Soul Shards will be dropped from all "mass" C/UC/R producers, mainly Stages + Raids. You will not gain copies of cards anymore, but instead an equivalent in shards.
Soul Shards give 200 EXP per shard, which is 2X the amount if you were enhancing with "different cards", and 2/3X the amount compared to "same cards." It GENERALLY should feel roughly the same as before (if not better), and I'll adjust # of shards dropped to be lower/higher if it's way off.
Everything else will be added in the near future. It'll take some testing to know the numbers.
Cards will still be able to drop normally in claims, packs, etc... as well as the first time you complete a stage (you will gain a rare copy of the card), so I do not expect them to be scarce at all.
MASS PURGE OF CURRENT CARDS (C/UC/R)
In order to help and support AniGame's growth, there will be a purge of the current cards. It's not something that I want to do, but it helps AniGame in the long run.
There will be more information regarding this a bit later, nearing the purge times, but READ THIS CAREFULLY:
EVENT CARDS will not be touched at all (any rarity).CARD IDS UNDER 1,000,000 will not be touched (CARD ID NOT INVENTORY)FAVORITED CARDS will not be touched.
If you would like to keep any before the purge occurs, please favorite all the cards you wish to do so. However, I don't plan on adding a mass fav just now, as the main point is to reduce the number of cards, so I don't want everyone just favouriting their entire inventory... but rather choose cards that are special to keep.
As I've stated, MORE INFORMATION will be available regarding this. I'll make sure to be completely transparent with everyone as well as the dates, so don't worry.
