The only question is, will we ever get to 5% or more players end tech?
A lot of new players join this game, but give up midway, due to several reasons that have all been given as feedback. (combat change, tournament not fun cause of it, adventure clickfest, too many events, orcs suck,....)
those who didnt give up fast, i often see those giving up in orc or dragon chapter.
Ive made a suggestion in the past before, to help new players catch up faster (somthing like 5% free portal boost for each chapter before the last), but nobody but me liked the idea
i dont know the new range of the sentient goods, but i think theres best no range limit at all, tradable with everyone.
