Epic Changes

1. Battle Event. Sound good!

2. New Type. wtf device reset?

Edit: I read this wrong I think. I thought they meant a new guild, oops. It's a new species, right? Which I think is nice!


3. Formation Changes. Good, if they don't screw it up!

4. 1 Year Anniversary. 1 million gold, a free 100 elixir, and (.)(.)?

In the pipe:

Bigger! Longer! More stamina! Call a nurse if you have a DS session lasting more than 4 hours.

The new type seems crazy to me. Why not build out the species for the types they already have first?

Will be interesting to see what comes of these changes...

Can't wait!!! I assume the items "in the pipeline" will come sometime after the "coming soon" items. Or is it the other way around? Anyway, way to go Ateam! So excited!

New formation changes....some new agility monsters maybe???? For the species that don't have them

I think some changes are in order. I just finished all of the top A teams for my guild, but really didn't feel like transitioning to an AA team. There isn't enough variety and prices are way way too high. So another new species is going to be cool. It would be nice to incorporate some new bonus's too. I always thought just the Winged bonus was lame. So maybe that's what was meant about creating new formations.

Concerning the battle event... check out DS's FB page to vote for one of four names they have planned for a future event. From the sound of the choices, my guess, just a guess, it might be for the aforementioned battle event.

Lol this is funny because prices are actually way way too low. Because of the market going down, AA's have never been more cheap. It's not that hard now to transition to AA's.

Cheap is a relative term. If you want a mixed guild/species AA team then yes. But it's still expensive to get a team that matches. But if someone wants to build a hybrid team it's great for them. I'm just a little obsessive with getting all of the bonuses.

Another thought I had is this. If Ateam starts a new species then we'll probably start getting that and only that as event rewards for a while. If you think about it each guild only gets 3 A, and 2 AA cards per event. So it's going to be a while before this new species is relevant. Or they might release a larger group of them at once in Dark Summons. Anyone have an ideas on how they'll implement this new species?

A better way to put it would be "Cheaper" to make a AA formation; rank rewards were once sold at 400-600 EP per AA, now you can get a AA+ for 150. It's definitely cheaper now than ever to make a AA+ formation, and even more-so considering the rate they are released now.

I'm not fully convinced it's a new species, the statement was "to challenge rancor/sin/tyranny" not aid them, I have a crazy idea that we will see a "neutral" guild come into play, though I am very likely wrong and they just did a poor job wording it, as usual.

Any guesses as to the new species?

Mecha?

Steampunk?

Aliens?

In regard to the form changes, I think it would be cool to have a support slot. A creature that doesn't count for anything other than adding it's skill bonus to the battle.
I imagine this would never happen as it would give AA+ teams a means to employ agility,revive,heal etc.
It would make things interesting though, and open up a lot of options for building forms.

i'm pretty sure it's like horg said, a new guild of monsters, even if it is not available for players to create accounts in. perhaps holy or divine or righteous or some such, given their statement about it challenging the sin, tyranny, and rancor. since all three current guilds are "evils" anything that would challenge them would probably be a "good", no?

also, have a look at the pics posted in the new type guess pool thread. their ids are 49001/59001, 49002/59002, and 49003/59003. for the uninitiated, id numbers are composed of a) rarity #(1-9), b) type number(0-2 sin, 3-5 covert, 6-8 psycho, and then there's 9 for A/+ rarity only), and c) a three digit monster number.

I'm curious to see if the amount of BP per battle is taken into consideration considering all of the cheap AA's they are flooding us with.



I hope they tell us weeks in advance of any drastic changes that are being made.
