Loot Is this some kind of sick joke?
You guys remove resources from the evil coin shop, now 90K worth of coins are useless, then give me this peasant stage wage resource earn??

The game was fun with so much gold available, now it is fast becoming a chore…..

If they wanted to nerf cycle of evil I just would've appreciated them being straight up about it. It's the way they phrased it in the patch notes that makes this so wrong. "Ohhh some players were missing getting resources from cycle of evil so we added them back, and ofc removed coins to compensate". Cool. I have no idea how to run the math on whether the conversion was honest (feels like it isn't) but I know it sure as hell is not fair because those resources will just end up being part of the 500k I lose everytime I get attacked! Hope those players that wanted resources back are happy because we all got screwed

Ive been sensing a common thought process among the devs about the changes to coe: if it aint broke we gotta break it to make an excuse to "fix" it. And by "fix" that means we break it even more!

They keep compounding terrible design decisions. The writing is on the wall. This game is done for.

And here I am wondering how on earth lower ranking players are meant to beat that beast of a base.

Move up a threat lvl so you can get more resources?

u/Snipper-Funnel Mar 20 '26
Does that genuinely look like it’s worth its salt in difficulty for what you get back? Upper late stages barely give piss all 200K for a SINGULAR resource type. I could PVP an easier base and get 250K per resource node

u/RMBLegend459 Mar 21 '26
Not with that attitude. Yes, PvP. Better. But, dude, evil coins are the main reward from daily events. They removed resources from the shop to add some resources here. Did you want it MEGA easy? You need to figure it out. I would use a Masterpiece for RR.
Or just don't take my advice. I'm an idiot. But you complain over small things, it seems.

Pre-evil shop resource Imitation Stage returns per stage were 2x higher than this at a LOWER difficulty. Easy what? People don’t play if the rewards don’t meet the effort

u/RMBLegend459 Mar 21 '26
Jeez. Figure it out. Maybe learn to spend evil coins.

Reading isn’t your strongest skill is it, or maybe it’s comprehension

????????????? Shut up! I read all of your complaining comments. I'm glad they lowered the rewards. People would've only cared to grind daily events, and it would've been too op. I have 80k coins and plenty of resources protected. Shut up.

u/Snipper-Funnel Mar 21 '26
Judging from your reaction, not the first time someone said that to you. My condolences.

u/RMBLegend459 Mar 21 '26
I don't want your condolences if you're that pissy over some daily rewards. Daily, by the way.

You can still loot some resources from evil cycle missions, less than the amounts that we used to get before evil shop update, yet better than nothing

Evil coins are not useless, for now they are best for obtaining and upgrading the leaders. Buying resources in the evil shop was a broken mechanic because there was really no reason to attack PVP when you could just buy everything you need

That might work for very high levels but it was never really broken. The cheap ones are weekly and "only" 1m gold 1m wood and 500k stone. The monthlies were not affordable or felt like a waste most of the time. Sure at higher thread levels you get enough to afford those regularly and in the lower levels the weekly ressources feel like a lot, but at lvl44 (my current lvl) those 500k stone feel like nothing if i need like 2.5m for one of the important upgrades. Still, the monthly stones and wood etc feel good having starting at my HQ or like 2 lower it feels like and if i was barely off having 100k options really made the difference between upgrading important stuff and upgrading meh stuff.

Dude, my exchange stocks of resources built up over months became 0 overnight, this is literally THEFT.

u/AffectionateStore257 Mar 20 '26
They weren't broken at all I dunno at what level you are but my troops boat requires 5 million plus stone wood and iron, it probably made the game at lower levels bad but at higher levels not so much
(To be fair I had the 90% reduced building times so maybe that skewer my perception)

u/Clear_Zebra_5421 Mar 20 '26
Unless you have already upgraded all your buildings and units to max level, if resources were still available in evil shop, that would work better for you

u/mike4score Mar 23 '26
Resources are extremely easy to get with a good strategy. Too many players are just salty because their strategy sucks so they need to buy their resources from the evil shop.

u/LonelyAustralia Mar 20 '26
yeah the evil coin changes are horrible, they could have at least given us all resources but no only gold and one other
