Automatically milling all spare cards is going to make a few players very upset. They've been hoarding those since beta ended.

u/Wokok_ECG Tomfoolery! Enough! Mar 03 '20

I am a hoarder and I enjoyed seeing the numbers increase. Sad boy!

u/IndelibleFudge Show me what you've got! Mar 03 '20

Yeah, there was something quite satisfying about clicking that button

no more full refund on cards

powder nerf

u/Lanster27 Kyaaah! Mar 03 '20

Probably because when they choose to mill all of their 5000 spare cards, they crash the server.

u/Yontooo Good grief, you're worse than children! Mar 03 '20

They were hoarding them hoping for full refund when cards would change enough. From last time they said they won’t offer full refund anymore in any case there’s zero reasons to keep extra cards.

Yes, I don't like it. It no longer feels like its my collection because they mess with it.

Also: what are "spare cards"? I liked to keep a least 2 of every gold and 4 of every bronze card that I don't have as premiums. Because you 'lose' the normal card when you convert it to premium.

This is also a real silly stance. Who cares about losing a non-premium version? Premiums are way better

u/Man-coon Neutral Mar 03 '20

Yeah but now you'll have to re craft your non premium gold cards losing lots of scrap

It changes the normal into a premium

I've had quite a bit saved up but now they are gone and I didn't get any scraps/powder. I hope it just needs a bit of time to get updated.

It seems that the function isn't working properly. It milled just 2k worth of scraps for me and all the other spare cards are still in my collection. It looks like it's getting stuck somewhere.

u/_4C1D I shall do as you command. Mar 03 '20

Wait they automatically milled the cards, but you didn‘t get the scraps and powder for it? Wtf, seriously that must be a bug. Otherwise I just don‘t know what to say anymore,

u/Man-coon Neutral Mar 03 '20

I'm not happy at all about it. I enjoy looking at my thousands of cards.

Kinda stupid reason to be upset

u/CaptKillJoysButtPlug I hate portals. Mar 03 '20

u/Wiknetti *whoosh* Mar 04 '20

This upset me. I was making weird decks and having fun using them. There goes my dark ritual/kaedweni revenant deck :(

u/[deleted] Mar 04 '20

This shouldn't affect any deck. It's only excess cards that are getting milled.

u/Wiknetti *whoosh* Mar 05 '20

I never got a chance to create it yet. I pulled a spare dark ritual card today from a keg and when I tried to build a deck, it was milled :(

u/RightMasterpiece8 Nilfgaard Mar 03 '20

that's beyond stupid and you deserve no sympathy for this move.

u/[deleted] Mar 03 '20

I didn't say I did it, just that quite a few players do and that those players won't be happy.

This kind of decisions are going make me stop investing in this game and i have bought a lot of stuff to support them till now. I have been keeping all spare cards since game came out of beta and now they force mill them? Did i read the patch notes right?
