I think you should be able to reset your training points using gold and do everything with gold, the prices are outrageous as someone said and not every has that kind of money.

True! I feel like why put gold in the game if we cant use it for things as simple as earning training points back. Set it to a sertain amount like 10,000 or 20,000 it'll take time for some to get that amount up but it's better than feeling bad about not being able to buy crowns like everyone else is doing..

I see the reason for making buyback be crowns based but maybe set it to where you can buyback points one by one with crowns or all at once. The problem with doing with gold would be the then for to easy means to create enchanted cards of whatever a player wants.

Not if they make it really expensive.

No, because it's used on the training points you get. Thus, you can't change your main school (unless you can I don't know as I haven't done it yet.)

I definitly would say some of it might be expensive but you know they are a company and they need money to pay employees and keep the game running the idea with crowns was that you could get better stuff if you gave more and supported the game more by paying and thats how every game is i definitly would like to see prices go down but that money is what keeps the game running

They could make it like the pet hatching, so the only time you could afford it would be when your a grand master.

Saying that KI has to charge for everything to keep things running is a weak arguement. Most of us pay for subscriptions to play the 90% of the game that is unavailible for free.

Buying retraining with gold would actually help to retain some players who may feel they have made mistakes with their characters, but can't afford to be nickled and dimed over everything.

They could even use retraining as an excuse to add some more content. Have a mission arc that players have to complete and they get their training points back to reuse as they like. Just no more stupid, overly long, tower missions with cheating enemies.

The problem with the current system is that they are focused on getting more money to the point that they are sacrificing fun, the good will of their subscriber base, and most importantly, player happiness. A good example is the way the pet system is structured. It's a massive grind, and it seems designed to be frustrating enough that people will snap and spend money. Add the random, uncertain nature of pet talents, and things begin to add up very quickly.

The short version is that they are so focused on money that peoples' enjoyment of the game as a whole is suffering.
