one thing that me and my step dad agree on that would be a cool thing for the game is training points. we think that they should sell training points for crowns or a lot of gold. tell me what you think of this, would love to hear your opinions. plz be nice though.

I don't think we should do that. If that ended up happening it would be total chaos trust me.

No, this is not well thought-out.

Training points are limited so wizards do not have access to every spell. There's a reason for that.

If everyone could just farm gold and buy all the spells in all the schools, then there would be no reason for anyone to play any school besides Life, or Ice.

Everyone would have the same wizard, essentially.

Except for people who can't or won't spend crowns or hours farming for gold to do this. They become a second class citizen in a two-tier system.

KI knows this and doesn't want to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs - replay value. If yo need to make a new wizard to access new spells, then you're essentially replaying the game.

But if your first wiz could buy most of the key spells of every school, why would you ever bother replaying the lower worlds on a new wiz?

While the idea may seem like a good one, it then makes the game a pay to win game. And I do not agree with that. You can see the gold prices compared to crowns; a pretty big difference.

We have plenty of opportunities to earn training points; no more are needed.
