I love the new Ultimate Arena. Finally, arena rewards are to be fought for now! And no more Heaven's Palace rigging.

Agree with Herby.

It will be interesting to see how the HP turns out now.

I was getting tired of powering down... :)

There will always be a better mount in the future.

Even other MMOs have this.

Just accept it and use the new mount asap.

Finally, it's time to once again use strategy in the HP, and not just finishing everything in 15mins of clicking on "ok".

I hope they increase HP's rewards.

But... if there will always be new mounts, shouldn't we wait for the newest? It takes way too long to gather up a billion or two coins.

WHY??? so few will play it, so few will be able to pass enough levels to win anything. Seriously, strategy means **** if you are 1/2 or more of the power of the top player.

Hopefully HP selects 10 players at random from the top 30 in ultimate arena. That would be an improvement to HP, as super powerful people from the top 4 or 5 won't always show up.

Total crap getting farmed by all the cashers now,never going to get any gems from arena cos we got 2 accounts thats manned 24/7 so no chance of anything.

Great for you and handful of others. Bad for 90% of the server population who won't even bother with it any more...unless players find another new way of rigging it.

Well a full armoured GargIT, Omni and Maynon on our server means approximately 1, possibly 2 players will complete it. Most can't get past Garg or Maynon at roughly Bronze even if powered up. HP will die out very quickly if it can't be rigged any more.

True.

Except there are exceptions as the mount system was only introduced a few weeks ago into this game and has not reached steady state in game maturity. In fact what it seems like is a "not so well thought out" system being further corrected. In which case they need to provide a remediation path for players who invested gems to the mounts.

Otherwise it is a throw away investment for the person who spent a lot to get the top mount up and they are then left with no choice but to abandon the money already invested which is not wise for Tynon to do from both marketing and game trust perspective with the players. Bottom line, you don't screw your top customer and need to make it right.
