    You need 3 (blue) medals to upgrade one star on your main and all gold heroes. You need 2 medals on purple.

    Each upgrade comes with a chance of failure and if you fail, you will lose a star. There are "safe" stages (4,7,9 and 10) where you won't lose a star on failure. After reaching 6 stars you will lose 2 stars on failure.

    Losing stars makes no sense; it's just a way to make money. Things you have to pay real cash for should never ever set you back in the game.

    I agree, but you can get them (medals) for free from the Arena and Labyrinth at times.

    Still extremely frustrating to lose stars though.

    Put me in the camp of "one should NEVER lose stars" anymore so than one should lose equipment or a hero card. YOU BUY the damn thing they are YOURS. Sure, let the star upgrade fail but then stripping away already added stars - that's just naked mean spirited and predatory marketing. Never EVER seen this kind of exploitative screw the user game-play anywhere on the internet.

    Dude, seriously, all you do is complain. You disrespect other players, disrespect the Mods, and seem to think a winning business plan makes no sense. Yeah, it saucks losing stars, or not getting the hero you want, or not getting good runes. But UCool is a for-profit business, so OF COURSE the game has "spend more money" enticements built in. If people did not spend money, there would be no game for ANYONE to play.

    You don't get out much, do you???

    If the game and the business plan behind it upset you so much, you know you can just stop playing, right?

    Exactly why I'm quitting this game. Seriously, devs? Do you ever listen to the users, or only your revenue? Because guess what... a company that cares only about revenue ends up failing. Take for example the mortgage companies that inflated the housing industry until it crashed the entire stock market. Except there won't be any government bailout for you.

    I was on a spending plan of $100 a month for this game. Then things like ALWAYS losing stars and 90% of sanctification fails wore me down. I've started with 54 blue medals before, and wound up with less stars on my adamanti than when I started. That is just plain ridiculous. Making it hard so you can make money is reasonable, making it impossible doesn't make any sense. Now I won't spend any money on the game until they fix some of these problems.

    Eh, I wouldn't mind the failure to advance, but the loosing of a star is extremely painful. Not only for the loss of gems but for the loss of power. Had Saffron go from 3S to 2S to 3S to 2S to 1S and now she is back to 3S and I frankly doubt I am going to try to raise her stars again for a very long while. Which means I won't be spending gems for stars, at least not for her which costs the company money.
