That's because the Colosseum game mode really sucks. The reward you get from winning does not give you the necessary rewards to progress. I certainly hope this is not the way you plan on bringing new characters into the game by forcing us to play this unreasonable game mode. I think nearly every player who has been playing this game since the beginning agrees with me and you people at Capitalist Games/xEAx need to get your stuff together and get on board with making players happy again. In the first coliseum event I did not run it free to play and got all of the characters seven starred in relic leveled. In this second coliseum event I am running it for the most part free to play with a small amount of spending. I have gotten the three characters so far up to five stars. But the rewards from the event won't let me progress any further without spending more money. Something is wrong with that from a player's point of view. I'm sure sitting up there on your high horse collecting all of our cash You are smiling ear to ear like a Cheshire cat. Rubbing your greedy paws together wondering what else you can do to us to take our money. Have been recently considering putting my account up for sale. A 14 million GP account might fetch a nice amount of money.

CG does not care about losing long term loyal players. They want new money, new players who have to spend to catch up and spend on the new ERA content. And from my shard point of view, 12 random knuckleheads just fell for it and bought their way to 7* / Era level 80 on all three toons. Plus all the people who just spent on the Merc Tokens and LSBs. CG could lose 100,000 F2P and care less.
