CG Broke the Social Contract with Conquest. It's Time OR Money, CG
What has it always been with hoarding/resource management games? You can spend a bunch of time and grind it out and keep decent pace with spenders, or you can spend and get ahead. Don't want to farm a node a bunch? Buy the marquis pack. Want to have a char at 7* before it's farmable? You can buy/use crystals. Whale hard and you can have the char to use for few months or so until others can farm them. Don't have time for the hundreds of battles per GAC? You can buy those rewards (iirc, or close enough anyway).
And then there's Conquest. Don't have time for hundreds and hundreds of extra battles, on top of all the other things (TW, TB, Raids, GC, GB's, regular farms, etc etc) to do in the game? Well, then you can...just not have chars/ships you will need for the new shiny. No time? Just spend money and get...quicker stamina regen and a disque or whatever the $40 pack gets you? Spend the $10 and get...a few extra shards? Spending surely would advance you far enough to red crate without spending all that screentime doing the same battles over and over, assuming you have the teams, right? But nah. There's nothing for someone with money but no time. This is outrageous. It's unfair! It's worse than sand imo. TakeMyMoney.gif
