My relic Ezra lost 8 levels and Merrin 7 as was foretold.. One would expect fair compensation as I bought many crystals, conquest passes, and calendars to have these characters right. I received minimal compensation ( a rate of about 1/2 the cost ) as many of you have. You have better odds from the casino, rather then CG screwing you over.

Are you sure you didnt just click on the inbox message & use the materials on other toons? If so, you should provide your ally code so they can fix the problem.
His "point" was that he spent a bunch of money and/or other resources to obtain the relic mats and all they gave him back was the relic mats, not the means he used to obtain them.

What does it matter how he managed to get the mats, the "point" is that he received the mats back so he could put Ezra & Merrin back at the levels he had them at.
Ya sound sarcastic to me, I didn't spew it, I just explained it, thus the scare quotes on "point". Sounds like I think his take is bad, as it seems you do too.
I beg to differ, Qui - their relic investment is rebalanced, but any further resources like crystals or money are lost in the void. I can understand why people are upset and sympathise, though I haven’t been affected by this issue myself as both Ezra and Merrin are G12.
What on earth do you mean by this? Whatever resource went into the relevant relic levels has not been lost in the void if the materials obtained are returned to the player.
Edit - if I invested £50 and 4,000 crystals into taking Merrin and Ezra to r7, and I have the materials that the money / crystals obtained returned to me, why on earth should I expect the money and crystals to also be refunded? Or is this another occasion like the last time?
Im annoyed because i did not want the relic levels or omis removed from Ezra, and they got removed an d now they need replacing.
I’m like, where’s my Ezra gone, and he’s emigrated halfway down my toons list because suddenly r1 without any omi’s.
Of course I’m going to be angry because now I’ve spent spent the matt’s on my outstanding farm and I have a heavily weakened squad rather than something that was running imperfectly fine.
yes, I am annoyed
Wtf, just sets me back ffs
For those saying the same materials were refunded, so it is fair... It's actually akin to bait and switch, aka fraud, which is prohibited by law/FTC. They use a multitude of in-game resources/gear to obfuscate the cost of the end product we ultimately pay for. But to simplify it, you could say the materials we bought is less valuable since it no longer produces a character as strong as originally advertised. In other words, when a character is nerfed, the in game currency used for it has been devalued as well. So we've been refunded something of lesser value than what we paid for. And this still ignores the other payment decisions made surrounding this character build, such as building out the rest of the squad or the mods tailored to that character.

It's a very interesting concept. I mean let's take a look at something like League of Legends, that has game balancing all the time. You 'could' by a new character with real money and it be OP on release. Then, to have it brought into line with the other game characters.
However here, we have the above in play and other factors. 1. Players may have bought Merrin or Homeless Ezra for real money because of the synergy they had, believing there was no chance of them being nerfed. CG, then refund that real money purchase with in game whatsits....not the real money spent. However, how do you refund a character when it was bought in a pack? The other thing to note is that neither of these characters are/were the most OP in the game, but were both low earners for CG compared to things that are blatantly broken, but bringing in money.
It's a real mess, and on the whole unpopular. Still they got away with it once 4 or 5 years ago......if these are the only changes, then it's not so big for most players and it'll a slide. If it's a regular thing? Well with that's a different scenario.
