Time management suggestion
I see more and more people leaving the game because of the strain on time it has become and fewer people willing to start the game because of the amount of time it takes just to keep up. I would imagine most of the player base cannot keep up with everything, so here are a few suggestions to help with time management:
Arena shard payouts: decrease it significantly but make it earned every hour, with the payout giving you what you earned for the day. For example: holding a spot in the top 100 now pays 10% of the original value once an hour. Maybe less than 10 since there are 24 hours. This would make arena way more competitive, destroy these trading spots shards, and allow people to play the arena when they have the time rather then at a fixed time.
Raids: get rid of tickets, everyone hitting 600 a day to stay competitive is silly. I hit mine easily most days but we are busy. Allow each raid to be ran once a week with refreshes on Sundays. Guilds can run what they feel comfortable with, triple rewards across the board to reflect the reduced raiding. Or 2.5 increase.
Both of these would help make time invested decrease dramatically and encourage people with lives to be able to play competitively which in turn would encourage more investments.
Other thing to consider would be to give us the option of turning off cut scenes in the settings menu. Once I've seen it, I don't need to keep watching it. It makes those endless attempts on events sad.
These are just a few of my thoughts to help keep busy people invested.
