[2021] Aethersparks are not dropping


Original Post — Direct link

Yeah, I know, this should be on bugs but this is the only way devs can see it (some of you should know why I put it here).

I have a little problem with aethersparks - theyre not dropping, even though im fighting from the beginning. Its happening to me since the reforge update. I do understand that aethersparks are premium currency but c'mon, I need them, lol. Just fix it and everything gonna be okay, I guess

Its not like its not dropping at all, because sometimes I get it, but i'm mad af because of it

We've fixed a few cases where Aethersparks were not dropping correctly. We are also doing another tuning pass to increase Aetherspark drop rates based on feedback and the latest data we are reviewing since patch 1.5.2. Both of those changes will come out with 1.5.3. We'll keep monitoring this currency closely with each patch until we get it right. Thanks for your patience.

Really great to hear it.

IMO you should just restore aethersparks drops per every event stage. Removing them had by far the biggest effect on the 'sparks earn rate and also made this possible:

  1. Start doing an event
  2. Work your ass off through stages, reach the last one
  3. Random players join, start dropping like flies, upping Danger
  4. Event fails, all your hard work is wasted, aethersparks-wise you get nothing

It's the most aggravating, frustrating, anger-inducing thing that can happen to you in the game right now.

I can understand lowering aethersparks earn rate, that has a purpose, but making your players livid and hate playing with others is something that needs to be avoided at all costs.

Thanks for the feedback! We’re discussing that topic internally.
