#The new Ascension shards fountain seems overpriced?

I routinely get the gem fountain monthly. Getting 2350 gems a every 30 days for $5 is totally reasonable and easy to finance.

Then came the Research scrolls at 360 for $7 per month. While I don't need them, I could see those who do finding that reasonable as well.

However, the new Ascension shards fountain gives us 385 per 30 days for $15! Is this perhaps a typo? Given that upper tiered blueprints need at least 100 to 130 shards per star, that's only one ascended blueprint per month for $15. That seems really off balanced and over priced in comparison to the other fountains.

Agreed. Also mentioned it in the “survey” in game

Considering 350 shards if you buy them outright as shards is $90, I’d say the fountain is amazingly priced

the shards on their own are amazingly overpriced

every game with microtransactions has some packs that are ridiculously overpriced and not worth it at all, and they are just there for various marketing reasons such as price anchoring. that's what buying shards outright is in this game. i mean i'm sure some people do end up buying them, but for the most part they are just there to make other packs and purchases look like better deals. you CANNOT compare anything to the value of buying shards outright

i'm just saying it's not fair to consider that the shop sells 350 shards for $90

Just imo, the price is ok because when you make a rare resource/item in a grinding game purchasable, then it kinda beats the point of the grind? So the least the devs can do is price it high so you could just grind irl instead lol.

You get enough of AS and RS to make the game go at a decent pace. Only if rushing AR do you really start to feel a strain on these resources.
