Hello people. I have been playing pocket legends for about 2.5 years and had my ups and downs ( still lv63 :p )
I quit a few times and got bored of all the updates which strongly supported $$$ aka platinum

Nevertheless pocket legends was my go to place during my life and will be for a few more years, but It's just unfair how this game is largely based on $. People will all these 4x 5x elixirs ruling the game, spending $ on platinum.

It's hard for someone who just wants to have the maximum amount of fun but without spending $$$ it's just impossible.

I've played almost all the mmos on the ios but this still will be the best one ive playing yet.. But in the years money has been ruling.

Don't forget to use those daily blessings if you are not allready.
I can play on elixirs free often due to my large toon army, someone is bound to get one even if after a bit of bad luck.
It may help to use free play offers for the 5 plat it costs for a new slot and get a few chances at a free combo elixir.

How can you be lvl 63 after 30 months.

Yes, the daily elixirs even the playing field somewhat since you can have a thrasher-lite for 24 hours when you get the combo.

aside form that, the updates seem to be money-focused for sure, but i guess STS wants to make some more money. NO surprise.

Plenty of ways to play for free, it would be dumb for them not to insert many ways of taking in $ this is a business . If it wasnt for plat users you wouldn't have a free game.

If it wasn't for plat users *in the beginning* most of you wouldn't be here and the game wouldn't be free

I'm sure most of the new L75/L76s today always thought the Main Spine beyond Dark Forest was free.

Those times when you had to download 10 apps from Tapjoy to get to the next campaign if you couldn't buy plat.

It's kinda getting very sad that you can't get that premium item if you don't hit lv76. I was really annoyed and irritated how I couldn't get that crown of persistence in the lv56 cap. That was the best thing that I've ever saw :(

They call that an incentive to purchase platinum. That one of the few things that make us buy it.

There's daily 3x and daily blessings here now. And also free platinum offers which give a descent amount too. I've been playing PL nearly 3 years now without spending $$$ and I have over gold cap lol. Just dedicate yourself to doing straight hardcore grinding and/or farming. Trying out merching pays off a great deal too. Best way is to just play a lot in endgame campaigns like how a former noob like me got a ocean diamond witjout elix when humanist first came out and sold for 1.1m. Or a random pink in BSM on combo daily blessing can earn you 1.8m lol.

But mostly, just enjoy the game. It was free in the first place and you are not obliged to spend real life money on it.

Your preference in chocolate?

Brand? Ex: Godiva, Lindt, etc.

Type? Ex: Milk, Dark, etc.

Also, favorite flowers? ;)

Oh, and what's your take on chocolate strawberries? Love 'em or hate 'em? ;)

P.S: Taking notes for Act II of the performance. ;)

Hmm. My advice for you is as follows:

Solution #1-Pick a balanced pvp level and make a twink decked out with all the best gear. Then rack up kills as high as you can.
Solution #2-Play a different game. There are tons and tons of amazing mmo's out there, especially for PC!

Chocolate strawberries are very lovely ....with champagne.

Prefer handmade Belgian chocolates (Milk)

It is always hilarious to me how many people do not realize that the reason most game developers are going "freemium", is because it is much more profitable for them than subscriptions, or just selling the game. However, most PGI games are fun enough without spending any money as long as you don't want all the new "shineys" and don't want to be "elite".

I managed to wrap them in an airtight container! Let me know when to send them to you! Also, you should take a good old whiff of them just to make sure I sent you the right ones! :)

I also gave the strawberries quite the kick by adding some of the Lily of the Valley essence to them. After all, they smell delicious so they must taste delicious as well, no? :) Let me know how you like them! :p
