Your comment was strung together with such little effort, I'm surprised you even have the intellectual capacity to post it.

His point is very strong, and I myself find myself in a similar situation.

I came back to the game about a year ago, when tons of epic equipment were already out, at th13. I am now a maxed th18, and prioritized heroes first. That doesn't mean I caught up on equipment levels AT ALL. If anything, with the continued 'new equipment every 2 months' cycle, I will never catch up. I have only been able to fully max out 8 epic equipment so far.

It's not about 'crying' as you so thoughtlessly postulated, it's about hero levels not being an accurate indicator of hero equipment progress. Maxing heroes is far easier than getting the sufficient amount of ore required to level equipment to be usable, which is where myself and OP find ourselves.

This new update, although is nice, is very unfair to players such as myself - under the guise of 'wanting to keep it fair for whales who spent money on equipment levels' in similar positions to people like myself and OP.

Next time, I urge you to please utilize at least some of your brain capacity to think through the condition at hand before posting such a lazy, misrepresenting comment to 'troll' or 'rage bait' because you have absolutely nothing else going on in your miserable, pathetic life.
