Card Collecting

[thebigbum243]

just my thought, going from inferno tier 1 to inferno tier 2, the monsters get double hp.. you don't gain double xp or money, you in fact gain about 80 percent xp and money.. and then because its not going to be an increase of 1-1 cards, only 0-1 cards, the increase in "card drop rate" (the amount of cards gained over a certain period of time, not the actual chance to get a card drop) is only around 30 percent for card drops.. so in essence, enemies take twice as long to kill, and don't give nearly the same amount of rewards. You also have to consider that there is also a respawn time for each monster, but at the same time, 30 percent increase to card drop amount really wont do anything, especially seeing as the "max card tier" is 500 million cards.. youd need to farm inferno tier 999 for 500 000 card drops, all of which would have to be the absolute maximum card drop amount, just to hit that number in one section. I understand the game needs to have some continuity, not finishing everything on the first day etc. However, this system seems very extreme. It is nice that it takes a while to get, but at this point, people will die of old age before they are able to complete the final card tier in a single area, let alone all the areas.

in conclusion, I personally will never move up an inferno tier, until either:
A) my auto hits do more damage than the hp of the enemies I am fighting. or
B) I have all the cards needed in every area (to a point) (in my opinion all the cards after 1k are pretty gravy, there is no need for them, collect 1500 more cards for 40 more base dmg.. when youll already have 30-50k base..)

edit: PS: this all being said, this is the most in depth Idle game Ive ever played, balancing it is probably extremely hard. I appreciate all the work that has gone into it, and I will continue to be a steadfast supporter, regardless of if these mechanics are ever changed or not.
