I have slowly been inching forward in Terracore but this week I will be selling a bit and chill.
For the most part Claiming and using scrap for Engineering, Damage or Defense is I think the best value.
Buying crates I don't see as worth anything purely because none of the stats on common items I have seen boost you in any noticeable fashion.
Uncommon items however are kinda worth it given you do get a bit lucky. For a standard player just meeting the requirement I expect this can cost you up to $20 in flux to finally get one but they do give a nice boost on stats and since you are likely just dumping scrap it really is just delaying SCRAP earnings.
I did try the quests a bit and well, they are cute. I think I am at least a tiny bit smart enough to know when a feature is not meant for my account level, dandy for a bit of gambling though, same as planets.
Since I sold a big chunk of my Splinterlands cards, 50% to be exact it is nice to see the botty is still chugging along.
As time goes though I do want to try reclaim my summoners at the very least but I am not in any rush, it seems I might yet be able to buy back at well below my selling price since my summoners were also BETA cards they should lose even more value I suppose given the trend of utility over scarcity.
Anyhow.
