Souls in trading post
I absolutely hate that the game wants you to exchange souls - the only premium currency - to other resources in the trading post.

As a F2P player, these souls come very slowly and it will take me many more months, maybe years to unlock all the souls upgrades.

These trades started showing up in my trading post maybe 2 days ago and they are absolutely infuriating.

It basically ruins the whole cooldown of the trading post. Might as well stop using this mining feature all together.

Dear dev, I love your game, but please fix this. This is just steering the game in a very questionable direction.

This issue will at least become smaller with v0.46, because of three details:
(from the preliminary patch notes)

- Ascension milestone increasing Soul earning by 1% per Ascension (up to A#100!!!).
- Soul gained when Ascending increased to 1000 (from 100), apply retroactively which mean a small rain of Soul for everyone.
- Soul trade changed again to cost 750 (down from 1250).

Even with the cost down I would never spend souls on mining materials until i bought out the store items. i put in the suggestions for a lower frequency or to push them to a later upgrade because it's too early to spend souls and more stuff would be mixed in lowering it's chance to show up.

Do you also not find that you actually start generating souls a lot more frequently daily when you unlock certain autowack abilities, or am I missing something? I don't use potions too often, though, just once in awhile.

you should get around 1 soul a min with auto whack maxed out and your buff timer over a few hours. (5 souls every 5min) with the bonus silber is talking about i would be looking at a 20%+ bonus to that which is nice, but still need to buy the store out first.

I never bought something in the outpost shop for my souls. This damn souls are WAY too worthy, to spend them for anything else, than the soul shop.
I really hate the function to buy something in the outpost shop for my souls. You need years to buy all in the soul shop, even when you invest real money.
This "feature" should be removed!

Ironically, i don't have the whole soul shop bought out (mostly, because I would need 3.84e6 more souls to finish). Also have to remember that the rewards for soul costs are 4x a non-soul cost. Sometimes I'll spend 750 souls on expedition tokens or platinum minerals. it's less frequent now. But I don't see too many soul costs per day on average.

@gamer433: It depends on how much you want to invest. At A30 I could drop 1500 and have the whole shop bought, but the majority of them aren't good or evn worth spending money/souls on.

This is actually fair. If you could buy everything donation would be pointless.

This makes only sense, when you bought most (or all) of the important things in the soul shop.
This is only possible, by playing 100 years or investing a truck full of money.

Also don't forget about the Code each day to get 450 souls i think each reset.
Code: Daily

(If you have the Auto Quest Completer from the soul shop, that code is used automatically.)
