One of the main topics were the current progression and currency systems, so in order to temporarily mitigate these we increased the rate at which players receive XP and shards by about +100%. We also have given existing and future players 2000 shards and 60 crystals as a reward (players who started before this update should receive double).
We are also would like to make it clear that repeated use of exploits and other abusive behavior won't be tolerated. We want everyone to have a good time and, on top of hot fixing issues as they get detected, we will take actions against players that will engage in these activities.
