I would like to request a delete a Specialist week, or maybe a month, or maybe have the ability permanently. But with a pop up asking if we really want to do this.
This may raise some eyebrows, especially with people who have not played for long and therefore do not have many specialists yet, but let me explain.
I now have over 100 generals, over 100 Explorers and 56 Geologists.
I don't use half of the Generals or Geologists.
Given the chance I would delete at a minimum: 24 Generals, 2 Explorers ( Tavern ) and 16 Geologists.
When i first started ( and there are lots of people played longer than me ) we could get the 6 Tavern generals and in events or for gems Battle Hardened Generals that were an improvement and Veteran Generals that were a lot better, then BB brought out Major Generals, another improvement and more recently Older Gemini Generals the best of this type so far.
When I started I got the Tavern and when I could the Battle Hardened of which there were a few different ones but basically the same. Then when i could I got the Veterans then Majors and now The Older Gemini which makes all the preceding ones virtually obsolete.
BB also brought out the warriors of Anteria generals, Nusala, Anselem + Vargus with Special skills and in todays jargon, must have's.
Since then lots of new Generals with different skills or abilities and I suppose most of us bought them with Event Resources or Gems.
As for Geologists, the same sort of things apply.
I have 7 Field Medic generals which I keep receiving for doing quests in the Anniversary event, no use to me at all but useful for new players so while I would not want this to completely stop but when you give specialist as a reward can you not offer an alternative reward as you do in the Calendars, multiple choice, it does not have to be much but something so I do not have to take the specialist.
I look forward to the views of my fellow settlers.
