Idols.

What is the point of these ridiculous things, except to clutter the screen.
So, i activated the swamp idols, woohoo, gained a whole hit point more, no extra rss no savings in anything.
Then, after destroying the swamp monsters, of which there were two, I tried to unequip the swamp idols so I could equip badlands idols. NOPE! Unable to do that, WTF.
This concept is as good as the shrine concept, utterly useless.

 

Ok, fine, I'll await the idol upgrade with baited breath.
How about the shrines?
Firstly, what a waste of space the lava pit. Why not have nodes on that?
The centre is already crowded.

Secondly, Why TF. Is the stronghold immune from constant attack like the others?
If everyone could be constantly usurped, shrines could be a permanently ON feature of the game, instead of at ATA's whim.

Finally, who really wants to sit unprotected for extended periods to gain temporary strengths!
