Negative Mastery of the Arena Preview Event

Share:

Because of the slow rollout of the Arena, there are currently two different Preview Pages. One says “Coming Soon” and the other says “Now Open For Fights”.  At this time I don’t have any information on the status of the rollout. If you recall, the rollout of the new Fight Module started on June 1st of 2011 [1]. Zynga didn’t announce that it was 100% rolled out until July 1st [1]. During the beta/slowroll phase, many positive changes were made so if you do have the Arena, it’s important that you give feedback. You can do this by taking the survey located here.

To get to the page shown above, go to the Home Page Ad Module and click on the Arena ad.

Those who have the Arena have the option to use their acquired Power Cards to craft Power Ups. If you bring your total number of Power Cards below 230, your mastery will go down. In the example below, I crafted enough Power Ups to bump my mastery to the Gold Level.

I then acquired four new Power Cards and my mastery went to Ruby again.

It would be cool if you could get the mastery item for a second time but fortunately for those who don’t yet have the Arena, you don’t. Zynga dodged a bullet by coding to prevent this. I can’t imagine the shit storm that would have erupted if those with the Arena were able to get multiples of these items. Players who don’t have the Arena (especially VIP players) are already getting frustrated and I don’t blame them.
