please everyone, take a deep breath before you post now 
im a little confused currently how this will exactly work and for now i think this is one of the biggest changes ever happened to ls.
BUT let us wait for things to develop first and see all the details and consequences come up.
i think everyone will agree when saying that during the last weeks and months,
this game was more and more descending to a CASH COW for a growing majority of users to make easy fg.
the origins, like climbing the ladder and doing mqs were more and more in the background.
as a result, this update looks like a reaction on this development to me to make it at least harder and focus on playing again.
i really hope that some of the concerns currently will be outnumbered by the positive consequences,
not least because i invested 35k aka all of my funds into muting/welling gear and i hope this is not totally useless now
