I agree, I really do not understand why they would not change the permanent Safety Gems to work with the new system except to siphon more money off players. So much for, "We will listen to players." They want the trust from players, but do nothing to earn it .
I have been through multiple iterations of monster cards, and crusader codex card revamps and this seems by far the most frustrating.
It is one of the very few portions of this game that isn't pay to win. I understand re-introducing potable badges for those that do not already have one, but there is no reason to take away the crusader codex to do it. I have put a lot of time and money into the game but for once would like to have an equipment that doesn't require money. You can only nickel and dime people so much till they just quit...
