Sometimes nice things happen, even though we're not used to receiving nice things in this game, which is kinda sad, This is exactly why i'm always sceptic about positive things in Dokkan, especially if it's very generous functions, it just won't happen, especially not in gacha(summoning) games.

giving away a big amount of stones or kai's isn't a huge game changer on the long run, it just gives you a large advantage on your current gameplay for a bit, since both are already present in the game.

But adding a new way to freely open dupe paths is a game changer and they wouldn't even think twice about throwing such an idea in the trashcan, because dokkan likes money, and they rather have us spending thousands of dollars/euro's/yen etc. to pull that one dupe we need instead of giving a universally applicable dupe unlocker for free.

And if they would add such a thing but it's only obtainable by dragonstones, half the players would riot, since there is no such thing in the game yet if i recall, and it would make the p2w base even more elite than it already (pretends to be) is.

Honestly i pay for this game too once in a while, and even i think that would be a terrible idea.

I mean, it also kinda takes away the fun of suddenly pulling a dupe you need, i pulled SSJ4 Goku the other day, and i was excited as hell to open his bottom right path. he's much more powerful all of a sudden, and that's what the dupe function was for, making dupes useful and exciting again since most people already used Elder Kai's on units they really use a lot. Making a (for example)"Dupe Path Kai" would defeat the purpose of needing dupes.

And Bandai doens't want you to easily open dupe paths, it HAS to be hard, because units can really change your game even if they only have 1 or 2 paths unlocked
