Achievement Tokens
As long as people aren’t penalized in some way for already having achievements finished, I am happy with the Token system. I would be very happy, actually.

My only gripe is another dang token/coin/currency! With all the dungeon tokens, fractal relics, badges of honor, the bank tabs or backpack slots get filled up pretty quickly.
Of course, I guess this entices players to buy gems to expand bank/backpack slots… so I guess it could be viewed as a ‘win’ depending on your point of view..
(I shouldn’t have to create ‘alts’ for the sole purpose of being a pack mule for my main.)
I’m hoping they add them into the currency tracking at the bottom of the inventory screen. There’s room there!
But I think the reasons they do tokens vs currency is that tokens are easier to make account bound. So the tokens are probably account bound, and that’s good.
If they wind up being soulbound and still inventory items, that’s irritating.
Seeing the price of 10 DYEs made me think that they wont be easy to acquire or to stock.

And the fact that an obsidian shard (worth at minimum 4 fractal runs) is only seemingly a trifle as well. These will be some intensely valuable coins.

Agreed.
As for the current points, if they gave rewards for old points people would instantly have everything and the system would be pointless. The point is providing goals. You can’t make a goal when the race is over.

They have already stressed that the values on the chart are subject to change. This is not their final answer.
Also, with all of the newly added collectible slots that they gave us at Christmas I’m not about to kitten or come up with a gem-store conspiracy theory if they add a new token.
