Loop #1 of the bridge: 100+250+500+900+1500=3250

Loop #2: same, another 3250

Loop #3: same, another 3250

Final bridge: 3000 coins each. Coho did this twice.

So 3250 x 3 = 9750, plus 3000 x 2 = 6000, grand total 15,750 coins. At the rough "exchange rate" of 100 coins = $1, that's $157.50 (you get small discounts for buying coins in bulk, so he probably paid a little less than that).

This game is big time pay-to-win. This is accurate. Is it worth it? Ha - what do you think? But I only spend on boss events; these to me are fun. I care very little about the other 2 events, and other than Grimlock, I won't spend much on them, if anything at all, again. I usually have leftover coins to buy some resources and just coast thru them using the free stuff.

If R5s are a continuing trend for dungeon crawls, I will still pass on them, only because they are so boring the card isn't worth it to me, unless it is a Sideswipe R5.
