Question about training progres of a 6* player

[Atdhe Shala]

Hi everybody!

I'm a level three player, and I bought this 5* striker at the very beginning of the season, only 6 points from becoming a 6* one. I measured his training and he got about 120 point progress with a 30% training on Hard.

But now since I got him to 6*, he's only training at 80, having lost 33% of his usual progress. Is this intended by Nordeus? I intend to make him a 7* player by the middle of the season, but now it'll be difficult to do that without spending a really large amount of green packs which I should probably use to improve my other sub-6* 18 year olds.

Yes, the higher a star a player becomes the slower he trains.

If you ever get a player to be 9 star you almost have to do the hourly training on hard to see any movement at all on his progress

I noticed that Training 18-19y.o once they got 6Stars slows them down by around 25-30%.
My 18y.o Striker used to get up to 36-44points on stretching as 5 stars, once he got his 6th star points went down to 28-32
So ya, its regular ;P They always slow down once they gain a star.

[RJSlow]

they slow down to prevent the fast trainers from becoming really high stars

So, it seems like it's better to own a team full of 5* players rather than a few 6* coupled and mostly 4* here and there.

Yep indeed. Having a Striker with 7 stars makes no sence if your defence is 4stars.
Building the team step by step is the best you could do.
P.S Its actually worth powertraining 18y.o guys to 6stars so that you could keep them in the next few seasons. They would always keep up with the quality of 5/6stars
