For gifts it would be nice if you could send weapons or people, or even gold. I'm just ending up with loads of boons which aren't that good and don't sell for much. Also, 1-5 pieces of gold a week, who invented that? It should be at least 5 every week not less.
upgrades should be for all characters, it takes too long if you have to o it for loads of them so you end up not using them. Also you should be able to choose what level to go on because if ou try and upgrade a new character its too difficult
