Well, if path/cost increase to boosters is gone, I'm more inclined to try CB again.
Btw. When I played Tien Chi in a CB blitz, I had a problem with old celestial masters. They kept dying like flies, which was especially painful when the one I empowered to astral 3 (to forge expensive CB boosters) bited the dust. Then I played Tien Chi without CB and realised that masters dont start with old age most of the time.
Is it another change introduced by CB?
Highlighted for QM's notice ^_^.

I don't think anyone really understands how the age mechanics work .
FAQ, bottom.

As far as randomness in age goes, I think it varied up to 10% of maxage being added or subtracted from the listed starting age. Not sure on that, though.

I think you must be confusing eras, CB has never (at least intentionally) added to celestial master age.
