I reinstalled today (at support's insistence that would bring back an expansion I lost in the rollback) and was shocked to see my stats had dropped 701/832 points. After closing and restarting it came back to normal. The interesting thing is I believe these numbers are explained by leaving out items from the last 2 events (Collect 20 Leaderboard & Epic Boss).
Here's why:
New items from these events were not showing images in attack screen Items were not even listed in the inventory It just seems like the amount of stats I "won" between the two
Why is this interesting (to me...and probably no one else)?
It shows that there is a default list of items that populate on first running of v2.5. Since nothing is cached locally (yet) it defaults to the things the app 'knows' natively knows about. On the second running it has had time to digest the game data it downloads. This also explains why sometimes you have to open the app a second time after an event starts before getting it.
This is all pretty meaningless...but figured I'd put it out there to explain a small portion of the way the game works. Possibly this could help someone else who's freaking out about a stat drop after a reinstall.
