Re: At a loss with the summoner fest event
If you’re going to just make up stuff to reply to, please do me the courtesy of making up someone else as having said them.You're absolutely right, this realm event is grindable and ftp can compete for top rankings because they don't have a set amount of acquirable points to reach. I don't know what I was thinking calling Realm Fest a pay to win event.In whatever circles you roam, I believe you. Including the fact you probably shout it out loud while you're typing it.I'm sorry but if there's NO way you can place #1 without having to spend, it's called a PAY TO WIN event.They are unobtainable even if you do pay, unless you also basically do everything. Normally the term pay to win refers to games where either whomever pays the most wins, or spending offers an overwhelming advantage compared to everything else. But that's not really true here, except in an essentially unrealistic extreme. Spending offers an advantage between two players who otherwise are tied in all other respects, but having an advantage between two competitors who otherwise do exactly the same things equally well is not pay to win, that is literally all competitions.There are ranked rewards, which will be unobtainable unless you payI wouldn't call it pay to win. Sure, spending could be a tie breaker for points, but if you don't do everything, especially Raids, no amount of spending is going to catch you up.There are 300,000 total earnable points, so yes you can reach the top milestone, even if you miss a few.Why do you make everything p2w?
Well, technically speaking $24,000 USD might catch you up. But even among the mega whales I suspect the number of people who will actually do that is very close to zero.
Since about a third of the realm points are in Raids, and my alliance doesn't do raids (much less Nightmare Raids which seems to be required to cap out the milestones) I'm basically out of it. But the event is still giving me a ton of rewards for basically just playing the game more or less as I normally do, so I can't be too upset. I find it ... odd that there's so much emphasis on Raids given their presumptive optional nature - and the fact they are tied to alliances, meaning individual players cannot simply choose to do them just for the event - but I suppose Kabam has its reasons there.
I would call that pay to win
I come from the ancient generation of game players that did not just make up new meanings for words to justify their use. Once upon a time, calling this situation "pay to win" would have gotten you laughed off the discussion boards. Of course, that was back when literacy was almost a prerequisite to even get on the internet, since you needed to at least be able to read instructions to do so.
By the way, there is literally no possible avenue by which a Chess player can become the FIDE world champion without spending money. Therefore, Chess is a pay to win competition.
I'm sure someone more knowledgeable can figure out a way to rack up those points without spending. Maybe you can share some of that wisdom so that we can make it happen.
Once upon a time, the idea that Earth had a sphered shape got people laughed off including Pythagoras and Aristotle... little did they know.

Re: Next cycle of RAIDS after RAIDS Month when...?
If they follow the regular cadence, we should essentially have 5 raids in a row. But confirmation on that would be cool.
Re: More Cheaters in BGs?
It would be interesting if you show the stats. The meta on this BG makes it entirely possible for what you show to be legit. I came out of a bunch of fights with 100% health. Surprised the hell out of me!
Re: More Cheaters in BGs?
I disagree, It gives the community opportunity to vent and talk about frustrating things like cheaters.
and as for posting a picture, I didn't realise we couldn't do that? surely the people blatently breaking the rules of the game are the only ones in the wrong.

More Cheaters in BGs?
I am recetly fighting more and more obvious cheaters in this mode, making it very hard to climb in the track.
Either this guy is outstanding at playing CGR or I need some compensation

Re: Is Kabam ignoring this raid bug on purpose ?
Have you actually read the raid nodes? To gain fervor you need stacks of whatever choice node you selected, and you need a charge of your assault/vanguard/tactician role going into the fight. It’s always worked as intended for me, so go make sure your understanding is in line with how the game actually functions
Re: More Cheaters in BGs?
I disagree, It gives the community opportunity to vent and talk about frustrating things like cheaters.There are TOS on the forums and that is part of them. They may be cheating and that is against the rules, but you are also breaking different rules by posting their info and accusing them

Re: Is Kabam ignoring this raid bug on purpose ?
Do you have at least one charge on your role when you’re going in?Doubt it. They would have to read to know that
