Re: CW Preview
They promised frontloaded offers and they delivered for the most part from what I can see, no idea what people are **** about if you are a whale who usually spends over 600 on every sale then yes of course this isn't going to seem very appealing, most people don't spend that much. I'm not sold yet tho I need to see the milestones and the rest of the deals but the fact even f2p players will get something out of this is great.
Re: 7* Kingpin confirmed for Banquet
Tbf, your comments are also obvious, "captain obvious." Welcome to the club!
"Hey, Absorbing Man can handle Mystic defenders, guys. Amazing! And he works outside the class too! What a discovery! Do you know how great atrophy type abilities is against nullify immunes? Bonkers!"
Your same arguments of "Kingpin isn't that good because my OTHER SKILL champion works better for X in BGs" can be used for Absorbing Man. Am I kicking Nico out of my deck? Nope. Am I immediately kicking out Kushala, Spiral, Rintrah, etc? Not really, it might depend on what the meta is. On and on and on.
You can make the case that AbsMan's dual threat nature makes him a good replacement for strictly Offensive Mystic, but …. by your own arguments, "people love pretending these old 6* Gods will still be Gods in the current meta". Is AbsMan still a "god dual threat"? I would argue no, since his defensive value has greatly decreased since people know how to play him. So he is primarily an Offensive Mystic with some defensive potential.
Re: CW Preview
What's weird to me (since we're sharing old man experiences) is how these high school and college kids who make up like most of the top alliances/BG tiers have so much money to constantly buy up every deal at every sale.
I know when I was in college, after using my student aid to buy books and drugs, I had no money left over to go to the grocery store, much less spend thousands on a predatory gacha video game.
Re: Huge missed opportunity
My favorite part was this: "With the launch of Ascension+, around 30 additional CURRENTLY OWNABLE 7-Stars, and the January Saga Chase Champion, will be ascendable, though the precise count might shift slightly. These Champions will live in the Ascension Base Pool. The exact method of acquisition for this Base Pool Crystal is still being determined, and therefore, we do not have shareable details at this moment."
I mean, it's not like we invest in champs with an eye toward the future or anything, so buying a bunch of rank-up mats and sig stones during the holiday events with this uncertain sword of Damocles hanging over our heads makes for a very fun anxiety-free experience.
Maybe I want to take Bullseye to R4 or use an AG on FAM or pour 180 sig stones into Red Guardian. Will any of these champs be in the 30 champ ascension pool? Who knows, go eff yourself, is basically Kabam's response.
Re: Sidequest
This is what I found too. Trying to get intercepts at the beginning of the fight wasted 20+ seconds from the timer. Better to fight normally and the intercepts happen naturally. Didn’t need that many anyway.
Re: Why is there no Captian Britain in the upcoming titan pool.
Bcos she was never intended to be inside titan pool in the first place
Re: Cyber deals leak?
Deals look quite decent. Will wait to see how the webstore miletrack looks like before deciding to spend any money.
Re: Are These Alloys Available Right Now?
T3 class alloy crystals are also in monthly EQ rewards for Valiant. I don’t think T2 celestials are available yet. (There’s at least one rank on 6* relics that needs t3 class but not t2 celestial, but you can’t rank up a 7* relic at all yet)
