Best Of

I have been complaining and sending support tickets for over 4 months, many of you probably have as well, and some are seemingly not having our issue. I'm talking about this nonsense causing blocks to drop and combos to stop randomly. I have tried everything, clearing cache, clearing data, redownloading, u name it. BUT, today I noticed something, and it like those of u experiencing it to test it as well. I believe it's the BOOSTS. With how many different types there are, and how often they are used, it never dawned on me. Til today when I was running story quests all morning smoothly, no issues. Then, jumped in war and put a boost on, boom, block drops, combo drops. I switched to my alt account (no boost) without closing game or clearing any cache and the game ran smooth, then back to main (with boost) glitch. I have had other alliance members test and they are finding the same results. Anyone experiencing this, you know the frustration! Test it and post your results. If you havent had these glitches happen, your opinion on the issue is not needed. We know it works for you, but it doesn't for us.

The real question is, should the daily offer crystal be changed to 3 star with a chance at 4 star? The game is far enough along now that 2* needs to just go away IMO.

$15 for a t4cc of your choice should leave nothing else to complain about

Summoners!

The time has come! We promised that you’d get your first taste of 6-Stars in October, and now we’re are thrilled to announce when your first look at these Champions will come - and the all-new content they'll first be revealed within!

Since the announcement of 6-Stars, we've seen a lot of speculation on where they might first appear. We also know that you, our players, always want new and challenging content. We thought - why not introduce 6-Stars in an exciting new challenge?! Content that is designed to give you a glimpse at the newest additions to the Contest, and content designed to give you a challenge!

Introducing - Boss Rush!

Hitting the Contest on October 18th, Boss Rush is similar to challenges that we have hosted in the past. Summoners will see some similarities with quests such as the Web-Slinger Challenge, but Boss Rush has some major differences… It’s only 6 fights long, features only 6-Star Champions and is only available for 2 weeks! Tough, short and available for a limited time only… Boss Rush is coming to push you to your limits and test your mettle.

Since this will be the first time you’ll encounter 6-Star Champions in the wild, we thought it would be good to give you guys a little more information on what to expect!

What Champions can you Expect to Fight?

Like we said, you’ll be facing off against 6-Star Champions for the first time! But, like all of our more difficult quests, they won’t be the “vanilla” version of the Champions. They’ll feature some imaginative buffs to make them more challenging, and are all fully awakened (Signature Level 200). They will also have their Special 3 attack enabled, a 150% Attack Buff, and a 200% Health Buff.

These Champions will not have the Adrenaline mechanic enabled, although all playable 6-Star champions in the future will have this enabled. This is the mechanic that will allow 6-Star Champions to regain some of their health by attacking their opponents. We may choose to enable this in future Quests, but will not have it active on these opponents at this time.

Additionally, the Champions you encounter here may not initially be available as a 6-Star Variant until some time in the future. So this is not a sneak peak of who will be the first cohort in the 6-Star Crystal!

Remember! This won’t be a stroll along the beach, these Opponents are meant to be hard!

Challenger Rating:
Since 6-Star Champions are new to the game, this also seems like the best time to let you all know what the Challenger Rating of each Rank of a 6-Star will be:

Rank 1 - 110
Rank 2 - 120
Rank 3 - 130
Rank 4- 140
Rank 5 -150

In comparison, a Rank 5 4-Star has a Challenger Rating of 100, while a Rank 4 5-Star has a Challenger Rating of 110.

Since this is the first time you’ll all be encountering 6-Star Champions, we’re going to be keeping a very close eye on this Quest. We’ll be carefully evaluating game data, and will be gathering your feedback and thoughts on 6-Stars to help us fine tune them before they are released.

The Rewards
There is only one path, and one quest, so all of the rewards are awarded upon defeating the Final Boss!

1x 4-Star Hero Crystal
175x Units
1000x 5-Star Shards
10x 5-Star Signature Stone Crystals
10x 4-Star Signature Stone Crystals

We’ve mentioned this before but want to reiterate - this is not only your first interaction with 6-Star Champions, but your first chance to give us feedback on 6-Star Champions as well! We want to know how you found their difficulty level, your thoughts on how your specific Champions performed against Six-Stars, and any other thoughts or feedback you’d like to share with us!

Boss Rush arrives on October 18th! Prepare yourself Summoner!

So basically we gonnabeta test 6*... buffed by nodes? What kind of feedback are you expecting honestly? The worst way of gauging their impact is doing exactly this imho.

As things are, it s an annoying chore you have to do on a 175 units budget to provide non existant feedback coming out for lots of people with a unit spending in order to clear it.

For those rewards honestly feel free to clear it yourself, and try find any kind of feedback of your own, if you can.

Considering the announcement and the amount of time passed from that i expected a much more articulated challenge. This seems, if not lazy, rushed content slammed down just cause you stated it d be out.

My guess is that bug fixing and overall the comicon, aling with the not expected screwup of new wars left you without literally free hands able to develop this event.

And honestly you atent to blame here on the effort, but again id have liked more it being postponed rather than being once more overhyped by words at a new challenge just to be deluded again with sloppy design.

What I was addressing is that Defender Kills are absolutely necessary. Which they're not.

And you are 100% wrong.

With 6*s on their way its time to increase inventory.

T4B and T4C needs increased already

To take a 5* champ to rank 4 you need 12 T4B and 7 T4cs. Its kinda crazy at this point. Most hold for upcoming champs but theres no reason our stash can't be

T4B - 20
T4C - 15

Which means the current solution would be Ranking or boosting in other ways. Without forming an opinion, that would be the answer to optimizing efficiency. We are going to lose Wars now and then in whatever system we play.

Sorry again you miss the point alliance war isn't fun and isn't war. It's a cheap diy AQ right now. You don't need to actually fight to win, you know before starting the result in the main.

War needs to allow the ability for weaker teams to win and tbh that's through skill and dying less. There are many cases of real battles were strategy and the captains ensuring they kept their troops alive longer while killing the enemy faster won the day.

If you're in an alliance and you don't like dying then don't play AW, but war has to be war otherwise call it short AQ because right now at best that's what it is.

What you're talking about is penalizing the opponent through trying, and having a penalty for attempting has very little to do with skill at all. It's not necessary to have Defender Kills in order to have a skill component. That can be achieved through adding some other form of difficulty. By having metrics for Defender Kills that become the main focus, you're actually creating a situation that removes the ability for Offense. Thereby making it Defense Wars. I'm sorry, but I do not agree that Defender Kills are absolutely necessary for a skill component. The only time that is used as an argument is in reference to the opposing team. What it really means is people are upset that they can't win by causing the other team to try itself into a Loss.
