Best Of

I mean, that is pretty much the lesson I've learned from this incident. Hoard resources, wait for glitches (won't have to wait too long with this game), and then exploit exploit exploit. Why would anyone do the right thing when Kabam rewards doing the opposite?

A better solution would've been to make an "Oops" crystal with just the 21 missing champs during the bug window in it. Send 1 of those for every 8 crystals people opened during the bug, which represents about the ratio of new champs to old in the pool now. That's a fair compensation that tries to give you exactly what you missed out on, since, on average, every 8th pull would've been one of those new champs. It doesn't give you the huge benefit of opening 8 times as many crystals instead, which lets you get top tier older champs, sig stones, awakenings, shards, etc., all things you ALREADY got when you opened your original stash of crystals. You don't need that stuff compensated, you only need the missing new champs compensated. 7 of the 8 crystals you opened originally were always going to be older champs. You got the right thing out of those crystals. So there's no reason to give you those crystals back and let you open them again.

The way they decided to compensate the issue literally broke my heart. I do not know what I want from this game. It feels so disrespectful for all my time, effort and money while building up the prestige comparing to hudnreds of free sig stones they are going to gift to "lucky" people at "lucky" time.

I mean, the whole thing is a stupid design.

A rift-style rewards side quest = fine

or

A rift-style rewards side quest with randomiser = fine

or

A rift-style rewards side quest where the paths have wildly different requirements = fine

but…

A rift-style rewards side quest with randomiser and where the paths have wildly different requirements = Aaaaagh!

I mean, seriously: on path E, multiple buffs are a necessity; and on path D, multiple buffs = an enormous mountain to climb

Thankfully you can back out and try again, but surely a better solution for next time would be to place a team swap-out option after the randomiser gate?

Don't take this as an insult; but you and I are not playing the same game. You are fine not doing stuff that you find too difficult or don't enjoy. Others do the stuff to make their rosters as strong as they can whether they enjoy it or not

You can't tell other what is detrimental or not when you don't put the max effort and treat things casually.

The amazing part is that this type of situations are not a first time situation. It happened with loyalty, with mythic crystals, with Titan crystals, with wrong items in sales and they HAVEN'T EVEN CONSIDERED A WAY TO REVERSE THIS TYPE OF ISSUES.

So let me unpack this masterpiece: the shield “applied but didn’t,” GC arbitrarily doubled your required wins, and seven titan crystals were personally instructed to troll you. Fascinating.

Do we really need another Thread on it?
