Re: At a loss with the summoner fest event
It’s interesting how the realm events are seen as something that should unite the whole community. The first (and IMO best realm event) required players to win at least one fight in Necropolis in order to qualify. A huge % of players did not and could not participate in that event.Realm events are supposed to unite the community, me leaving my an alliance cause they didn't run 3 Nightmare raids and I didn't want someone sniping my spot 🤣.
And where did the idea come from that everyone should be able to teach every milestone? When Epoch is released, nobody thinks that every TB bro should be able to explore it. I’m not asking rhetorically, I’m genuinely curious. What is it about the realm events that makes everyone feel differently?
I agree with everyone that the communication around this event has been really weird, but Mike probably gave us the hint when he mentioned that some of the milestones are connected to future announcements. Doesn’t mean this is a good design or comms plan, but that might be the reason they aren’t just publishing the traditional table of points.
Re: At a loss with the summoner fest event
Rank rewards make absolutely no sense in this event for f2p players. IF they finish everything and get 300k points, they get the maximum, best rewards from milestones. If they don't, they get less. Aaaall these ppl, will be in 50k-1m rank, and will get the exact same stuff.
Now the spenders, will compete for every other rank, separately.
My question is: Why don t you do a separate, spending competition, one that can someone "unlock" with the key that s named "300k points"? Everybody know the ranks are clearly p2get, there s no need to cover this aspect with a "community" type event, this is not a "community" type event, this is a "ghetto/minority inside the community" type event.

Re: Elders marks are pointless now...right?
Stuck in the middle of some kind of shift. Look at the levels up to 70, increasing marks, tokens and glory caps. What would be the point really if those currencies are on their way out.
I already feel like I miss solo event as some kind of gauge. Ally one doesn't seem to give the same excitement, at least until we start playing for radiance for ally ranks.

No way to reach 100 points in bg now that we start from diamond
I believe that ne and a lot of players not going to get the radiance from 100 points
And im not even mentioning the 200 points
All the whales are still in diamond and vibrenium and will stay in the lower points
Kabam keep doing changes that hurt a lot of players
Its not fair
At least dont put a timer on those radiance rewards

Re: No way to reach 100 points in bg now that we start from diamond
I'm not a fan of this pov tho.The radiance is there to incentivizes the whales to move up. The problem is, the radiance for monthly rewards is too high in comparison, so pushing quickly for 30k radiance isn't that enticing. If they bumped that radiance a bit it would probably be better.I got the 100 points everytime
But it's also not a reward that is meant for everyone to get or for anyone to easily get. If you get it, congrats, if you can't, oh well.
When started vibrenium 2
The change from vibrenium to diamond is a big change
Too many whales still in diamond and vibrenium and at lower points in GC
You are complaining that you didn't get the bugged v2 start this season.
Re: At a loss with the summoner fest event
I don’t want to have to leave my alliance, but my alliance doesn’t do raids, so if I want all the best rewards in this event I would need to leave the alliance I have been with for years, a place I am very comfortable with, to find an alliance that does do raids but not serious war because I am not interested in doing war. Oh and I need to do that with zero warning, having no idea how to even go about it. If I did find the right alliance I would be leaving my old alliance short handed, to join a new alliance for a month, then most likely leave that alliance to return to my original one, if they would even take me back. What a great community event!
Re: At a loss with the summoner fest event
Then have a selector like every lower milestone if that is the concern. I don’t think any account having a single tier 7 has any impact since you need three and four tier 4 alpha for a rank 4.There were knock back effects to those Events and lower Accounts having access to those. I'm with Rex on this. Anyone TB and under shouldn't have much access to T7B.So you are missing my point. All of the previous realm events let everyone contribute as much as they could/wanted to. Yes it is harder for lower accounts but they still could. A throne breaker player could have opened enough banquet crystals to get all of the rewards. A cavalier player could grind battlegrounds. This realm event restricts what players can get. Your argument is the top rewards are too good to give to lower accounts. What would they do with one Tier 7?I believe Paragon players still have access to Valiant EQ.So all players have access to the valiant EQ this month? How does a player reach the top milestone without that?If you engage with the game in all areas throughout the next two months, you'll gain points in the event.Curious more clarity for Realm event coming? soon?So this is what’s essentially replaced the Summoner Appreciation events? This really feels poorly designed as a ‘community event.This isn't replacing the "Summoner Appreciation Events."
The more players that do this, the higher the overall Milestone will get, granting everyone more rewards throughout the event.
You can reach the top milestone without spending money on the event.
There are some milestones linked to in-person announcements, etc, at Summoners Fest in November...
Is there any additional clarity you're looking for me to share?
The top milestones consist of Tier 7 Basic.
If you aren't Paragon yet, Tier 7 Basic shouldn't be naturally obtainable.
If Realm events are supposed to unite the community with a single goal, this fails because by your own admission the entire community can’t achieve the final goal.
