REWARD UPDATES
Shatter EssenceShatter Essence is being added instead of Light Essence and will be obtainable when defeating the final bosses of either Raid map and claiming their treasure.
RADIANCE REWARD ADDITION
Radiance Rewards are being added to the top 3500 alliance-ranked rewards for regular AQ and Raids.
Alliances below that threshold won't receive any Radiance and will continue to claim the usual Ranked Rewards for those brackets.
Here's a detailed list of Radiance per bracket:
Re: Pure Skill Masterie worth it?
Not with the new champs who punish critical hits like gentle and Zola. Not worth it at all anymoreIt's generally not a great mastery.
But actually @Ragnaruk5178 you've managed to choose one of the very few champions where Pure Skill actually does something useful: Zola doesn't punish crits, he basically ignores them by reducing the critical penetration of his opponent by 80%. Serpent does the same mechanic, by 60%
But, Pure Skill lets you boost your Critical penetration back up again. So, Pure Skill (at high rank) lets Skill champions partly compensate for one of Zola's defenses.
I wouldn't recommend running it ordinarily; but if there's an Epoch of Pain-type challenge with a beefy Zola, then it would be worth putting into your Mastery load out, if there's a challenge to defeat him with a Skill champion.
Re: Runway Solo Points
I don’t think so recently.In the past, you got additive points so you'd get 1 or 6. This time either intentional or not, you get 5 or 1.that's exactly how it has worked in the past. wonder why the change.
And as for before, wording might have said “BONUS for using xxxxx”. Which indicated that you would get base points plus bonus points.
Re: Aw-Kabam are you entertained?
No viable counters? These nodes are as bare bone as you can get. They all have counters to every champion you could place.I will say there are definitely a lot of counters for these nodes and honestly one thing that I will say this challenge did was that It made me use my 6* Rank 4 Baron Zemo, and honestly I liked that, he has been pretty good in this challenge so far, countering many of the nodes.

Re: Aw-Kabam are you entertained?
Most fights are glorified SQ fights,
Failed experiment, hopefully old war format returns.

Re: Aw-Kabam are you entertained?
Oh come on now 😅Poor planning on my part. I used Herc. He's immune to Nullify either way so options are limited.Whom did you use? Was it the nullify, prevent with AAR etc?I just spent 30 minutes taking down a Thing on Prowess. Meh. LolHate on me if you want, but I'm not a fan of this format. We've won both Wars so far, but I don't care for amped up fights that are end-game level. Not every aspect of the game needs to be 20-minute Fights. Personal opinion.Not a fan of this format either but the fights aren't anything different than normal aw fights as long as you bring counters that utilise the force charges.
We've found in the majority of fights they're actually done quicker than in normal aw style.
The nodes actually very helpful if you play into it. Fights go faster than normal AW fights.
Now that I look into it, Thing is a very tricky placement on that fight. You'll need a tech that can invalidate prowess like Iron Man or someone who can apply Cowardice
So Sentinel also works well on that specific fight. Or Omega Sentinel. Very good option
Re: So...3 Exclusive Champs every 3 Months behind (essentially) paywall
I would say this is false after the introduction of radiance. Ive seen people that pushed in Mysterium/Celestial quit the game because the constant exclusivity of champions being introduced for $$ or units was just too overwhelmingThis game is becoming more P2W day by day and it’s getting unfairThe game isn't p2w. Unless you're pushing for the absolute highest possible echelons of content and pvp you don't have to pay a penny in order to play.
