Re: 1 Energy Refill a month… thanks Kabam!
I can't speak to the behavior of others, but way back when I first started playing, energy was much more difficult to come by.
I didn't spend much time in the game. I got on, used my energy and left. I was fine with that. Didn't bother me. I play a bunch of games and some that I play use that system so I am used to that playstyle.
Consequently, I didn't spend money. I'm much less likely to spend on a game that I spend little time in/on. In fact, I never spend in those games. But that's just me. I never really feel invested in those games. The ones that get me to stay, well they usually get money from me.
At some point, energy refills became much easier to obtain in this game and my time in game increased.
As you may have surmised, I began spending on the game. I was in the game more, felt more invested and therefore spent.
I'll be completely transparent. I am going to spend. Somewhere. It's in the budget.
Less time here, simply means more time in one of the other games I play.
That's not a threat, it's not a tantrum. It's simply reality.
Personally, I think it's a bad business decision, but it's yours to make.
Re: Hubris node
You need a Dot champ that will do dmh while he is throwing a special + have the degen on him when he is throwing it. Then it bursts and he dies.
Re: Who should I take from comp
i just use a W/L evaluation and figure out the probability. Without k owing your roster, IMO there are 12 definite W’s in the current Titan, so 66% chance of success with the crystal.
W’s: Yelena, Swoman, Bastion, Jean, Nico, Karolina, Maker, Cass, Okoye, Zola, Dazzler, Gentle.
Maybe’s: Hevo, Galan
L’s: Cyke, Zemo, Falcon, Spidey
Generally speaking — compared to historical titans or featured crystals — a 2/3 win rate is remarkably good.
So you might rationally say, “Zola is in the W section, so why not take him automatically?” Which is the right question. The next consideration is how much better you think some of the other W’s are compared to Zola. Again, IMO, Yelena, Jean, Swoman, Okoye, Nico, Karolina are much, much better than Zola. So that’s 6/18, 33%. Not a sure thing that you get someone better than Zola, but still pretty good odds compared to what we are used to.
Ultimately you gotta build your own list and then make a bet. (Or not and just take Zola.)
Re: No Arnim Zola in Titan Crystal...
Most of them complaining about RNG for missing their expected champs & sad after opening Titan crystal (even after Titan nexus)
Since only 1 crystal will be given as compensation.
I prefer let it be selector type among all 18 Titan pool champ.
Atleast they may happy with one of most expected champ.
Re: Thoughts on Adaptive EQ nerf
Unfortunately, one pass through Classic will still be required.
I'm not a fan of that either, but for the time being, that will be there.
On the bright side, with the adjusted tuning, one pass through Classic should be a LOT simpler than previously.
Re: Why Doesn't Green Falcon Gain the Unstoppable in GC Meta?
Slow reduces the ability accuracy of unstoppable effects placed by the defender, not only effects placed on the defender.
Re: Thoughts on Adaptive EQ nerf
You want to know what I think? I think Kabam should stop this pattern where they continually mess things up and only fix things when they are called out on it.
They are using their playerbase to conduct the role of testing, which they are obviously too greedy to spend the money needed on getting their own employees to do that job.
And this is why there will continue to be a problem with new content missing the mark and customers having to tell Kabam how to do their job when they shouldn’t have to.
Call me a hater but this has happened way too many times times to excuse.
Re: VALIANT EVENT QUEST - CHECK IN!
@Kabam (Osaurus) Rex @KabamDORK
The prestige-based scaling system isn't fair; Please, remove it from future versions.
Rewards should be based on each player's ability to overcome challenges, not how much money they spent to obtain the 30 most prestigious characters.
Using a prestige-based scaling system turns EQ into a competitive event. A system where those who already have a lot will earn a lot, and those who have little will earn little, doing the same content, doing the same work, facing the same difficulty or hardest because don't have all the answers.
What's the new step? An act 10 where your rewards are based on how much money you've already spent in the game?
There's no problem with having an event focused on spending money. But let it be optional content, as it always has been. Don't turn monthly events, which have existed since the game's inception, into something like this.
The title system has been in the game for years and has always worked. It's a fair system, and there's no reason to change it.
