Re: Elder Valiant Event Quest Difficulty Feedback
In theory, this could have been good, but it feelsl ike this was designed before Valiant Gauntlet, and the implementation has been woeful. Combining it with top 30 prestige has left a real stink on the whole thing, and that has not been helped by the shambolic issues of last night. Main issues being:
- Top 30 prestige has resulted in a nerf to the rewards that most were getting last month. Less T7B, less T6CC, less Titan shards etc. Unless you have 15+ r4s/29k prestige, you are worse off with this change. Slightly longer grind for lesser rewards is an L.
- The rewards are padded out with items of little value and seem based on around the time we were getting a 6* AG from doing objectives from 6 months ago. Unless we are going to get the opportunity to sell 6* AGs for shards, the two included are not going to be worth much. Likewise, mythic crystals, which have never really been great, and to a certain point ascension dust (4* for arena maybe, but I'm running out of 6* to ascend, and I won't be ranking any up past r3 due to Top 30 prestige)
- A lot of relic resources for the old relics but no shards for statcast relics.
- Daily Event changes being out of synch with the EQ dropping.
With 2, the obvious answer is that you are getting everything from the lower tiers, but it has not really been well thought out, and some stuff like AG's/Ascension will need to have some use for 39k prestige at some point (selling AGs or ascending 7*)
Overall, this should have been far better, and the prestige banding should have been lower. If you've managed to get every r4 available through content and a BGs deck of r3's you shouldn't be getting less rewards from EQ than last month.

I'm considering quitting also this is to difficult for me to have fun

Re: Help with EQ
You'll be able to auto-play the new daily quests when they launch on Monday, since that's where all the EQ units are going.

Re: Are you skipping EQ this month?
I’m prioritizing WoF Q3 (which I’m holding my nose to do just because I want my Serpent duped) and 9.3 ahead of the EQ. If they make some corrections and if I have time at the end of the month I might give it a try, but if I don’t like it I won’t finish it.
In case anyone from Kabam is reading this, three things:
1- Probably not the best strategy to have this major a screw up the night before a big sale
2 - Probably not the best strategy to launch a revised version of the EQ that people actually liked (the one from three iterations ago) then move to this. If you just moved from the old version to this it would probably have been less of an issue vs creating something people enjoyed, then taking that away for two less popular versions indicating it was a test, then instead of going back to the one people clearly liked or a hybrid of the three moving to one that is apparently objectively worse than either of the last three months or the original.
3 - Much of what I’m reading across the various threads sounds like the fights and setup are directionally more WoF like than anything else. Probably not the best strategy to build on that content given how unpopular it seems to be. Admittedly, I don’t have the play data but…
The game
Re: Are you skipping EQ this month?
yep, since I don't spend any money on this game so I'm grabbing everything my greedy paws can take
Re: Help with EQ
I thought classic was suppose to be an 'easy run through'. The opponents have 30% more attack rating and health pools than act 8.4 - and thats even before you get to elder level difficulty which is the one that is suppose to scale.
Re: Criticisms of Adaptive Difficulty EQ
This post sums it up really well. I went into adaptive EQ with an open mind but the second I saw the first fight of the lowest level classic, which you have to do to even unlock elder, I knew I was done. The very first fight had a 30% higher attack rating and health pool than those in act 8.4.
I have no issues with having a hard difficulty but having the easiest difficulty harder than some of the latest story quest is insane. There is literally nowhere now where you can take a break from hard content and just have some easy fights or even auto-play for basic rewards.
Not everything needs to be Everest.

Maybe just enjoy a circus…at least their clowns admit they’re clowns.
