New EQ prestige change…. Is bad
*You can see the plus green that I added as if my top 30 were high enough to make my account an “elder”.
Thank you (that’s sarcasm)




Re: My take on the compensation (which isn’t one)
Yeah. Most of this comp is garbage that is going into overflow.
They are really putting too much stock into the rebirth crystals

Re: Roll EQ’s Back to the old version (or not)
So wtf content am I supposed to do to autofight and use energy when I can't or don't want the game to be my main focus? I usually autofight through uncollected and lesser when I don't have time to sit and fight.
Sorry but this is ****. I don't need to autofight daily ****. I'm not a competitive player. I'm barely into act 8 because I just don't care to put the time in. I usually explore all the EQ stuff and will contemplate story or side quests if time allows.
Edit…first fights in adaptive are 80k. The rewards look lackluster. I will have to use boosts and pots. Too much of a time and effort suck if that's the one EQ content. This makes zero sense.
And I'm supposed to autofight daily junk and road just to hit my daily milestones with no completed content to show for it? What a joke.
So gutting the EQ content just kills the game for me. If this doesn't change I'm definitely out. Already told my alliance mates this, and I've been the leader for 8yrs. Been here since the first valentines day. Way to ruin a fun diversion Kabam.
It's like I'm going to go for a run. Had a long day of work and didn't sleep well. I'll make it a recovery run. Nope, you have to do a 5 mile 7 minute/mile run. F/U kabam.

Re: Roll EQ’s Back to the old version (or not)
Reposting this from another thread:
Same timeline. Stopped playing the game for two years. Got back this February and completed anything I can with my 6R4s. I now have 5 7R4s, with enough for additional 3 (waiting for the Titan reset), around 110 7* champs, and playing with a T1 alliance. I didn't spend anything during Deadpool Event, Heart of Fire, and didn't even buy any unit or cash deals during July 4th.
I'm currently at 24k now dropping from 32k but I don't really mind the difference in rewards in EQ brought by this prestige drop. A whale in my alliance (currently at 30k) is getting 11k T7B, 30% T4A, and 1.2k 7* Awakening shards more than me. He spends at least $2,000 a year, I spent less than $100 to get a few weekly deals to get Lumatrix and Sorvach plus Platinum Tracks. Will that difference of 11k T7B leave me behind by not spending thousand of dollars, I don't think so. I completed everything I can, even Wheel of Fate, without it.
The overreaction on EQ rewards is too much. The difference is really not that much. The REAL difference is in the Battlegrounds Rewards (Radiance). A big whale will get lot more resources there than this new EQ revamp but at least there, we can somehow compete despite the disadvantage.

Re: Roll EQ’s Back to the old version (or not)
I really don’t understand how Kabam thought this new Event Quest format was a step forward.
Under the old system, I was Valiant — the top tier — and could complete that level for top-tier rewards while still having access to all the lower difficulties. That meant I could choose to auto-play the easier ones for a bit of casual fun and pick up extra resources without burning out.
Now with the new prestige-based scaling, I’ve dropped to a much lower bracket because my roster is small and my top 30 prestige is only ~18k. The result? The rewards are worse than what I previously earned as Valiant, and I’ve lost access to every lower difficulty. There’s nothing I can auto-play, nothing light and fun to grind, and everything feels like a chore.
Even worse, the new “Classic” difficulty — which you have to complete to even unlock the main Elder difficulty — is wildly overtuned. I checked the first node and the opponent has 763k health. For comparison, 8.4 content (which I’m actively exploring) has fights with around 576k health. That’s supposed to be the upper end of content — and this is a monthly EQ at the lowest difficulty?
The new system removes flexibility, reduces rewards for a huge chunk of players, and increases difficulty across the board. It actively punishes smaller rosters, even if you’ve pushed through and earned high progression titles like Valiant. The entire experience now feels joyless, grindy, and unwelcoming.
I used to look forward to EQ every month. Now? It feels like content I’m being pushed out of.
This isn’t just a miss — it’s a massive step backward. Not everything HAS to be be end game content!

Re: September Clawback Account Suspension
Sorry but I gotta get this yap out.
This is not a “juicy” compensation package in the least. The only thing that looks somewhat appealing is the rebirth crystals and that are chance based. Compensation shouldn’t be based on chance. The past few weeks have been a complete **** show for this game: from aw issues AND solutions, to web store purchase bugs, to 9.3 rewards and now this prestige change followed by a screw up on their end that has their most dedicated players suspended for upwards of a week. And I’m not even naming everything.
In all likelihood I am a top 1% spender on this game. So I can’t believe I’m saying this but I am a few hours away moving on to a new hobby. This has been atrocious over the past few weeks.
My take on the compensation (which isn’t one)
10,000x Summoners Fest Points
- 5x Level 5 Alliance War Health Potion
- 3x Energy Refills
- 3x Level 2 Revives
- 5x Level 5 Health Potions
- 2x Rebirth Crystals
- 2X AQ refills
- 2X AW refills
- 3x Greater Champion boosts
Summoners Fest points: 0, 1millions, 2Millions points, May as well be zero, I got all the milestones = slap in the face
Energy refill: overflow = slap in the face
Revives and Health potions = slap in the face
2x Rebirth (4 total) = most probably 12 Valient crystal , more slap in the face
2x AQ refill: I’ll need more because I’ll be unable to join today, more slap in the face
AW refill: I don’t do AW… yup more 👋🏻
Champions boost, yup more items in overflow
You call that compensation, I call that an insult

New prestige view showing wrong champs/prestige
People are potentially going to waste resources/time ranking/sigging up the wrong champs given what is shown on this screen. IMO you should make an announcement on this
Re: Roll EQ’s Back to the old version (or not)
keep adaptive. I haven’t gotten to elder difficulty yet since I’ve just begun, but classic is stupid easy and there’s significantly more potential in adaptive than there was in a locked progression system. Since valiant gauntlet began, I haven’t done EQ more than a half-hearted run when my energy was way too high.
This is significantly better, the outrage that’s been all over the forums today for the content (not the maintenance) is baffling to me
