Re: My issue with Adaptive difficulty
I don’t think that’s the direct intent. Rather, it is difficulty that scales with prestige, and rewards scale with difficulty. Prestige is being used as the metric for “roster growth” or “roster strength.” So the principle is: if your roster is stronger, the content you do should also be harder to keep it interesting. And if the content is harder, you should get more rewards for doing it.
Of course, because everything is entangled together, its is all related. Rewards scale with prestige, because it is all tied together. But I think the idea itself is not a bad one. We all want more rewards if the content is harder, and most of us don’t want to be beating up mannequins because we’re too strong for the content (although some of us do). Keeping it interesting and rewards keeping up are good objectives to shoot for. But whenever there are problems with implementation, it can be impossible to see the good intentions for all the chaos of things not working correctly.

Re: My issue with Adaptive difficulty
Another problem is that Adaptive EQ’s reward structure scales with prestige, which feels like the antithesis of what it’s aiming for — developing a deep roster.
You need a mutant that reflects physical damage or bypasses it altogether? Go for Negasonic or Dazzler. But who has the better prestige? Onslaught.
Granted, Onslaught does some things similar to Negasonic but you’re forced to develop your roster at the expense of getting more rewards which doesn’t sound right to me.
Re: My issue with Adaptive difficulty
I agree with you… but I will say that if they tuned down the health pools and damage for this month it would be a welcome band-aid solution.
They won't, but it would be nice if they did.

Re: My issue with Adaptive difficulty
I think you and I are on a very similar thought process about this.

Re: An honest plea to save eq for this month on a super simple way. A plea to kabam.
Its so simple to fix. Classic should give you all the rewards we where gettering before doing all difficulty. Elder Should have killer rewards if we choose to do it. I mean its crucible content. Nobody wants to do this every month, its the worst content they have made. Who the hell would do it for the same rewards we got before..It EQ its supposed to be fun and get you your monthly rewards as a side quest. Not hard content every single month. We need a break or we will just burn out and quit playing. Nobody is going to spend to do EQ KABAM, just forget about it, its always been content to just have something new to do every month and try to keep up as FTP.
Reading Comprehension
Currently it takes up about 1/3 of your screen before you enter a fight and about 2/3 of your screen just before the fight or when in the upgrade menu.
This is hard to read as it takes up less room on your screen and makes it more likely to miss some important line of text or node whereas something like global chat and the mail take up most of your screen to help with readability
Some suggestions I have to help with the readability Include
- Tapping and holding on a node or part of a characters kit zooms in/makes it larger so you can read the node/ability easier and focus on one part without getting overwhelmed by the wall of text
- When you pause the battle it would be nice to also be able to read the characters kits similar to how you can read nodes while you are paused. Both the Attacker and Defenders so that if you go in blind or have missed a line of text in one of the champions kits somewhere you have a chance to recover while in the battle (eg needing an armor up buff to fight Havok, or a Boss has gone from phase 1 to phase 2)
- A Fullscreen button for the nodes and champion kits that makes it take up the whole screen so you can browse through the nodes/kits easier
- Making the Description font brighter/more white and larger so that you can read more than just the title of a node at lower brightness levels
- Being able to rotate your screen vertically while reading nodes and kits so that the text is more readable on mobile devices
Re: My issue with Adaptive difficulty
Adaptive was a good idea but it was really badly carried out I love the lore EQ gives but I don’t think it’s worth it this month :(

Re: Who to rank 4?
Don’t know your specific goals or situation. My top 3 considerations would be these:
Kushala top tier mystic, tremendous functionality. (May take mine to R4 today).
Okoye is a nuke to anything that shocks or bleeds. Ensnared shuts down evade. (Have mine at R4).
Serpent is meta champ (dupe helps for D). Mine is R4. He’s a great attacker as well as defender. Just great on so many levels
Dark horse would be Bastion who is good in lots of spots. Mine still R3 (I have three Tech R4).
Others: Shathra is great on prestige, if that matters and if you can play her a great cosmic counter. Hit Monkey all nuke but not super durable or full of utility. Sinister great but top of mutant class is still Onslaught and Jean. R3 MrS still gets a lot done.

Re: No Points for an AW win?
A lot of people probably didn't bother playing because there's no point if it doesn't hurt you.
Re: No Points for an AW win?
war is frozen
but you must continue the season when they should have cancelled it. Reset the standing to last season and fixed there game. Now they nerf the masses. They banned half alliance for playing event quest and stung us for 8 hour not really fair to punish people to claw back lame rewards anyways. It’s like kabam got up in September and was like right let’s sink the contest. So far they have ruined event quest in exchange for better daily ones. They have upset many. They have ruined alliance quest with rewards bans they have ruined alliance war with game problems I’m now at the point where I’m considering selling up on eBay now. I’m not spending hours to grind for phc crystals 3-4 star champs and 5-6 star champs when I have 31 r3 and 6r4 champs not a chance lol
