Wow 21k is a decent chunk! TBH the delta should be awarded to folks who completed it before elder title’s release. Clearly a miscommunication but personally I’m happy to see the bump in T5A for getting elder.

No more regular incursions. There will only be the special occasional versions going forward

If the system works exactly how it was designed, then the information communicated during the livestream is wrong. If the livestream is correct then the system is wrong. One way or another this definitely shouldn't have happened.

As for joining EQ at the beginning of the month, the reasoning is actually pretty simple: We have the remaining carina challenges and an entire story chapter that we want to clear asap. The new AW season starts next week as well. I want to complete EQ as soon as possible so I can then focus on clearing the content that actually gives me meaningful rewards and takes time to prepare and clear.

I knew my prestige wouldn't increase above the next reward threshold, so there was no reason not to join EQ and get it done quickly.

Yeah it's pretty absurd. Especially since Kabam seems to value the T2 Dust as an 'expensive' and 'rare' item - if you go off of the currency stores, it's 8,525 Radiance for only 250 Dust (with the scaling radiance if you max it out). And with that restriction you're only allowed to get that 250 every 35-ish days. As for the Essentia store, it's 1,360 essentia for 100 Dust, which is the max you're allowed to get each week, making it a slower crawl to accrue dust.

With those metrics, they obviously view the dust as a high tier reward, but with releasing Carina's Challenges AND Act 9.4 in tandem - we're being given SO much dust in a burst, with not much at the moment to actually be able to spend them on.

I mean, for example I could be taking my Lizard up to Ascension lvl 2, but with how scarce these RNG class tokens are, I still don't have close to the 10 required to take him up, so I can't even use the 500 dust on him until I get those tokens that are not readily available in content.

Here's my thinking for these first rank 5s. Either rank the one you love or rank the one that is future proof. In the case of Tech that means someone that can counter neuroshock as it's the future of Mutants that Tech will need to counter.

For the one you love, that's up to you. For me, I'm with Scion above - Prowler to r5 would be sooo fun imo.

For future proof: the options are Maker or Ruby Thursday. I'd also argue Jack/Bastion as reverse control immune and counter the current Mutant heavy hitters. I'd also include Fantman as he's proven his utility (huge damage and power control) have stood up to the test of time.

For me, if I get a r5 tech gem, it's either Prowler for fun, or hold and see how Ruby Thursday is if I can get my hands on her when the titan rolls over (if she's in it).
