BTW, case in point.. 👍️

Kabam has reached a whole new level of delusional lately. It honestly feels like they have no idea what to do and what not to do anymore. Their “main motive” seems to be making sure players are as frustrated as possible.

I mean, how do they not even understand the basic purpose of a monthly quest? Sure, they slap the word “adaptive” on it, but adaptive to who exactly? Because it’s definitely not adaptive to anyone playing - every fight feels like Everest content with defenders swinging 23k+ attack like it’s nothing. Super fun design choice…

And instead of tackling the endless bugs, crashes, and all the competitive integrity issues that are actually ruining the game, they waste resources changing stuff that wasn’t even broken. It’s like they go out of their way to fix what nobody asked for, while ignoring everything players actually care about.

If they really wanted to push this “adaptive prestige” nonsense, they should’ve just tied it to rewards and kept the fights fair. Defender attack should scale from the ground up, not start off at absurd levels.

At this point, it feels less like game design and more like Kabam’s running an endurance test to see how long players will stick around.

Yeah, they've essentially never updated the EQ nodes since 2020. Tech champions especially never seem to benefit from the nodes, whether it be heal block (not a lot of new Tech champions have that) or the Armor buff power drain. Even the Science nodes aren't beneficial since the small list of debuffs that qualify aren't really debuffs that newer Science champions place.

I did one completion of Classic just to see what Elder was like, and yup, it feels a lot harder than prior month's EQ (and harder than Wheel of Fate) with the same/worse rewards as prior months.

Gonna skip on Elder, and will probably not even explore Classic either.

I still don't understand why they dropped the energy refills we get a week to zero. I get lowering them if the removal of lower eq is the reasoning but then drop them from 6 a week to 3. To go to 0 a week just seems like a push for us to spend units on refills or the buy to daily energy card. I'd love to hear the reasoning why zero a week and 1 a month (from the calender) is now deemed an acceptable return. @Kabam (Osaurus) Rex @KabamPinwheel @Kabam Crashed

Nice damage control Kabam

Wait for better option

Look at the health pools and attack values here. One of these screenshots is from act 8 crucible. The other is from chap 1 elder eq. My prestige is 25k.

From my point of view, I'm looking at trying to do a more restrictive crucible that does not heal between fights and has rewards that don't feel like they're worth that kind of effort.

I was really excited for adaptive EQ but this feels like you guys had a great idea and then lost the plot somewhere along the way. I have a hard time believing any of you tried this out ahead of time.

Massive disappointment

It's not really even a win since they got rid of autocomplete. Previously if I needed a few Tier 1/2 catalysts to randomly rank up the new 2 or 3-star I got, I could just select Auto-complete and carry on with actually being able to try out that champion I just ranked up. Additionally, if I had excess energy I couldn't use because I'm locked into a hard quest but doing have the time to complete that quest, I could autocomplete to get some catalysts out of it.

Now? I have to do autofight and waste time doing nothing, and can't "burn off" excess energy either.
