Re: BG rewards have been secretly nerfed
"Buy whatever you want" does not translate to buying everything you want in any language" Lol ok chief. Before, I was able to buy whatever I wanted, now I no longer am. Tell me how this is better for me 🤌🏻
My point is not I'm doing less than before and getting the same. My point is I am doing the same as before, and now getting less. Before essentia, I wasn't doing war, I did aq and I did BGs. Now I still don't do war, I do aq and bgs. But since essentia is now combined, I get less from aq and bgs because some of that is distributed into war, which I didn't and still don't do. So effectively my rewards have been nerfed for doing the same thing as before.
Re: BG rewards have been secretly nerfed
they sold it as you can do whatever game mode you want and get essentia to buy whatever you want, what they didn't mention was now you'll have much less currency to buy stuff if you don't do every single game mode since they're all combined. I haven't gotten anywhere near enough essentia for the week to buy what I want, and I end up having to forgo stuff so I have enough essentia for the following week to buy stuff I want, because next week the pitiful amount will barely be enough to cover purchases. And I don't even buy that many things. 2 t4a, 6* sig stones and 6* shards and I'm pretty much out

if you check the countdown timer on EQ, once it gets under 7 days, then the livestream for the next month's update is generally the next Friday morning
Re: BG rewards have been secretly nerfed
Okay, but common sense should tell you that you weren't going to get as much or even more for doing less. If you're going to do less content, you're going to get less currency. "Buy whatever you want" does not translate to buying everything you want in any language. If you thought you could do less and be no worse off, then you set yourself up for that unrealistic disappointment.
They still need to fix the currency. In reality, it should be considered a store update and everything should be more affordable in comparison to previous purchase prices. As it stands now, not only are some items more expensive, but everything is less within reach because the availability of currency is far lower than it should be.
Re: Is Scorpion a good champion for BGs?
Personal experience on banquet champs.
Hulkling - Performing really good in both war and BGs.
Nimrod - Still visible in BGs. Not so much in war.
X-23 - Absent from both BGs and War.
Valkyrie - Performing really good in BGs offense. Has really good niche uses in War.
Scorpion - Rarely seen. Has some uses in war.
Jane Foster - Can't comment. Rarely seen but I've been hearing really good comments.
Kingpin - Rarely seen. Has some uses in war.
Absorbing Man - Top tier in both war and BGs.
Re: BG rewards have been secretly nerfed
That may be your point, but it wasn't the point you made. Tell me where I said the new setup was better for you, please. Right now it's worse for literally everyone.
To the point I made, they've screwed up the currency. You are correct in saying that you should not be getting less for putting in the same effort and Kabam needs to correct that. Hopefully they will make meaningful changes to correct the issues with currency before the glory and BGs stores are gone for good.
Re: Is Scorpion a good champion for BGs?
The heavy charge is only recommended for matchups where you can't stack a lot of your debuffs (Onslaught, Photon etc) but for most matchups you're better off either spamming sp1 (Zola, Kindred etc) or just spamming sp2 (Solvarch, Nico, Thing etc). I've tested all his rotations and they're usually the same in terms of speed, with the only difference being the heavy charge one is extremely risky and can go terribly wrong if AI doesn't play ball, so if that's how most people here are using him then I can see why all the "meh" comments. They are using a risky rotation that 75% of the time is pointless, if you can stack enough debuffs properly just go for sp2 or sp1 spam you don't need any extra burst damage.
