This is not the way to handle this. You're rewarding players for using an exploit. The fact that it's one particular set of top tier players makes it look worse...
Roll this decision back. Otherwise, you're just feeding the flames and conspiracies.
A bigger problem is that you, kabam, sow confusion in your player base. Is a generic 5* awakening gem a bigger prize than some quest rewards? You banned players for exploiting a quest to get rewards and they certainly didn't get a 5* ag. Players literally don't know what to do anymore. You hit hard and quick one second and the next... "eh, we're just gonna let this one slide". What are we supposed to surmise from these inconsistencies?
I just can't get over the fact that players have been punished for getting/using much lesser rewards than a damned generic ag. Your logic here may be that they "didn't know" but we all know that would be utter bs.
@chunkyb To build on what you wrote how many of those players do you think used the Killmonger exploit to utilize the rank up gem exploit?
All? Lol
Also, I need to not drink and forum. Sorry for the ag talk. I'm dumb. Still angry and it's still wrong lol
Kabam definately needs to rethink their fix for this. Everyone should have the same exact rewards for completing the same quest. No matter how quickly or long you take. The game was exploited and Kabam will do nothing to the whales once again.
This is just Kabam being lazy and not wanting to do the work to fix the rosters. Which is sad. Same reason they won’t ban known pilots permanently because these are the big spenders for them! I absolutely would’ve spent the money to 100% if I could’ve had 3 gems to use on anyone!! And if I had, I would’ve expected it to be fixed the right way, not just allowed to keep an obvious exploit that makes these rosters soooo much more powerful than they should be!! Which is exactly why YOU KABAM wanted them used on older champs in the first place!! But never mind just keep being lazy and let the spenders get away with whatever they want!
BUMP THIS. Kabam keeps screwing players over. Do not tolerate this. Give us what the people who abused it got. You guys consistently put new content thats bugged and now your only solution is changing the gem? Everyone would of finished this quest if we knew it was bugged.
May I suggest a proper fix, for everyone who finished early before the bug fix gets to keep their non 2015 rank up gems, plus they get additional 2015 rank up gems as per original rewards. For all other players who complete the quest after the fix, they get the 2015 rank up gems + the non 2015 rank up gems that early finishers got also. Simple fix everyone is happy, this is a kabam mess up after all.
Really lost motivation to finish this quest now. No point when I won’t get the same rewards as the ones that already 100% it. Talk about permanent content yeah whatever
Isn't exploiting a bug a call for a ban? They knew that it was supposed to be 2015 only and still did it. They should get the champ reverse and catch a ban. It's bs that people get to keep them with no consequences
Really lost motivation to finish this quest now. No point when I won’t get the same rewards as the ones that already 100% it. Talk about permanent content yeah whatever
Absolutely, busted through this money grab for the first run when it was first released... absolutely asinine how this “bug” is being addressed. I wouldn’t expect it to be handled any other way though. Smdh. Between this and the debauchery is seasons it might finally be time to retire after 3 1/2 years of this rat race.
Totaly unfair like usual with kabam
Most off the players that finished fast and get this reward are big one ...
That’s Why kabam make this decision like usual all benefits go go the same players 😤
This is very confusing desicion. You have choosen to allow people who in all honestly are probably already getting better rewards every week\month than everyone to rank up any champs due to an error of what rewards were given but have now changed it so that when the rest of us are able to beat it, we now get less from it? How is it at all fair to any other summons who didnt go nuts and finish within first day to get less rewards than the rest. If there was a bonus stated before hand that if you did finish fast or within a set time for better rewards like a legends run sort of thing them thats fine. But this was an error that you are allowing to benefit some players rather than others? Where or when is that the way you want your gamw to be known for doing?
I don't understand how Kabam thinks. There always seems to be an advantage given to players who finish things first and then those that want to take their time get punished. Examples are: The Unstoppable Colossus bug that was fixed in LOL. This month's quest where The Champion was granting Danger Sense to Blade (since fixed). Now, you expect the community to roll over and allow early finishes of the Ultron Challenge to have better rewards than those trying to be patient? How is any of this fair? Kabam needs to do the right thing and just change the rewards to what was already given to those that completed.
The only way they can fix this is by not fixing it, and let everyone have the same opportunity as everyone else that exploited this. Those people should have the same punishment as everyone who done the exploit in the past. This is practically an exploit that your not addressing to the summoners who knew this, everyone knew it was for 2015 champs and they still used it on their new champs without telling anyone.

Between this and the debauchery is seasons it might finally be time to retire after 3 1/2 years of this rat race.
Wait till it hits you that the people who exploited this bug the most are the same ones responsible for the debauchery that is seasons.

Very disheartening Kabam
The being lazy argument is easy to buy into but I don’t believe it’s accurate. Kabam reversed multiple exploits during the beta testing that was done to fix the overheating phones issue. I don’t think we’ve heard anything on this yet because it’s the weekend. No way to know if I’m right though.
Kabam, are there any players who could have benefitted from the glitch who didn’t exploit it? Because to be coherent, you should then rank down their 2015 4/55 champ and allow them to rank up a newer champ, like the other players did.
And for that matter, it’s the first variant quest, you can make it a gem that covers all the years the game has been out. Fix it for the second back issue event quest. Heck, make that one a 2015 gem.
Kabam again you screwed up! In the past if individuals took advantage of a glitch you issued bans!! Now when it matters you just turn a blind eye! You talk all the time about keeping the game fair and then pull this. What’s good for one needs to be good for all. Allowing accounts to progress at an exceleerated rate due to pay to play to just b.s.
Your blanket robot responses are disappointing and sad.

Similar action was taken for this past January’s Void/Sentry featured crystal mixup
Kabam, you really need to rank down the champs who the gems were used on and make the players rank 2015 champs like the gems were intended. This glitch was your fault and you need to fix it. It is not fair to the rest of the community to let this go as is.
Comments
All? Lol
Also, I need to not drink and forum. Sorry for the ag talk. I'm dumb. Still angry and it's still wrong lol
lmao, might as well rename this thread “Mercenary Crystal 2.0”
Very disheartening Kabam
True probably not yet but content is permanent why you think ROL still exist with old champs ability.

Was it 8/10 or 80/100, was your survey bias in any way?
LOL love random stats.
If kabam is too lazy to go revert the rank ups then really as mentioned a good idea would be to give both 2015 and all-champ rank up gems.
If they leave it as is I would be terribly surprised.

Then the ppls who actually only used it on 2015 champs will complain...
