    So how we getting those 1 stars. I don’t have any lol

    We're bringing back the Hero Crystal. It's a special Crystal with 1 and 2 Star Champions. It will live in the Store somewhere, but you can purchase them for more 1 and 2-Star Champions.

    Note that this is NOT the Collector Crystal, which includes "Exclusive" 2-Star Champions.
    Can you clarify if there’s a way to acquire champs that don’t require units?
    Not right now, but we've run those crystals in other places in the past. They may come back in the future, but I don't know when/if that will happen.
    They should be rewards for 1v1 arena, needing to buy 1* champs for 50 units is absurd. It’s getting milked for a useless champ. I’m fine with needing to use your roster but asking us to pay for 1* champs because we can’t access them is ridiculous.
    You don't have to do this right now. In the future, we may have events like we have had in the past that gives access to 1-Star Champions. I don't have a timeline or a definitive answer on if that will be happening, but this is permanent Content and is not going anywhere.

    Then the decision is pretty simple for you, are the 4* ranks worth the rewards? Probably not for you and an account your size won’t miss them anyway.

    Actually those rank up gems are quite handy now that they include 2016 and there are maybe 2 AGs I wouldn't mind getting (especially tech for my Warlock)

    To those complaining because you sold champs and would need to spend units for 1* and 2* champs, you only have to spend units because of YOUR decision to sell champs. Just because you didn’t have any use for them for a long time didn’t mean you had to sell them. It’s not like it was ever hurting you to keep those champs. Even before this Variant, not selling champs has always been the smart decision for long-term progress. I get that it may have been an early-game progression mistake, but at least you’re getting a chance to fix that mistake at all, just for a price.

    Ok so now you’re just contradicting yourself, saying that it’s a waste of resources but you also want the rewards. Can’t be both.

    So these will be the basic champs from the Pnc and the old daily crystal??? @Kabam Miike

    OMG ! 2015/2016? all my 5* mytic already max r4. There are only limited amount of 2015/2016. Kabam should do a cap on the gem we can get!

    Can we expect the opponents of the later chapters to also be of lower tier? I certainly hope you don't expect us to use a 1* to fight a 6* opponent in the last quest of variant 4

    Oh! Something that I've notice that a lot of Veteran players might not be aware of is that you can score 2-Star Champions from Completion of the Normal Difficulty of the Event Quest, and some of them are Rare 2-Stars. For instance, this month is Captain Marvel.

    Now, I don't have her as a 3-6 Star, so I'm hoping that I can use her in this Variant.

    3*?

    Idk I feel like people should realize by now selling 1-2* is a bad plan seeing we have had a couple 2* arenas already.

    In the fundamentals node: under one bar of power
    Will quake's damage count towards the reduction?

    Less than 1 Bar: Reduce all incoming Damage by 95%

    From the description I’d say yes

    So if you’re not uncollected, you can get 1* champs for free, but if you are, you have to drop at least 250 units for a full team? So it’s disadvantageous to be of further progression. How does that make sense?

    And as far as I’m aware, there has never been a use for 1* champs until this point. All other class restriction events were always 1 AND 2*s. This should have been the same. It’s not unreasonable for people to have sold 1*s because of that.

    Well, it was your decision to sell them... can't blame Kabam for that.

    Pretty sure Kabam don't want to give out champs so people can just sell them again and get shards, so, they will sell them. That seems reasonable.

    Sounds like it’s going to be a nightmare for people like me who don’t have 2* and 3* ranked up and only 11 maxed out 4* champs 🤦🏻‍♂️

    They have said for years to not sell your 2-3* champs.


    I have been playing for 20 months and I sold a ton of 2 and 3* champs during the first 6-9 months so almost all of my 2-3* champs are freah from about a year ago.

    And half have max sigs

    And I have 15 or so max 2 stars and the rest of my 2 stars are 2/20s m

    I have 27 max 3 stars. Mostly champs I like that I didn't have as 4-5 stas when I maxed them.



    The point is I only ranked any 2-3* champs for the level up event.

    Also they are so cheap to rank up.

    You can also auto fight for t1b and t2b and t1 and 2cc everyday for very low energy


    While also pulling level #2 health pots in the t2cc daily.



    With all due respect just don't be a neglectful or lazy summoner.


    Within 1 to 2 months you could max out another 30 + 2 or 3 stars at least using very minimal resources that will not affect your 4 + 5 stars at all

    You gotta remember this quest was released in 2015 once we get to 2016 quest we will get 16/17 gem

    Pretty sure that is exactly what will be. There is a reason why variant difficulty is considered harder lol

    There is literally no reason to sell champs ever. You get more rewards in the long run for not selling them.
  • Frivolousz21Frivolousz21 Member Posts: 438 ★★★

    I really hope they don’t release a crystal with 1-2*’s. Will teach people a lesson. Don’t sell champs, even if they “aren’t viable”

    9 1* champs
    88 2* champs 47 of them max level high sig
    142 3* champs 41 of them max level high sig

    Not our fault you sold them.

    I totally agree it's hilarious kabam never said that the low rarity champs would be useless going forward as you progress.


    now so many post whining about not having one start champs that you had that you were given for free and you sold you know that's on you that's your bad.

    How do you get more rewards from 1* champs in the long run once you are Uncollected+? You’ll no longer get them (for free) from the daily crystal, so you have no way of duping them & getting anything from them once you’ve become Uncollected.

    So you want end game players to waste T4B to rank up 4* just for this variant....

    Seriously?

    If you don't want to use those T4B, you can use ones that you've already ranked up, or if you're really skilled, not Rank them Past Rank 3 or 4. Of course it will be easier with Rank 5 Champions, but that's not necessary.

    But if you really don't want to use resources on 4-Star Champions, you don't have to do this Variant. There will be others, and every single one of them will be about using Different Champions in your Roster. I'm really excited about this one, because I've been asking for one where we can use 1 and 2-Star Champions since we started making Variant Difficulty quests!
    Agreed!
    It's probably only going to be 3 or (at most) 4 paths you'll be using 4 stars on anyway.
    Chances are, if you're doing Variant's, your roster can handle it. lol

    That’s your problem, not the team’s problem. You chose not to do that and now your complaining that you have to use the catalysts to rank up champs.

    So it's my problem and not the teams that I chose to not waste resources on champs that have been mostly outdated for 2-3 years compared to my better champs, and now would need them for a single event, taking resources from more worthy champs?

    That literally makes zero sense. I don't see why they couldn't do 5/6, 4/5, 3/4, 2/3, 1/2 and then just 1*.

    I'm sure the inevitable solution though will be deals on T4B to SELL YOU what you would need 🤦🏻‍♂️
    the only thing that doesn't make sense is your view of what you should consider out-dated.


    No one and no where does this game imply or specify that any champ rarity is out-dated.


    Kabam implicitly made it clear during the month that QUEEN OF THE ICE AGE "EMMA FROST" was INTRODUCED TO THE CONTEST THAT YOUR LOWER RARITY 2 TO 3 STAR CHAMPS WILL BE USEFUL SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE FOR CONTEMPORARY CONTENT.

    Roughly 15 months ago that contemporary content was danger rooms.


    Today that contemporary content is varient number 4.

    which just so happens to offer rewards that are way beyond the danger rooms.


    Bring it on

    Yeah because it makes perfect sense to keep champs that when maxed only have 2 specials & cant be duped once you are Uncollected+

    Not sure why they are being referred to as rare. Since if I started a new account I’d easily have them. To me it seems unfair for people who have been playing this game since 2015, became Uncollected years ago & don’t get them from daily crystals.

    Why does chapter 1 allow 5 & 6 star champs?? By your logic chapter one should only allow 6 star champs (something that wouldn’t effect seasoned players, but would effect newer players). Just because something doesn’t effect you, doesn’t mean it’s pointless.

    They were costing you something to keep? You gained something worthwhile from selling them? It made no sense to sell them bc there was no benefit. Everyone I've talked to that sold said they were tired of looking at them which is probably the most ridiculous reason I can think of
