**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event
**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

I'm at a dead point....advice?

Hi all
i don't know how to invest well my resources.

i have only 2 (bad) unduped 5* at 1/25, iron fist and og magneto....and a new 5* crystal coming
With the 6* coming i know it would be better to invest on 5*...but i also know that it would be best to wait until November to open the Crystal...

if i wait i must use some iso and cata on "old" 4*...maybe just to rank 3/30 and spend as less as possible waiting until november...

If I open the crystal now the chances of finding a good champ are low and if I don't take a good champion I will be forced to use my resources on 4* for quite some time..


Tips from those who have more experience?

many thanks in advance

    In order to not lose resources i usually upgrade all my 4* to atleast R3 and even max 3*. Really depends how badly you're overflowing. if you need to use T4B then R4 some decent 4*. Building a good roster for arena isnt a bad thing. You will still need 4* for arena in the future i am sure, just like 3* are used today for inf streak in the basic arena.

    If you can wait till November than do it. I know i wont be able to hold out that long lol I am already getting itchy waiting for September since it will have AV,CB, and NC which i would gladly take in 5*.

    I still upgrade 4* if they are a higher tier, and I would suggest you do the same until you get a better stable of champs. I am at a later point in the game, and I am r3 unduped 5* to use resources and get ahead of the game a little. But just recently I r5 4* hulk, AA, and thinking of some others. Especially where you are in the game, do not expect 6* anytime soon. I would r2 IF, and focus on some 4* unless you have full defense/offense for war that are r4/r5

    Where you are in game, I would work on upgrading SL, Ultron, Cap, crossbones, and whoever else you use a lot. Where you are in game, I wouldn't even save for 5*, I would keep upgrading your current roster and anything new you get

    extended explanation to previous post: You don't have many 5*. In order to get 6* shards, you need to dupe 5*. You currently have such a low chance to do that, so you need more 5*. Ways to get 5* shards are wars and quests that are available including Act 5, Rttl, and monthly. You need upgraded 4* to do this. 3 for AQ, 3 for AW attack, 5 for defense. You may dupe a 5* to upgrade within the next two months, but to speed up the time of 5* duping, keep upgrading 4* to clear content and join higher alliances

    So I can intelligently use my resources on 4* and wait at least September to open the 5* Crystal to have better odds than now...

    I think thats a good idea personally.

    ^agree

    Yes, open your 5* crystal in September. You need to work on that so you can get better scores in arena. Even a terrible 5* (sorry about your current 2...ouch), but even they get a lot of points. And you might pull a real star. There are good ones in there.

    waiting till september only increases the amount of champions you can pull lowering the probability to pull a good one as well as a bad one. you could wait and pull hulkbuster or IP or you could open now and get Starlord/elektra .its still 50/50 to pull good or bad
