Arena BC per fight rewards significantly lowered?

Device and Version: Samsung Galaxy Note 10 plus (SM-N975U1)

Device Operating System: Android 10, Samsung One UI 2.0

Mobile Carrier: Tmobile

Cellular or WiFi: I was using WiFi. Did not check if the same in Cellular

Game Version Installed: 1012370

Game Mode: Arena. I checked 3*, 4* basic and featured, 5*

Champions Affected: All. I tried 3-6* champs and the BC rewards seem to change based on the arena I'm playing vs the even 75 BC per fight previously.

Active Boosts: No

Description of the Issue: Arena BC rewards per fight used to be an even 75 per fight and 300 per round of 3. Then now are fluctuating. As low as 15 BC in 3* arena, 25 BC in 4* basic, 25-40 in 4* featured and 40-60 in 5* feat arena. I've even seen it change from 60 to 40 within one round of 3 and 25 to 40 in another round (only 2 rounds).

I started playing this morning after 6pm PST. I was playing 3* arena when the maintenance hit at 8pm PST. I was playing to use my champs so as to hit my arena grind targets and immeadiately noticed the BC reward changes.

This is a big change (15 vs 75 BC) so I'm assuming this is a bug. I would expect a change like this to be announced properly.

Please feel free to check my account and the logs between 6am and 640am pst. My user name is sfsilicon.

Screenshot or Video: I have screenshots that I can send, but dont see an option to attach here.

The amount of battlechips you get for each fight in arena is, I believe, dependent on what champ you beat. 6* give you 60, 5* give you 40 and so on. I've never it seen it give a flat 75 (though I wouldn't complain)

Thanks for the comment. I was tracking my arena grinding and rewards for 2-3 weeks before the maintenance. I don't have a screenshot but I'm pretty sure it was 75 BC per fight independent of the arena or champ. This might be a bug that Kabam has now fixed but. I'm also pretty sure that I was getting 40-60 BC for 6* fights in 5* featured arena and got the changed from 25 to 40 BC in a 4* arena.

I appreciate if folks would share what they are seeing by arena and which champs. A statement from Kabam would help too if they fixed a bug with the 75 BC per fight.

Pretty sure it's not what champ YOU are using but what champ you are beating (6* award 60, 5* award 40, 4* award 25, 3* award 15, haven't checked 2* in a while). That's how it's always been for me.

Yes, it varies, depending on what Star version you fight against, might even be dependent on which arena too (?? like maybe Cat vs Hero arena). But definitely is NOT the same across the board entirely.

Okay to close. I think I was mistaken. I check several live streams from last week and can see the per fight rewards being dependant on the champ that was defeated as per SummonerNR comment about.

sfsilicon

Is this correct?

15bc for 3*
25bc for 4*
40bc for 5*
60bc for 6*

This is for the champion you defeat not the one you use.

@sfsilicon yeah I've never seen 75 BCs per fight in this Arena in the 3+ years I've been playing. Here's what I've allocated info wise per Arena.

1-2* Arena -
5 BCs per fight (2* vs 1*; 1* vs 1*)
10 BCs per fight (1* vs 2*; 2* vs 2*)/300 per round

3* Feature Arena -
10 BCs per fight (3* vs 2*; 2* vs 2*)
15 BCs per fight (2* vs 3*; 3* vs 3*)/300 per round

4* Basic Arena -
15 BCs per fight (4* vs 3*; 3* vs 3*)
25 BCs per fight (3* or 4* vs 4*)/300 per round

4* Feature Arena -
25 BCs per fight (5* vs 4*)
40 BCs per fight (4* vs 4* or 5*; 5* vs 5*)/300 per round

5* Feature Arena -
25 BCs per fight (4* vs 4*; 5* vs 4*; 6* vs 4*)
40 BCs per fight (5* vs 5*)
60 BCs per fight (6* vs 6*)

I didn't try a 4* vs 5*, 4* vs 6*, or 5* vs 6* in 5* Feature. So there's a trend I'm seeing. The higher tier champs available for the particular Arena get the higher amount when fighting against a tier equal to, or greater than themselves (when available). If the higher tier is fighting against a champ that's a tier lower, you get a lower BC payout. I'm sure a few more combos could be covered, but those are the lowest to highest BC payout per fight, and round. If you miss a win in a round of 3, the round payout drops. However, not once did I get a payout of 75 per fight, and honestly have never seen that. Hope this helps display the general payouts per win in each Arena.
