**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.

How can 3 years of luck be this bad?

I have been playing this game for about three years, i have finally drawn thirteen 5* champs all unduped, lots of Sig Stones, and an Awakening gem. So what's wrong with this picture Kabaam?

Drax unduped
Venompool unduped
Iron Man unduped
Iron Patriot unduped
Elektra unduped
Hawkeye Unduped
Yellow Jacket unduped
Spider Man unduped
Spidergwen unduped
Rhino unduped
Antman unduped
Iron Fist unduped
Juggernaut unduped

Mutant Awakening Gem x1
Generic Sig Stone x13
Cosmic Sig Stone x16
Tech Sig Stone x14
Mutant Sig Stone x16
Skill Sig Stone x11
Science Sig Stone x7
Mystic Sig Stone x11

So in three years not a single 5* dupe, and I received a 5* Mutant Awakening Gem, so naturally for this game I can't pull a single Mutant 5*. This means all the grinding, or deal purchases are a complete waste of my time because I can't use anything. Then we are going to get 6*? I can't even progress a single 5* IN 3 YEARS!

    Yeah the First year was rough, as in, I didn't understand Arenas or Alliances, so I ground out Story and Monthly questing, catalysts and stuff. So two years of Arena and Alliance grinding though.

    Btw, I've yet to see a 5* awakening gem.....is it a Act5.3 reward, or an offer ?

    Well you are not playing it much then. In 2 years of the game, without shopping, I have been able to open like 280k 5* shards (11 featured 15k, 9 normal 10k and I have like 30 sitting waiting for December). Probably you don't hit milestones in arena, or don't win wars in high tiers. By the way, I have 4 5* awakening gems I can't use, along like a hundred stones of various colors and generic. One day the lucky pull will come

    Elektra is amazing unduped, drax, hawkeye and yellow jacket are very good even unduped and venompool has his circumstantial uses unduped. Your luck is not that bad compared to other people I have seen, a recent player I know opened 2 5 star crystals and got and duped she hulk on top of that his first 3 5 stars were iron patriot, antman and iron man literally the worst of the worst pulls

    5* have only been playable for about 1.5 years. You have not been opening 5* crystals for 3 years (which is what it sounds like you're saying) for 2 reasons, the one mentioned above, and the game officially came out in December 2014.

    I been playing since January 2015, said almost three years, getting there. took me till this summer to finally pull 4* that were decent. I did get by game content on SW, Thor, Storm, and Classic CAP. Most the rest were trash. I do grind milestones in arenas, put don't have time to grind champs. I did get a lucky run right before summer in to summer. Got SL, BW, Wolverine, DS finally.

  • Mr_PlatypusMr_Platypus Posts: 2,777 ★★★★★
    Sounds like me, 11 5* and 0 dupes.
    Though I did pull an iceman so no complaints with that

    @wok, that's a reward at the end of 5.3.

    It is beyond frustrating at times.

    I'm in the same boat. I remember 4* were like this for me too. I had 30 of them with only 4 duped at one point. I'm hoping the addition of 6* means 5* becomes easier to obtain, easier to dupe, and easier to rank up.

    This game has been a mixed bag for me. I regards to luck I feel that despite it being random, the luck some people get is extreme at best. I have had the worse of luck in getting mystic champs. There are long stretches of time when my pulls are of laughable calibre.

    Yet to advance in this game certain champs definitely gives one an upper hand. If you dont have them, burning your paycheck is the only way.

    I'm up 2 16 5 stars, I've never duped one
  • danielmathdanielmath Posts: 3,974 ★★★★★

    how did you get the 4th awakening gem?
  • chaos3430chaos3430 Posts: 126 ★
    My first almost year as stated was mostly story and monthly event grinding, I have been in Alliance and Arenas for the last two years grinding. I have tons of 4*, I do keep duping the same ones, especially Spidergwen,
  • chaos3430chaos3430 Posts: 126 ★
    I used purchased awakening gems to dupe my 4* Thor, X-23, CAPWII, and SW just to be able to continue progressing and finish ROL.

    I've been playing about two years. Have 9 5-star champs, and have duped iron patriot twice. I think I win the bad luck contest. But still grinding and having fun.
