    Just make the title for 100% A6 and AoL 100% like what @Worknprogress suggested. It’ll stop all the whining.

    And when players finally reach that level, they’ll know why it’s set there.

    (I’ve always been a proponent of Story Quest Milestone Titles being put in Exploration. It sets the expectation and min requirement for the title, rather than just unit-manning it once and leaving it alone.)

    I agree that it shld be a6 100% (even though I’ve only explored chapters 1-2), but I feel like the progression is story-based so Abyss shouldn’t be a part. TBH, I think they shld require Act 6 exploration and like Act 7 Chapter 1 exploration.
    they already stated that they cannot use act based progression because they are no longer making acts more and more difficult.
    I know but they shld be
    not if the story content is no longer difficult. If it is not difficult then it is not a progression event.

    It shouldn't be for completion it should be for exploration there isn't enough of a progression difference to deem a title necessary!

    To be really clear here (and let the dislikes pour in), this is meant to be a differentiating factor between players in the Cavalier progression level, and those that are far advanced from there.

    As you guys are well aware, there is a huge breadth of players that have hit Cavalier status, from those that have beaten Act 6 Chapter 1 just once, to those that have explored Abyss of Legends, and take on the Grandmaster and Champion bosses daily just for fun.

    It becomes extremely difficult for us to make content that targets everybody in that group when one end is so far ahead of the other. As we moved away from making Act content our measuring stick for Summoner Roster and Skill Progression, we had to move to other measurements. Having 1x Rank 3 6-Star is quite low on the scale of differentiation since many of these Summoners have quite a lot more.

    If you haven't hit that point yet, that's okay. There's still a lot for you to benefit from as a Cavalier, and those benefits will help you as you progress and grow towards the next level.

    I didn't read this comment before. But I'm starting to understand why they did it, I guess r3 6* was their only way out currently, that's understandable I guess.
    I like to think of it as this way, putting their gates being 6* r3, they're expecting a fairly developed 5* roster too, which means content can be catered to them. The majority of players have been complaining about specific fights or niche fights, which are targeted mostly towards throne breakers.

    In future, this gap allows us to keep in line with content released, and not putting up with extra hard content that's on higher end of difficulty just because the upper players brought the average up. It's a win-win situation maybe.

    By forcing to nerf the requirements, remember that you'll also have to put up with extra hard content that's not aimed at you in the first place, it'll be an endless stream of just complaining..

    I understand that there can be a big gap between players that 100% act 6 and 100% abyss and between players that only did completion of act 6.
    But they need to do it differently maybe let two options for it, the current one or getting one of the titles from 100% act 6 or from completion of abyss.
    This way you know they have the t5cc but no need to rank champs they don't want if they got unlucky with the 6* pulls.
    With their current decision they differ f2p from spenders that pop lots of crystals.

    I have two paths done in Abyss and initial clear of Act 6 and I still wont have this title. Sounds like BS to me. My only option is to rank 3 Rocket, nebula or Red Skull. I think having the t5cc should be enough for the progression instead of forcing me to use it on a champ I dont want to use it on. What purpose does it serve to force me into a rankup that I dont want to do and wont help my roster.

    Really excited for this. Rewards dont seem great but I always felt like there should be a big difference between the top end of players. Title isnt going anywhere and 6 stars have become more abundant. Keep opening crystals and you will be able to pass the gate :)

    if she is so good then why isnt there any gameplay out there of her at r3 that isnt on some sort of beta.

    there are plenty of champs in the tech class I would take to r3 over nebula. Again forced into making a rankup i dont want to make.

    Shes definitely an option but I would never say shes a great option
    Then you dont get the title. Waiting for the perfect rankup is stupid imo. If you want the title right now then rank up nebula which is pretty underrated...or keep playing the EQ and abyss and get the title once you have met the qualifications.

    worth is relative. There are a lot of worthy rankups bypass becuase they are waiting for an even better, and in that time they could have done so much better and gotten more rewards.

    Isnt worth taking up is purely subjective. Its upto you whether you want to rank her up or not. Weigh the pros and cons. If you arent gonna rank 3 her then you arent getting the title which means you dont think its worth it so I dont see the problem. Cavalier title is good enough for most ppl in this thread, specially those who havent explored 6.4 and abyss.

    but why should a progression title be based on whether I want to hit a button or not to rankup a champ. Sure I can hit that button and have an R3 champ any time I want. But this title is basically forcing me into hitting a button. Seems like a really silly requirement. And If you dont think so then give your head a shake.

    The thing about rare resources is that, when people say “I have no one to upgrade.” It generally means “I have no beyond god tier champs as a 6* to rank and will not accept any other choice except A B or C.”

    Absolutely. There are many Champs worth taking up that aren't on the short list. People don't want to bother if they're not "God Tier".
    Of course not. These are literally the rarest resources in the entire game by a longshot. Nobody wants to use those kinds of resources on a “pretty decent” character. I wouldn’t, & you would’ve either. I’m holding out for Corvus.
    I would.

    Then you’d be wasting you’re hard earned t5cc the rarest rank up resource in the game... I don’t get it y’all will defend anything kabam does no matter how unnecessary and stupid it is... tell me please are you an endgame player also or no
    If its the title is that important to you then yeah I would advise to rank 3 a character. But obv the title isnt that big of a deal right now.

    No they're not. They aren't dupped. You need a dup to keep up with the prestige rank, if you rank anybody especially an Omega red for r3 6* with 0 dups will hold you back even further than simply waiting for the dup. These items are still way too rare to rank up, unfortunately a title is tied to it.
    Then thats on you to not rank them up not kabam. I would personally rank them up except sabre. Def mags and colossus but you are waiting for the near perfect situation which has its downsides like every other decision in the game.

    'If you dont have the same opinion as me it means you are stupid, pls follow the hivemind and not think by yourself'. Cmon man we can do better. Progression titles have always been rewarded to those that hit buttons lmao. I am very interested in seeing someone get cavalier without hitting a button. Like I said weigh the options and decide for yourself. Ppl in this thread act as if thronebreaker title is gonna be break the game or they have to have hit so if its that significant then isnt rank 3ing a character that isnt your a top choice a small price to pay?
    there are alot of people that have the rankup materials to get a champ to r3 but just dont have a champ they deem worthy to make that move or a champ that they will have fun using at R3. I think its silly to stop them from getting that title solely based on hitting a rankup button. I never said anything about breaking the game but I do think it is unfair that they will miss out on a reward bump even though they have progressed far enough in the game to get the title minus hitting the rankup button.
    Clearly the requirement isnt whether you have the rankup resources. The title is based on 3 things: 'skill', rankup materials AND champion. Everyone is only looking at the first 2 and getting mad when there is a 3rd requirement to differentiate the top players. I personally believe that someone shouldnt complain about the requirement unless they have explored all of Act 6 and abyss and still have that problem but I can assure that there is a very valid way to get the title from that position.

    You don't need a Dup to increase your Prestige. That happens with any first R3 6*. Further to that, any decent Champ will bring a Roster further to use. Not just the God Tiers. I mean, unless someone Ranks a Champ that's completely one-dimensional.

    So I don’t just have the resources for a rank 3 and have act 6 100%.... I have 2 SCIENCE T5CC..... given that I have no science I feel comfortable ranking as a 6*, I think it is a very bad choice to base a progression title on an RNG rank up material.

    This is a choice that you have to make. You are under no pressure to choose one of those Champions if you don't want to. This title is not going anywhere. As T5CC become more common, you'll have more choices, but at this time, this is the way that we have decided to separate the next tier in a way that takes into account both your progression in-game, and your roster progression.
    Then stop putting trash into the 6* pool. This is a complete RNG title. Get lucky with the champs you pull and the t5cc. Completing act 6 takes skill, Getting the right champs is RNG and should not be a part of a freaking title.
    This is why they should make the featured 6* crystals much better,..so they are basing it on RNG,... that’s fine if they have a 100% guarantee that a champ you can get from a crystal is premium. To me that is the justification of spending the extra 5000 6* shards,..but when there’s still Yondu/ Ultron/ oml / WS/ Rulk/ kk...and so on,..in a featured?

    No ones gonna R3 those.

    By tying the "title" which I couldnt give a flip about, to offers, discounts, cryatals, etc. This becomes a problem for everyone with bad 'RNG'

    If you’re in a position to have access to the title dictated by rng you haven’t progressed far enough to be need it in the first place.

    You’re basically saying I want that progression level those guys further than me have without going through everything they have gone through.
    Umm... But there will be those who will get the title ONLY because they were lucky enough. So do they need the title? But those who got sfrrwd by RNG don't need?
    Good for them being lucky, do they need it nah they might not even deserve it or be able to make use of it but that is neither here nor there. Like I said if the title is being dictated by rng for you, you haven’t progressed far enough.
    Isn’t it called a story progression title or am i mistaken?
    Yup, this is also Kabam, people practically play this game just because they’re so haphazard about rolling out new things. No surprise they got wording wrong. Checkmate.
    Bro cmon you rlly think it’s a necessary requirement to have a r3it’s been story based progression title and there’s never been other requirements like they aren’t giving the players that are in between being a full on endgame player like yourself who has everything 100% done and a basic player that just got cavalier any middle ground I have half of act 6 explored and completed it a couple months ago and everything except abyss done besides that... I have 24 six star champs none of which are from cav crystals and I don’t even have a r2 yet bc none of them are worth a r2 let alone r3 the closest I am to a t5cc is both half a tech and half a cosmic and no good options for when I form them.... would u if you were kabam keep this requirement or no?
    When all of us against the act 6 nerfs said story content has always been aimed at the end game players, everyone else said just bc its always been like that doesn't mean it should. Welp, here ya go. Sometimes things change and you don't always like them.
    What’re u saying? Who exactly was against the act 6 nerfs and why would they be? What do you mean act 6 is still targeting endgame players just like before they just toned down attack and Health which was necessary when you were losing stupid amounts of health on block or even parries. Also kabam put bs money grabbing boss fights and path fights purposely so as a result of their greediness they finally listened to reasonable concerns and changed some like the champion fight... they’ve always been called story based progression title as in you don’t need any other random requirement not pertaining to how far you are into story mode so how ab we keep it that way
    If you think what act 6 is now and what act 7 is is targeted at actual end game players, you're absolutely fooling yourself. I explored the beta about as easily as a monthly EQ. That's not targeted at "end game players". Story content is a joke now for the upper tiers

    Everyone seems to want to have their cake and eat it too. Oh this is too hard make it easy for me, oh but I want a good star for beating it too. Come on guys. A single R3 is nothing when it comes to this point in the game, I have 10. Even without spending what I do, I'd have multiple.
    The new beta was easy to clear the lane no deaths if you have a good roster of counters. The original beta was brutal you would be dropping team revives to clear a lane and some paths had only one counter for several fights. It is not hard easier than 6.4 before the nerf. I am not even top 100 aq or war and have 5 r3. New content is not going to be brutally hard any more just a challenge where you have to pay attention. Cavalier was easy the only challenge was 4 star usage.
    I would be happy if they made it 100% act 6 and at least one path in abyss. Then all this whining would stop about RNG but shift to it is too hard.
    Initial clear of Abyss is incredibly easy if you have a dup 5 star or 6 star Aegon on any level. I think the complaints would actually be less.

    You guys got to stop being disingenuous when it comes to ranking up just any old champion. The prestige race is real and people get booted everyday for having terrible rank ups that hold their roster back prestige wise. This is what these guys are waiting to do. Everyone in my alliance has at least 1 t5cc but some have no dups that are worthy. Asking someone to rank up any undupped champion is disingenuous. I better see KG or Kingpin on your profile or some worthless champion on your roster at r3 if you want to speak on others rankups.

    This is coming from a guy with 3 total t5cc right now that I haven't used yet waiting for the right dup or champ to give it to.

    Let me get this straight. You get booted for not having a high enough prestige but tons of ppl in your alliance dont have a rank 3 and you are waiting for a prestige option meaning a high prestige champ + awaken + dupe? Under these circumstances you arent getting booted cuz you might have to wait an eternity for this situation? That alliance is a **** one if they boot you out cuz you ranked up an unduped 6 star.

    Yeah, that's the whole point. I want to feel good about the rankup and I have that option. I'm saying its not cool to put the new story progression with that gate. Overall the title is super easy to get so I'm not mad about it just saying I feel for the people who have to force a rankup. Not hard to understand.

    You arent forced to do anything...unless you count as completing content as also being forced then I have no argument. You are making a choice by weighing the pros and cons
