I think it's about time Kabam addressed the 6* dupe issue

Corkscrew

Traditionally, when you dupe a champ, you get shards for the next star tier up.
We don't have 7* champs in the game hence no 7* shards.

At the moment, when you dupe a 6* you get levels on the sig ability, in some cases sig level scaling is critical and in other not so much. It would be nice on top of those sig levels and iso to get some shards. Even 275 6* shards would be better than nothing (but more would make more sense).

The humongous elephant in the room is duping a max sig 6*. It is literally worse than duping a 4*. You've basically flushed 10,000 6* shards (maybe even 13k or 15k) down the toilet.

I don't have a max sig 6* yet, but I've seen other people's effort amount to nothing. It's pretty disheartening.

Pre 6* 5* champions want their discussion back.

It's obviously not something they plan on doing anything about right now. More people getting higher sig 6*s has also coicincided with them slamming the brakes on 6* sig stones even for sale. That should tell you that they're gonna keep dragging this out and would rather slow people down in sigging up 6*s than do anything differently with pulling a max sig champ again.

It is one of the reasons for introducing r4 materials. End of act 7 should be r5 champs and next act should introduce the 7 stars. Something I am not looking forward too BTW.

Lol r3’s have been building up for what a year and a half? Two years? But we’re gonna get r5 6*’s and 7*’s within the next year?

You’ve lost your marbles bro

IKON

I'd like to see max sig crystals be the way wish crystals are introduced.

The traditional schedule would disagree. Usually finishing one act = one level up in progression.
Act 4 100% = 5/4
Act 5 = 5/5
Act 6 = 6/3
By this schedule, Act 7 100% should = 6/4

Just my opinion mainly seeing the top alliances duping the max sig 6 stars again and again. I have only 50 6 star champs and my last 6 crystals have been dupes with giving only iso. Also I said end of act 7 which is a year away if schedule keeps up and act 8 is another 3 months away. Not so crazy to think we will have that.

We also never say cats offered for cash before content before r4 cats. So they may speed up the acquirement of materials for r5 6 star. Almost everyone was surprised by that move. So, it is possible that by end of act 7 we could have our first r5.

Man some of you really love adding 2+2 and getting 5 somehow

Buff the iso. It is pathetic that we get the same amount of iso for duping a 6* as a 4* they should also buff the iso in 5*s.

Meh. We can have our expectations can't we? We had a person asking for 6 star ag selector and people laughed at him and bam, few days later we get a bunch on spring cleaning event. So, I am not saying it's set in stone, but I am not ruling it out either because of the quickness of 6 star shards flowing now.

lol wonder what those guys are thinking now

TheTalents

Yeah I think Kabam should've addressed this ages ago. I have 66 6 stars and I'm in a top 30 Alliance, top 20 hero rating overall. So Kabam may feel like players are rolling in 6 stars but its just not true.

PLS FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE BUFF THE ISO AMOUNT.

(It was internally painful for me to dupe 6* Gambit twice in a row while under 10 6* and not being able to fully upgrade on either occasion)

StevieManWonder

I’d like for this to be addressed too, I just recently pulled my first max sig six star (Void) and it was incredibly disappointing to just flush 10K six star shards down the toilet. I would rather have pulled the new iron fist next to him.

Expectations lead to anger. Anger leads to complaint threads. Complaint threads lead to the dark side... I sense many expectations in you.

Nah, I rarely complain against Kabam for my expectations which is just having fun managing my resources. And I am FTP, so I have 0 max 6 stars, so Kabam can release 7 stars whenever they want, it won't make much of a difference to me.

Yup. Another year another star…same ol same ol

If you dupp a max sig, you don't flush down 10000, but 9450

Seriously tho, you have got a point and while idt 7* shards should be introduced, some better rewards would be spot on.

How 9,450?

If Kabam keeps to schedule, 6 star shards were announced pretty close to act 5.3 announcement. So, it is possible that 7 stars could be announced when act 7.3 releases. No one other than Kabam devs can confirm this.

Stop talking out of your ass

Which part do you disagree with? That 6 star shards were introduced close to 5.3? because that is a fact. or that 7 star may come close to 7.3? because I said it is possible they could do it.

I know that was tongue in cheek, except this isn't a game that's establishing itself. It just had a 6 year anniversary. They have way more money and way more resources than when they started. They're no longer just figuring things out.... or at least they shouldn't be.

That doesn't mean it shouldn't be open for discussion. No one expected r4 materials to show up now... yet here they are. That's mixed messaging in relation to "slamming on the brakes".

Funny thing is they increased the chances to pull a 6 star from cav and featured cavs and I have been seeing more 6 stars being pulled from cavs which is to be expected. So, forget sig stones, a really decent spender could get 6 stars more easily now than ever.
