    That is just awesome. Hope the complete rewards would be great. I have no chance of exploring.

    @Kabam Miike Will there be much gold as a reward? We will have items to raise champions, but how are we going to rise without gold?

    Why are you broke? I have 35 million gold and I’ve done 7 rank 3s in 2021. I don’t grind arena.

    Have they said anything about fixing the game in relation to this content? No way I’m going to explore that with how frustrating the game is to play

    Summoners!

    With the Summer of Pain coming to an end, we're going to be changing the Summer Of Pain Peak Milestones to pay out to you all at the end of this week's fight! That means you don't have to wait until the end of the event for the rewards!

    But what about the final Quest? Well Summoners, we're going to let you in on a little secret... The final week consists of a very different quest. This quest consists of multiple paths where you'll face off against the Summer Of Pain bosses one more time before facing the final Boss! A challenge of this calibre demands its own set of objectives and rewards!

    Keep an eye on your Message inbox after the Summer of Pain event ends for your Rewards, and prepare for the last dastardly Challenge in the final weeks of the Summer of Pain!

    What's up with the extra point from darkhawk's challenge?

    While this a pleasant surprise and is great to hear it is also bitter sweet. Knowing that the current milestones were going to end sooner than later at an earlier date would have been good to know. I understand this was meant to be a surprise and again much appreciated. I was under the assumption that there would be some more objectives heading into the final 2 weeks of SOP and so I didn't go all out cause of not having a good counter to week 3 and then not wanting to mess with the science objective this past week. So now I will be short 2 points for the final milestone. Some may argue that I should have gone all out or made more time which is fine they are entitled to their opinion, but I am sure I am not alone with this situation. It is what it is and if nothing I will just have to worry about 2 points for the next mile stone cause shooting for 25 is meaningless when I just need 23 now. Again do appreciate the early rewards, but for something like and the magnitude of the rewards having a definite end to the milestones and objectives would have also been great.

    Since week 4, we get 4 points per fight as TB. It was obvious that week 9 fight would be point 27. Why would you think there will be bonus points beyond 27?

    What's happening with the extra point?
    For those that did do it and are now at max, should they leave 1 objective and complete it after the point has been reversed?

    Cause there are 2 weeks left of SOP and the countdown on the event was for 2 more weeks. Most, if not the whole community, thought the last 2 weeks would follow the same format and have 4-8 more objectives bringing the total points you could get to 31-35. Yes we were told the content for the last 2 weeks would be different but no real mention about a change in reward structure or the points that could be acquired.

    I don’t know anyone or came across any postings that feel there will be points beyond 27.

    The same secret like the fix for the Parry Bug?

    I’m also waiting for the extra Darkhawk point to be removed. Leaving a point unclaimed until it disappears, so hopefully there’s time to claim the other.

    Just wanted to say that SOP has been a great event. It gave us all something to look forward to each week. Especially folks who are currently caught up on permanent content. And the rewards are definitely nice. The one fight/zero energy design was a nice touch. For two reasons. Folks can easily keep trying for the itemless run if they choose and it also allows easy access for some "just for funsies" tries with different champions even after you've completed it. I have no delusions that something like this would ever gain much traction on the priority list, but it makes me wish there were "shortcuts" to final bosses in other quests. So folks could go back and fight them quickly/without energy for fun (after 100% completion of course). I even appreciated the little jokes on the fight menus. Nice event guys!

    And the finale is yet to come...

    For those that did do it and are now at max, should they leave 1 objective and complete it after the point has been reversed?

    They announced the points will not count. Not sure why there's confusion. No one will be exempt from completing all objectives in order to earn all rewards. Make sure to do all objectives.

    My confusion is WHEN to claim the final point. I’m sitting at max rewards, but also have a point left to claim.

    Hey @Kabam Miike , many of us were not able achieve all the objectives due to ongoing issues with game. So ended up getting second peak award. I though this last quest give opportunity to gain some more points but it will be ended in next week only.
    Is there any scope of achieving top peak award?
    I tried very hard to achieve all the objectives but some were like i have to deal with bugs and pump in lots of revives. So many of us left them.

    If you fought Darkhawk again during the extension week, you’ve got one extra point which is supposed to be deducted before reward release. So it is likely that you have reached max reward level when you completed 2 objectives this week. In this case you should complete the outstanding objective or otherwise you’ll miss one point and lost the max reward.

    I saw some chatter in Line chats and then the first post where Kabam was adding the solo objectives in week 4 is what made me think they would go thru week 11. Announcing week 4-9 would have been more clearer but like I said it is what it is. Kabam hasn't always been the clearest on how events always work and we all read things differently and that is what I took from their post.

    Wow. It sounds like a problem unique to you.

    I think you kind of answered your own question though. There was no word on the final two weeks except that it would be different. It’s unlikely that Kabam would make this event last two additional weeks, but then not give additional rewards and still make everyone wait just as long for others to try and catch up.

    People had pointed out the additional weeks on the forums before, and many people said additional points were unlikely and leaving any on the table was at your own risk. I can only hope those people listened to that advice.

    I’m not sure this will help, but in case it will, I want to point out that 23 points is no small feat, and at the start of the event, many would have been more than happy with that final outcome. I know I was shooting for 15. Between the t5cc, nexus, and sig stones, I’d say you came out with a treasure trove of a reward.
    Nah I know. Like I said I am not upset or anything. I have maybe spent 7-8 revives on this whole event so far, still need to finish Ghost but now I can just get 2 points for 23 and not have to worry about all 4 points for 27 since the most I can get is 25 now. Kabam's initial post and the timer in the event made me think otherwise about the total amount of points able to get. Like I said I am happy with what I got for the time and resources used but if Kabam had been clearer then I may have gone for the full 27. Still those rewards will come and if nothing else I saved myself resources for perhaps better rewards for what is to come.

    I’m pretty sure you didn’t read my post beyond the subject. Can a Kabam employee answer whether or not I/we (with the extra point) need to wait to claim our final point until after the extra is removed?

    You can complete and claim the final point. Deduction of points later should not be an issue. If you want to wait till last moment, that's a risk because of life issues, emergency maintenance and all that jazz.

    With the Summer of Pain coming to an end, we're going to be changing the Summer Of Pain Peak Milestones to pay out to you all at the end of this week's fight! That means you don't have to wait until the end of the event for the rewards!

    But what about the final Quest? Well Summoners, we're going to let you in on a little secret... The final week consists of a very different quest. This quest consists of multiple paths where you'll face off against the Summer Of Pain bosses one more time before facing the final Boss! A challenge of this calibre demands its own set of objectives and rewards!

    Keep an eye on your Message inbox after the Summer of Pain event ends for your Rewards, and prepare for the last dastardly Challenge in the final weeks of the Summer of Pain!

    First, finally I agree in the fact this event made progress the players who tried it a lot. Personally, for example I learned to bait the SP of Supreme Symbiot and Emma, that I would not have learned in long rows of fights. The one fight choice was right!

    As an improvement in the game, when the player abandons the fight, he should be redirected to the map instead of the choice of the lonely and KO champion. With around 200 attempts on Supreme Symbiot, it has really been an irritant to always have to exit the choice of champion.

    Regarding this decision :smile:
    No doubt that the players will appreciate to get the rewards earlier. This is positive to provide specific rewards for a clearly harder challenge.
    BUT as others Cavaliers I am currently between 2 milestones (the 2-point step between 3 and 4 and between 4 and 5) and with this choice there is no way to reach the next milestone while the remaining time let us think we could try.
    Even if the change of rules during the event is positive, would it be possible to provide 1 more point to the players?

    It's funny how some people "could not do all the fights/objectives because of the parry bug". Do you realize EVERYONE had that bug? yet many players COULD do all the fights/objectives while the parry bug was there. How is that even possible?
  • Monk1Monk1 Member Posts: 751 ★★★★
    Can’t believe people..

    A) expected more than 27 points in total, when some points were basically a give away anyways
    B) are complaining for getting rewards early.

    The only logical complaint can be that your overloading us with t5cc and could do with more t5b as need them to rank champs!
