The titles are perfectly good as they are.
Since the same can be said between uncollected and cavalier regarding 4 to 5 star progression.
I still used at least one 5* to solo a SoP boss each week.
There is no content in the game that requires a rank 3. There is nothing in the game that is made impossible by not having 30% extra health and attack.
TB is seen as achievable so the grind starts all over again. Plus a cav will have some six stars so they think that thronebreaker will follow quickly.
Especially with the rapid growth of the game, people get to cav after like 2 months if the forums are to be believed. But like some already said, there’s no time spent enjoying cav, ranking up niche utility champs to do the cav content or generally expanding the roster and getting past “block, parry, mlllm” game play.
Why on earth would you be short of forming a full t5cc?
However there is one thing I wish to correct myself about:
When I said "5*/6* matter/don't matter", I meant new pulls. Atm, I have all the 5* champs I want with one exception: Ægon. My rankup list now focuses on 6*s and I have no intention to r5 any more 5* beyond the 15 or so I have already. Pretty much any pull from 5* crystal doesn't change a thing. I still use all the 5/65 champs I have, but I don't intend to rank up any other champ, as I have pretty much every area of the game covered w my 5*s and the holes I have will soon be filled w my 6*s.
I fought my butt off to become cav but I totally lack the skills to move on at all. I can’t even do variant content. Basically I suck at the game and made it to cav w a combination of blind luck and a bucket of revives.
Um, if I’m honest.
If you’re a later Cav trying to get TB, the only piece of temporary content you should struggle with is SoP. As a later Cav, the EQ won’t be as hard. If it is, then you’re not a later Cav. So do SoP, Kabam have explicitly said you will get compensation in the form of revives.
Bugs make it harder yes, and I have been KOd because of bugs in SoP. But I tried again, and again, until I got good runs. You have unlimited tries over a week, 0 energy cost. And even without soloing you can get a good run and go from there with the revives you’re going to get from compensation.
At this point, if Cavs aren’t going for SoP to get TB it says more about the player, than the content.
For every title, it is true that the people at the very top of that progression title are closer to the people at the bottom of the next title than the players in the middle of their own progression title. That's just how progression works.
The gap is supposed to be significant: that's where the incentive to progress comes from. Whether it is too large is subjective, but personally I don't think it is.
If your issue is specifically that there's no way to make a compensation package that is simultaneously appropriate for early Cavs and late Cavs on the verge of becoming TB, then there's a gap substantially larger than that: the gap between early TBs and top tier TBs. That gap is much, much wider than the gap between early Cavs and late Cavs. But the game isn't going to be splitting up the playerbase into fifty different tiers individually targeting very narrow ranges of players from beginning to end.
To me, the idea that Cavalier players specifically are special in this regard is something I think there's no objective basis for. It is a grass greener issue mostly, and not something the game should be playing favorites with. The path to Thronebreaker was arguably high at the start when T5CC was rare, but now that every Cav player can get 20% from monthly quests all Cavs have an inevitable path to R3s, and only need to do one single completion of Act 6 to reach TB, which is itself substantially easier than originally. Given that, I see no special reason to give top half Cavs an even bigger boost towards TB with special reward or offer consideration compared to all Cavs.
If you do, you just load the lower end of TB with Cav players even faster than now, and increase the sense among the top TB players that those players don't deserve to be in the same progression tier with them. You'd just be shifting the problem around. Essentially, top tier Cav players will jump into lower TB, then the upper TB players will advocate for pushing that entire tier downward lower than they are.
The entire point is, SoP provides such an incredibly easy opportunity to become TB for Cav, (as in, easy relative to 75% of a selector), and your counter point is, No it’s not because Im stuck on act 6?
How is that relevant?
So anyone who’s blaming the bug for not being able to do 9 fights which have unlimited attempts and 0 energy doesn’t have a leg to stand on. And anyone who is blaming the bug for not being able to do act 6 doesn’t realise you can do act 6 in a few weeks when the bug is (hopefully) fixed.
