The difficulty increase is ridiculous

You know what the weird unintended consequence of this might be? Disaffected players like me stick to farming 3.2 and prioritize gathering resources for Carina instead of autofighting EQ to accumulate units for holiday deals.

If people don't want their opinions discussed among others, this isn't the proper place to express them.

So someone who is always saying that they are free to express their opinion is telling people not to express them.

And you believe that you have some mission to discuss(argue would be the correct term) every opinion that differs from yours just so you can keep repeating the same opinion incessantly throughout a thread.

You have taken hypocrisy to whole new level

I don't believe I told anyone not to express their views. I said if the goal is to leave opinions unchallenged, this is the wrong place for it. Anything that's posted is up for discussion. That means you, or I, or anyone else.

Again you are absolutely free to express you points of view.

But you are condescending, and repeatedly tell people their points of view are wrong, while quoting them. When they have no interest in a dialogue with you.

You can simply state what you believe, which we all know is Kabam is bestis ever.
And not be so combative with people, and then play the victim card when you don't like how you have challenge.

Have discussions with your friends on here. Express you points of view. But learn and accept most people don't want to discuss or debate with you specifically. Ok

I don't need permission to discuss anything on here. I don't need people to make personal judgments on my character. I certainly don't need to have anyone turn a discussion into a delitany about me as a person.
There are Moderators for a reason, and when I say something out of line, they're here to deal with it. I don't need a Kangaroo Court on my participation. The fact is, I stay on topic. I discuss the points that are made, and I share my own perspectives on what's been said. It's not personal. It's a discussion.
So once again, I'm going to get back to what we're here to discuss. I've had my share of people turning these conversations into a slingfest
towards me, and I have spent all the reactions I will on it. It's inappropriate. People need to stick to the topic.

When people tell you personally to back off you ignore and challenge them some more. So when it's happening to you now, you are understandable getting pissed off. This is the point.
This isn't about permission, you are 100% allowed to express yourself. You don't get to play the victim when you are called out on something yourself.
I have treated you as I have watched you treat others and clearly you didn't like it. I agree it isn't cool. That's the point treat others as you wish to be treated.

I said I'm sticking to the topic, and that's where it's staying. I do not behave the way people behave towards me. That's not a thing. I'm sorry if that's your perception, but I talk about topics that are being discussed. Not the people discussing them. This Forum would be a great deal less toxic if others did the same. These conversations only serve to take things off the rails.

Yup, stepping away from EQ, not worth the hassle and time. Farming secondary resources with auto fight was a satisfaction; having to actually try to get this low-quality mostly useless stuff is a waste of my time. I'm knocking on the door of TB, will get there soon enough, and will not bother with these EQ changes. Mostly I did it for the units, a few t4 basics, etc. Now I have to (admittedly minor) research and plan for uncollected difficulty, and try to complete it, and this is not for me. I have the roster for the higher difficulties, but not the inclination. Rewards definitely should have been notably increased.
BG = a waste of my time
and now,
EQ = a waste of my time
I am not aware of Kabam's reasoning behind this change to EQ, haven't read the forums in a while, mostly just interested in playing the game, but just this morning, after exploring the various difficulties and rewards and nodes and such over the last week or so, I decided that EQ was now a persistent waste of my increasingly valuable time. The effort compared with rewards simply do not equate to what I consider to be value. And so I decided to come here and add my 2 cents to the rather long discussion.

A similar situation occurred with Arena changes a while ago now, and we got some traction there, so keep talking about it, Peeps.

Good luck to still developing accounts.

Feeling like I'm to blame for skewing kabams data.
I'm cav but should be TB. Tried grandmaster nearly a year ago for the first time and not really had time since. Can complete the path with whole team in tact but waiting for chance to save units as I sucked at GM fight. Also have a 2nd account at UC but don't really play it anymore except in AQ but still have a small roster with 2 R3 6*s. I'm in a 50+mil ally and doing my bit and enjoying the time I get on the game.
I was running through UC EQ and then Cav when I had time.
Just to add, not being able to autofight is a pain as I get a lot of spare energy and I had just started to burn it up collecting units for my GM fight.
Looks like I'm not alone if kabams data is anything to go by. If I put the same time into the game now, I will get less rewards...which is a bit s#*t
Not looking for opinions on my skill or how I should progress, just showing up as one of the guys hanging around with out of balance progress/roster

Nothing to blame, that’s the job of data analytics. Kabam cant just take the average or even the mean. I suspect it’s a multimodal distribution. Let’s take Unc players for example. I expect to see at least 3 trends in behaviour:

1) Newly Unc players who have time but lack champs or skills
2) Old Unc players who have champs but may lack time or skills
3) Old Unc players who have champs & skills but lack time (or interest)

They each have different reasons for being “stuck” at their progression level. Group 3 should be ignored as outliers, as they are probably happy to autoplay indefinitely. Imo, the tuning should aim to be between Group 1 & 2’s capabilities. If Kabam wants the game to be sticky, they can’t make low EQ levels a clown fiesta ultramarathon.

I also think they should have renamed the EQ levels all new non-progression based names to avoid the obvious complaints like “Cav eq is too hard for Cav players” etc. Just my 2 cents.
