This July, y'all are going INTO THE INFERNO

Do people really care about 6* AG RNG when they been getting 6* generic and a 6* gem as well since last 2 months basically buy just grinding a bit ?

Seeing a lot of focus on the AG path.

Reminder! By participating in the 28-day Solo Event, you are able to earn an item to guarantee you a trip to that path. So, you are basically able to collect 1 AG this month, just by participating in the event.

1% chance at awakening gem literally translates to "f2p u only have 1% chance to accquire it, start paying us or we'll make you pay...btw it's now contest of whales be yotch"

Thanks Jax. Personally, I've enjoyed this in the past with Rifts. Even if your RNG is not on your side, you can still get what you want at least once.

The only thing I need is gold and ISO. Even if I get REALLY lucky and have the opportunity to pull gold every single time, that's about 3 million total. About enough to rank up 2, maybe 3 champions for the month. And even that just obviously won't happen. Getting what we want once doesn't really do much for anyone unless it's the 6* AG.

Can you please elaborate how that works

TheRogues

So two Awakening Crystals for Thronebreakers? One from the top rewards of the rifts and one from the Milestones? Since they stated that everyone will get top reward ones.

There are 4 types of Dimensional Energy: Chaotic, Unstable, Stablized, and Perfected.

Chaotic chooses any random path in the rift with the given chance. Unstable let's you choose between paths A, B and C. Stabilized let's you choose between A, B, C and D. Perfected let's you choose between A, B, C, D and E.

We only get 1 Stabilized and Perfected Dimensional Energy, 2 Unstable, and the rest are Chaotic.

Hopefully this bugs out like the black widow rifts

"A 1% chance means that it should happen once per 100 tries on average. It may happen not at all, or it may happen multiple times"

So , yeah ..

doesnt matter. most rift months increased the rewards we got. here, we essentially choose the AG which we already have plenty of, or little to no R5, R4, R2 materials.

this event doesnt give us the joy of forming anything, instead, it steadilly increases the fragments and hopes we are happy, or a 6* awakening gem which we have plenty of.

especially with july 4th offers, the games economy of champions and rankups need to be balanced for F2P players.

again, no R4 mats, no R5 mats, no R2 7* mats, just disappointment and a 6* awakening gem.

oh and relics, but nobody feels any joy of getting fragments to rank them up, and you guys already overvalue the 5 and 6 star relics. so not only do we get fragments, most are relic fragments, we dont get any 5 or 6 star relics, and yall expect us to APPRECIATE rifts??!

dissapointment.

You guys nerfed the rewards or something? Not only are the rewards kinda ass but you've hardly got a chance to get path E which looks like it contains the best rewards. Good thing ill be quitting this month no content that is making me want to stay especially not this new SQ. Terrible.

Did you see how many crystals you can obtain?

80 what crystals? 3*s? This month is a joke compared to others.

Allnamesbetaken

Does it say what will be in the inferno nexus crystals? Maybe a 2star to help with act 8? Or some more 3 star relics that do nothing? Perhaps it will be a .0002% discount on a purchase of 10 odins, since this game is going ptp.

Greekhit

Side quest is underwhelming at least, considering the new standards for game economy 4th July offers have set.
I guess I’ll skip it at all since you can’t even rush it on first days, I’m not a fun of the annoying time gated concept.
I’d better do arena collecting units to be ready for the next sales (Cyber Monday), since it seems that’s the way to play the game effectively anymore.
Kabam needs to ante up rewards on content to be at least more dated, because now compared to offers they seem irrelevant.

IceBobby

Could you give us the summarized info on how many total entries we would have into the rifts if we do everything? It looks like 28 random entries + the selectors + potentially something from the inferno nexus crystals... am I missing any?

Wozzle007

The rewards are what the rewards are. If when it comes down to playing the side quest it’s actually enjoyable, I’ll do it. But the rewards don’t offer any incentive. The effort Vs impact to my account will be fairly negligible. Kabam has shifted the economy with the battleground store update and then broken it with July 4th deals.

Fit_Fun9329

All in all, playing the game now for those minimal rewards after 4th of July is very demotivating. I think the game economy is broken now, I see a lot frustration and resignation.

4th of July was too broken

Marvelfan30

There should be more gold

KyrieRed

Wait last month we had access to get one 6* AG crystal and one 6*generic AG, so now that is divided in sections, are we able to complete both paragon level and TB level for example? Or is it one or the other?

Agent_7

1. Gated use it or lose it entries? Check.
2. RNG Rewards? Check.
3. No Rank Up Materials to be seen? Check.

All we need now is to open the first rift and see Protection and Unstoppable on everything to complete the “Kabam giving the community everything they hate” quadfecta.

KnightOfTheRealm

The best side quests are the ones that make every clown who doesn’t read complain. Therefore this month is a huge W

HulkbusterN1

Don’t really understand, why it is needed to give only 1 entry per day. Why couldn’t we do SQ on day 1, like it was this month. I understand, that it was bug, but it was the best thing, that happened to SQ for years as for me. If people can collect all keys on day one, they have an opportunity to rush it and then for the rest of the month they can do whatever they want. As for other players, who don’t want to rush, there is still no problems, they can do quest whenever they want.

DrZola

Just fix the random lag and other bugs. A simple request Jax—regardless of whatever you have planned for next month, why does the game have to be so dysfunctional?

Kabam should be ashamed.

Historically speaking, most rift-based monthly events quests have been the worst of them all. Not only are the odds to get anything good making even the 1% chance of getting a 7* from a Paragon crystal be almost good enough, the effort you put in and end up getting something you need is almost always where the RNG is favorable to. Sure, logging in daily for 28 days will get us a 6* awakening gem but that's just to put balm on the potential whiplash that this kind of event eventually tantamounts to.

June's "lull-ness" wasn't because the entry keys were obtainable quickly enough to finish the entire month in a day. It was "lull" because you had to repeat the same path over and over again with just different enemies (and if you forget to bring a bleed champ, forget completing it and waste one entry). It would have been much better if you could travel different paths inside the quest (like the one in Feb or March, I think) instead of one circular one like the special gold event for those who purchase the monthly Summoner Sigil.

I wouldn't mind repeating the type of side quest content for June except to change the paths to complete to make them shorter, and the store be stocked with bundles that actually make sense for the level of progression they were intended for.

Anyway, what else could we possibly hope for?

wow that 1% chance at a 6* gem. I expect the rng to suck the fun out of this month's sq.

You are guaranteed to go to that path atleast once

PpurpleII

I don't know if it is just me, but I want to stay away from Path D as a Paragon. I could use path A more somehow

I don’t know. Path B looks most appealing for those special event crystal shards. Nothing like getting 800 chances at a 3* champ.

Kidding (ish) aside, I’m looking at that Gold on Path A like “You’re mine”. In the absence of T6CC that is.

Savage123456789

“We saw a number of conversations about how there wasn’t a lot to do in the month of June, especially with AW and BG on break“

Exactly , because we had a break on AW and BG. It’s not an every month occurrence. Letting people play at their own pace in months that are busy is better overall. There will always be people saying there isn’t enough to do, but those are people that have completed everything and don’t care about other modes like AW or BG that much. I don’t think this was a good reason to suggest fixing the bug was a pro-player decision. Especially when SQ also costs energy, so we have to balance that with everything else
