That’s ridiculous. From 958k to 335k?

That was a HUGE eff up.

Vegeta9001

Seems to have kept the 7*s and all the heroes he ranked stayed. In line with the rest. Lose the unimportant champs keep.the good ones.

Over 2k bump in prestige. Hard to really tell without detailed layouts.

There is no way to 100% fix this.
Putting it on the players is super lazy as it’s their job.

I actually hope everyone keeps their champs because it doesn’t effect me.

But the high end BG players gotta be angry.

Seems fishy. Did Kabam apply their mastery points and get them a new title as well?

It seems the first picture is after opening crystals given there's 125 new for what is probably new champs.

I wish they'd just straight but ban everyone who took part. Solves almost every problem.

What? I was on the otherside of letting them keep everything.

Until I saw an account go from 930k to 330k.
I didn’t realize how much they got.

When you add up to 1,250 5/6 star champs in one shot plus resulting 6/7* shards, that'll do it.

Yes, they can keep everything and get banned from the game.

That’s pretty crazy. Would be nice to have for a week or two

I'm no expert and won't pretend to be. But could they not have just said "f em" and rerolled their accounts back to an hour before the incident took place. Undoing anything they did legit or otherwise in that timespan as a side consequence of their actions. Again, I'm no expert in the field and dont know if that would've been a viable option.

Long story short made by DNA (if I understand it correctly), it is probably harder to reroll the accounts than to delete their stuff.

They didn't do a good job deleting their stuff either though.

You can't just pick and choose what to rollback. If you're saying rollback an account to before they opened the crystals, you're not taking into account things like BGs, arena, incursions or AQ that were played. You'd have to figure out how make all those areas correct as well.

MCOC just doesn't work that way.

You're right; 20% 6* chance? That's probably minimum 275 six stars (assuming 20% 6* plus every 5* being a dupe, many would be max sig) and 2+ 7* from the 6* dupes.

It is game breaking and not something they could leave in.

Im talking full roll back, any content they did, gone. I get why they didn't do that, since people may have spent money during that time, but, they exploited, theyd face the consequences.
Either way, seems that the recurring pattern is people are being allowed to keep 7*s and any 6*s they actively awakened or put sigs into.

I've only personally seen two cases from my friends with actual proof, and theirs is just 7*s with a couple 6*s that they managed to keep that they didn't have before. But lost the bulk of **** they didn't need anyway, but kept the valuable stuff.

You can’t delete/ban accounts for a kabaam mess up.

smdam38

It is gonna unfortunately incentivize folks to utilize next round of exploits.

I said it the day it happened.. they should have shut down the server for emergency maintenance... 🙄

Why not?

If your bank makes an error and deposits $1 million in your account by mistake, you think you're not going to jail if you spend it? Try telling the judge it was the bank's error so you shouldn't be punished and see how well that works out for you.

Crine60

Given that in usual Kabam fashion they seem to have failed to do the removal correctly they should just permanently ban them all now. What is worse, not keeping your word to cheaters to not ban them or not keeping your word to the players who didn't cheat and are the bulk of the player base (Mike said everything they gained from the crystals would be removed)?

smdam38

Ban them for what?
Tapping on the screen that Kabaam made available?

Nah
For Opening the crystals they knew were there due to bug
