Arena Boost QoL Update

ahmynuts

What do you guys think about having a QoL update that gives us an option like Arena Express (but free for everyone because QoL changes should not be paywalled; that's scummy and BS) that automatically will apply arena boosts to your teams as long as you have them in your inventory?

As long as there is a toggle I don't see what it could hurt.

Yeah, I was thinking maybe a checkbox like we have for Arena Express. I tried applying boosts for the first time in a while and it was super slow and clunky which gave me this idea.

The first champ I grinded for was modok so I wasn't an arena grinder at the beginning of the game but I imagine the intent was to use them and just keep refreshing those champs. From all my arena grinding groups there is absolutely no one, among the 100 or so I communicate with who always get the feature champs who use them this way. They use them on a champ do a round, and apply to the next champ. That could be why it's seems so poorly designed.

I would love it if arena boosts were not class related. I don't know why the are in the first place.
I'd like to be able to pop crystals, see that I have 50 boosts and know that I can do 50 fights boosted, and not having to dance around what classes I pick for my teams.

That would also be really nice tbh.

The first QoL update that I'd like to see is when I don't have to click on the help button for 30-60 champs. It's so unproductive and a waste of time. Why not have the used champs go for "Help" automatically? Surely there are better ways of making players spend time in-game.

Are you talking about having to claim them from your overflow? I would’ve thought they’d auto-claim like everything else

"use boosts" and let it autoapply to every class/champ until you run out would be great.

I might even start opening the crystals again.

I think they do auto-claim, but it's everything else about them. For 3 times every round, you need to select your champs, press the use items button, and then select the boost. That's 9 button presses/menus you need to go through for 1 round of arena if you want to use the boosts. It would be nice if we had an option where the boosts would just auto-apply to the team you're entering the arena match with

I too wondered about this today. For now my solution is click on inventory tab and enable using the boosts tab. Helpful provided you use that champion within 15 minutes. I can envision a toggle to auto-enable boosts,
