New progression level after Paragon needed

I feel that we are at a point in the timeline of the game where we need a Progression Level after Paragon. Since a lot of players have been Paragon for a while now, it makes sense for Kabam to release a higher tier for Summoners. To reward higher paragon players for hard work in story mode and in roster building. I believe that a lot of players will have 3 Rank 4 6* champions, and with the release of 7*s some months ago, it seems ready for a new goal and rewards bump for top players. I would like to know if this is in the works and if there is an expected timeline for this, or if it hasn't been brought up yet. Paragon rewards are starting to seem stale at times during monthly events. (Also cav crystal shards calender is a joke now for higher players).

100% gonna be 8.4 and 1 r3 7* if I had to guess

Imo that's too far off for Kabam to make any real money on it. Paragon players are already feeling like the rewards are stagnating

If I recall correctly, Thronebreaker was released in October 2020. Paragon was released April 2022. We probably won’t see a new title until late 2023 or early 2024

This is if Kabam is trying to keep a two-three year cadence of a new title/progression

The issue is if you don't gate it to r3 7*s, then what are you going to gate it with? If it is gated with anything current, then most high-end players automatically have it, or it'll be something obscene such as having 16 r2 7*s. It is much easier to just wait until players can start getting r3 7*s before introducing a new progression title.

This is true I guess. I was thinking like 3-5 R2 7*s but unfortunately I think a 7* R3 is more likely. It's just annoying because they haven't even introduced the T4A yet

Or they could simply do away with champion requirements and go back to making tougher content. Then it can be purely based on being able to explore act 8.4.

If they make a new title, I want it to be fleshed out before they release it

Good luck with that.

If they are all bored with developing MCOC and want to move on to other things, sure. Otherwise, not so much.

Roster requirements for progression are not just some random idea someone thought would be neato. They solve a very critical progression problem, namely that it is all but impossible to simultaneously tune progression content to be a significant progression barrier for the strongest players but also an achievable one for the below average players. The difficulty reductions of Act 6, the roster check RPG-style paths of Act 7+ and the roster requirements for progression tiers above Cavalier are all pieces of the same solution to the progression problem. None of them are arbitrary decisions that can just be undone on a whim.

No amount of luck will help with that, because that assumes games as a service even want to operate in that manner. That's almost never the objective.

I can't wait for the new progression title, so the Cavalier objective crystals be replaced with TB ones, and instead of awarding t5 basic ISO and t1a cats, to award t6 basic ISO and t2a cats 😂
Before introducing the new title, the game team should update few things on the existing top title, as well as ensuring that the new top title will come full up to date in most (if not all) areas of the game, like having seperate objectives, seperate calendars, seperate stores, seperate offers etc.
My guess for the new title requirements was (and still remains), one to three 7* r3s and 8.4 completion.
Depending on when 8.4 will be released, that's about when we will see the next progress title.
And because New Year's offers seem pretty close, and anyway the community doesn't seem in a rush to get a new progress title, I can see Kabam take their time and introduce it during Spring offers.
I might be wrong and be sooner, but it will surely come during a sales period 🙂

I know haha. That's why I said that. Anything thinking a new progression level comes fully fleshed out is simply hoping with luck. Look at paragon, 2 years old and were still getting stuff for it to this day.

If it comes when 8.4 drops then that should be in April with spring cleaning.

It should be something hard, like as hard it was to get three 6r4 when it came out because if next progression is something too easy then players will have it under a month.

I'm down for three 7r3 and one 7r4 with 100% act-8, anything less will be called as "silent nerf and slap in the f2p face."

It is already late 2023, so new title may be around the corner but they always drop the info unexpectedly so who knows.

You forgot their focus on Relics lately … it might be gated behind 3x 7* R2 and 3x 6* Relics R3 😂

Armageddøn

Paragons getting cavalier objective crystals, Cavalier shards, Uncollected gold crystals, thronebreaker arena crystals. Buffing these crystals before giving us a new progression title makes the most sense IMO but it's kabam we're talking about

captain_rogers

I have this strange feeling of , along with champion rank up, some sort of relic rank up is going to be a requirement for next progression.

MasterSmoke

Keep ranking up those 7*s to R2 just in case

Shhhh,
Players aren't talking about relics in hopes of Kabam actually forgetting about them.

Polygon

Actually, if it’s gonna be an R3 then maybe I can actually use t6cc on 6 star rank 5’s now. I don’t have any r5’s but can take 5 up . I just wasn’t in case the title would need R2’s

Late 2023 isn’t over until December. Also, new Progression Level teased

Depends on the spending. New stuff opens when sales drop. When log ins slow.
