Cyber Weekend Predictions

Justcause102Justcause102 Member Posts: 141
Cyber Weekend takes place in less than two weeks. For your current progression, what are your predictions for a few of the offers? My prediction for the Oden offer as a Paragon player is
- Generic 6* 4-5 gem
-10k 7* shards
-5k titan shards
-1 million gold
I hope my prediction about the 4-5 gem is incorrect, but judging by last year's offers and fun in the sun offers, I believe it to be accurate.

    Going to be honest, unless your Valiant during or before the deals hit, you’re much better off hoarding your units for banquet or next July 4.

    That’s an interesting point…. May have to rethink my plans since I will definitely be in this category. Hadn’t considered the valiant aspect and timing.

    Counterpoint. There will only be bonus deals for valiant. The top tier regular deals will all be paragon

    Based on my understanding, it isn't bonus deals, it is a bonus to the paragon deals. So the only way to cash out on them would be being valiant before cyber weekend.

    People get to eat from the highest table every year if they progress during the weekend.. So complete necropolis, buy all the paragon offers, become valiant and then buy the extra valiant offers is what will most likely happen.

    That situation satisfies most paragon players AND gets kabam more purchases.

    Yes, that is normally true, however in the livestream kabam said Valiant will get a bonus to the offers, not that they'll get their own offers.

    I took it as additional offers themselves, aka “you’re still going to pay a pretty penny”. Now the big thing is going to be the ones who explore Necropolis before the sales go live and are Valiant….will they have instant access to the Valiant offers, or are they going to be tied behind all those Paragon offers (the same ones who a lot will just whale out on TO become Valiant)?

    If I was already Valiant prior to sales, I’d be pretty pissed to have to fork over an additional huge chunk of $$$ on bundles to get my new title offer, or have to spend an additional ‘xxxxx’ amount of units in the tiered offers they usually do.

    I doubt that’s how it’ll be, but only a bit of time left to see.

    That's what i was referring to, the bonus. Just shorthand because that bonus is only for them i just called them valiant offers.

    You know those who will be Valiant on CW are big spenders anyway (and some ftp heavy arena grinders/unit hoarders), so believe me the big spenders won’t have problem with buying all the offers, since that is most they were going to do anyway 🤷‍♂️

    as a paragon, you'll be able to get a 7* r3 gem
    cuz kabam said, you can COMPLETE necropolis nd buy deals to become valiant, completing necro means youre still paragon, so you can get a r3 as paragon

    The way Jax worded it when he said it sounded like it could go either way tbh. Them being tacked on at the end as a bonus or them just being there as a bonus

    Anyone knows if the 7*r3 rank up mats will be tied on $ offers or in the unit bundles?

    We don’t know yet. Speculation is that you need to buy every cash offer like the bonus deals in past spending events.

    That’s true. I was more thinking from a slightly frugal perspective such as:

    “Hmmm, I have all these units. If I explore Necropolis, then I can be Valiant when the deals come out and I can save myself a bunch of money and just get the 2 Valiant exclusive offers instead!

    Damn, that was a nightmare, but I did it! Took 95% of my units but it’s done! Show me the offers!

    *Valiant offers locked behind buying damn near every Paragon bundle to get enough units again to even have the privilege of buying the 2 offers for which you already have the title*

    *Pikachu face*

    Wtf?!..”

    That's pretty much straight up exactly what Jax said though
