Road to the Crypt

So say i do necropolis before january the 15th and i only die 10 times somehow. If the community gets the final milestone of 5M deaths, will i get the final milestone rewards?

You do not have to die at all. If you somehow complete the Necropolis with zero deaths, you still get the Road to the Crypt rewards if you complete it before the deadline.

The devs will, however, be looking at your run very closely.

If the community hits 5 million before January 15th will those that qualify get rewards before then or do we have to wait until January 15th? Because if we keep this pace we’ll hit it before Christmas for sure.

I'm pretty sure they aren't going to trickle rewards out. They will send out the rewards to everyone who completes it by the deadline, after the deadline.

They may also want to make sure none of those that completed Necropolis cheated before they send out rewards.

Check page 2, you are a whole day late. LOL

Question. Do you need to finish a Path in order to qualify, or just get past the first Champ?

(By first I mean second, since it was stated the first doesn't count.)

Complete a full run at least once, if you don't I think your deaths will count but you won't qualify for the actual rewards.

Okay, thanks. I'm debating using my Dust on Aegon, but I'll also have to plan the Revs. This helps.

Death counter stats:

Linear estimator: we hit 5,000,000 on or around December 10.

Extrapolating the slower rate implied in the last two updates: we cross the finish line on or about December 16.

I ascended my Ægon just for it and rolled on the easy path. Get some revives, a stash of units, and get it. The rewards are just too good.

He's still at R2, Sig 150. It will take some prep work. At least time is on my side.

If you don't have the other counters for path 1 or 2 like Kate Shuri Chavez or Zemo, yes Ægon is your only option so definitely ascend him. Luckily Banquet is coming up so you should be able to r5 Ægon ascend him and go for a completion run before January 15th.
Highly advice you go for path 1 btw easiest path by far.

If you are actually planning to do a Necropolis run before the RttC cutoff date, I would recommend ascending Aegon. Mathematically it is going to save you at least 20% of your revive count. For most players, that's going to be a significant amount of revives, and you're probably going to get the dust back from the Road to the Crypt rewards anyway.

Even if the only thing you get out of ascended Aegon is Necropolis and a step towards Valiant, I think that's worth it.

I have Shuri, Kate, and Zemo. Zemo isn't Ranked, but Kate is R3 at least.

Yes, even if I don't make the Road cutoff, it's a good investment. Thanks for the feedback.

If you can get both Kate and Shuri ranked up along with Ægon, they will save you some revives cause some fights can be problematic if you use Ægon. If you can't though then yeah just save more revives and brute force everything with Ægon.

I have a 7* Shuri R1, but she has a 6* HB Relic. She's pretty beastly.
