    What about the Christmas calendar we have been getting all these years?

    Probably coming with the banquet announcement as it starts around that time and has contained banquet crystals

    Hey gang,

    I just added the brief overview of the banquet event.

    That's all for now, we'll have a followup post later in the month. Mostly we want to communicate the participation cutoff!

    Can we gift during this event or not?

    Rewards could be better, I mean they are better than a kick in the grapes, but us thronebreakers need more T6 Basic and T3 Alphas mate.

    Takes way too long to accumulate resources to R4 these 6 stars...Anyway, rant over.

    Kind Regards,

    Uncle Toproller

    The side quest info says it will have threat levels 1-5 but all the rewards listed are tied to progression, not threat level. Will there be any incentive to complete the higher difficulty quests?

    If someone joins an alliance on 7th Dec will they be completely locked out of the banquet event or will they be able to participate on 21st dec after being locked out for 1 day?

    They can participate starting the 21st and will still earn all alliance rewards.

    Dangle a new title like a carrot, and then have nothing ready for it after it’s released other than daily crystals.
    Typical

    That's great. Has anyone from kabam confirmed this? I just want to be completely sure that's all.
  • CoMinowCoMinow Member Posts: 357 ★★
    Someone needs to confirm this!
    It would be a pretty crappy move by kabam to force people to stay in an alliance that they don’t want to because you can’t collect a W season rewards change alliances, and still qualify for banquet.

    I seriously hope they didn’t do anything that crappy. But I wouldn’t put it past them either.

    Add 14 days from date you join to new ally. If last day is 3rd Jan is quite narrow gap. Better to join 19-20 Dec maybe...21st is day to day could miss ally rewards, maybe)

    No Primordial Dust at all in side quest rewards.
    What a disappointment 🙁
    Last month’s side quest took away tier1 PD from advanced players, this month’s side quest took away tier2 PD too.
    Goodbye ascension for this month ☠️
    I want to believe they overlooked it, and it’s not the new normal.
    @Kabam Jax any insight if that’s intended?

    We had some generous SQs this year, now people’s expectations are very high. And then you‘re getting disappointed (by Black Friday or Banquet and regular Events).

    It is what it is and they won’t spam Ascensions like crazy.
  • WOLF_LINKWOLF_LINK Member Posts: 1,376 ★★★★
    Oh, and there will be Dust this month pretty sure … from
    Banquet Milestones. That’s why there is no more in normal SQ.

    I'm pretty sure they will be Primordial Dust at Banquet Milestones, but at which milestone?
    If it is on the first milestones which anyone will reach with the free units, then ok.
    But if it requires to spend extra units (excessive to what you get back for free), it will be absurd and won't "compensate" at all their absence from side quest.
    Unless there are attached to the holiday calendar 🤷
    Also, what about tier1 PD?
    I'm pretty sure many progressed players are interested in ascending more of their 4* and 5* champs.
    Is that game breaking to have some in the SQ rewards?
    We are already having 7* r3s in the game, if ascension isn't available at a good rate now, to keep 6*s more relevant, then when?

    5 star stuff for cavalier is too harsh :(

    --
    Have just read it all to notice that you guys had the same Anniv. Rewards for Proven - Cavalier.

    Sigh.

    I'm a paragon player with 2.6 Million account, I decided not to do the monthly EQ due to bad rewards, and it seems Kabam don't want us to do the side quest also, recent rewards not worth the time & effort at all, Current nodes in battlegrounds not my favorite, guess I better take a break from the game....
