    Seeing the solo rank rewards it is clear that this event is focused in the battle for top 1 spender in the game. The only good thing in the crystals for that people is t4a, and a little amount of them, so they have to buy a lot of this crystals to have a decent amount of t4a, and to finish in the top-1

    I think Kabam have thrown any attempt to rectify this whole debacle into the too-hard-basket, not to be heard from again until the holidays are done and dusted.

    So Thanos and Kang will be first sig 200 7*s. I m also imagining a sig 200 7* Groot or Iron Patriot. It's like "Yeah they ain't cool and all but take 11 of those. Feel Better?". Perhaps if those players get awakening rewards as well that will be fine with the titan shards and iso

    Please answer the questions posed on this thread or at least give a response

    I don’t think we are going to like the response. If something was incorrect, they would have responded by now. Hoping they are going to revamp the rewards to something meaningful isn’t gonna happen.

    Give them time to think of counter reply. It's like there are in Kabam HQ with the door sealed and a wild riot is outside. I think saying GQC costs 200 units or less would save them as it's not mentioned.
    200 units doesn’t save the event either.

    Yep, it’s baked in now. Pretty sure they knew it wouldn’t be received well and took that into their calculations when making the event.

    We are just affirming what they knew the reaction would be. Hopefully something meaningful is out there in the future for those who grinded, paid for, and prepped with units. My concern is that isn’t the case. This has been the best unit event on the calendar… not this year.

    fr bruh we need like the lowest amount of 7* shards to be 3.5k and the highest should be 15k and I do not have any 7* yet but its so disapointing

    @Kabam Miike /Jax ... can you please clarify if banquet event will no longer give points for buying consumables for yourself (boosts, cores, revives, potions, etc)

    Making them cost 100-120 units feels a lot better but then again I wouldn't enjoy getting T2AC fractions or even full given that people are already valiants. They released 7*s and not even a year in, we already see r3 7*. The way the game pace is going is we gonna have 8* r2's by next July and I'm not even kidding. If I was a whale I would just buy sh*t ton of these and open them trough out the year when I need gold, T5CC, T4AC, etc. and munch on the peasants in BG and AW whole year round. As. I love the game and I won't quit the game because of a dud event, I just enjoy doing my things regardless of where other people are. However you just don't spend money if you don't like what you see, you don't order a burger if you don't like burgers. And if majority of the people don't like burgers, the house eventually would have to start making stuff other than burgers, it's that simple.

    Needless to say it’s been disappointing since cyber weekend they claim they are slowing down on rewards but the 9th aniversary should have been a bit better unless ur grinding arena which most people don’t because of rosters u not collecting units u have to spend units to get a 7 star u have to bank on your alliance to participate as well to progress . I know most of kabam staff disagree with these rewards but those in control gotta listen for once baquet has always been great until now yeah u got rid of gifting but gifting coulda been nerfed like 10 points or something to prevent people from manipulating the point system we already getting revive nerds etc so coulda kept it so people could progress their accounts

    Thanks for making the banquet rewards low end… I just bought an Xbox series X with the money I was planning on spending in the banquet! ✌️

    I see the gta-6 trailer really is pushing the sale numbers up. 📈

    Valiant is a title that’s barely a month old. 7*’s are barely a year old. People complaining about the milestone rewards are out of touch. Just because you just got Valiant does not mean more r3’s are immediately available (with the exception of an additional r3 from Cyber Weekend).

    Kabam Crashed even admitted that the pace of 7*s will decrease going forward. Sometimes we as a community act like spoiled brats. We could have gotten the best LEGO set for Christmas and the immediate response is “We want more! We should have gotten more!” Sometimes we’re not grateful as a community.


    And I would agree with you if these weren't 300 per piece sir. Why would I spend 300 units for T2A when I can buy it for 60 glory, please don't tell me the gold and iso added justify the 300 units cuz it doesn't. They just shot themself in the leg with these early 7* rank resources release. You want people too feel good about getting 6* shards and resources while you already have plenty of valiants with r3 7*. And no, I'm not complaining, I don't like complaining especially knowing there is a free to play node around, just stating the obvious objectively.
    You’re not buying GBC’s for the T2A, you’re buying them for a *chance* at high ticketed items like T6B and T3A. And if you’re a whale? You’re going for the *elusive* chance at the T4 Alpha. I don’t think your point stands because Paragon crystals exist.

    Using your logic, why buy a Paragon if you’re *most likely* going to get a 4 and 5*? Well you’re most likely opening them because you want to test your luck at getting the 7*. What is the side effect of opening a lot of paragons? Items like ISO which can be converted to gold and used for leveling up.

    Likewise, the side effect of opening GBCs are the milestones and other rewards you get from GBCs.

    Why would I purchase multiple GBCs with a ridiculous rng and spend hundreds when I can buy the all year round offers for $20.00 like the one that's running right now and it gives you 1 + 1/2 t3a, 1+1/2 t6bc, t5cc and 2x t5bc. I don't think you have any clue what's that about. I can't wait to see the drop rates for t4ac, it's gonna be 1% so you basically are spending sh*t ton of units for the items I listed above. Hint: you don't have to drop a hondo for em. It sure is banquet event but not for the players.

    Hello will we be able to gift items from our inventory like revives and boost or do we need to purchase them with units? Thanks and good day 👍
  • TripleBTripleB Member Posts: 258 ★★
    @Taintman Exactly!
    Buying $20 for the offer today is better than buying $100 worth of these GBC.
    The same could be said for paragon crystals. If you told me that there would be offers for $100 to buy the champion I want, or buy $100 worth of Paragon crystals for a *chance at the champion I want... No brainer.

    Yes and I won’t have to worry about Kabam Mike “GTA” my XBox like it were a 6star max sig Hercules or something… unless there’s a break in at my house on Christmas Eve…

    Hope I’m not too distracted with AW to notice…🤔
    If it does get stolen you can use insurance to get it back... Not sure it works the same for pixels on an app
