Why are Raid chests worse than Valiant a daily crystals?

I’ve opened two raid chest so far and got half a T6CC and a quarter T6CC from each. I also opened a daily Valiant crystal and revived a full T6CC. Which is more than both the raid chest I used many revives on… doesn’t feel right to me. I know you can get some good stuff from them but these partial T6CC feel like a joke..

Just unlucky to be honest. You can get a full titan crystal to even 7 star ultron from raid chests so it's still very good. It isn't meant to replace valiant crystals and is just an extra bonus for those who want to work towards it.

I’m not saying the chests are bad, just feels bad to put in all that effort for a partial catalyst, the minimum should be atleast a full T6CC.

Your sample size of 2 might be a bit low.

Basing a crystals worth on such a small sample is pointless. If you pulled 20k titan shards you would be posting how amazing the crystals are.

Because in raids victory are friends we made along the way 🍒

The lower end of the chests is abysmal for valiant players sure, but the top end and even middle of the road is great.

For how hard this raids are the chest should be better. Especially for us that drop units to keep playing. I know no one said we need to. Let’s just get that out of the way. If nothing else take out the 25% t6CC and only give out whole ones. Just my opinion. I’m kabam has their reason.

Because it's not "Valiant" AQ raid crystal.

Armageddøn

Because it's not "Valiant" AQ raid crystal.

The question is why there isn't a Valiant AQ raid crystal?
Isn't that the highest title in game?

How about adding a valiant raid crystal getting rid of half/quarter of a t6cc and 1500 7* shards and giving a fully formed t6cc, 3k 7* shards, Titan shards randomly instead. It would make raids exciting for the end game players otherwise it's just a Rng fest and will get boring and repetitive very soon.

Thanks. Now theyre going to nerf Valiant crystals 😂

My whole alliance has got exactly the same from the 1st box, partial t6cc.. we were all abit gutted, especially when we had such a mare getting our heads round it, the costs etc involved.. not a very good 1st impression when that **** flew out of the red box..

Remember that the chests are not the only rewards you get.

These are completion rewards, and that’s not even including honour, ranked, milestone rewards.

Yeah, not really worth that.. get way more from doing incursions each month and that's not such a unit grab

BitterSteel

That’s completely up to you, I think it’s well worth it personally. I do think there’s room for improvement though

Don't get me wrong, I think if I scored lucky from a box it would be worth it.. but there's too much in there that's going to dissapoint more often then not.. its going to annoy and stress me out.. after having what seems like a proper end game battle with thanos, tons of effort, counting down the % with your team mates, then boof, a slither of t6cc.. Meh, no motivation, and that's a 1st impression

BitterSteel

I feel like it’s natural, since it’s the only rewards you’ve experienced so far, but raids aren’t only about the chests - they’re a bonus while you’re doing it. I’ll be interested to see if you still feel this way after rank rewards and other stuff (not saying you’re wrong with any of the feedback you’re giving)

Also remember that in the context of the game right now, 25% of T6CC is nothing small imo, and it all adds up over time with other rewards in the game - plus you’ll get lucky with other raid rewards over time and it balances out.

Johnnoooooo

You've actually helped me see it from another perspective.. thanks

Must be better honestly, we get fully formed T6 and T3 in Paragon gauntlet, which is very easy compared to raids.

ThePredator1001

I did forget about the completion rewards, I kind of wrote them off because we have a cluster of people not making progress on their path so with that 3% degen I don’t think we will be able to take down ultron and complete the raid.

Mainly made this post as a rant, I actually am really enjoying raids so far, not trying to trash them. Just felt like 0.25 T6CC was abit low now a days.

JLordVileJ

Wait thronebreakers can do raids? I knew there would be a couple skilled people who just haven't done the rank ups for paragon, but I didnt know that rewards were actually aimed at people below thronebreaker in any way

There's a Cav chirping on the boards that Raids were boring easy, so there's clearly no gatekeeping.
