Honestly, I feel like there should be 2 given how hard these challenges are lmao. But it doesn’t seem intentional. I’d love 2 for all this effort + people can dupe the champ of their choice

Those 6* selectors are there to be able to grab the champs needed to complete the other challenges. @BringPopcorn

I wish instead of Fintech, they would give Seatin his own challenge. Because I know that man would almost makes it fair and reasonable. This sucks.

They could have sprinkled a few more 7" shards instead of some lame 6* selectors; but thats not on Lagacy, Karatemike or Fintech...

I believe there's 20k worth of 7* shards across all challenges. I think

Well 30k (2 7*) would probably be more suitable... 6* even if its a selector doesnt really seem much of a reward at this point in the game.

Hey all,

You are welcome to discuss the challenges and have your thoughts on them, but I want to be very clear, attacking any one of our creators directly will not be tolerated. Nobody "betrayed the community" by doing exactly what was asked, to create extremely hard content.

We will not tolerate any form of personal attacks, and we will take action on your game account if we think that it is necessary.

That is a lame excuse... Feels like the people who have them don't get rewarded then...

My reaction to Fintech's challenges:

Josh2507

It’s cool that these challenges exist

I’m never gonna do them, but it’s good for the people who are into this stuff

KarateMike said the 2 selectors are intentional! That’s awesome honestly

I will say though, these are in line with some of the other stupid Carina challenges they have rolled out before. Some of LOL and Abyss challenges were on par with these.

Im still holding on my final judgement until after my attempts but its possible this is poorly tuned. I want to be clear though, there has never been a challenge in this game that compares to lack of thought that went into the 4 star LOL challenges. Not even close. That challenge to 30 seconds for most of the late game community to understand exactly what it was meant to do. It was not 1 or 2 challenging roadblocks and semi-ish manageable (maybe even soloable fights). It was literally, with perfect play, impossibly stupid content. To this day it baffles how that ever got green lit

Yes, that is intentional.

Bruh I got jailed for my normal comment and it was deleted 💀💀💀 there wasn't even anything bad in that one and there was like 20 agrees on it lmao

BigBlueOx

The grief incarnate ones are BS. So we learned nothing from the LOL 4star challenge set. This really is disappointing. I can’t fathom why Fintech put his name next to this…

I think KarateMikes are more reasonable in comparison but I’m also sincerely disappointed that it’s a direct assault on a wealth of rank up resources to make it manageable.

The rewards are not worth it, i would spent the same amount of revives that i did in 3 paths of necropolis and only for an exclusive 7*? Nah
Lagacy's challenge are completely reasonable, thanks lags

Your not restricted by star level this time though. Only specific champ.

Apparently these CCP members had to test their own challenges ... I wonder now if some of these were even done with minimum ammount of items spent, or how they were even approved if that wasn't the case

Yeah they tested them on the beta server where items cost 1 gold 😂

Aww man you’re jailed again?

ReignkingTW

Are we sure it isn't just @ahmynuts ' profile pic at this point?

Avnish

I would love to play WOW... don't want to waste so many revievs for just 7* crystal and that 7* selector...after 2-3 month these will be outdated...will do these when I have nothing left to do...with revive orr they are going to expire...

For now WOW is much bigger thing than these garbage reward..

And offcourse these objectives and garbage rewards not on the lagacy, karatemike, fintech..they just did their thier part..m

If we talk about fintech objective i have to complete EOP all 16 annoying defender and then Thanos with jabari and tigra...I don't even know how much resources it will cost me..for single objective then i will get 5k 7* shards...

What a joke...

captain_rogers

This challenge awful dumb not fun nd cash grab? Yes
This challenge has insane rewards and seems kinda mandatory for progression? No

So chill. Stop blaming kabam when the challenges aren't even designed by them

Fintechs is awful. I don't even know who they are and I now have zero interest in finding out

I'm not gonna fight the jailing as my cell is pretty cushy but everyone that agreed with me should also technically be jailed or at least warned with this logic.

Madman_marvin

Only the Lagacy one is not for the sweatiest floppingiest whales out there. Just another challenge that isn’t a challenge but a unit dump.

Perhaps I can ask the question more productively: Im a valiant player, typically celestial-ish in BGs (until I stop playing mid season lol), and lets say I have each of these characters maxed, ascended and ready to go. If I start at 0 revives and 0 units and I dont mean to spend money, just how much time does kabam expect me to invest to clear this content?

Now lets say Im not me, and that Im just an average valiant in terms of skill but start from the same place roster wise and resource wise- just how much time is meant to be targeted to being able to clear this?

At this point it seems like the answer is being measured in months if not longer. We simply need better avenues for resource acquisition without which the pursuit of late stage content wont just be slowed… it just wont happen- exactly as we saw with abyss. What happens when the resource acquisition takes longer than the period of relevance for the content? Kabam claimed that revive spamming trivialized the content (and later clarified that meant actually time investment was trivializing it). Is producing content people will simply opt out of not also trivializing?

ReignkingTW

So...reading the challenge.

Can you complete Lagacy's in any order? Just do the 7.4.6 first? That fight is easier than 7.3.6 for me.

G-Hun-Gear

I‘ll have to say, both KM’s and Fin’s challenges are way overboard in my opinion! The challenges are Necro level difficult, considering the amount of champions you have to fight and the limited pool of champs you have at your disposal.

Gauntlet is 21 Opponents and EOP is 18 opponents… all while not getting any meaningful rewards for doing the quest itself…

I mean, yes, one of the Gulli pieces was covered in Necro, but at least you got a lot of rewards just for completing Necro.

This time you would only do it for the rewards within the carena’s challenge.

Shout out to Lagacy, he will gain a lot of new followers on his channels!

If you look at the rewards...
The only resource is a 7* 1-2 gem..
The rest is champ shards (straight up rng gamble), and a "trophy champ" piece...
