Realm wide reward buff

TheLordShasta

Something I've observed over the past year is the whales as well as the rest of the community have become increasingly more annoyed with the current state of rewards everywhere in the contest alot of the content for the amount of effort don't reflect the rewards we feel we need. And another issue is older content is becoming obsolete because the resources to complete them are more valuable than the rewards from them. This is just my personal opinion and I would love to get the ball rolling on a community wide discussion regarding a realm wide reward buff.

Old content should stay as it is. Time capsules of the time of the contest progressing.

The current events are tests, like the CCE.

Realm events should be tiered.
On the upcoming Realm BG event I will be doing the first 2k points for rewards I am not even interested on, hoping lower progression players keep pushing to get people like me to a goal

I don't think there should be a reward buff to old content however it would be nice to see a progression based item refund reward added to some of the old content and challenges. For example if you completed the Abyss then you would get a percentage of the items used back depending on your progression title.

I personally like doing the carrinas challenges and I would like to do Abyss and explore Labyrinth however I just can't justify the material spend on them especially when we need to keep a nice reserve of items for things like SoS Toad....

Reward buff for Act 6 Exploration is a must. It's too much work for a couple of 6*s and t5cs and t2as. At least 2 t3as and 1 t6b is a must. Some 7* shards, maybe say x2500, and x5000 for Act 7*? Just my suggestion.

After seeing the 3-4 path approach in act 9, I would so love for act 6 to get a design overhaul where there isn't bloody 11 paths a quest, it sucks.

i think overall, the rewards for Act6&7, Variants, Abyss, EOP, etc should have a mild tweak up to the rewards to make that content relevant again besides "just something to do". Maybe add some progression based selectors to the content.

Also, should add an option to reset content for a unit cost. like reset the rewards for shooting starts for 1,000 units. Make older completed content relevant again instead of it just being completed and dead content after you finish it.

Revamp the Sigil and Sigil store.

Keep a monthly battle pass type event going all month every month too. even if its not interconnected to content every month.

Do some thing to make arenas slightly less grindy... tweak some rewards there too.

none of the rewards need to be earth shattering or economy busting. just a little something more that makes that content remain relevant still.

No
No
Already in the works
Maybe
No, you don't want them touching arenas. They'll make them more grindy

I like the idea of refreshing older content and buffing their rewards and the idea to reset completed content for units I'm not a huge fan of battle passes but we already have a system for them in place and I like the one we already have. For arena I think they just need to buff the rewards their like the creds units maybe add so potions and revives but overall I would I agree with most things you said

That would be awesome

Yes I agree making older content relevate/worth doing is important imo.

But if the rewards were buffed then they could be worth the materials spent.

I made this post by mistake on this thread.
Lower act rewards don't need butf, they already have stronger champs and difficulty nerfed.
As for "helping the community"... Nope I put my share of time, grinding, money, effort for rewards, not to help others. This is not Marvel Contest of Charities.

The problem with this is alot of players have amazing rosters now but don't want to waste the time or resources to complete older content and to the it's like dead stock in the game something they will never complete even though they could it offers them nothing in return with a reward buff you make the content relevant again. And if people truly feel nostalgic over old content rewards then they can go on YouTube and watch the super high-end players complete it for the first time. At the end of the day we are a community and as much as we cater to the whales we should also cater to the paragons thronebreaker cavs etc... we should be trying to grow our community.

No one caters to the whales, the whales pay for what they get
I get it.. you pull a 5* and you don't want to spend the mats to rank it up cause you have access to 6 or 7 stars. This is a game that has been running for 10 years, there are dues to be paid. Its not about buffing every reward so you can catch up.

While you have invested time energy and money into the game so have many others and buffing everywhere in the realm benefits everyone is there a peice of content you haven't done because you feel like the rewards aren't justified for the resources spent. Now imagine if it were buffed. Rewards don't just help lower players they help everyone. And this is a community we have to consider all progression levels because if we only appeal to the 1% of players eventually the 99% will dwindle to mistreatment.

If you are asking for rewards to be buffed you didn't invest as much as someone who isn't asking for it...
Stop using the community to express something you want. This "community" had to do the content you are talking about with a lot less for a lot less while the content was actually hard.

I do the content in game I'm currently 3.1mil and I grind arena and do the daily quests and AW AQ and Bg and Eq and Sq and some times incursions I've been playing since 2017 and I have 2 alt accounts which I also grind both are two different progression levels. And to say the game doesn't cater to whales we must not be playing the same game. Because I don't know if you missed the last event but they could straight of buy a 2 to 3 gem that isn't available anywhere else in the contest and I'm not talking about the one in necro or act 8 exploration. 2-3gems are a hot commodity and the only way to get it is to spend hundreds of dollars on it they only people I see purchasing that are whales. and while I believe you should progress if you spend money that shouldn't be the only way like the daily catalyst quest should be buffed to include the rest of the basic cats and alpha cats and class cats so that while those people who do spend get thier 2-3gem then average player can eventually rank up thier rewards.

Well maybe if you focused on 1 account you wouldn't be complaining.
The game doesn't "cater whales" they BUY what they want. If the game "catered whales" everything you want buffed would have no limits to buy for whales.

I feel like we are getting off topic here. There are areas of the game that need to be buffed or updated to some degree. I'm not saying every buff need to be like a full tier 5 basic or a tier 6 basic or a tier 4 alpha but what I am saying is we may be entering a time where these things need daily quests for us to grind so that we can get fragments for them. This would be avaliable for everyone. Because people who grind the game religiously want to see progress and have a sense of accomplish ment and to say the game doesn't need updating is just wrong imo the rewards haven't been updated in over a year I believe I could be alittle off on this but still the point stands we need to be able to progress more than we currently are I'm currently leveling up characters and I'm having to stick to one at a time when I'd rather do two or three at a time I invest aleast 3 hours a day in this game sometimes 12-15 depending on what's happening in game. And kabam said themselves they want players playing the game less to avoid burnout. And I feel this is a step in the right direction.
