What does this table even mean? Re: summoner sigil subscription

It says something about compensation in units for banked days, blah, blah.

How is it possible to have 571+ days of sigil remaining? Or does this mean back pay for total days people have been buying the old sigil?

I'm not understanding it.

If u been buying it for years u be over 500 days so they just compensating that as its gonna basically reset

Well that would be awesome, I've been buying it for basically a whole year so you're saying I'll get bulk units sent to me?

Feuerschwer

so it’s compensation if you had days of the current sigil saved up when new sigil goes live. In theory you can buy 30 days of sigil repeatedly and build up a big backlog, but 95% of players probably just rebuy when they get the popup and will have only a couple weeks worth when the change goes through.

Basically yes

You’ll probably get the 1-15 day package.

Ah right, that makes sense. I had no idea you could buy bulk sigils at once

@DNA3000 seems you'll be getting plenty of units soon, huh?

By my calculations, I should be in the 361-390 bracket on the 27th when the new subscription arrives.

Well **** my timer reset a few times.. this blows 🤣

You can only buy it once at a time. However, the notification that your sigil was running out and you could buy it again was designed to be triggered 23 days after the last time you bought it, not seven days before it expired. This meant that if you bought it as soon as it became available to purchase you'd be buying it with seven days left from the previous purchase. This can stack up repeatedly, as the offer does not look at how much time you have left, only how much time it has been since the last time you bought.

Buying it as soon as it becomes available means you could buy it almost sixteen times in a single year, gaining over a hundred days of extra time in that year.

This is so wrong.

Is it even possible for someone to have 571+ days or they just kept on going on the chart out of boredom?

DNA3000

I believe the Sigil was introduced in August of 2019. Given the mechanics of renewal, I believe it has been theoretically possible to buy the Sigil about 86 times since then. That would mean someone could have bought 2580 days of Sigil over the last 1980 days. That means it is theoretically possible for someone to have banked about 600 days, plus or minus, if they were religiously diligent about renewal as fast as possible. There's some wiggle room i that number, there was an initial seven day free period on release, and I don't remember if there were any others. But I believe it is mathematically possible to have banked 571 days by the time the new subscription rolls around.

Either someone at Kabam did the same calculation as I just did and decided there was no reason to extend the table beyond 600 days (the next bracket would have been 601-630) or they datamined the sigil clock for everyone and cut the table off where the highest player showed up, which would imply someone might actually have that much time banked.

Good to know thanks

DNA3000

Just to make sure there is no confusion, in case anyone has the wrong idea, the chart is not a veteran bonus for subscribing for that many days. The chart is compensation for any player that has banked time in the Sigil that will never get the benefits of that time, because the original Sigil program is going away and any time bought and still on the clock is simply going to vanish.

Basically, on January 27, the game is going to look at this:

Whatever that says, that table determines the compensation you're going to get.

Demonzfyre

The in-game message explains it. They are turning off the sigil for a week. So depending on how much time you have left, this is the compensation you get when you have to resubscribe.

A whole year worth of not having to buy sigil
