Question regarding the cost of maxing out the Heart of Fire event

Despite being unsure on whether I'd like to spend or not, I was curious about what the money cost of maxing out the milestones would be if one was to start off with no units at all. I'm aware of the 36,900 unit cost but what is the cheapest way to max it out with just web store and in-game offers? Seen some people claiming over 1000$ which is the equivalent of 10+ odins which is also roughly 30k+ units but aren't these crystal offers there for a more efficient way to spend money? Hoping for some clarifications and calculations on this if possible.

If there are no cash offers for crystals, then $1,000 is about correct. It'll cost 33.9k units on top of the units earned in the milestones. So roughly 10 Odin's.

The real aim of this event is to get you spending all the units you purchased during the Deadpool event

I went through some old videos:
Valiant Crystal Bundle - $50 - 11 crystals - 3/3 purchase cap
Paragon Crystal Bundle $50 - 11 crystals - 3/3 purchase cap
7 star crystal bundle- $70 - 12 valiant crystal + 7 star crystal - 1/1 cap
Buying all Valiant bundles and 7star bundle: 45 valiant crystals = $200 = 13500 units worth
There are some other cavalier bundles but idt you would want to spend on that.

If Im currently sitting at 27k, and the milestones has 9k units, will that be enough to get me to Dark Phoenix?

No.

You need 33.9k, plus the 9.6k in milestones

How much was each individual valiant crystal? Was it 300?

Thanks for the reply. I still have the growth reward bundle for level 63 that I can buy so that's 3k units. Then if I buy the plat pass I guess that's 1k more. Im still 2.9k short, that's like 10 Valiant crystals. will there be Valiant crystal bundles for 50$ on the web store during the event?

There’s a reply earlier that states there were some crystals for cash offers last year - if that was the case, I’d say it’s quite likely to be repeated this year

They said in the stream it’ll cost the same as last year which was 36.9k so you’ll need 36.9k to reach the final milestone

The math says 33.9k, in addition to the 9.6k

When did these deals appear? Were they available the day the event went live or later on in the event?

I get that but how could last year cost 36.9k but it work out different?

Interesting which milestone will give 7* selector since Dark Phoenix is in the last or maybe last two milestones.

Because it didn’t cost that last year.

The math is using last years data.

Where’s your math for this?

Bear in mind the 31 para+ crystals should be over 1 column to the right - totals are still correct however

Rich is notoriously bad with numbers.

If there’s an issue with the calculations above, let me know. But “go look at richtheman” is not a valid, or considered, counter.

Lots of numbers. No context. I’ve given you both numbers and context earlier. Just because your favourite YouTubers say something, doesn’t make it true / correct.

By all means, spend the additional 3000 units and let us know what you get for the hidden / secret 420 point milestone.

It's a calculation made by DNA3000, and it's correct (here's the link: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/365949/units-required-for-omega-event/p1)

Maybe you're right to be skeptical of all information that's spread, but a little less condescension would do your life wonders

Someone helpfully pointed out where the issue was in another post.

Not so much condescension, more inviting people to highlight the issue as opposed to posting no context screenshots, or “go watch this” posts.
