Fantastic Force 7 Star Shards
Firstly, a genuine thank you, Kabam, for the free key for the Fantastic Fluctuating Box.
I claimed my gift of the free key, opened the Box and received 5k Fantastic Force 7 star crystal shards.
I’m not sure if this was mentioned anywhere previously and if already answered somewhere else - my apologies. But I have a question about the Fantastic Force 7 star shards.
15k shards are required to form a crystal in order to be able to obtain anything actually usable or tangible. Currently it seems the only source for the Fantastic Force 7 star shards is from the Box. Keys are required to re-open the Box and it seems the only source for additional keys beyond the initial free key is with $$$.
So my question is - what does that mean for people that received 5k shards and who choose not to spend on this event? Will there be other avenues to obtain Fantastic Force 7 star shards, beyond just $$$, to be able to make actual use of the 5k shards? Or if you choose not to spend, will the 5k shards just sit in your inventory collecting dust similar to excess Grandmaster/Cavalier/Paragon shards (that aren’t quite enough to form a crystal) that most Valiant players have had in their inventory for a long time that have been sitting there not doing much except collecting dust?
As mentioned - I’m not meaning to sound ungrateful. If they are going to just sit there then that’s fine as I acknowledge Kabam did not need to provide the gift of the free key and there is certainly nothing that entitles players to expect to receive a free key in the first place.
just curious and wanting to know - e.g. whether I can look forward to an opportunity in the future to obtain more shards to form a crystal?
Thanks.
