Ali a lot o whining for getting stuff for just playing the game like you normally do? It is just milestones based on the overall fight count? This community is so entitled that if you are not getting shards for nothing nobody is happy? Chances are you were going to do those same fights anyways with nothing extra? If you're okay with bare minimum that is fine. The be grateful just because the game exists thing is getting old.

Don't we always get the dungeon days objective for 3 days everytime anyway...? Nope. Those were only during the summer. There is none this month, for instance.

Free AQ week is pretty lame. Only a subset of players would benefit from this. Any alliance that runs map 4 or less gets no benefit. So i guess half the community is supposed to put in work so the other half gets to save on donation?
Honestly, the rewards are really disappointing ... They are something that would be expected to be released either way, with no relationship with any event.Boosts - Easily obtainable in alliance crystals and alliance events.Dungeons day - It goes with what I stated above, this would be kinda expected even if there was no event to trigger it.Gold Arena - I'll skip that one, since gold is the most easily farmed resource in the game and there is pretty much no problems with it if you play daily.Free Alliance Quest Maps - It's nice, but again not really a suitable reward for an event.I would much rather prefer crystal or catalyst shards than any of these really I was going to post something of the likes, but you said it all. My first impression of this event is that it's a big let down from what it could have been. There was so much potential, but its mostly trivial amounts of resources that are already easy to obtain in the game as you said. I guess its free so there's that, but it could have been much much better. This is our first time doing this, so if you see room for improvement, share it with us! We wouldn't want to give direct in-game items, but if you have ideas for other kinds of events we could run in the future, let us know!

If you're okay with bare minimum that is fine. The be grateful just because the game exists thing is getting old. The everything is boring and everything is outdated and the game is stale thing was old three years ago when everyone was saying the game was not going to be around for much longer unless Kabam started making rewards "more relevant."The problem is not that some people are happy with the "bare minimum." The problem is some people think anything they aren't happy with is the bare minimum.I don't think the event is the bare minimum, and I would be happy to play the game with only the people who likewise didn't constantly think the game was going downhill. I would bet that's more than 98% of the actual players of the game, even if it seems to be only 2% of the forum posters.
I for one am pleased that they have done this but no matter what, they cant cater to everyone. Everyone is at different stages in the game, but progress on their own terms. Not when everyone tells them too. I think that's the whole point they are trying to convey.
We're trying to help Kabam by saying more exciting rewards, if you think that people will just keep coming and it's a select few we'll let the numbers decide.
We're trying to help Kabam by saying more exciting rewards, if you think that people will just keep coming and it's a select few we'll let the numbers decide. No, you won't. If everyone who said that actually held to it over the last four years, the forums would contain 99% retractions, instead of 99% complaints.
I for one am pleased that they have done this but no matter what, they cant cater to everyone. Everyone is at different stages in the game, but progress on their own terms. Not when everyone tells them too. I think that's the whole point they are trying to convey. But they can cater to everyone, they have many times in the past. They have progression based titles that they could have broken down real REWARDS(crystals, shards & rank up materials), instead of a (not great) resource mgmt tool, some boosts, gold and free AQ that "applies to all." But is doesn't apply to all, maybe 5% of the playerbase will play more because of these rewards, maybe 10%. But most here aren't excited. Kabam could have easily gotten 90-95% of the active playerbase to be excited & play more to reach decent, non game breaking progression-based rewards. This is fact and not conjecture. The rewards for last years Nov 2018 event was better than now. There's no way to get hype for an event that is more than a year behind in rewards. My hope is the Var 4 and 6.3 are exceptional. It worries me a bit the way most a talking about it. I don't even see the usual bunch aggressively defending Kabam which is more than odd.

I think what you're referring to is the Champion's Clash, which was a special High Difficulty Challenge Quest, and not a Side Quest such as this. It was, at the time, one of the most difficult challenges that we had ever introduced. It consisted of 2 Chapters: The first of which was accessible, but difficult for most Mid-High Tier Summoners.The second was a very difficult quest that was a challenge even for our top end players. You can take a look back at that Quest here, and the reaction that it garnered in the following pages: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/109351/announcing-the-champion-s-clash/Challenge Quests are not the same as Side Quests. They are special occurrences that happen from time to time. In fact, we recently did a Content Creator Boss Rush in September that was significantly easier and contained a 5-Star Crystal as the reward. That would be a more apt comparison.
