Where are the T5b cats?????

We will start September tomorrow and with that, there will be officially only 4 months left before you "Early 2018".
Kabam said 6* will become playable in "Early 2018". Yet we still have ZERO access to T5b cats.
In fact, ZERO new information about these cats has been given to the community.

Do we have a release date for these cats yet? In advance I thank you for your time and look forward to the releasing of that information.

    Act 5 completion or exploration is most likely when they will start showing up kinda like t2 alphas in act 4 completion and exploration.

    Well, I hope is a lot earlier than that because otherwise they'd be released pretty much within days of 6* being playable.
    This whole thing is stupid, no fully maxed out 5* before the release of playable 6* is either lack of foresight or a genius money grab.

    We haven't announced when 6-Stars will be playable yet, and we intend to have Tier 5 Basics out before 6-Stars will be obtainable by Summoners.

    I remembered vividly you saying early 2018, how many months do you think it's gonna take us to Max out a 5*? You wanna release 6*s for us to play in content without us maxing out our 5*s right? Genius money grab, really you guys should stop treating your community like fools and start doing things right, how can a game have 80mil plus downloads and less than 1.5mil active players? That tells you how great a job you guys are doing, keep it up kabam, really great job...

    Er, YOU DID Mike.
    You all said they would become playable in "Early 2018". Which I know is open to our interpretation to anywhere in the first four or five months of the year.
    Whereas with T5bs you were conveniently and casually very vague about their release other than offering that it will be "before" 6* become playable.
    How long before 6* become playable you all plan on releasing those t5b?

    Did you not read the announcement? They said Act V part 4 will be released December 2017, which is before "early 2018." If I was a betting man, I'd bet that Act V exploration rewards is when we would see T5B. I don't think anyone expected T5B to be released in 5.3.

    "Early 2018" could cover a wide range of dates; could be the first trimester, first quarter, etc. Unless they said "at the start of 2018", I wouldn't realistically expect 6* to be playable until mid/late March, at the earliest. Just my educated guess based on past experience with Kabam's teasing of "anticipated" release dates.

    Not defending Kabam at all, but I've come to the conclusion that they don't release specific dates/times just to see how many players they can make react irrationally strictly for their entertainment. >:)


    I'm also guessing that whenever I get my first 6*, he/she will sit at rank 1, level 35(?) for a while.

    When 5* were first introduced, I was very much involved with the big spenders, hardcore on every aspect of the game, blah blah and it was no question that taking a 4* 5/50, albeit only specific 'god-tier" ones, were a better investment; obviously that is changing since I'm referring to the state of the game many months ago.


    I've since "retired" to more casual game-play, but I still use my maxed 4* to finish special event quests and explore Act 5; much more challenging without question, but my situation is different because nobody in our group is under any pressure to progress ahead of the competition.


    Anyway, don't give them the glory of making you go crazy wondering when new content will be released, just enjoy the game for the time being and do what makes it fun for you.

    Be well. B)

    Ugh...facepalm...
    1. I don't give three craps about when 5.4 gets released. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT T5B cats here.
    2. Do you realize that if you are implying that t5b cats will be a reward for completing act 5. Then those cats will be in the game ONLY FOR A FEW DAYS/WEEKS before 6* are playable?

    You should give three craps about when 5.4 is released cause that's when you'll ever get a glimpse of T5B. Do you think when 6* are released, you'll have a duped 6* starlord ready to go? Nope, I doubt most will even have enough shards for half of one.

    That's 37 5-stars you have to dupe over ~4 months, assuming you pull consistent dupes (very unlikely) you would still need to average 10 5*s a month to get a 6* by early 2018. Most people get 1-2 a month, but let's say you get 3 5* a month. You would need to pull dupes consistently for over 12 months starting today before you saw your first 6*. Then you probably want to factor in how long it would take to dupe him. So 5* 5/65s will be reigning supreme for a long while. People need to stop and actually think about things before overreacting.

    You will probably get 3600 shards for 100% exploration of ACt 5, needing 36000 to form a full one. They will bleed them in next years monthly quests probably at 3600 shards per month.

    The worrying issue is, I am sure Act 5 completion will earn enough to max 1 5*, but from there... Act 6 will be MONTHS away, if they introduce shards like they do with t2 alphas in event quests, it's gonna take 10 months just to form 1 basic catalyst.

    I am surprised they aren't handing out like 5 basics just for 4.3, as there is a huuuge drought on basics and 8 are needed just to max a 4*, need more for a 5*.

    If they introduce them for AQ, only the top 100 alliances if that will even get access to the t5 basics, which is just gonna suck.

    They will have to go from being so rare/unseen, to 70% of the player base able to access them, which is never going to happen.

    Stop with your logic dude, that's not gona fly over here when apparently everyone's roster will be full of 6 stars the day they're released!

    Do you realize that it will still be months after 6 stars are playable for the vast majority of players can actually open one. Even then more than half the champions in game aren't worth ranking up till they are duped so it will be at a year- year and a half until someone has a viable 6 star to rank up over a good five star. It will be a long long time before 6 stars are commonly used to even if they release t5 basic on the day they release 6 stars there will still be a long path of progression from 5 stars to 6 stars

    I'm sure they're capable. Just the expectations that are rampant.
