Why so high Donations for Map 7 that People have to Buy them?!

@Kabam Miike
Every single alliance member doing Map 7 has to ‘Buy’ donations from other players (Regular Sellers). Because of this reason many players have stopped joining Map 7 alliances. The Donations in Map 7 are so high that its very difficult to cover up. In the end its promoting the Buy/Sell activity of resources between players. This is not how the game should function! Why do we have to spend Real Money to cover donations for Map 7? Its just ridiculous!

    @Lvernon15 No one enjoys grinding arena for resources. Arenas are already such boring and repetitive...no fun at all...more like slavery. Whats a videogame without fun?

    You shouldn't try to assume everyone feels the same as you, not everyone buys donations, not everyone hates arenas. When we did map 7, donations weren't an issue. We had players who traded donation items. We also have a ton of arena grinders, some do hate it but some enjoy it.

    Overall, the rewards for map 7 don't justify the high donations, imo, which is why we stopped map 7 and just maintain a top 150 doing map 6s.

    I mean I’m not a fan of the donations system as a whole, but if it is in place the highest map should require the highest effort to enter

    @Lvernon15 Skills should be above Donations....for joining Map 7. But now its more about who can afford donations.

    Skills are required to complete the map. Anyone can donate, but you can't get the rewards with the skill, individual and bg.

    @AzKicker316 how many players can actually handle donations without Buying or Exchanging? Why is donation not easy to be managed on our own? Why force ourself to do boring arena grinding to get donations? And what about Loyalty shortage? We need it to buy Boosts and then Donations too which is terrible. We need Gold for ranking champs. And BC is largely from Arenas which by now are so boring and repetitive.

    Donation system is loved by Top Alliances because they donot mind Buying it from sellers. The Day kabam reduces or removes Donations....these so called Top Alliances who are loaded with spenders....will have good competition from Alliances who donot prefer buying donations.

    Map 7 is a choice, and not everyone should have the opportunity to get the highest rewards if they can't meet the requirements. There is also resource management. You don't NEED to buy boosts all the time with loyalty. Arenas are there as a way to collect gold and chips, otherwise use units for donations. There are more than 1 way to get the job done. Again, map 7 isn't for everyone.

    You do need skills for map 7, if you can’t complete your path then you can’t do map 7, and some of the paths are pretty difficult like prove yourself mesmerise

    lol you don't need to buy boosts? Try being in tier 1-3 ally and not needing boosts for AW. Typically if you are not AQ focused, you are also doing high tier war with map 7. Not everyone has 10 hours to spend in arenas grinding out gold, BC. Donations should be far lower than what they are. Map 6-7 are already punishing with how much time and effort is required without the added burden of having to regularly grind simply mind-numbing and boring arena, just to play map 6/7.

    Map 6 punishing? No chance! My bg uses very little items for AQ, and we're all map 6 top 150. For our tier 4 wars, boosts aren't required every path. All I'm saying is that boosts aren't required if you're set up properly. Donations may be high for map 7, but they are a separator for those that shouldn't be doing that map. Map 7 is a mix of skill and bg timing, so not everyone is ready for that commitment. Now that donations can be made with units, it gives folks an alternative to be able to make donations.

    Still sounds like a choice...

    Gold and bc are ok imo, if you grind arena they’re perfectly fine to get, but loyalty donations are literally higher than the total loyalty you can possibly earn in a week

    Yeah the gold and bc really aren't bad at all even with minimal arena grinding. Loyalty I find is easier managed splitting with units though. 200-250 units a week for half your loyalty donations is pretty easy to keep up with and still leaves plenty of loyalty for store items

    I feel AQ should not require loyalty donations at all. AW and AQ should be completely seperate modes. One should not rely on the other.

    The donate system should go away for every map imo. We do just map 5 and its super low but why is that system in place anyway? It makes no sense at all. Same with item cap. Back in my day (2016) there was no item cap. That was cool.
