Sun's Out, Fun's Out! Summer Smackdown is ON!

IT’S TIME TO THROW DOWN

Hey Summer-ners.

Starting tomorrow SUMMER SMACKDOWN - ALPHA will become available. A new Boss Rush is going to drop every Wednesday for the next 6 weeks, starting tomorrow! The first five are your typical Boss Rushes, with fights collected from Event Quests of days past. Allowing you to re-fight some of your favorite (or less than favorite) bosses.

Week 6 is SUMMER SMACKDOWN - OMEGA. This quest requires you to beat the previous 5 weeks in order to unlock it. Once you’re able to take it on, you’ll need to plan your team carefully. Because week 6 is a gauntlet combining the fights from the previous 5 weeks for the ultimate challenge.

Each of the first 5 weeks rewards you with a pair of SMACKDOWN SHADES. These will be tiered to the difficulty you completed, get 5 of any tier and that difficulty of week 6 will become available on Sept 2nd 10:00 AM PDT! You won’t spend these to enter the quest either, so you can try it as many times as you’d like.

HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO COMPLETE THESE QUESTS?
Once Omega is released, you’ll have two weeks to complete all 6 Quests before they disappear on Sept 23rd 10:00 AM PDT. But none of the first 5 weeks will disappear before then.

IS THIS THE SUMMER OF PAIN THING I’VE BEEN HEARING ABOUT?
no.

IS THIS THE SUMMONER SHOWDOWN THING?
no.

HOW HARD ARE THE QUESTS?
Unlike our usual Boss Rushes, we’ve added difficulty options similar to our other Event quests. This will be unique to this event. So everyone should have a difficulty they can comfortably take on.

REMEMBER. If you want to complete Week 6 on a Difficulty, you’ll need the 5 SMACKDOWN SHADES of that Difficulty.

WHAT ARE THE REWARDS?
The first 5 quests have their own set of rewards. They will be consistent across the 5 weeks with the main prizes being behind the 6th week, OMEGA. Below is a Breakdown.

Plus, collect these SICK titles for completing OMEGA on each difficulty.

Easy - Far Out
Medium - Wicked Gnarly
Heroic - Bodacious
Master - Totally Rad
Epic - The Big Kahuna

This kicks off tomorrow, July 29th at 10am PDT!

EDIT: Adding some Answers to questions from the Thread:

Are there Energy Requirements?
It's 1 per Step. That means weeks 1-5 will be pretty low, but the Omega Quest will differ in length depending on the difficult. Epic has A LOT of fights in there.

How Difficult will it be?
Each fight will be about approximately at the difficulty level of the Boss in the equivalent Event Quest.

Will we have to select the 10% T5CC as soon as we finish the final boss like other selectors? or will we be able to open it later?

Why would you think it would be different

falconXYZ

What rarity will the titles be?

Thanks kabam as long as it isn't as hard as the maze.

NO I THINK REWARDS ARE FINE, BUT WE SHOULD SEE DIFFICULTY FIRST

WHY ARE WE YELLING?

I DON'T KNOW, ISN'T THIS HOW WE'RE SUPPOSED TO COMMUNICATE IN THIS SHOW... whoops, wrong comments section

Rodomontade_Boi

Ok I have a weird question
So first 5 weeks of epic (judging from the rewards) won't be super crazy difficult right? Because omega epic looks insane. Considering the connection of "epic" with the difficulty, I'd imagine omega would be crazy. Hope the first 5 weeks on epic aren't? Lol

WE NEED 6 STAR NEXUS FOR OMEGA QUEST EPIC DIFFICULTY

Summoner006

Will there be level or progression based requirements that outline which difficulty you can attempt? Cause I have an alt account that is Uncollected, but not level 40, and I really want to try Epic out on that account...

And thats just 1 of the events happening for next month.
True. I've been saving shards since Kabam announced dual class crystals, and this is definitely helping nicely.

Same here, are you saving GMC or 6* shards too ? Or just 5*

The_Sentry06

Yayy I am quite excited

Shafeeq

Epic omega about to be hard af
No way they are just gonna give away 2 full t5b like that
Good. I hope it makes me cry with how hard it is. I’ve been gunning for some hard content since I explored Act 6. I can’t wait to put my 6r3s to a real test.

WE can also get some t5 basics using glory
