    Not a bad idea actually. Problem with this is the people who will complain about people “grtting double rewards”. This community is so backwards and petty I can see it. Lol

    There is no reason to complain about double rewards when they are earned. Those who completed it did so on a harder level than those doing it on the nerfed version. This is by far the best solution


    For sure

    This idea sits well with me. That way compensation won’t have to be given out and the rewards are kept the same.

    I really do think this would make most of the community happy. And it isn’t even fixed yet so the people who would like to do it the way it is still have time

    Anyone who actually threw revives into that fight for 3k 5* Shards and some gold doesn't deserve any compensation whatsoever lol
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Posts: 418 ★★★
    True. But lots of people did I’m sure

    I’d be down for that as compensation.
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Posts: 418 ★★★
    Ya I think it’s fair

    I agree with the idea. People who completed the event should keep their rewards. The nerfed version should have another set of rewards which everyone (people who completed and didn’t complete) should be able to get. These would be the same 3k 5* shards and 500k gold.

    This way Kabam doesn’t have recompensate everyone in a different manner for whatever the person had to do - rank up, revives, etc. because that first 3k 5* shards and 500k gold was enough of an impetus for them to spend those resources.

    Also, they should announce it in advance so that If someone wants to do both difficulties (even if they want to spend their way through it), they could.

    Tbh I don't feel like there's a need for compensation. We've come so far in terms of communication and listening to the community.
    For those who completed it, it was their choice to throw revives or rank up champions. (Both of which I did)

    I think it's an interesting solution, and it would most likely be less time-consuming than having to sift through every player who either raise a ticket about it, or who completed it pre-nerf.

    From my point of view:
    Low-to-middle skill player, cav/EB who had happened to save up revives for a push on chapter 3 of V5: decided to rank up 4 different 4*s to see if they would work on SS (the joy of wanting to do for your alliance members). Yes, I got Silvie down on Su difficulty, but damn if it cost me. I counted around 6 lvl 2 revives (because I am a scrub and honestly was getting pretty sloppy-frustrated towards the end), HP + attack + minor champ boost, as well as the resources to take up HT (interesting idea, didn't work), CMM (worked decently, but I play her like a donkey) and Colossus (would have worked, but I fell asleep during fight from boredom) to test them out.

    Absolutely my own choice, but I was of the impression this was the difficulty, so whether I waited a week, or two weeks, it would not be an easier fight.

    For the record, I took the road less traveled, and grinded him down with a R5 CapIW, backed up by Cosmic teammate for the armor break.

    Anyway, point being, if they were going to comp those that completed Su difficulty pre-nerf, it would be a logistical nightmare, because one thing is too throw a blanket care package with some revives and boosts, but seeing as the encounter is so insanely counter-specific (what are we looking at, 10 champions that can realistically do it?), chances are a lot of people will have ranked up one, if not several champions to be able to do it. The nerf will mean more champions will be able to live long enough to finish it.

    Best way to avoid it would be to leave it and not change it

    Was just about to say this.

    For everyone that already beat showdown they should just let us keep the rewards we already got and then still be able to do the new one and get rewards. Saves you guys from having to decide on what compensation should be

    Good idea.

    I blame this mess on weak players and Kabam who surrendered under pressure.

    Just font bother with compensation. Anyone who has dumped resources into this, well its on them. I’d say anyone with half a brain could see there was a good chance it was getting nerfed and if not, nobody should be dropping revives for 3k 5* shards unless it’s a 20% to get them across the line

    You can't say that anyone with "half a brain" could see the nerf coming. Based on past experiences, this being nerfed was a pleasant surprise.

    Maybe not but anyone who chucked resources at such paltry rewards on day 2 of a 30 day event has only themselves to blame.

    When will the Nerf to the difficulty be added? I just logged on and tried, but still only able to bring 4 stars.

    Likely 6pm UK time when boss rushes release etc.

    I think compensation should be those that were able to 1 shot it.
    The fact that it shows you guys never had to deal with kabams shittycustomerservice really shows.
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Posts: 418 ★★★
    I just think it would make the most amount of people happy
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Posts: 418 ★★★
    At least it will make me happy. Lol
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Posts: 418 ★★★
    Don’t let this get lost. It’s a great idea the mods need to see
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Posts: 418 ★★★
    I still think this is the best idea given so far
  • LilMaddogHTLilMaddogHT Posts: 1,165 ★★★★
    You can avoid compensation even if it comes...

    Wouldn't that technically be compensation?
  • odogg9941odogg9941 Posts: 418 ★★★
    No. It would be you beat it good for you. If you didn’t then you don’t get the extra rewards
