    Yes this needs to be resolved.... Those who have done even 98% of act6 leaving one chapter in both act 6.3 and 6.4 got same compensation as that who did just a initial run....

    I got the same as OP for completion. Guess what? I wouldn't have been able to get Cav when I did with the new poison node on Xbones and I had Ronan for CAIW, so Kabam basically gave me compensation for doing the easy version of Act 6. 😂

    Wait, didn't we complete act 6 at the same time? I got like 5% of what you did as compensation 😐

    I'm not even upset about what I got, I just think its odd that I got the same as him when I could have waited to fight that Sinister boss and saved more revives than I was compensated for

    Still waiting for 6.1 comp
    Crossbones was nerfed (even though he didn't need it)
    And I did the fight before the nerf, way before so us players who did it before at least get to have 1 revive or an energy refill

    Same here. I was hoping for 1-2

    Lol, I got Cav a long time ago though and then just blitzed my way through 6.2 - 6.4 in a week-long period. Maybe something to do with that?

    This for 100% exploration

    60% revives. Nice.
    Curious how you view the compensation for 100% being fairly similar to the compensation for the champion boss?




    5 less revives, similar health potions, 17 less energy refills and 3 less boosts. Not a whole lot of difference for 1 fight vs 100% of the entire act

    That's a interesting comparison. There isn't a huge difference between the 2. My mind goes straight to that the Champion fight was one of the biggest pain points in Act 6 and that coupled with how the changed how he interacts with BWCV and MS caused them to give more stuff. Possibly over compensating because of all aspects of that fight, not just the path change and reduction of indestructible charges. Could be as well the difficulty of the no retreat path compared to the easier paths in the rest of act 6. I'd be curious to know the thought process behind the two.
    I definitely would want to hear kabams reasoning behind one boss being roughly similar to the rest of the act. Unfortunately my mind jumps to kabam just being a bit tight, as scaling up the champion fight to the rest of the act is between 2-20 times as difficult and costly depending on who you ask.

    I did Act 6 completion and got the lvl 4 health and lvl 2 revives. I'm happy, as I was holding off doing Mulaney ch. 2 until I got a good number of revives. These will help very nicely.

    Are the lvl 3 revives for thos that 100% Act 6?

    Could've just given back the unit equivalent of said compensation because that's what I spent. Most importantly, it wouldn't expire. Oh well, not unexpected.

    I think expiring items are inappropriate compensation. However, at least they released them just in front of some heavy content coming out. Giving expiring items sucks in general though but it is what they do. I did get a lot so that is good. But I am pretty sure I will be struggling to use these before they expire. They won't give units which stinks but I really wish the items they gave did not expire.

    In this case, you have a extremely busy month of content being released. Book 2, variant 6 and all the EQs, SQs, and BBQs to use that stuff on.

    Sinister boss wasn't that bad even without a fury buff, just a long fight and turn off dex.

    Lol the fight had emp mod, just baiting specials would burst you down with energy damage or the block damage from the sp1 would kill you. It was almost impossible to one shot without the fury buff, even with a fury buff unless you're a high level quaker

    SO I complete act 6 before one of my alliance mates and they got it and I didn't. Is this happening to anyone else?
  • Doctor_Strange19Doctor_Strange19 Member Posts: 255 ★★★

    Hey there everyone, just to clear things up a bit, this compensation is specifically for changes made to Act 6 Chapter 3 and 4. Additionally, this compensation is rolling out to players in waves, so while it has reached some players, it may not have reached others yet.

    So is there going to be compensation for 6.1 and 6.2?

    There should be now that mordo and sinister were nerfed a little bit.

    What compensation would there even be for 6.2 and 1 - The Mordo boss is pretty much the same and if anything the Crossbones fight got harder. Sinister was a bit tuned down but the basics of the fight are still the same.

    Can u please also explain why those who completed much more than initial completion but not 100% got same package as initial completion.... Also why is scaling of compensation package for those who did initial completion vs those who did 100% act 6 so illogical??

    That should have been in the in-game message.
    So is this the only compensation we will be getting?

    Anyone else absolutely hate the fact that Kabam purposefully gave us more revives/pots than our inventories can hold? I feel like they're trying to force me to buy the sigil.

    Or just, ya know, use them on content
    Worknprogress: use revives on content
    Also worknprogress: content easy no need for revives
    I'm not the one complaining about having revives and thought Act 6 needed to get nerfed. Everyone keeps saying it's still hard. Now they can go finish it.

    All this let's me do is day drink during exploration and not care about sloppy play. I'm good with it. Whatever is left expires. Who cares?
    Not all of us have the luxury of letting thinhs expire.
    As a f2p player if I let a bunch of revives and potions expire it's just gonna be units going down the drain. Unfortunately Im not a whale that can't just stock up on revives and complete content in 40 hits with a full team of rank 3 6 stars
    So use them on content...
    Me: ok let's do a path in 6.2.6.
    Me: sees do you bleed rougue

    Also me: only Bleed champ is 6 star NF whose bleeds will barely do any damage.

    My point is act 6 still has many fight where you need specific counters and I'm not complaining. But saying I should use them on content when I literally can't due to niche fights just shows how inflated your ego is.
    Has nothing to do with ego. They didn't HAVE to do anything. They could have changed Act 6 and left it at that. I'd have been fine with it and even said I wished they would. This is what they did, you can choose to use it to the best or your ability or just let it go. Makes not one bit of difference to me.
    My point exactly. Your only talking in terms of yourself. A player who has spent a ridiculous amount of money on this game. Things like revives don't matter to you. T5 basic catalyst probably don't even faze you.

    But for me every revive counts. Every unit counts.
    That's essentially letting 40 units go down the drain.

    For 1 second let go of that mentality and come down from your pedestal and put yourself in our shoes.

    So... Go...Finish...The...Content

    You're the one wanting things tailor made for your situation not me. But I'm the one worried about my own situation?
    Well I can't finish the content can I if I don't have the one counter that is needed for the fight!!!

    Unless I wanna blow units which isn't an option
    Blow the revives you just got...
