Not getting many points...

You know it's really not that bad. As an UC player, getting my 2nd 6* this week is a good trade off.

Looks like i won't be getting all those shiny 2* crystals (which I was super excited to see) this time 😢

Me too, I love collecting 2*s. Easy to max, and difficult to get.

Rounds to get 6* and 5* Shards: 600

Time to complete each round, incl char select, game issues, helps: 2 min

Total Time: 1200 Min or 20 Hours

Avg Time Per Day Req in Arena: 2 Hours and 51 Minutes

You guys really thought that was a good thing to throw at players?

At the very least bump arena to finish at the end of the month.

What the hell did you do to mathematics to end up with those numbers?

If the arena was all month long I wouldn’t be annoyed, but I work 8 hours a day. How is this arena even going to be possible.

They should've called this the "punishing arena". Today wasn't a celebration, today was a massive trashfest

i just can't get over how it takes 3 hours every day to do this.... how can people find the time ill never know

Respectfully, I understand that we aren’t entitled to a bunch of 5 and 6 star shards and while I would certainly like them, I’m okay with just not getting them. But you could not pay me actual money to grind out 5 million points for the two arenas at 5,000 points per fight in one week.

1000 fights. Over 300 rounds. People are just not going to do this. You might as well have just not done this at all and saved yourself the backlash.

Edit: had the point total wrong but my point still stands

Big yikes on the arena grind. I can't do 100 fights a day to get the 5 mil points we need. Very few players really can

What is mathematically incorrect?

Not at all. Just a fat grind. In my opinion the benefits outweigh the costs.

Respectfully, I understand that we aren’t entitled to a bunch of 5 and 6 star shards and while I would certainly like them, I’m okay with just not getting them. But you could not pay me actual money to grind out 7 million points for the two arenas at 5,000 points per fight in one week.

1400 fights. Almost 500 rounds. People are just not going to do this. You might as well have just not done this at all and saved yourself the backlash.

Almost 3 hrs a day, for a week, for half a 6*? I'm telling you if you put in that time in the remaining content and featured arenas, you'll get a buttload of gold and units, which are much more valuable? And you'll progress damn far

There's a nice stack of them this time too 😭

Dang, guess I'll just tell my family I can't make Christmas celebrations because I'll be grinding arena... This does seem a bit excessive. I'm fine with it being more work than the previous special arenas we have had, but this is a LOT more work.

You didn't factor in game outages lol it'll take even longer.

Maybe kabam just didnt want to give away 6 star shards so this is what they chose. Just wanted to make it look like they were going to give them to us

There were 5k shards in the gift package

Please BOOST arena points !!!!

It feels a bit insane if anyone may think basic points are OK with only 1-star & 2-star needing to get those high of points. Assuming you don't want to participate in other Arenas too.

I could understand if it allowed 5-Star and 6-Star champs. That's why I feel it's an error in the points not being correct.

He just knew about the maintenance is all

WRIR

This is so out of touch, and simply unreasonable. Like its really easy math. The only way I see this happening is someone on top NOT doing the easy math and saying "Multipliers will make it too easy" without thinking about the 1 and 2 star restriction.

You know, I think my reaction to those numbers might be the name of the arena.

F***ing hell.

I mean seriously, I’m an arena grinder, hard arena grinder, but this is ridiculous. It’s just not feasible
Lmao this is low key easy

If you are a TRUE Arena Grinder you really wouldn’t be saying that

No. It’s really not. I hit all the milestones in the 4* basic, featured and 5* featured, plus the catalyst arenas. I maybe do 200 rounds per round overall.

This is 1.5x that. In two arenas. On top of all the other content they are pouring out. And the regular arenas. And incursions. And AW and AQ
