**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event

**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

A more constructive approach would have been to make this announcement much sooner so the issues it creates could have been discussed and more feedback given. By voiding a week of AQ and withholding we earned rewards for an additional week, you have left players in a vulnerable position. They will lose rewards if they are kicked, which they have no control over, or if they leave. And by the time any answers are given, two wars will have been started as well as aq.
So expert alliances who have played your stupid prestige game and found a comfortable position where they only need 1-2 days of map 6 or none at all to sit comfortably in expert tier, will now need to run map 6 and waste potions because of your mistake? Everyone gets rewarded for your mistake but those of us high up in expert get shafted? Wow, what a great solution.
as far as I am concerned we HAVE been affected because we were competing against too may of the wrong alliances who should have been in the advanced, but we will get nothing under the proposed solution.
You should look at scores for an average week to decide who to compensate, not just go with the usual 1700 (and 700); we don't even know how many alliances were misplaced.
The alliance I joined just prior to this past week’s AQ was firmly in Expert tier until the glitch demoted them to Advanced this past week. I played all five days this past week and received the Advanced tier rewards at end of week. From what I understand, I will receive the rewards from Expert tier (where the alliance was and should have been and should be again), but it may take a little longer.
Is that a correct reading?
Dr. Zola
Yes. You will receive the Rewards you gained the week before in the correct Tier but they're aiming for by October 21st so they can make sure people are back in the correct Tier first.
Dr. Zola
Basically the same Rewards you got last week, before the mixup. That's for Players that were misplaced in the wrong Tier.
Kinda seems like typical Kabam.
Not sure I follow this one. If you were one of the Allies misplaced, you'll be keeping the Glory you earned this week, and the Glory you earned in the previous week. That's more than you would have earned in one week.
His issue is this: the glory store costs reset each week, meaning he could have bought an item last week at the lowest cost and then again this week at the lowest cost. However, if he’s short on glory because of the bug (and couldn’t buy a particular item last week because he didn’t get the correct glory), then the two he buys this week will be for a greater glory cost.
DZ
No it doesn’t. Have you purchased items from the Glory Store? Prices aren’t static. The cost increases with each subsequent purchase of, say, T2a shards. His issue as I understand it is that he buys an item (or two) every week at the lowest price(s). Those prices (and purchase limits) reset to the lowest prices every 5 days as I recall. So, T2a shards cost 1000 for the first batch, 1400 for the second batch and 2200 for the third batch. If he buys two batches a week, that’s 2400 glory a week. But...since he didn’t have enough glory for two last week, he spent 1000 glory then and will spend 4600 this week, instead of 2400 each of two weeks. That puts him out 800 glory (nearly another T2a batch at the lowest cost).
That’s the problem.
DZ
Agreed, more stuff this kid grounded fails to see.
(Also, please keep writing DrZola, DZ isn't the same
Exactly what I’m trying to say. And almost the exact scenario that you mentioned. I was trying to buy t2A shards x2 a AQ.
That is my biggest annoyance in this whole situation. Yeah kabam to give us the rewards we should have gotten, I expected that much at least. But not even a consideration of this.
I guess I should just be thanking them for not banning me for the “exploit” of gaining map 3 and 4 crystals. Haha
More of what I don’t need I’m afraid. Yes we will probably do a run of map 6 during the free period or two. I might get some t2a shards from it, most likely not.
No point keeping the rewards if it’s going to cost me more in the glory store.
Look - you might not be in the expert tier or only have a couple of 4 star r5s. I get that it might not affect you as much. But people in my realm are trying to r4 multiple 5 stars and need as much t2a as we can get. It’s a stupidly slow process and already painful enough
