Announcing: The Champions of Valhalla Event

Summoners!

The Grandmaster has set up a new tournament in The Battlerealm, to find the most worthy among all of his Summoners! In doing so, he’s bringing a lot of new things to the contest that you’ll want to know about!

The Champions of Valhalla Event begins November 1st! This event is full of new and exciting events, and details, including a new Leaderboard, a new type of Solo Event and a whole new feature called Bounty Missions!

But first, let’s dig into the biggest part of the event, a new temporary currency called Valor!

Win Valor to prove your Worth!

Valor is a new limited-time currency you can earn throughout the Champions of Valhalla event. It can be earned in four main areas:
The “Gods of the Arena” Event Quest (The November Event Quest)
- November 4-Star Featured Hero Arenas
- New Vanquishing Blow Solo Events
- New Bounty Mission - Test of Valor

You can accumulate Valor, and then use it in the limited time Valor Store, where Summoners will be able to purchase items like 4-Star Hero Crystals, 5-Star Hero Crystal Shards, Tier 4 Class Catalyst Crystals, and Tier 2 Alpha Fragments! (See below for all the details!)

But Valor has an even more important role to play… Collect Valor to prove yourself as the true Champion of Valhalla!

Prove your Worth on the Valor Leaderboard!

In addition to being able to spend Valor in the Valor Store, it will also be cumulatively tracked on the Valor Leaderboard! Don’t worry, this is a cumulative total, so if tracks all of the Valor you have every received, so it doesn’t matter if you spend it!

Place yourself in the Top 10 Summoners on the Valor Leaderboard, and earn a 5-Star Thor (Ragnarok) after the event ends. The #1 Summoner will earn a bonus 5-Star Thor (Ragnarok)!

1st - 2x 5-Star Thor (Ragnarok)
2nd-10th - 1x 5-Star Thor (Ragnarok)
11 - 1,000 - 1x 4-Star Thor (Ragnarok)
1,001 - 10,000 - 1x 3-Star Thor (Ragnarok)
Top 10,000 (all) - "Champion of Valhalla" Rare Title

Prizes will be awarded within two weeks of the event ending - as we need to review winners.

Do note, Summoners, we will be keeping a close eye on Valor and the ways and means Summoners are earning it. Use of exploits or nefarious means to earn more Valor than is normally possible, or more than one Test of Valor every 6 hours will be looked on unfavorably by the Grandmaster. Possible actions include loss of Valor, removal from the Valor Leaderboard or worse. Let’s not go that route!

What is a Vanquishing Blow?

Vanquishing Blow Solo Events are a brand new event in the Contest that award points for finishing off your Opponent in a specific way! A Vanquishing Blow is the final type of damage dealt that reduces your opponent to zero health.

For example, there may be an event for “Medium Hit”, where the killing blow must be a Medium Attack. There could be an event for “Special 2”, where the killing blow must be from a Special 2 attack. There could also be one for “Using Bleed”, where the opponent KO must come from Bleed damage. This doesn’t mean hit them while they’re bleeding, it means that the bleed must be the one to do it.

Vanquishing Blow Solo Events will be available November 1st, 5PM PDT until December 5th, 4PM PST. As with all 24 hour Solo Events there is a short downtime between each event - so check your Solo Events list to check out all the details!

Bounty Missions and Tests of Valor!

Bounty Missions are brand new feature that you may see come back around the Contest in the future. It’s a pretty big feature, so we’re adding a new post about it right here!

Prepare yourself Summoners! The Champions of Valhalla event runs from November 1st until December 6th and you’ll need to be on the latest version of Marvel Contest of Champions to earn your Valor!

4 energy per move on master...really @Kabam Miike I mean really! Which genius came up with that? Can't even finish it from a full 70. Fail

That's for a Test of Valor. A Test of Valor only has 4 steps in it for a total of 16 Energy. There is no point AT ALL to doing more than one run of a Test of Valor.

Nvm was looking at wrong place lol

So why have multiple paths? Just do single path like boss rush? What you've just described is even more stupid than having no rewards lol

Because it is fun and you have the choice to choose your opponents based on your current game skill and the team that you bring in. If it is only one single path like Boss Rush challenge, there will be too much unnecessary complains that KABAM doesn't want to focus on for too much.

In conclusion:
1. Test of Valor will be opened for 6 hours for each time it is found.
2. It has 4 difficulties and each difficulties has several paths for you to choose.
3. You will ONLY get valor and crystal shards for ONLY ONE RUN/ONE path of your choice. If you keep doing other paths in the same difficulty, you will only get same ISO.
4. You can do other difficulties as well for a total of 40 energy.

REMEMBER:
You only need to do one path for each difficulties and you will get all the rewards for each single run for that particular difficulties. There is no point in doing others path of the same difficulty in the hope of getting more valor and shards because you WILL NOT GET THEM.

Will the rewards for the valor leaderboards be player based or alliance based, because on the leaderboards it shows valor ratigs for alliances but you can see where you place as a player

On the bottom of your Homescreen, hit the Leaderboard button (the little Trophy Icon next to the Event List) and select Lifetime Valor from the dropdown Leaderboard selection menu, and then you can see how you stack up against your Friends, Alliance Mates, or the World!

I have gone through heroic completely as has a couple other members of my alliance but we still haven’t gotten a test of valor any reason why?

Qwerty

How do the tests of valor start. There are several in my alliance that have finished heroic quest line and we still have not had one start

Test of Valor Event: A friend of mine who is in another alliance just opened a Test of Valor Event for accomplishing the same thing I did. They earned 150,000 Points for their 1st completion of Heroic. Why did the Test of Valor Event not open for me but it did for him?

There is no guarantee that any amount of Valor will DEFINITELY open a Test of Valor. It is always a chance, but that chance is greater with a greater amount of Valor earned.

In another words players won't know how much to hit and we just have to keep getting energy refill from kabam to start one cuz if it doesnt appear means we doesnt hit enough...so some alliance might just need to complete 1 quest event to start it while some might take 10 quest event to start it? and the logic is same like the crystal there's a chance but doesnt guarantee u can start it even u spend tons of units to refill ur energy???

Really! With 6 stars comming up, why on Earth or Sakaar do I need 3 star ****? Seriously!?!???

Are you going to get rank 1?

Riegel

@Kabam Miike not sure if its been asked/answered yet, but if the vanquishing blow is for medium hits does it count if you kill them with a blocked medium hit?

Maybe I'm missing something... How can people already have over 1.5ML Valor after 12 hrs?

FlashAvenger97

Found a reward bug in heroic chapter 1 proving grounds. It offers the unit rewards for the chapter before it instead of an increase. Received 5 units instead of 10 for completion.

All 4 of the event quests give you a total of 2M valor. It's likely they did most of them already. It's feasible they have completed most of them with enough energy refills considering heroic and master can be completed in ~4 hours for legends runs.

Sorry. Just a question.

It states in the description that you'll be penalized if you enter more than one bounty/Test of Valor every 6 hours. Will there be a timer to let us know when the 6 hours is up? Or will we be locked out being able to enter the bounty?

The reason I'm asking is because there might be back-to-back bounties that will overlap into the 6 hour window, despite bounties being open for 6 hours. Eg. Bounty A opens at 1200. I enter Bounty A and clear it at 1600. At 1800, when Bounty A closes, Bounty B opens and I clear it immediately (at 1800). This will result in me clearing 2 bounties within a 6 hour window, causing me to be penalized.

Thanks in advance.

It's not based on a 6 hour window of your start time, it's based on a 6 hour window of the start time of the Bounty Mission itself, so if you completed 2 before 1800, then that's a problem. If you completed one at 1600 (but it started at 1200) and another at 1800, that's totally fine.

Hopefully that makes sense? Let me know if anything is unclear.

I find this answer confusing. I believe the OP just wants to know if the game will have a failsafe built in to not allow them to do more than 1 during the 6 hour window. I am assuming so since only one can be active and they last 6 hours. However, what if someone changes alliances during that 6 hour window, will the game allow them to complete another mission during the same window?

Its time 16:00 or 4:00PM

@Kabam Miike for the server maintain issu we can't fulfil test of valor. I announced that event.. And miss target of requirements. Why we suffered for kabam maintenance. We need compensation.

Spawnology

Why, why, why always these problems with this game ...
I play it for more than 1,5 year but in the last 4-5 mounths it's just getting worse and worse ...
So, so sad about ...
I start to feel it's just a waste of time (and money)
You should make it playable ASAP ...

- can't log in
- not blockin (even if I push it)
- exits after a fight (1 of 10 at least)
- not shooting the special attack just waste the power
- laggggggg sooooo many times
- Alliance ranked to the wrong class

And it's just the last 2 mounths ...

Please, please make it playable again ... (and send me an awekening gem for my 4 star Blade if it's possible as a compensation

)

Will we be able to do anything with the souls we collected from the last event or are they just going to sit in inventory taking up space?

Hi,

How do kabam calculate the time attack were the server under maintenance? Seriously.. I'm in the midst of working on master quest and I spend couple hundred or unit on energy. I hope it should be fair to everyone who working on that time. Thanks.
