Do better
We’ve heard from many of you that the Summ(on)er Camp and Resort events are a little more stressful than an average event because missing a single day could lead to missing out on valuable rewards.
To remedy this situation and give everybody a little more leeway, we’re going to try and create some “grace days” for everybody. Starting this Wednesday, July 14 @ 10 am PDT, we’ll be adding a Summ(on)er Event Booster in the Store for the price of 1x Gold, with a purchase limit of one.
Purchasing this bundle will instantly grant 7 days’ worth of Milestone progress for both the Summ(on)er Camp and Summ(on)er Resort Solo Events. This should effectively give all Summoners a 7-Day Grace Period, and cover any days or objectives that may have already been missed.
Thank you all for your feedback on this matter, and we hope that this will help alleviate the stress related to this event.
Within the Camp event (free) and the Resort event (paid) there are fidget-spinner looking tokens you can earn at different milestones. Those tokens are what you spend in the store. Buying either of the Resort passes does not grant you all of the tokens immediately. The passes only *unlock* the Resort event and allow you to collect the milestone rewards in that event.
Since people still seem to be confused about the mechanics of the event, I'll summarize again:
First: Every Day complete the Summer Event objective by basically doing ten fights. AND COLLECT IT. You must complete the objective and collect it before you will get the next one. You get one of these every day. Do this every day for the 98 days of the event.
Second: collecting the objective will collect a point scored towards the Milestones in the Camp event and the Resort event if you have purchased one of the Resort Pass packages. Collect these whenever you want: it doesn't have the same MUST COLLECT DAILY issue that the Summer Event objectives have. Each milestone in the event contains rewards. *Some* of those rewards are tokens you can spend in the Canteen store.
Third: When you get tokens, you can spend them in the Summer Canteen store. There are 14 tokens in the Camp (free) event and 14 additional tokens in the Resort (paid) event. Free players can thus get 14 items in the store, paid players can get (all) 28.
IF you are high enough progress, the simple way to use the store is: buy one of everything. Free players will be able to buy the first fourteen items, paid players will be able to buy all twenty eight.
IF an item is progress locked and you can't buy it, then to keep moving forward in the store you need to buy another one of an earlier item with the same token type. You could also do this if you actually *want* more of one item and don't want another item.
The mental model I've been using to explain the event goes like this:
Part One: Show up every day, play the game, collect your daily reward. This is like a calendar, except you have to play the game instead of just log in, and you have to deliberately collect the reward instead of it being handed to you automatically.
Part Two: Collect stamps from the daily rewards. When you get a stamp, stamp the appropriate spot in your Summer Canteen reward card. I know it looks like a store, but its a rewards card, trust me. Every time you stamp a reward, you collect that reward. You must stamp in order, you cannot skip ahead. If an item is locked and you are not allowed to stamp it, the game will let you stamp an earlier item twice in order to move forward on your rewards card, so lower progress players don't get stuck with stamps they can't use.
That's basically it.
This is zero compensation and feels like we now have a devalued pass which we wouldn't even have bought if it weren't for the grace days. 700 shards that everyone now gets. mean nothing for 5$ so don't act like that's some sort of compensation.
Spending money on this appreciation is beginning to feel like bait & switch for the people who bought the pass plus.
It means that everyone with a pass will get 700 minimum and the people who bought the pass plus will get 1400. Anyone else who buys the weekly $5 boosters which will be going on sale after this 1 gold version, will get an additional 700 per week they buy it, to a maximum of 4900 shards if bought every week.
The same with the Pass Plus, but you'll finish the milestones 2 weeks early and gain 14 days of new daily objectives of 100 shards, for a total of 1400.
