[MERGED] Parry Issue Fix

I think I’ve identified the issue with Parry. It seems it was a delayed reaction with the Ebony Maw buff, where he’s still subpar. I think another buff would fix the issue 🤓

I think it's time we stop calling it a "hot fix" and go with either "slow fix" or "no fix" instead.
I have never been closer to quiting this game before. Frustration at it's finest!

So when you go to a restaurant and your server says to you, don't touch this plate it's hot. Do you then continue to touch it, burning your hands and then ask for $1600 because you didn't heed the warning of the server?

Kabam has said to try and refrain from doing content that might make you use more resources than normal. Plus you said you 1 shot it before admitting you aren't having that much of an issue. Y'all are ridiculous.

I agree

Maybe one day kabam will finally answer us

I mean that’s fine and everything but how do you square it vs keeping SOP running? Timed content with the best rewards we’ve ever seen most likely….but we are being asked to refrain from doing content. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Why push content and expect the same amount of compensation? If someone did abyss with the parry dex bugs, would they just get their units back? I agree this compensation is pretty bland and we should probably get those 10 l2 revives like a previous compensation but 1600 units is a bit of a stretch.

Said it myself on week one, it's never enough, the lost gold, BCs, completion crystals, t4cc crystals, t5b, t4b, t2a from milestone and rank rewards that were losing out on due to incomplete maps, lack of player motivation and dropping to a lower tier to compensate!

That's now 5 AQ cycles, the resources hemorrhaged due to this bug is deep and they sit in silence throwing a pathetic amount of crystals and 3k glory in our mail box and we've to suck it up and get on with it!

You get unlimited attempts for a week in SOP. Big difference from pushing content like abyss, act 6/7, exploration for a variant. If anything, SOP helps you attune to this new parry timing. Anything you push is on you.

Hoitado

Thanks for the Glory and all but I need some Regular Questing Compensation.

Demonzfyre

You have 7 days, unlimited attempts and zero energy.

Berjibs

I understand that but how do you reconcile with people who missed out on the thronebreaker objectives due to not being able to run the content you mention?

I’ve fallen victim to such circumstance having farmed for abyss 1st clear for a couple of weeks. I’d timed it to unlock the TB objectives via the abyss T5cc, having completed act 6 in the weeks previous, when the bug then hit. Those farmed revives and pots have now expired and catalysts stashed in overflow to r3 a champ are due to start expiring in a day or two. I’d basically got together 100 revives in stash and units FTP which would be comfortable but no way I’m risking going in now and not finishing up.

I don’t particularly care as would be my third TB account. It’s just a bit of fun, I can forgo the rewards, but there will be people in similar position on main or sole accounts just left in limbo for whom it matters much more…

Also parry timing for some is the least problematic part of the bug. Erratic dex timing and impossible to counter recovery times are far more punishing and difficult to deal with.

They went the entire EQ last month with the bug in place.

How does one refrain from doing that if you want to get it done?

I refrained from SoP the week after the extension because I assumed it would continue to be extended on account of the bug not being fixed. That didn’t work out for me.

We are able to restrain from some content, but not all of it.

I don’t usually spend any units on EQ except for maybe on energy refills, and I have, due to the bug. Clearly some unit compensation is warranted.

I do understand however that is supposed to be coming with the long awaited fix.

ullabritta

What's the point of making a game if we can't play it properly? dude these bugs are not recent I've played this game for 3 years and every damn time there is a new bug with new updates. there are so many more issues rather than the parry and dex but kabam has'nt addressed any of those cause most people aren't affected.

Warlockjr

I mean I’m ok with units for later or energy refills

DeadPooop

Lol how did u come up.with the 1600 number?

xNig

Will be interesting if Kabam announced that hotfix has been in place a week ago 😂

DevilmayCry3

My AQ health potion is overflowing in stash. But they are keep giving it. If they change this into normal health potions i will be happy.

ChaosMax1012

That has nothing to do with being able to complete summer of pain. I hear ya when it sucks you can’t push for those TB objectives and kabam should definitely compensate on that but your previous point is the bug is refraining us from being able to complete the summer of pain fights. Obviously not fair for those that wanted to push for those TB objectives but thats just how it goes. Regardless many players will end up TB by the end of this event.

strongmandible

7 days, an already finite window in which the majority of players have a much smaller window of MCOC playtime. The concern is fair, that there are people who normally would have had enough time to complete content, and will now not be able to complete the same content due to the extra time required from bugged attempts, unless they spend on revives and potions. Unlimited attempts and zero energy add no benefit to any of these issues because, as you pointed out, 7 days.

Searmenis

We ask for normal revives/potions, they give us AQ ones. Maybe we should ask for incursions' revives just to see what we'll get in their place.

ChaosMax1012

Kabam gave us extra time previous weeks when the bug was out of control. Calmed down a bit this week and the AI makes it so you wouldn’t want nor need to block anyway. Learn the pattern, get the fight down. Nobody is gonna do it in their first few tries

Demonzfyre

Kabam is taking all that into consideration for the compensation. They understand telling you to ease up on content will result in missing out on rewards. I'm willing to bet we'll see a substantial comp package. Even bigger than last July.

Demonzfyre

How can you say they haven't addressed any of them when they've acknowledged it and are currently working on it? Let me guess, you think it should have been fixed a long time ago right? I also assume you do not have a background in mobile gaming development.

TheBoogyMan

Sounds like a good package is coming once the bug is fixed. My anticipation is increasing now...lol

Demonzfyre

What? How doesn't having unlimited attempts not benefit you? Besides, you don't want to or can't parry Emma Frost anyway.

Searmenis

Exactly. We listen to Kabam, we don't do difficult stuff like trying to get uncollected, cavalier, TB etc, but the monthly EQ has a time limit. If we waited for the "$#@^%$ fix" (that's a better name btw) we wouldn't completed July's EQ, and we wouldn't get its rewards. Was Kabam willing to give an extra compensation, the same amount of July's EQ rewards? I don't think so.

Ercarret

I think the "just don't do hard content like Kabam said" argument was valid when they said it.

Which was weeks ago.

However, if you're at the endgame, there's really only hard content to do. Especially since there's no side quest to keep you busy this month. Holding off from it is a viable idea for a while but eventually the two options you're left with are to either push through that harder content regardless or just step away from the game for not-even-Kabam knows how long.

I have a feeling that the option both players and Kabam would be most happy with, is that which involves people not leaving the game entirely for the unforeseeable future. That in turn would require compensation for the resources lost to the bug. I think it's perfectly fine to ask for that at this time.

I don't personally care about compensation (beyond keeping up with the small packages we've received thus far) until the bug is fixed - then I don't even know what'll be enough - but I absolutely understand those who want/need it. I've played like **** this last month which seems to be a mild result of the bug (it hasn't stopped me from playing, just from playing well), but there seem to be people who are suffering way more than I am and therefore have a much harder time completing the necessary content. I really sympathize with them.

Theshark1

Then you’d get aw ones

Stellar

But they advise us to exercise caution in our choice of content… but the SOP is still week based and if you don’t do it now, it’s over !
The SOP cost you lots of revives ? Kabam give you AQ potions…
Kabam’s logic 🤣
