Down Sides of this month's Side quest, plus some upsides.

I really am not liking the way this month's side quest is structured...is lame and boring no creativity at all.

Downsides(some)

1.You are forcing players to play areana , some of us do not like it.
2.You are asking to play with 2 or 3 stars , some new age players have never ranked those champs because of easy access to 4 and 5*
3.You are asking players to play repeatative champs or fight repetative champs which is worse than normal areana.
4.Structure around rewards is confusing.
5.Fininsing the fight in certain way(lights,heavy etc.) with certain class is lazy and lacks creativity.
6.No side quest to play which was fun part.

Upside.
1 last few quest have been long format repeative as well.
2.Battlechips thus some units hopefully.
3.Practive perfect parries since patch seems to be never forthcoming.
4.Energy Can be used else where then side quest.
5.No tradeoff between shards and rankup material , we can chose.

Please add more to this, as part of community feedback.

PS- Increase that 15000 cap on glory , what up with sending this many glory to us.

I would have like this month side event more if they don't put limit on how many 6 star shards you can get using the spider chips

I don’t see why they can’t temporarily change the amounts of glory purchases or reset it daily during this wonderful time

The arenas are cool to run plus taking a break from those side quests is a welcome break.

The "finish fights using an ..... attack" is one of the worst things that they've introduced in the game

Hello @Fabwizi. Thank you for your constructive feedback. This is being reviewed.

Thanks for paying attention!

I personally liked something like doing gauntlet where the rewards got better and enemies got tougher as it went along. Changing of enemies is very nice thing too and keeps it from being repetitive,

the rng rewards like when jabari panther and silver centurion SUCKED so let’s stay away from stuff like that. Idk anyone who liked jubilees arcade.

Definitly keep the influx of six star shard rewards coming with side events though. It’s really the best place to earn them and six stars are definitly becoming more prevalent now.

Thanks for listening to our opinions!

This month costs more energy for me personally.
Side quests usually don’t cost energy, but the objectives are tied to the monthly quests where I normally only explore uncollected and cavalier.
Now I’m partially exploring difficulties I have no interest in, just to get the daily bugle currencies.

A more user friendly chart would’ve been nice instead of having to the scroll thru 30+ objectives to see what we have or have not completed yet.

I do not like this event at all. Last month was tragic, I couldn't believe this month is worse. The arena is tedious and sucks all the energy out of me. The objective list is chaotic, I have difficulty checking which one I completed and which not. I hate the kind of objectives that require defeating opponents with a certain attack or damage type. It's tedious and only makes sure completing is unnecessarily agonizing. The rewards are good, which is the only motivation I have. I can only give it a 3/10. Straight F.

4.Energy Can be used else where then side quest.

On the contrary, side quests usually costs 0 energy, but now I need to spend energy to do lower difficulties in eq.

Overall this structure is very bad for someone like me
1. I dislike arena and never grind it.
2. I only explore Cavalier Difficulty, I don 't even bother completing lower difficulties.
3. I usually save up entries to side quests and do them together over 2-3 days at the end of the month, which isn't possible now due to the 3 day solo event.

So I've pretty much accepted that I won't be getting any significant rewards this month.

I wonder if the Side Event this month, and the way it’s being described as lazy, is due to other more important problems being focused on? I hope so.

As for the event, I play arenas quite a lot so it’s not an issue for me. The long list of objectives I found super easy once I found an easy 1 energy fight to complete them all. And as for the rewards, I find it much better personally to have a shop scenario like this where we can spend on things we actually need most, rather than winning a small amount of important items and a bounty full of useless items for the overflow.

Am pretty sure there is a post on this already, here

He had a lot of sugar this morning so you gotta let him run this out til he crashes..

There is no side quest this month tho....?

there technically is .. it's just hidden behind some really grindy objectives .. (ie defeat punisher 2099 with vision ... 20 times!?! I could understand maybe 5 .. "Maybe" 10 ... but 20 ? added to the fact, another 20 for G2099 ? total : 40!?!? Seriously??)
Then add to the class based ones:
10x each class .. that's another 60 ... and there isn't even that many spider-verse/sinister 6 targets in the EQ ... (which if there was ... this wouldn't be nearly as bad).

but yeah ... a good 100 fights ... that you can't knock out via the EQ ... = a disguised side quest ... that you have to find on your own .. (because for some dumb reason, you can't even search for a target champ to duel ... you can only search for summoners ... *sigh* )

There is no side quest this month tho....?

Not to mention that in order to get max tickets, you need to complete every difficulty of EQ at least once, and at least twice more each for spiderman 2099 and peni parker for normal to master difficulty i would normally never touch otherwise, so in that sense, the energy i would have spent doing a side quest is wasted on doing completing normal to master difficulty

No one is forcing the players do to anything. You’re not forced to fight arena or repetitive defenders, etc. You can choose to forfeit the bugle bucks if you don’t like fighting in the format set forth for the rewards.

I agree, it’s a grind, it’s not a forced function that doesn’t allow you to proceed to other content if you choose not to do it.

I have stopped doing monthly event quests completely, going on four months now, as I read forum post Line chats and alliance chats I am not missing anything, I feel so much more free from the bs of this money trap, free to play my ass, haha. And thank you for the pause in AW, only thing I get on for now is AQ, a win for quality of life, thank u Kabam
