    Do you get to participate in gifting if you cross level 40 during the event?
  • IcyCoolDudeDoodleIcyCoolDudeDoodle Member Posts: 587 ★★
    Are we getting any gifts e.g. Thronebreaker Summoner gets 6* Nexus or something. If so, I hope there are some 5* Shards for proven (or conquerer and Uncollected if I reach)

    Why punish players for being under lvl 40? Shouldn't Christmas and gifting be for all? I think you could be a little less like scrooge at Christmas kabam. I know your not trying to be rude and inconsiderate but I also know that's unfortunately how you come across here. Atleast let lvl 20+ or 25+ join in gifting. I think if your really concerned about fairness you don't exclude people. Consider this if you increase player rewards and decrease the alliance rewards you actually encourage people to be more giving to each other even outside our alliances you know like a polite giving community, kabam the alliance rewards talk. But don't kabam and exclude so many people that's the definition of discrimination guy's.

    Anyone else gonna talk about how bad these rewards are for the month of December? Last year they gave us the yearly champs cav crystals ..... And 100% the "gift" will be something of no significant value.

    Hey All,

    Clarification for Alliance Gifting Event is here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/289243/alliance-gifting-event-14-day-alliance-membership-requirement-clarification/

    If you don't want to click the link, here's the content:

    We’ve seen a lot of questions about the 14 Day Alliance Membership requirement for the Alliance Gifting event. This is especially important for Summoners who are moving Alliances after the end of the Alliance War Season.

    Summoners that join a new Alliance will be able to earn points and rewards for Gifting after they have been in the Alliance for 14 Days.

    For example, that means that if you join an Alliance 1 day before the Alliance Gifting Event begins, you will not be able to earn Points or Rewards until the very last day of the Event. Inversely, if you join a new Alliance 13 days before the Alliance Gifting event begins, you will be able to earn points and rewards 1 day after the event has started.

    To have an uninterrupted Gifting experience, you should be in an Alliance that you intend to stay in before December 6th.

    If you are still here can you answer a quick question about the upcoming shard arenas? I know 6* is restricted to using 1 and 2* champs but what are the champs we can use in the 5* shard arena?
    @Kabam Miike can you respond to this please so I can plan some ranking of lower champs if needed please?

    So you think that not being in the lower mid level of a game's gifting event, which I limited to stop exploitation, counts as literal discrimination? OK, yeesh

    Why did they make the cutoff for moving alliance before war season ends. That makes no sense @Kabam Miike

    Do i need level 40 to acces special objectives?
  • TyEdgeTyEdge Member Posts: 3,108 ★★★★★
    Great job on the sidequest this month. Just comparing to the last two months, I want to point out these specific improvements:

    1) Full squad of champs. This is important when the game is flaky, because one missed input can cause a death. If you’re only carrying two real champs, things spiral fast.

    2) PIs that correspond to the difficulty level in monthly EQ. No 50,000 PI champs with 400k HP. Kabam talked about “reducing mental load” in the 2020 roadmap, and last month’s sidequest and this month’s are a prime contrast in that respect.

    3) Reasonable amount of content. It isn’t grindy or time intensive, which is especially appreciated at the holidays. It’s not daily entries that get repetitive over 35 days, or where summoners miss out on big rewards if they only do 28/35.

    4) a decent spread of rewards for the effort used…a little bit of everything, and no single resource that dominates the payout.

    And unrelated to all that, but I was very happy with Cyber Weekend. I’ve been very critical lately, but the flexibility offered in those deals led to me happily using more units than I thought I could.

    Level 40 to participate in the gift event event plus complete act 4?????
    That is absurd! Change the rule of the game as they well understand, disregarding the player

    i believe the 6th of december is there so if you moved, you would not need to wait few days to start gifting. So you can still move, just you will be allowed to gift later in the month

    You might try a dictionary. Yes that is discrimination. Your opinion does not count greater than facts.
    My point was that it's just a game dude, that's it

    Let’s be honest if your newer and have not completed act 4/ lvl 40 then your units could be much better spent elsewhere. I don’t think the requirements are unreasonable at all. If I were to suggest an alternative, perhaps only the ggc should be locked with those requirements but let new players gift the other stuff. This all came about though over a ton of petty complaints and a dumb video. 2-3k units on an alt account would no way effect the competitive edge lol. You earn points by gifting not receiving gifts. While I could see an alliance full of alts messing up alliance ranked a tad, solo would hardly be effected. 2-3k units would hardly get any decent ranked rewards. People just wanted to complain cause they didn’t want to grind or rather because they’re bored with nothing better to do than complain.

    That said I have saved a good stash and can’t wait for the event.
  • TyEdgeTyEdge Member Posts: 3,108 ★★★★★
    Except it was a repeatable 2000 units, so people with enough time on their hands could have added another 0 and made it 20,000 units. When you’re talking about 6-star sig stones and t5cc, it can throw things out of whack.

    I agree it's just a game so why should kabam discriminate smaller accounts at Christmas. Take rank rewards away if it is that big of a deal but don't discriminate against people over progression. Games should be about having fun, isn't that why we started playing? There are alot of people who have legit accounts but are young or just a casual player that this affects. What's wrong with treating everyone the same? If the real issue is the rank rewards then take that away but don't discriminate and act like your trying to do the right thing.

    This isn't discrimination. It's requirements to ensure the Event is as fair as possible. Discrimination involves an intentional exclusion towards a targeted demographic. It's not as if they said, "Let's get those new Accounts.".
