ANNOUNCING EVENT QUEST: HOTEL M.O.D.O.K

WISH YOU WERE HERE
With The Collector deposed, The Grandmaster has had to do some housekeeping. One note on the to-do list is what should be done about the self-proclaimed genius M.O.D.O.K and his experiments? According to The Grandmaster, the easiest solution would be to give him his own small part of The Battlerealm to do as he pleases. So that’s exactly what he’s done!

Come take a trip to M.O.D.O.K’s slice of The Battlerealm where relaxation and experimentation are aplenty. Scientific hybrids with a vacation getaway theme, what could be more relaxing?

STUDY BUDDIES
M.O.D.O.K has been studying his combatants in the contest for a while, and after much research M.O.D.O.K is sure that his genius intellect will be more than enough to handle any foes who cross his path. M.O.D.O.K’s studies have not finished however, as he continues to analyze and study his opponents for the competitive edge. His force field also allows him to Auto-Block incoming attacks.

Taskmaster has entered The Contest! With a knack for picking up new skills on the fly, Taskmaster is second to none at analyzing opponents in the heat of combat. During a fight, Taskmaster can match his Opponent’s last Attack for Direct Damage, as well as reduce the duration of debuffs.

ANNOUNCING NEW DIFFICULTY: UNCOLLECTED DIFFICULTY
A new difficulty has been added to the monthly Event Quests! Summoners who have become Uncollected by completing Act 5 Chapter 2 and are Level 40 will find a new step in difficulty available to them. Called simply UNCOLLECTED, this difficulty comes with new rewards and challenges, and will be available in the monthly Event Quests going forward.

Each map features a path which brings back some buffs from Act 5 such as Buffet and Bane. But once these paths are completed and the quest is mastered, a new set of rewards are yours for the taking. Including a new exclusive “Unchallenged” title, only available during the first release of the new difficulty.

For completing and mastering all of the Uncollected quests, you earn:

4020x 4-Star Crystal Shards
7500x 5-Star Crystal Shards
2500x 6-Star Crystal Shards
12000x Tier 2 Alpha Catalyst Fragment
10x 5-Star Signature Stone Crystal
9000x Tier 5 Generic Catalyst Shard
1x Tier 4 Class Catalyst Crystal
1x Unchallenged Title

OTHER DIFFICULTY CHANGES
A few changes have come to some other difficulties as well, Beginner difficulty has been made easier for new players as well as paths have been reduced on some maps to accelerate the rate at which they master quests.

Master difficulty has had its difficulty slightly reduced as well, PI ranges are now lower in the second half of the Event Quests to allow for a smoother difficulty curve.

Q&A

How long does this quest run for?
This quest will be starting on the 6th of December at ~10:00AM PST and will run until January 3rd at 10:00AM PST. Those attempting Legends runs will have until December 20th to 100% explore both Heroic and Master difficulties.

You must update to the new 16.1 Release to be able to see and participate in this quest.

Does this mean that you're changing how the Legends Program works?
Not right now! We may make an adjustment in the future, but don't have any plans for this at the moment

I can’t see some of the rewards under “View Rewards” Are they missing?
No, they’re there! Currently we can’t fit all the rewards in the preview. So on some difficulties a few of the rewards won’t be visible when you preview the quest. You will still get them however.

How do I get the Legends title associated with Master Difficulty?
The Legends title and rewards will be given to the 100 players who 100% explore HEROIC AND MASTER difficulties in Hotel M.O.D.O.K the fastest. Just like recent Event Quests, this quest will take advantage of the Time Attack system we’ve put in place for our Monthly Quest Legends Program. This means that the players that completely explore Heroic and Master difficulty the fastest within the first 2 weeks of the event being live will win the title. More information on that can be found here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/27/time-attack-legends-program
In addition to this distinction, these first 100 will receive the following rewards:

#1-5 - 3x Tier 4 Class Catalyst Crystal
#6-100 - 1x Tier 4 Class Catalyst Crystal

Just impatient people who can’t manage their resources properly and want every single champ they get upgraded without thinking.

This. The constant complaining about lack of t1a because folk cant rank their 5* spidergwen and collosus to r3 is becoming annoying.

This is great! Honestly, there are already plenty of T1a for summoners to rank up their more useful 5* champs. If they want to go ahead and rank up their 20 5* champs all to R3, then they have to bear the grind of having to get 200 T1 alphas. This grind is pretty much as painful as trying to rank all your 3* to max (T3cc) or all your 4* to R4 (T4Bs), but if you really want to completely expand your roster like that, you really need to know it is going to take lots of dedication and time to do so.

Not to mention, there is no need to R2 or R3 all your 5* champs. It really isn't a necessity unless you absolutely want to be a completionist. Ranking up more 5* to R2 or R3 simply means more arena points in a shorter amount of time, so instead of spending 2 days to get 4m in the featured arena, you maybe only need to spend a day. Nonetheless, it just serves that one incentive, not very appealing imo. I'd rather focus on ranking my best 5* to R3 and R4, given that it serves a better purpose like getting you through end-game content while also giving you more points in arena.

I don’t understand what’s their rush tbh.

I believe it's somewhat the result of learning the difference in CR with 6*s, however if that's the case, it's really not that significant when it boils down to Damage. We saw that with the Boss Rush.

Honestly I didn’t feel any difference when fighting opponents of higher CR. Is there supposed to be one? Lol

Yes. There is one variation compared to the previous increase. R4 5* is equal to an R1 6*. Rather than a 4* R5 equaling a 6* R1. Completely makes sense, but some saw that as making 4*s obsolete, when it's only a small difference.

xNig

Didn’t feel any difference. Could parry and hit them as per normal. Even if I missed, with the previous 12.0 experience, it’s easy to recover from.

The difference becomes facing them against user masteries and adrenaline

From now on, as per the announcement.

Please remove all 5* shards from all levels of event quest rewards and replace with 4 t1 alphas for all the cry babies

Does that means the tittle will only be obtainable for the first week or what?

They are saying it's only available for this very first Uncollected Map.

Oh I see that means once I do it the next event won't have it right?

No, it won’t be there next event at all. Doesn’t matter if you do this one or not. If you do it you get the tittle, if you don’t do it this month, you won’t get it and won’t have a future chance to get it.

They wouldn't logically include T1As with that level of content either way, not in my opinion.

Pawelpwg

Quick question, if i want to do a legend run, can do the uncollected level first and then go back to heroic and master, or the timer will start with uncollected? @kabanMike

Why not? I know you don’t believe there is an alpha shortage, so I won’t bring that up, but can we take a moment and talk about the increase in t4b and t4c’s over the last few months?

Because they where barely anywhere for a long time. I had to work my ass of to get some shards and now we get fully formed catalysts just by logging in. AQ rewards have been redone in a way that makes the t4b and t4c more available, act 5 has them, special events have been a lot more frequent and now there is a new monthly increase.

And then I didn’t even mention the 5* shards yet. I’m getting them faster then I make milk (remember, 4 month old son, so I make lots of milk. He takes away a lot of my playing time and still I accumilate 5* champs way faster then when I was pregnant). Now we get even more shards. If you’re stocked up on gold, which I know not everybody is, but a lot are, then the only thing that keeps people from ranking anything is t4a. And with act 5 giving gold and the soon to return gold quest, people that lack it right now will be good soon.

And don’t even start about glory, it replaced, didn’t increase or decrease, it replaced the alpha and revives/heals. However glory did not replace map 3 crystals as you keep claiming, map 5 crystals replaced map 3 crystals, making once again the t4b and t4c more available, but not the t4a.

The people doing the uncollected difficulty are the same people that are currently bothered by these unbalanced rewards. The 5* champs need a high amount of ta1 but still everything else keeps increasing (5* shards, t4b, t4c, t2a, t5b, gold) but the t1a haven’t increased in ages.

So please tell me how, in your opinion, rewarding players that need t1a with t1a would be illogical. Is it just because the content will be hard and should thus not reward easy to get basic material? Because that would make a lot of sense if the t1a had made a similair progression as the t4b and t4c’s, but the alpha’s didn’t.

Legend starts when you enter heroic just like always. Uncollected level has nothing to do with it

That's arbitrary. Why not 4000?

Shamlyn27

I prefer to ask to be sure, not the first one as it works as intended;) they are releasing this for the first time, so bugs more than welcome

@Kabam Miike @Kabam Wolf @Kabam Vydious are you able to let us know the PI ranges for uncollected difficulty?

Unlikely they will release it now, since the event quest is going to come in about 24 hours from this time of the comment.

Don't worry, I know you're excited, I've seen your posts. I'm also excited, pretty anxious to try this out too. :P

Do you have to be Uncollected prior to Dec 6 or if at any time during the event you become Uncollected does the new difficulty become available?

It's unlocked as soon as you become Uncollected, whenever that happens to be.
