6* Dual Type Crystal's!!!

They're here!!!

Comments

They shouldn’t cost more because the odds for targeting champions isn’t different. Probably need some @DNA3000 math on this but I would bet money that the odds to pull god-tier champions from the basic to the duel crystals won’t change much.

This is a bad response miike. but, you answered an that is better than no answer! However, you are implying that every champ in the dual class crystal pulls are all top of food chain. If that is the case is basic iron man there? Both versions of cyclops? Drax? Moonknight? Groot?

if you removed some of the duds then this is definitely a justifiable reason. However, you didn't an as discussed time an time again the RNG does not guarantee a top of the food chain champ, heck most of the time its not, an it might not even be the champ that you want to use if were a top of chain champ (for instance, if i got Ghost, i would never use her...yes i know, insane!).

At first i looked past the 2,500 extra, but the reason behind it is poor.

Top of the food chain? Are these FEATURED dual crystals? Did I miss something?

OGAvenger

Yes it does

By the way, ladies and gentleman may I present to you the reward for 90 days of doing daily missions:

12500 6* shards

If you compare them to featured crystals, if said crystal has strong champion pool, it will be miles better than these new crystals.
I don't think many players will accept +25% price to have tiny advantage in drawing from 2 classes.

I understand the thought that occurred when you released 5 star duals and that you think you shouldn’t have made them the same. And maybe you’re right. But I personally don’t believe the team is correct in thinking they should cost more. As others have pointed out, the chance of pulling a god tier or trash champ remains roughly the same. Yes some classes are better than others, but are generally equal. You just reduce the pool. But also, when deciding to release these today, Kabam had to have considered the negative press going on right now, and predict how the player base would receive this increase in shard price. If you hadn’t released these today, nobody would be the wiser that it was planned to release them today. Maybe Kabam should have waited longer.

Champion acquisition is hard enough as is, we don’t need the added cost just to get a fairer chance at getting a specific champs.

The precedent set is the reason for the comments here. With everything that has happened in the past with the promise of wish Crystal's that were not released and the recent negative reaction to 8.1 delay and battlegrounds, doing the Crystal's for 10k would have gotten you some good will.

Another disappointment.
Nothings going on the right track.

I would ask that you ask yourselves that question... What makes the Dual Class more valuable than a Basic, and why SHOULDN'T it be more?

I get the precedent set by the 5-Star and 4-Star crystals, but it was exactly that precedent that kept us from launching these earlier. We know players wanted them; we weren't ready to make more specific 6-Stars available for that same cost, but also knew that when we added them for 5-Stars, we set that precedent. It was either break the precedent or keep waiting.

For complete transparency, we learned pretty quickly after the release of the 5-Star Dual that we shouldn't have made them the same price, but didn't want to change them after the fact. We did the same for 4-Stars, but are less concerned with those. We decided the best case was to leave them as is but didn't want to repeat that again.

- I get why you would wanna make it cost more but if you’re gonna do that, it would at least be nice for when you get a dupe of a 6* to get more gold and more iso from that dupe. The cost would be more justified then cause to me it makes no sense that when you dupe a 6* you get the same amount of iso (I think gold too) as a 4*. I have never been able to comprehend that. Especially since duping a 6* is a bit more difficult for players who struggle getting 6* shards (uncollected and below).

How the month started and how it is going.Just 3-4 days back all of us were so happy and now.....

SirGamesBond

These two days really pulled me down.
Lol Frick it.
Im gonna stop commenting unless I have something good or helpful to say.

Vance2_jr

At this point, no one should be surprised. Honestly. Cool that they’re and all, but I won’t be buying them.

Vergeman78

The way things are going right now, instead of hiring some of your players to help with character designs, Kabam should seriously start thinking about hiring a public relation firm. Are you even aware we are your customers and we are the ones paying the bills? At one point, you need to reconnect with your customer base. While you still have one

The reason why it shouldn’t cost more is because this is a game, and the aim should be to keep the game fun, enjoyable and engaging for its players. When this is achieved, people are happy with the product and more inclined to spend money on it.

When they are disenfranchised they get annoyed and spend less, which initiates cash grabby mentality to make up additional revenue and which leads to battlegrounds.

And again, the odds of getting a specific champion increase, the but pool or good champions decreases. You’re at no better odds of getting a half decent champion than a normal 6* crystal. The extra cost is just to fleece players.

This whole month feels like an absolute debacle. This is the icing on the cake.

SandeepS

I'll give kabam a way of turning this into a win without changing the cost of the crystal. Make the dual class 6 star a nexus for 12.5k shards and complaints will stop and everyone will be happy.

Jaded

Uh yeah that would be an excellent change

While you make a point. There are now over 230 champions in the game. With around 225 of them being available as a 6 star... I feel this is far too many to try to fit into one crystal. Splitting them into three seems alot better. But there's no need to increase the cost. I get it might make the basic less relevant but the game has progressed to a point where the value of a basic doesn't feel worth it anymore.

SHIELD4AGENT

Now I can just always open Mutant Skill duals to dupe Nick and a new Red Mags. still missing a few heavy hitters from mutant and skill anyway so I'll take the extra cost.

Let’s show you how short sighted you are. The in game message clearly states for Cavalier+ players, the 6* Dual Class Crystals would be available. If you wanted to “break the precedent”, as you have indicated, you should have put these crystals available in “Featured Item” section of the store. That way, you could have priced the Dual Class Crystals based on Progression Level. Cavalier players can pay 12,500; Thronebreakers can pay 11,000, and Pargon players can pay 10,000.

RiderofHell

I am assuming we now gonna see more Dual Nexus Crystals? Since you guys first introduced through units purchase and currently in summer resort store. 🤔

MorningstarIsBae

Because nobody cares about 4 or 5* would be my guess

This is a much needed addition to the game. That being said....I don't like the price point, but I can see where it came from.

FULL PRICE
Basic - 10K
Dual - 12.5K
Featured - 15K

You essentially split the cost between a basic and featured due to the reduced champ pool. You should have taken into consideration the summoner sigil discount of the featured crystal when making your decision. You missed out on an opportunity to give it some added value. Also consider that the featured pool is 1/24 on odds....the odds on a dual crystal are roughly 1/70 - 1/80 depending on the crystal. This is figured on total champs....not just the basic pool, but you get the point. Considering that the odds are only going to get larger the more time goes by as more champs are added into the game.....I think the following is a fair compromise.

Summoner Sigil

Basic - 10K
Dual - 11K
Featured - 13K

Crys23

They had to sneek in some kabam greed in there.
Not interested. I'd rather pay 2.5k more and go for features.
With how large the 6* pool is now, people will go for 10k basics (smaller rosters) or 15k features (large rosters targetting specific champs).
The dual crystals seem out of place and kinda pointless at that price.
