We are reaching the end of 2022 and you can't get a guaranteed 6star opening after a side event. I remember a year ago side events would often give up to 25k shards. Does Kabam even want people to stick around for the events anymore?

What events in the past have had 25k 6* shards?
Is there anywhere there's a list of side events? I used to open 2-3 6stars a month when I was cav. I'm paragon now and I open about 1 a month unless I explore side events/there's an extra event like EOP.
I don't like the idea of constantly making RNG rewards on side quests associated with rifts
Summoners against RNG!! RNG should be out of MCOC!!
What do we want?
No more RNG in a game built entirely on RNG!!
When do we want it??

The RNG part is already existing in the crystal itself as you can get a same class of an AG that you already have two of, but adding another layer of RNG whether you get the crystal itself or not was unnecessary imo

Cavalier+? What a slap in the face to Paragon players.
I was not expecting you to use the slap in a face phrase lol. But I agree.
Don't worry. It was purely sarcasm. Just wanted to be the first one to do it. It is a little weird that Cavs don't have their own as it's been TB/Paragon.

Cool. So you found 2 events. The 2nd event was a 2 part event which is 2 side quests. You said a year ago, events would OFTEN give up to 25k shards. Neither of the linked events gave 25k shards.
because every time we have RIFTS side quest y’all have an item that we can buy or win from SOLO EVENT that allows us to pick the path we want…
but because the rewards are so damn juicy, we don’t get such an item this month???
I did think that for a second, but then I realised that obviously it would just mean a guaranteed 6* awakening for everyone that month. So I understand why they didn’t.
Personally, I’d rather have a chance at a 6* gem than for it to be less good rewards but I can choose them. A chance at a 6* gem is better than guaranteed 5k 6* shards for example in my mind.
Since there are 35 entries, and a 1% chance for a 6* gem that means it’s 0.99^35 = 0.7 chance to not get a 6* gem all 35 times, so about a 30% chance for a 6*gem next month. I’m happy with that, going from a 0% chance for a gem to 30 is good with me.
I love addition of 6* AG. But, totally random drop chance is not good idea in my opinion, especially with things as rare as 6* AG's. Many people will get zero gems, meanwhile few will get to acquire, 2, 3, or even more gems. I would much rather see something as giving AG out periodically every few months through SQ, but for everyone.
For people complaining about the top part of the store being Cavlier+ instead of better things for TB and Paragon I think it actually is structured with progression locks keeping Cavs from getting the better value and rarity items and they just didn't post it correctly. If you look at the T5CC fragment rewards the 1% crystal and 2% crystals don't appear to be for the same tier of progression because you have to buy 1 1% crystal for 3,500 candy up to 5 times but the 2% crystal is 1 purchase that gives 5 crystals for only 5,000 candy. It is a similar thing with the T5B cat and the fragments.
Usually when they offer items like that with such a huge difference in what you get for the cost and the quantity of the items/fragments it is because the better ones are locked to keep lower progression players from getting them. We will have to wait a few days to see unless a mod deigns to clarify if they messed up the charts but from the looks of it I think we can buy all the lower progression stuff and Cav will be locked from some of the Cav+ chart.

I don't think its additive like that. Each entry u have 1% chance for awakening gem. If rng was additive then premium hero crystal would have given you guaranteed 4 star after 50 pulls at least. Chance being 2.4% so according to your calculation after 50 pull its 50X2.4= 120% chance.
But it isn't. 2.4% means each pull chance is 2.4% doesn't matter you open 1000 or 100.

Here's one with more 6star shards and it's a year and a half ago. We have the paragon title now and are getting (in some cases) worse rewards than Cav players 18 months ago. We are moving onto 7* but there's barely any reward progression here. https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/276484/solve-the-mystery-and-save-the-contest-this-september
It's pathetic, really.

A year ago and has 24k 6star shards.
What do we want?
No more RNG in a game built entirely on RNG!!
When do we want it??

Given the 6 star AG... maybe it would need to be a TB challenge for 1, and another one through a harder challenge for Paragon players.
prefer quests that give same rewards for the effort keeping content fair for all
Im hoping the month has more surprises
