Entry cost: 15 - 90 (6x increase)
Solo objective
Match complete: 800 - 2250 (2.81x increase)
Match won: 1250 - 4500 (3.6 x increase)
Alliance objective
Match complete: 600 - 2250 ( 3.75 x increase)
Match won: 1200 - 4500 (3.75 x increase)
Across all we get an average points increase of 3.4775 ( (2.81+3.6+3.75+3.75) /4)
Granted placing champs with specific tags will increase the points we can acquire however we had this before and all have seen simple multipliers as above. You also need to take into consideration that the win is far more important and champs will be picked on there effectiveness, not what tag they are.
Personally this doesn’t affect me as I have no intention of purchasing elders marks but from what I can see just from looking at multipliers, though the points have increased the “value” of elders marks has dropped because of the great increase in entry cost in proportion to the increase in points. Not to mention the multiple of 2.6 for current elder mark conversion not being inline with the multiplier in points for season 2.
The only explanation I can see for the low conversion ratio for elder marks is that the points you are now able to acquire from using energy are being factored into the equation, which in fairness to people who purchased/ purchase elder marks shouldn’t be taken into consideration. Especially considering the decision was made to lock all the rewards behind a massive paywall through elder marks ( before anyone complains I am not bothered by it in the slightest and have no desire to spend money to compete for those rewards) and that it hasn’t been reiterated in this post as mentioned for the season 1 changes that at the event of the event alliance and solo score will be multiplied by 3 for season 1 & 2.
In summary I think clarification on how the decision to increase the cost of entry for elders marks and the conversion rate used is not an unreasonable thing to ask.
The real win is still the AG for many of us and that's beind EMs,
I don't know if I can reach there just by skill.
I really don't want to complain because of the reason Kabam took actions and did a full makeover of BG store.
IMO BG store is OP or maybe too OP LMAO, getting access to such great rewards, I never thought of me getting those easily as f2p.
BG store took care of shards, sigs, t5b, t2a, t4cc, t5c top up on demand, r4 mats on demand.
Could we have got an AG or SIG's for ranking high in real GC standings? Idk
I'm only sore(lil bit only) about solo mode AG.
Maybe I can get the rank if I can spend some units on them. Maybe it's worth some unit investment. Will see how things turns out after this season.
BGs is the best game mode, as it requires not much time commitment for every single player to have fun in it.
Thinking out loud here. Lol
I do have some issue but on the other side I'm completely satisfied from the BG store too.
If one of them finds a match and the other doesn’t, I know they haven’t matched. So I click decline match and try again until they both get a match at the same time.
Basically they took the shards from the rank rewards and added them in the store instead
Does Kabam really not see the difference? If you pay 6 times as much to get 6 times as much, you also risk 6 times as much. 1 match lost costs you 6 matches. Where you would’ve had 5 additional matches to make up for the one. Even with a reduced cost, you’ve increased the amount that can be spent in a given amount of time. $$$ the number one complaint was pay to play. Playing the shell game doesn’t change that it’s still a system that ensures that playing alone will not give anyone a chance to be competitive.
If you cannot do the maths properly, you cannot say its not working and bla bla.
Guys, do the maths, now, in general (with a win ratio of 50%) if you play around 105 matches (with the elder marks given for free) and the rest with energy, you will reach the top milestone from alliance (if every 30 players do the same thing) and for solo event.
Just chill and play, its soooo many better than the first season.
Now all top 1000 will get the same 10k shards only? Am I missing something here? This is kinda disappointing.
