Glory store update is nice but with the cost and such of running the higher maps, can't see that either of the alliances I'm apart of, are going to actually try and push any higher than we already are. Reward is not worth the cost. We make enough glory alone as a top 300 alliance doing map 6.
u get top 300 with map 6x3x5? I'm not saying its not possible I just didn't know that could be done
Update is bad but not terrible I guess. Lots of missing things which include * lessening the amount of days required to play AQ. * Removal of map crystals yet no replacement in value - Yes there are more you can buy but it should've been like this long time back * No increase in limit for Glory * Forced opening of map crystals * Revives should follow like AW where its %ge based * No updates on tickets * No mention of AI updates - defensive AI is just zzz * Same limit to number of items to buy ie 10 for T5B frags * T4CC class selector limited to 1 per day * Gold crystals are now UC but still just provides 1x. Not even close to help with rank ups

I see there is a still a glory dead zone between milestones 34 and 39. Is that intended?
Once you get past 250 million points, you don't see another glory increase until 600 million. And then it's a huge jump. This looks wrong. Every other milestone in the surrounding area is consistent, predictable, and uniform.

Absolutely.
We get roughly the same for doing 666 also.
More importantly Wait didnt see this till now but from this ss, did the exploration gold went down? From 21k to 12k for exploration...can you confirm also?

If it is right, then the update sucks even more
I believe you are right. The gold reward per day is going down to 12k gold. That seems completely backwards. Not sure why that would ever get nerfed in the first place.
I like this update, makes AQ more worth it instead of being completely useless. Map 6 is easy enough and gets you over 4.4k glory, which gets you a lot more from the glory store than before. This is a huge improvement.
Not a great update for a top 20 AQ alliance where historically you were able to keep pushing in the prestige race for upgrade materials that would keep you ahead. Now we have a cost of entry and a more difficult map, with no prestige enhancing enhancing materials. They've effectively made prestige irrelevant until they include T6CC or Relic materials

And the T4CC isn't even a selector, at least that's not how it reads. It's going to be a rotating class each day, limited to 1 a day...I was hoping for like 5-10 a cycle of any class we so choose, like all Mutant or whatever.
good update.... for 2021 now we are about to enter 2023. but we going to get semi-outdated rewards. and I assume rewards not going to be updated until another 8 months minimum. oh well. I'm sure nothing we say gonna matter, so we have to appreciate what we get anyway
My initial read over it felt like it was lacking, with a increased difficulty those map rewards per day could have been much better. This is where they should have added more t6bc and t3a instead they have more t5bc and T2a. No more map crystals but I don’t see where it adds up elsewhere. Over 4k glory just to buy 25% of a t6bc in the glory store but if we are running map 8 with mods we will probably need more health pots to ensure completion. I see we can earn about 7k glory weekly about where my ally finishes… ugh still obsolete before being released.
Map/Room rewards should have t6bc/t3a Tickets removed Honour rewards should have t3a/class for top tiers Glory needs to be increased (by a lot and increase the maximum amount) 40% revives for 1 glory added (keep healing potions the same)

I’m pretty sure the 21k you are seeing in the shot above is for all 3bgs, or 7k each. The new one is 12k each, thus being 36k.
Pros: -better rewards (glory store) -new opponents -better rewards exploration etc… Cons: -still no change to the format. This was probably the #1 request from players. Moving to a 3 or even 4 day cycle. Apparently this fell on deaf ears….. again -rewards are still not worth the time investment -same boring thing every day -no glory cap increase -outdated revive and healing potions with much larger health pools… again -no removal of ticket system -seems to be forcing people to go higher in maps, which also ties into the time commitment required for AQ. It just isn’t worth it
OMG THIS!!!!
The one i wanted the most was to change the whole AQ format, but i agree that would take a major work, however... man.. the most important and needed one was the HP potions, in all game modes, specially solo players events, cause those hp potions are a complete joke!! I rly cant understand WHY they havent adressed this already, it seems something pretty simple
What's the point in only having T4CC (rotating class) available once a day?
Is it a rotating class though? Or will it be one of each class. From the wording it seems difficult to see, but I think it'll be one of each class like what we have with the t3cc and lower right now in the glory store.
I hated how boring, repetitive and time-consuming it felt, and i still feel that
Thank god im in a endgame player ally that pretty much everyone despises AQ so much that we do M5 only and yet we dont even finish it quite often due to slacking, and that best part is nobody cares XD

I think they are removing the 3600 rotating shard offer and putting in a selector. They could also just be adding in one of each like the others that are in there for T1CC but I just don't understand the 1 day thing. Same with health pots. Why limit to 2/day.
Lazy, entitled people everywhere... I would love to have a zero stress, 2-hour-a-day job but have Elon Musk's paycheck. If you want gold, do things that award gold. Dont expect to get handed gold just because you think you deserve it. "Too time consuming" Jesus F.. Christ, Map 8 requires 10 minutes of play every 5 hours, 3 times a day.... that's a whopping 30 minute requirement. You want rewards and the ability to keep up with top alliances/players with zero or bare minimum effort. Lazy, entitled bums
How long does it take for you to grind 1.2 million gold to pay for map8? I could use units but it is easier and better rewards to just room 25 incursions. They claim they want higher maps more accessible but they did nothing to lower the cost.
I haven't had gold trouble for 5 years, but here it goes... I'll share my usual routine. I run both 6 star arenas, grind for milestones only. Summoner trials I only go for 4-5 milestones. I rarely did incursions before the update, now I do it casually and get to room 12-15 in sectors 7 thru 9. Throughout the month i autoplay monthly quest, normal (completion), heroic and masters (exploration), I usually autoplay when I'm driving to work and throughout my day untill I get home and I actually use energy, it may be uncollected and cav exploration or BGs. I run map 8 in a top 45 alliance and Tier 1 AW, I sometimes help with war planning. BGs I tried to go for Celestial and stay there but dropped down to Mysterium cause modders, sh¡t happens, I dont stress about it. I do spend and spend quite a lot, thank God I have an amazing job that allows me to focus on things I love. I open Cav crystals, more than I would like to. All this means I have enough gold/ISO to last me a lifetime.
As you can see, I bust my ass playing a game I love, I put in the work and invest time and money.
I see so many posts from people that do a fraction of the things others do and demand the same rewards.
Life doesn't work that way, why would a game that requires time investment and involves real money transactions be any different?
I don't expect anyone to do what I do, but at least work for what you want, EARN it, dont demand equality when you're not willing to put in the work.
Seems like a pretty weak update to me. Prices for T5CC, T3A and T6B seem too high. And the difference between Paragon and Thronebreaker is tiny except for T3A and T6B, but those quantities are so small, it doesn’t even matter. Very lame. Becoming Paragon is a big achievement.
It also sucks that they didn’t do anything with the ticket system or heal potions/revives. It absolutely doesn’t encourage people to do higher maps.
Pretty disappointing that we had to wait almost 8 months for this. Especially considering AQ has been horribly outdated for a while now.

So if we’re going to be forced to open all our crystals will we finally be able to sell higher end materials so that they don’t just all expire in our stash? @Kabam Miike
Quite possibly the worst update to AQ that I've ever witnessed. There's nothing that makes the mode attractive to play. Map 8 w/modifiers is going to be worse than AW and you can only still buy 2 9.5k health pots a day.
You can't revive more than 4k without spending units.
You're forced to make a choice of either using Glory for pots/revs or units and will pretty much everyone playing map 8, we're all using R4's with large health pools.
The very least they could have done is add 40% team revs to the glory store.
They need to get rid of the ticket system or lower the cost of using resources to get 150 tickets per cycle.
Just an absolute garbage update.
@Demonzfyre I don't understand. I've read many times on this very forum that you always blindly support Kabam. Don't you mean it's the best update ever?
Don’t like the change about opening all your crystals, I see no point in this what so ever, why can’t we use them as we need them. Just another cash grab by Kabam.

* lessening the amount of days required to play AQ.
* Removal of map crystals yet no replacement in value - Yes there are more you can buy but it should've been like this long time back
* No increase in limit for Glory
* Forced opening of map crystals
* Revives should follow like AW where its %ge based
* No updates on tickets
* No mention of AI updates - defensive AI is just zzz
* Same limit to number of items to buy ie 10 for T5B frags
* T4CC class selector limited to 1 per day

Complaining is the default setting for millenials and Gen Z-ers.
AQ already irrelevant and the buff hasn’t gone live yet.
What a shame.
