Greetings Summoners!
Starting April 3 2023, we’re making a major change to Alliance Events that will consolidate ALL 1, 3 and 5-Day alliance events into one 7-Day event that rewards you for what you do in The Contest every day… Complete fights!
When looking to update Alliance Events and rewards, we ran into a problem. It was really difficult to make a meaningful rewards update that players could see and feel when rewards are spread across so many events. So we came up with a solution that allows us to give Alliance events a much-needed rewards update and simplify Alliance Events at the same time.
It is a new 7-Day event that replaces all existing 1, 3 and 5-Day events. It runs Monday through Sunday (Pacific Time zone), offsetting it from Summoner Advancement, and rewards points for completing fights in any game mode!
Here’s a breakdown of the points:
Each event will also have featured game modes 2x the points! Remember to check in every week to see if that week’s featured modes are: Alliance War and Alliance Quests, Incursions, or Battlegrounds and Arenas.

Not every Alliance is going to hit the top milestone, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Still, we are open to experienced feedback after the event is released and will take it into consideration if we need to make further changes.

Feedback and First-Hand experience
We know this is a major change to Alliance Events, and the tuning of the points may seem daunting at first. We're hoping we can all approach this new event with an open mind and give yourselves and our team the opportunity to try it out for a couple of weeks and then give us feedback based on first-hand experience. Every Alliance is different, and their experiences will differ based on what modes they prioritize, their level of activity, etc.Not every Alliance is going to hit the top milestone, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Still, we are open to experienced feedback after the event is released and will take it into consideration if we need to make further changes.

1) t4b are scarce in this meta but still required for paragon players since they’re needed to get to r2. It would be nice if there was a mechanism to trade the endless supply of “more valuable” t4cc for t4b.
2) alliance #101 is still getting 5-star sig stones. I know this is one of several rewards, but there are loads of Paragon players across top-1000 alliances and these rewards are out of step with the game in 2023, especially considering the number of 5-star stones in solo events.
You can throw 3 BGs matches every 2 days and get 5 generic 6-star stones every 6 days. The 101st rated alliance doesn’t even get 1-2 class stones?
Where are the hero crystals shards rewards ? No PHC, GMC, 3, 4 or 5* shards anymore? The milestones give these in the current 1 & 3 day events.
Or are you saying that the new improved SA rewards give the shards? In which case, they are NOT improved. You’ve just moved from them from the 1 & 3 day events and put them in the SA rewards 🤨
My second more minor concern is the scaling of the points and the way it skews very strongly towards battlegrounds but provides very little comparatively for questing, which is a bummer because I prefer questing over BGs. There is also no week that provides bonus points to questing content, unlike Incursions, BGS, arena and alliance content.
Again Kabam gets it wrong from the get go.
Add 4*/5* even 6* crystal shards...
I know most of the player don't valued 4*/5* Champs now a days but we need 4*/5* crystals for ISOs.
Definitely need to experience the differences to truly assess but seems like an underwhelming change.
