**KNOWN AW ISSUE**
Please be aware, there is a known issue with Saga badging when observing the AW map.
The team have found the source of the issue and will be updating with our next build.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
**KNOWN BG ISSUE**
We are aware of an issue with the seeding for the beginning of the BG season.
We are adding rewards to higher progression brackets to offset the additional grind.
More information here.
**Arcade is being extra tricky with his Murder Box...**
It appears Arcade has been non-cooperative in his approach to this month's side quest and presented his clues in a nonsensical order. Lucky you, Summoners, we have our best and brightest on the case and those clues should now be a lot more straightforward. While messing around in Arcade's files we came across a phrase, highlighted and bolded, with sparkles and pointy arrows: "the abode for the dead" ... Maybe that will help you along the way!

    If there is any aspect of act 4 that qualifies as a pain point that is holding people back they have no business advancing past that in the game.

    I remember fully exploring that years ago with 3/4 *s that would be considered garbage champs now a days.

    Nerfing stuff like that is why people don't develop skills and complain about difficulty of higher acts and monthly EQ/SQs.

    I’m not sure how to address that. I mean I don’t disagree per se. I am just forced to guess that kabam has some data that shows less engagement from the player base ; for various reasons. Too long. Outdated rewards. Etc. . My belief is they weight stances like skill and player conditioning versus engagement and outdated usefulness. In the balance something is going to miss out (like skill) and they would rather player engagement remain high 🤷‍♂️. Because if every new player is just doing completion and the easy path - regardless of skill level - what’s the point of it? It’s not even mid content anymore but beginner content

    Act 4 is definitely too long. Way too long and grindy for little reason and rewards even after they shortened it the first time imo

    So they can drop the energy requirement from 2 to 1. But a nerf is unnecessary.
    If this game is going to last, everything needs to be open to updating. Mcoc will never stop changing, so changing old content will always be necessary.

    You don't speak for the entire player base. This isn't the first time they've done this and 90 days is what they've done in the past. Get over yourself, you aren't special.



    They did it with early acts and those rewards were 100% pointless updated act 5 rewards might be decent still for older players considering it already has stuff I could use
    Early acts had a ton of units added. Not pointless for any progression.

    I could be reading it wrong but it read to me like act completion not title progression. If you finished act 4 in the last 90 days you will according to the post. They may update the rewards difference in between (I.e. whatever bump they’re may be for 5.1 and 5.2) but you will be in line for the new act 5 completion rewards anyway if you finish after the august changeover.

    i mean , i can definitely related to that . I would be more than happy getting the revamped act 1 2 3 rewards , that was hella lot of units , which is never gonna be outdated . Same goes act 4 and 5 revamp , although i am sure no way i will get those buffed rewards

    Why do you think that the people who completed prior to their given time didn't spend any revives or resources in completing those acts?
    What makes these players not deserve the difference between old and updated rewards?

    Because they're past the 90 window?

    Yeah and why is that?
    I don't really care since I never explore acts(only have act 1,2 and 7.1 explored)
    But it feels unfair to those who did explore acts those with lesser/lower/weaker champions and with lesser options to choose from...
    Anyways like I said I don't really care about the rewards difference unless it's like 6-8k 4* shards and some gold which I could really use...

    Nobody even knows what the updated rewards will look like. People are arguing and being rude without having all the information at hand. I highly doubt the updated rewards will significantly impact people who finished it years ago, unless there’s maybe a large pool of units. I’m pretty sure I finished Act 4 & 5 right outside of that window and I’m not super stressed about it. I doubt they would even help my new account much. Kabam can be really stingy with rewards. Act 4 is honestly a breeze for new accounts today. I really want those mastery points but I don’t want to explore it. Act 4 is just so tedious and takes so much time and energy that it’s not worth exploring anymore. The biggest buff they should do is moving the mastery points to completion instead of exploration.

    I explored acts 1-5 with rank 4 and 5 4*'s and rank 2-3 5*'s. It's completely fair for those in the past 90ndays because the content is relative to their progress.
