Ascension dust

Kabam, why do we have to do soo much BG to get the dust to ascend a 6*? Completing 16 BG is all fine and dandy but winning 16 matches? Come on. It’s bad enough that for people who despise the game mode to begin with now have to deal with modders, OP rosters, and bugs in the game. Competing in matches is fine. I can set my phone down and let it play out and have the modders feel good about themselves. But I don’t care to actively engage with them in a mode that is terrible anyways.

    What makes it terrible? That you aren't as good as your opponents?

    Oh yes I forgot. I posted now the “get gud” mob needs to roll out from under their bridge and post. While I may not be a sweaty palms, play every hour gamer, I did make paragon, explore all story content and end game content. So please explain to me how I’m supposed to have SkIlLs to beat modders and account for lag and input drops in the game

    I have both gone heavy on playing BGs, and I have played them very sparingly. I have experienced modders, yes, but it is pretty infrequent tbh. It will take some time and effort to collect your final 20 dust, but why would you expect kabam to just hand it to you? You need to earn it now, or you need to wait until it becomes available in some other game avenue. You are getting these "get gud" responses because there is no excuse other than poor skills or lack of effort to complete the BGs objectives.

    I agree it feels kinda grindy but you can't expect to get one of the most valuable items like 10k 6 star relic shard or 6 star ancesion to be easy.

    Bro, they have literally handed us 180 dust particles. Were they behind objectives. Absolutely. Were those objectives difficult, absolutely not. The final 20 is in a game mode that is not only broken, but full of modders. Why put the last 20 in that mode of the game behind 16 wins? It makes no sense

    I don’t even care about the relic shards tbh. I only put them on champs if the nodes in the game require it. Relics have yet to show me they deserve my time and energy

    How dare they expect you to earn something after they gave you 90%. It's unbelievable

    Yes, there are modders and bugs in BG, but either I am very lucky or you are very unlucky if that's what is handicapping you from this. It is rare that I actually face someone who is obviously cheating, and if you are the same way, you can't use that as a shield to hide behind

    It's such BS that we have to actually earn the rewards this month. It's so unfair!!!!

    A shield to hide behind? Yea naw. BG is just as/if not more riddled with cheaters than arenas. The difference, the cheaters in arena don’t prevent me from obtaining units. As for the “earning” comment. They made 90% low hanging fruit then threw the last 10% in a game mode everyone knows is not functional to what it is intended to be and riddled with cheaters. So yea, I’ll continue to say that 16 WINS on top of 16 completions was an excessive objective to have.

    Again, if you read the original post. I’m just saying that 32 matches MINIMUM in BG is excessive because of how BG is as a mode. I have no problem with putting in time and effort into obtaining the dust. But in BG, naw. I don’t play games for PvP. Especially when PvP is riddled with cheats and “visual glitches”

    I like they did it this way it’s getting some of my lazy alliance mates to grind BGs when they normally wouldn’t. Helps them and the alliance at the same time, so it’s a win for everyone.

    If this BGs objective is too much then don't do it and wait until the next opportunity to grab som T2 dust.

    It's not like this is the last opportunity to get any so for those that want to do the BGs grind they can and they'll be rewarded, those that don't can simply wait.

    I stated an issue I have with the game. Y’all came in with the “gid gud” mob and started acting hyperbolic. If you disagree that’s fine but acting like trolls is another thing entirely.

    I can see how it helps. But I switched to energy to avoid cheaters in the game. And I know winning or losing with energy contributes basically nothing

    BGs is a grind anyway with the change to the tokens and tiers.

    Let's not forget that this objective is a complete and total bonus of stuff that most would be getting anyway

    BGs probably has the best rewards and store in the entire game.

    Do I love it? No

    Does it irritate me like crazy at times? Yes

    Will I complete my individual event? Yes

    I don't go crazy on BGs at all. And you actually do get decent points using energy, at the very least you will work toward your objective.

    Good luck in whatever you decide. But your complaints aren't really warranted. You don't want to play BGs for X reason, don't play BGs and don't get the rewards. Both are your decision to make.
