What just happened in the realm event?

Why did we suddenly get 100mil out of thin air?

Did anyone else jump levels too? I had just hit vibranium 1 and when I logged back in later I was in gamma III. I didn’t play a match and my points contribution was the same.

Once you beat vib 2 then you’re in GC, it confused me last season when I thought I had to grind through vib1

@DNA3000 do you got any insight on this?
I do, but I believe I should let Kabam address this one.

This confuses a lot of people. The VT tiers are fence posts, not fences.

In other words, when you ding Vibranium 5, that means you’ve reached the Vibranium 5 fence post, like a flag pole. You’re now playing in between V5 and V4. When you get enough medals you reach the V4 flag, then the V3 flag. When you promote from V2 to V1 you reach the V1 flag. That’s the finish line: there is no more VT.

HOWEVER you are not technically in GC, no matter what the indicator says, because you haven’t played a GC match yet. That’s why you have to play at least one match after promoting to V1. That is your first actual GC match, when you actually enter GC and qualify for GC rewards.

Remember: fence posts, not fences.

So we weren't on the right track with people getting into GC?

We were on track for a billion, but not the stretch goals, probably. If i had to guess Stark Industries will donate 300-500 Mil points throughout the event

I don't like guesses.. let's pressure them into commitment to give us 400M points.. just a in between 300-500.

I think it was strategic. I was keeping up with the realm milestones so I had to go play a bunch of matches to keep up with milestones that I probably wouldn't have otherwise.

good stuff happened and people complained anyway

Gonna need to increase the cap on elders marks or extend their stay in the stash. And turnoff the limits in the store… this event all of the sudden has so much in overflow that it’s going to go to waste for me. I can’t play enough battlegrounds to keep up

You have all season to claim those even if they expure in your stash. I do the same with alliance event every season where I'll just claim it directly from the quest page even though it expired weeks ago in my stash.

Great! Now I need to surpass these milestones

Saw a post about the realm event donation of points by stark foundation who did they do it exactly though?

So the countdown timer showing just a few days in the overflow doesn’t matter?

They're moving the goalpost so those who were doing the minimum are now behind. If they want rewards they'll be forced to do more than 3 every 2, thus artificially inflating participation, engagement,
everything (hypothetically). Unearned rewards are best for business these days round these parts.

Crafty.

Even with this I'll end up wasting almost all the milestone EM's( ~4000). I am at 8000 EM/ 5200 pts.What a waste! Probably should planned it out better though...
