    Guys , I've 5K Units what should I do? Invest or Not?

    If you have the time and patience, you can get 1-2.5k units from the arenas during the Banquet event.

    Here’s my logic: 23,813 for Isophyne
    1200 from sinister bundles (12 SBC)
    400 from GBC in accolades
    500 from SBC in accolades
    400 from SBC in alliance and solo events

    21,313 total points left/ 400 points (as the rest have the be bought so 300 points for buying, 100 for opening)
    = 53.28 crystals -> 54 since it needs to be whole

    54 * 300 units = 16,200 - 1150 (free units) = 15,050

    Typing this out made me realize I wasn’t rounding so unfortunately a little more

    Depends if they’re counting the ones with tokens as “purchasing”. I’m going to guess prob not but only one way to find out

    Nvm. Just 100. Read it somewhere

    Wow people complain about everything! Half the player base isn’t happy unless they get titan crystals from every event

    What you have is likely the maximum unit requirement. There is only one caveat. Crashed said on the stream that the SBC will cost less than GBC if I recall correctly. So we don't know the price of an SBC.

    Can @DNA3000 or @Cat_Murdock or someone like that do the math etc on units needed for solo/alliance/realm milestones? An infographic would be cool.

    Other way around. GBC will be discounted, SBC will be 300 units. Based on the points, I would guess GBC will be 250 units.

    Edit: not sure why the quote is weird on this.

    10k in banquet is not really that much....

    Bear in mind that this is the REALM event I am talking about. I am perfectly fine with this number of units being only a few milestones in the solo/alliance part of the event, because that motivates players to spend more and it had always very high ceilings. That's fine.

    However Realm event should be the global effort of all players, and it doesn't motivate people to participate, when they know that unless they get 23k points (which is well over 10k units), they will be left very far behind. Which btw makes it the first realm event that is realistically unachievable for significant amount of players.

    Again, it's Kabam's game and if they say the top rewards in a realm event require the equivalent of $400+ in units, I can only deal with their decision. I will be spending all my units, because it's christmas and I wanna have fun, but admittedly, knowing that this leaves me far behind community's efforts leaves a bit of a bitter aftertaste.
    I repeat 10k units for banquet wasn't really much to start with, 15k with 3 running events doesn't seem crazy at all...
    Yes I understand that previously maybe 10k let you clear the solo, I also remember when CM unit deals you could spend a lot less than now...
    And please don't bring out the dollar value when most people farmed their units, it's not like the company will make 400+ dollars worth back from running this events. Cause that's one of the funniest arguments F2P make.. comparing it to dollars while not spending.

    The Event has always been most lucrative for those who spend the most. This is no more a harsh reality than it's been every other year.

    So how much does one need to spend to get all milestones lol

    It was 11,700 last year I believe. So while an increase it wasn’t going to be 10k

    Yeah i just used 10k because of the title of this post. I knew deep inside it would be more than last year regardless.

    How much unit for the she-hulk deathless piece? that's my only interest in the banquet event.
  • FurrymoosenFurrymoosen Member Posts: 4,437 ★★★★★

    How much unit for the she-hulk deathless piece? that's my only interest in the banquet event.

    If you're in an alliance and you have enough banquet crystals tokens, then 0 units you already have. She's at 3360 points. Those points get you 1,150 units (3 crystals, 1,200 points) from both solo and alliance events. Those points also gets you 3 crystals (300 points). So 1,500 points there. Add in 12 crystals from tokens (1,200 points) and another 900 points (5 GBC and 5 SGBC) from the accolades event. So without spending a single unit, if you can check all the free boxes, you've got 3,600 points.

    Definitely feels like the rewards for the realm event were definitely taken from solo and alliance events again…

    I'm sure everyone who thinks the solo and alliance rewards should just be higher thinks that, but as far as I'm aware that's not what happened. The Realm event was simply added to the rest of the events, without taking any reward budget from the main events. This is in direct response to players who argued that removing the alliance events during the BG realm event had negative consequences on participation, and caused the devs to reconsider that decision during that event. In this event, they didn't touch the main solo and alliance events at all when crafting the realm event element.

    Anyone else helping they do a deal on units again this year? Like the 50% extra they did.
  • Ayden_noah1Ayden_noah1 Member Posts: 1,920 ★★★★
    @TribalChief has compared the cyber week sale compare to the banquet event. Looks like overall the banquet is better.


  • HoardinUnitsIsGreatHoardinUnitsIsGreat Member Posts: 7
    After spending 14k units on cyber deals, and left with less than 2k units, managed to grind to 11k units. So finding out we need more. Ci la vie. But will do a little more to squeeze a couple more thousand units.

    You left out the part where “better” is solely contingent on luck vs guarantee during CW.

    There is a table on another post based on Milestomes only.. banquet can be considered better.

    Kabam clearly stated that realm is in addition to and nothing has been taken away.

    yet the solo and alliance milestones r basically useless. thank god for the realm event or we wouldve gotten nothing lmao so either they lied and the realm did take stuff out of solo and alliance, or they somehow thought these were good and we got lucky by getting an extra realm event to save banquet

    how many of the bozos complaining about higher banquet costs are also asking for an arena buff?
