Glorious Games 7* Sig Stones

Of all the milestone prizes I’m most confused by the placement of the 7* Sig Stones that can only be used on the new Glorious Games champs.

By design from the event nobody can awaken either of the 6 from 3 keys in the milestones (solo, alliance, and realm), and with the Banquet key having a 0.3% chance from the SBC’s the chances of getting lucky at least 4 more times to be able to awaken 1 of the 6 is VERY unlikely unless you’re a Mega Whale. And for those Mega Whales they likely already have several 7* awakening gems to awaken any of them anyways.

With the low chance of people having an awakened 7* Glorious Guardian what was the point of including so many sig stones exclusively for them in rewards? It would have been way better if they were at MIN. class 7* sig stone crystals (not even generics).

    It is because the awakening gem is also locked to them. Hopefully we get champs who are worth the sigs.

    Totally agree. Far be it from me to suggest this is a pressing issue with the banquet, because it’s very much not, but it absolutely stings. I’m not getting more than the one key I’ve already claimed, and now I’m sitting on 40 sig stones that will rot in my inventory for almost certainly a year, probably longer, because there’s simply no way I’m ever duping the one glorious guardian I already have unless Kabam does a surprise move and sends them to the basics immediately after banquet ends. Forget about pulling and duping one of the other glorious guardians of course. For me, those milestones may as well have not existed.

    And yes, there is the awakening gem further in the realm event. I won’t hit that milestone. I’m sure plenty others won’t either. For all of us, the sig stones are useless. Regardless of the gem being “higher value” or whatever, I don’t really feel like you can justify not putting it before the sig stones in the rewards structure for that reason.

    As I understand it, there will be special Odins to buy with more keys in them. Assuming there's the usual limit of four, that would give you seven keys, which would awaken one of the champions for you. If you put down that much money, you probably buy enough crystals to be awarded that AG as well, giving you two champions to choose to sig up.

    With that little explanation out of the way, I agree with you. When you're not sure if you'll reach the AG as a f2p player, it feels a bit odd to have quite a lot of sig stones (I currently have 55) that you can only use on...well, no one. And probably not for a long time, considering that last year's "Banquet-exclusive" 7* champs were only just now added to the basic pool. I can understand that Kabam probably didn't want to add an AG too early among the rewards, but I would have personally preferred if they'd moved up the sig stones a bit and moved down some of the other rewards. I don't think the reward structure would have been broken if the 1-2 gem and a stack of those special sig stones switched places, for example.

    It’s filler in an event that used fragments of valuable things to create filler

    But why would they place something in the milestones that is only valuable if you get something further in the milestone, that's not really fair. I can't go further, only had 3300 units to begin with sad 😢

    Those sig stones are an insult. They should’ve replaced all of those milestones with 7 or Titan shards since the SBCs are almost entirely fragments of catalysts…
