Can those of us who popped enough crystals to get maxed Realm rewards get them anyway?

I don't like events where rewards are based on community participation, and especially when that participation involves spending. It feels like a group project in school. The realm milestones are creeping up at this point, and I'm concerned that we're going to plateau pretty soon. Any chance those of us who popped enough crystals to max out our realm points will get the rewards anyway? I'm at 26,400 points out of 25,574, so should get all of that.

There’s over 12 days left, just be patient. It’ll get there.

I have a STRONG feeling that if we don’t hit the milestones the Stark Foundation will come in and finish it off. I mean there’s no way they can make the crystals bad, put the good rewards in the realm event, and then not give them out to players who spent 15-20k units to make sure they hit the top rewards (which far exceed the solo or alliance based rewards in terms of points and quality)

There should also be some Christmas offers coming out that will help entice people to spend even more (yes, I know many people are saying the event is terrible and they won't spend anymore, but many will keep appending).

I was wondering about this as well. I kinda feel bad for the Kabam folks because somehow they need to keep everyone happy. To me it seems like having a more stratified rewards system would be good. AW rewards used to be great when I was Cavailer, but not that I'm one run away from Valiant I find it difficult to be motivated for AW. Paragon and Valiant should have had superior crystals with better rewards, and then a different level of crystal for TB and Cavalier.

This I don't want to hear, but I might partake if the deals are good. Either way I think the Kabam folks are getting an ear full over this mess.

A very valid point, That's what I have been saying in my other posts as well.

These Realm events are absolute brainrot. Kabam absolutely will step in to raise the score.

There's no way they don't give us all the milestones to try to earn some good faith with the community. It's realistically their only way out of this debacle at this point, which is just going to be a slap in the face to those of us who opened enough ShiBC to get those milestones.

It's super interesting to see how terribly mismanaged this event was and how insanely out of touch the staff is with the community considering how many staff members actively play the game and participate with players in the community. Part of me wonders if this was intentional - disappoint the community to offer a mediocre solution that will make the intended reward seem better than they would have been without the initial deception? Idk tbh. All I know is this is comically bad.

The problem obviously is the event is so meh a lot of people have just decided to close the wallet and save their units.we are only just over halfway so we are pretty much depending on something being done,but when the last answer was 7* basic crystals you have to be worried.
Christmas?bah Kabumbug!

Notice how the banquet event information with the specifics was delayed by A LOT compared to last year, and how the CCP meetup at Kabam seemed to take everyone away from their work (both Content Creators and Kabam staff).

It feels to me like they ran out of time this year being overly ambitious and carefully considered decisions surrounding the banquet is what feel through the cracks.

it's been 2 realm events and both got boosted to reach the goal. Do people never learn? Realm events aren't stretch goals to reach by the community. They are just arbitrarily time gated solo events

Can those of us who popped enough crystals to get maxed Realm rewards get them anyway?
