    Hate the idea of pity systems. I get that it can be used by whales to acquire any champ that comes out so it surely enhances revenue and don't blame Kabam for this move, but I just have never liked the pity systems in games.

    I’m excited for it.

    Will this be limited by Progression or for all progressions?

    This test will be limited to certain crystals, with it being eventually applicable to all hero crystals?

    This is something the entire pay to play community has wanted for YEARS. Thank you very much for listening to us and giving us the ‘empathy’ system.

    I’m sure many people will shame it because it’s only a big leap for those who pay money for the crystals but it is still a leap nevertheless.

    I look forward to some great 7- Star heroes and watching damnepicwhale crash your servers XD

    I may have missed it on the stream, sorry - is there going to be a tracker that we can review?

    The every five will probably be simple enough. Every thirty too, though that one may get tricky as it's not cumulative but resets with any 7*

    The every 200 for the featured I imagine would be a nightmare to track without some aid.

    Well if the results are that in side quest we will FINALLY get valiant crystals instead of those extremely outdated GM crystals. And we get at least 20 every month so we have a guaranteed 7*. Then it will be one of the best pro player moves in years.
    If it's only on featured crystals in the store, it's yet again a only pro whale move. Who is stupid enough to pay 9.000 units for 1 7* and 60.000 units for a featured.

    Yeah the shame doesn't come from them catering to p2w, it's just more of a reason to laugh at the joke that is "we don't want the gap between the mega whales and the rest of the community to widen." Decision after decision proves this untrue.

    It’s difficult because this has been asked for for how long? And at what point is the threshold of praise vs frustration that it took so long.

    I think this will only be relevant for whales. And I think yall know that. The gap has never been wider between whales and the average player. The average player isn’t dropping their units on featured valiant crystals. It’s a complete waste of units for someone like me who grinds them in arenas and waits for the sales to happen throughout the year. 3k units for 10 crystals is not something I’ll be purchasing, therefore this pity system is useless for me.

    I think I’m airing on the side of this has taken too long to implement and that’s frustrating. I’d like to see this applied to standard valiant and paragon crystals. Then it would have use for the larger majority of the player base.

    My last thought is that many other games have this system coded from day 1 of the games launch. It’s hidden somewhere that players can’t easily see but it’s a feature that’s standard. And to see this being paraded around like some new shiny toy when hundreds of infuriating bugs still exist in the game and aren’t being addressed is beyond frustration.

    Outdated and out of touch, as usual with crystals and other game rewards.

    But then with more & more people leaving the game (Due to things like unaddressed AI issues) they need to charge more to maintain the revenue stream.....
