Dear KABAM Team,

Greetings !

I just wanted to know when the act 6 rewards would be buffed up. I haven't heard of anything in the last livestream about it. Hopefully, please acknowledge and revert to this in your upcoming live stream in June. There are some of us, especially those newer ones, who would benefit from some clarification.

Thank you. See you in the Battlerealm !

Regards,
Fellow Summoner

    For many people, beating the GM or not could be the difference in a progression title.

    I’m sure they would appreciate knowing whether they’d be delaying or foregoing rewards by doing so, esp with July 4 sales presumably close.

    This is why Kabam doesn't like telling us things too far in advance.

    It wouldn’t be hard to say the act 6 update is 3-4 months away, 6-9 months away, or perhaps most usefully, something like “we know the update isn’t imminent, so don’t let the possibility of a rewards buff dictate what you clear or don’t”

    Pushing to paragon and valiant will be better than updated rewards.
    If you’re in act 6 and you can push to valiant before act 6 gets buffed, then Kabam should apologize for even bringing up an act 6 buff.

    I don’t think it’s that kind of timetable.

    Seems kind of stupid to do this, like why make a MFer wait when you can just buff it on the next update. No instead we have to wait till October for the updated awards.

    It seems like the smart thing would have been to buff act 5 and act 6 at the same time. Otherwise, your buff of act 5 is just training people to wait for 6.

    If they had given any timetable at all, topics like this wouldn’t exist. Timetable could’ve been anything - 3 months, 6 months, around a year. At least then people would know.

    I respect that they put a substantial amount of time into managing the game economy. This is roughly 185 paths worth of content. It’s much harder than act 5, fight for fight, and it’s more paths. If they need time to really weigh what that buff looks like, that’s fine. It’s an opportunity to give a lot of summoners a lot to do. For many of us, it’s the only content that we haven’t 100%ed.

    I agree that knowing when they update will be helpful as:
    1. New players are finding it un-intelligent - act 6 rewards being much much lower than act 5, while difficulty being much much harder.
    2. It would have been fine if they hadn't told us about upcoming buff, but now cavaliar or below players (those who haven't completed act 6) are in a fomo situation. It would really really suck to loose on the updated rewards. Worse would be to loose them over a couple of days margin.
    For people saying that pushing to valiant would be better than waiting for act 6 buff:
    - Some players like to take their time completing the content.
    - Not everyone are lucky to pull meta characters. Every reward matters to lower level players
    - Have you not looked at act 5 reward buff?? Act 6 buff has to be juicy.
    - Rushing titles will not be beneficial in the long run. Some resources are way to easier to get when you are on lower progression.

    Yeah, any general guideline would’ve been greatly appreciated.
