Initially I didn't agre with you post, specially with the last part. You are not entitled to any rewards no matter how high your prestige is or what type of account you have. I do agree that they should have allowed planning which they failed completely. Its too many damn modes to be able to keep track. You can't quit an alliance cause War season, you can't quit cause of BG rewards, or Raids or whatever mickey mouse alliance event is running. They need to sync events or simplify them.
I agree that I’m not entitled to the max rewards. I was heated when I found this out and just decided to drop some account stats in case someone did the typical “this event wasn’t meant for you”. At the same time, I think it’s crazy that I never even stood a chance to get the max rewards. I claimed the twitch drops early, so I’m already out of 2500 points. And my alliance leader signed us up for regular raids before we had a chance to realize that it constrained you from missing literally anything else. I guess my frustration was more with the fact they made none of the details about the event clear beforehand, so I had no time to prepare and pitch to my alliance to do the nightmare raids.
You guys can switch to nightmare raids moving forward. Then that bumps your cap back up to 297k.
I'm just wondering, when has this event been announced? Is there a clear overview how many points we can get and from where? It all seems insanely confusing
I might have missed it, but from my point of view, the event was just sort of there.
All I know is that since last year, we had something like log in each day, do a fight or nothing, and get some stuff daily for X days as the yearly appreciation. Now we have, log in each day, play around 2 hours, do objectives, do BGs, do incursions, do extra content, convince your alliance to do Nightmare raids, get frustrated during nightmare raids if your alliance members are not to the level to do them, get frustrated waiting for a BG match, get frustrated will playing with the new bugs, if nothing works buy unit packs, and have a nice summer. This is way too much for one t7 and one titan.
I just hate I didn’t wait to claim the twitch drops until after the event. Now there’s a bunch of people ahead 🥲…in a ranked event…and here they are shrugging it off
I don’t think they have included any summoner fest points in the drops yet? I thought it was for the streams in July and August. Because I just realized my twitch drops expired an hour ago and I forgot to claim them.
Yes. There were people who waited until after the event went live to claim and gave them points. It didn’t give points to the people who claimed their drops ON July 2nd.
Yep. If you would’ve claimed them you would’ve gotten points. Kabam has responded saying they only “intended for it to be” the two streams you referenced, but that doesn’t change the fact that people got the points from these past twitch drops. Unfair at that point bc you have people like myself and many others who claimed on day of stream not knowing to wait until event started. Now those people have a leg up
What bothers me most about that is how many times people complained on the stream about JUST getting HP pots. They stayed quiet, they just said it was a test. Why not come clear about it? Tell everyone who actually bothered supporting the stream what those drops could mean?
Oh yeah for sure. And then you have folks like me who DID support the stream and claimed the drops and didn’t even get the points bc I “claimed them too early”? How does that even make sense lol

I meant support as in being there and showing interest. I went for the drops and promocode tbh 🤣
The communication was half assed, didn't they used to make a post with a chart of all the event points and rewards? They just didn't consider that some people might move alliances to be able to score the most.

I agree that this is something that they should correct. It is legitimately unfair. They basically got the equivalent of $700-$2,000 worth of points depending on how it was scored.
Ever drop mail gav 2.5k so in total 7.5k
Well then $2,000 worth of points for free. That is a severe advantage over everyone that either didn't earn or already claimed their drops. Those points need to be removed or everyone that didn't get them needs to receive them.
Or they shouldn’t have ranked rewards in them it dumb.
Ranked rewards are a good thing to have. Players that do more than the bare minimum should get more than players that only do the bare minimum. The problem is they put ranked rewards behind a paywall and that shouldn't happen on something like this where points are earned by playing the game. Keep that garbage to the banquet. Players that put the most time and energy into the game should get the most here, not those who spend. But Kabam doesn't seem to want to change course on this junk anytime soon.
Player who pay are keeping the game alive. Players who spend time less so, they are important but not as much as the one who are actually paying. It's fine they can have a few more goodies which FTP players can get in 6 months.

Yeah. My main problem is actually convincing my alliance to do nightmare raids. We’re all on a pretty high level but my leader doesn’t want to do them due to there being so many bugs and a whole new system to learn that we haven’t had a chance to practice. And I wouldn’t be surprised some alliance mates start sandbagging, as they already do that during regular raids.

Get into a better alliance. It sucks to have some ambitions but surrounded by dudes who want to keep it in neutral.

What do the final milestones cost you?
Everything bcos you have to do literally everything to get the final milestones
No sufficient cushion if you miss a piece of content
Unable to defeat the final boss in nightmare raids every week?
That's Drax and Mantis laughing at you
