Promo code

It's a shame that Paragon is bunched in with TB. I feel Paragon should be bundled with Valiant or perhaps Paragon could 7* version and Valiant could 7* with a rank up gem or some sig stones. I'm just thinking out loud.

I think I will, when it is time use the promo code:

It has an Avengers Endgame vibe in it.

No, Kabam got it right this time, especially if they're just handing out Paragon without the requirement for players to clear content. There can now be Paragon players in Act 4; surely they don't deserve to get a 7* champ. Hopefully this version of reward segregation continues and those that have progressed by progressing through content have the best rewards reserved for them only. If you want them, you know what you have to do.

There's a reason #2 stands below #1 in every single competitions and never together, never will.

Curious what about those of us, myself included who actually earned Paragon the old fashion way, what does it say for them that you would bunch with those who just "got" the title.

I'm in Act 8 Chapter 3. So I'm not far off, but still working my way there.

It just feels odd when you work hard for a progression, that then you get grouped in with a previous progression. Just feel in someway there could be an honest difference between TB and Paragon.

Now you understand how Valiants have felt the majority of the time for nearly the entire existence of the progression. We've been constantly lumped in with Paragon players, either getting reduced rewards ourselves or Paragon getting better rewards than they've earned. No matter what it looks like, Valiants should always be getting something better than Paragon. Does that mean Paragon has to be lumped with TB? No, but it does mean that Paragon shouldn't be getting what Valiants can get. There's got to be something to actually encourage players to clear through content.

As Kabam continues to make these progressions handouts, the need to do content is diminishing. There is little to incentivize players to actually move forward in the game. Thousands, maybe even 10s of thousands of players that can't even clear Act 6 just got handed a new progression and now have even less reason to actually take on challenging content. Even worse, they will now have access to most, if not all future content that is normally locked for Paragon+, but they're not even required to beat the Grandmaster.

If missing out on rewards is what it takes to motivate players to actually progress, then that's a fair ask. To the Paragon's who cleared content to get there - keep clearing content. If you don't want to miss out on things you haven't earned, go and earn it like you've done before.

Thank you for the clarification! I understand and agree, just sometimes I wish there was some sort of differentiations between TB and Paragon. Not only there, but amongst the various progressions especially Cavalier and above.

Thank you also @Furrymoosen for your respectful disagreement with my original posting in here and giving such clear reason why. It is dialogue in the community like this which I wish there was more of. Wishing you well as you continue your own journey in the battlerealm. Curious where are you in regards Story Content, Act 9 correct and if so which chapter?

100% through all story content. Will likely have 9.3 down within the first 48 hours, depending on how much time I have to devote to it.
