EQ rewards changes. Better or not?

Please share your thoughts how updated EQ rewards are better or worse from your perspective.

I was in tier 7, now I am in tier 11.
I see that some rewards improved.
But some become smaller.

I am pretty sure I got 20k 6* statcast relic shards and opened 2 crystals after previous EQ completion.
It was one of the reasons why I paused EQ exploration and reached one more prestige tier.
Now it shows only 18.5k and 20k are rewarded for tier 12, which is more than 1k prestige higher.

Even though it seems now I will get more T7B fragments and other things, reduce of statcast relics shards drives me crazy.

I have nothing to say about the rewards since i had 0 expectation for them to change them.
I will say the classic difficulty still looks absolutely bonkers lmfao.
Kabam is a joke this month

They always have to take something away when they give more elsewhere because of the 'rewards budget'

awakening gem shards also look less. I am not 100% sure though of what I got in old iteration.

First Quest is more manageable for me, I'll see what the rest feels like.

You are right!

Previous time I got 3400 7* AG shards.

Now it is 3000. And 3400 shards are for tier higher.

So, it is one more reduce in rewards.

Remember that first quest is classic and not elder

I'm around 17000 prestige. 7* awakening shards did not change for me. I was getting 1400 if I completed Elder before and would get 1400 now. However, the change moved me from tier 1 to tier 3. The new tier 1 has noticably reduced rewards from the old.

I like the bump in T7B though, others is really negligible

You’re first post referenced classic difficulty and how it was still bonkers.

Looks like a circa. 25% reduction in both health and attack.

Classic Difficulty doesnt look to casual of play. And why do we have to do a completion run again?

I went from 8/15 to 12/19, which included some small sig stone additions from me to knock me to nearly 29.9K prestige. Managed to finish off Elder EQ with about 5 minutes to spare.

Classic wasn’t really hard for me the first time, but I’m laughing at jumping into 700K health pools and 15-16K attack out of the gate in the “revised EQ.”

I have zero idea what changed. At this point, I don’t really care. I will probably finish everything off again, but I’m really feeling the joy of playing MCoC turning into absolute Suckville.

Doing classic all over again is BS...

Hi @INFAMOUS0028 ,

Your 2nd (new) screenshot of the rewards is on Classic not Elder, take one of Elder and see what is the difference

a few hundred more catalyst fragments and shards and a few hundred less different catalyst fragments and shards. A slight bump down in health and attack points. That’s all.

I really like that you did a table comparison.

I should have done the same.
This way it really shows what is improved and what is not.

INFAMOUS0028

Lol I saw that, I change my post.

Awesome. We get to do classic again. Kabam with the non stop wins this month.

Awakening gem shards are less. Everything else is better. At least for my prestige level

So dumb

DrZola

Would have been a nice pro-player move just this once to dial the required Classic mode back another 20 to 30%.

It isn’t hard, it won’t require any items, but it will still eat away about an hour of my life for me to get to start the quest that offers decent rewards.

Sorry, help me out here. You quoted how classic was “bonkers”. Someone replied with how classic feels more manageable at which point you pivot and say remember the first is just classic and not elder.

At least try and be consistent.

Oh, and highly intelligent response by you- not that I was expecting much more but I live in hope that someone will surprise me one day.

I don’t see much of a difference. Used to be my favorite part of the game, but I still don’t even want to bother. Hoping it’s better next month. If it isn’t and Banquet sucks again, I might join the rest of my former alliance in quitting. 🫤

Same thing, different day. EQ is dead and they seem to have their eyes set on arena next after killing BGs with their energy changes. So many Ls this year.

Pirate_bae123

Not. Hot garbage as usual from kabam

I think you grossly misunderstood what we were saying.
