I accidentally ran all the regular bounties before the elite bounties reset please help

Why wasn’t this properly explained they should all be timed lock if we are not supposed to run them all at once. This is an injustice.

Let's be real here. You intentionally did this just so you'd have something new to complain about didn't you?

Coolbum67

What do you mean, you did all the reg bounties, but it didn't give you all the other elite ones?

I'm asking because I have 6 of the reg ones done and have only got one of the epic front pages bounties, or whatever its called.

Yes. This is outrageous. Such an injustice shouldn’t be allowed to stand. In the history of mankind, I don’t believe we’ve ever seen as large an injustice as what has happened here. You should demand an apology. And recompense. And a letter from the King of the World.

I think you dumped your credibility by calling this an injustice but it is extremely poorly designed to be fair.

i’m confused because I’ve ran the regular or seven times and I’ve never got anything to unlock the elite ones. I thought those were coming next week.

Why is one of these side quests so confusing?

we’re getting the regular faster than the elites. You have to hold onto the regulars to be able to complete 4 to get the elite. An elite becomes available once a week. If you’ve used more than 4 basics already you won’t have enough to earn elite ones in the future.

I agree it should be locked to only giving us 4 basics a week to avoid this situation. Since the basics are for sale I assume this was designed to intentionally create this problem so more people would buy the bounty bundle for $29.99. If it’s not this then it’s just terribly planned. Neither option would surprise me at this point

What are you even talking about? You have to do regular bounties before you can do elite bounties? you need 3 regular runs before you can even claim an elite bounty… what is your complaint?

His alliance is over active. (My alliance is on key 3) They probably unlocked most bounty entry key... and then finish all of those.

3 keys/runs are needed to unlock eltie key each week.

According to him, he used all keys. Now he can't access elite bounty for the remaining three weeks.

Sure OP is special needs person. But The event is stupid in itself.

....

(I still hate the guy who thought of changing 4 entries a week to 2 entries twice a week. Bro you suck)

.....

Brace for compensation threads. They are coming in upcoming weeks when more people like op face this situation.

The elite bounty entries come from an event timed every 7 days. You can only earn 1 every 7 days, by doing 3 regular bounties. Meanwhile, you are limited to 15 TOTAL regular bounties during the 4 weeks of the event. Therefore, you need to save up 9 regular bounties and NOT do them too early. You can burn off 6 now, but after that, you need to hold them back and do 3 each within each subsequent 7-day period of the elite bounty event.

BeastDad

why does all this **** have to be so poorly designed?

JediJones77

This actually proves why they NEED to lock out claiming entry tickets in events week by week. The event should have everything after 4 keys locked out on a timer, so you can't claim it until week 2, 3 and 4. Or the "regular" bounty entries should have been a 7-day event just like they are for the elite bounty entries, instead of a long 28-day event. It really made no sense to have the regular and elite entries attached to two different timers. They had to either both be 28-day or 7-day events, matching each other, so that you can't overclear one while you're locked out of advancing on the other one.

The one time they don't time lock entries in like a year?! This is actually so sad its getting funny now, I was letting ally know today, eh guys don't screw this one up. Gotta do your MCOC homework every night or you get F in game.

SQ requires PhD level intelligence to play it properly

Manofjustice32

the point is it’s a dumb design intended to gaslight players into screwing up and kissing so they have to buy extra bounties. It’s ridiculous

Penzito

Oh look bounties for sale. 100% intentional that you would screw up and have to buy a few more.

Or make it so the elite bounties aren’t locked, just like the normal ones

Jazzthunder797

For this precise reason, I had alerted my alliance mates not to do all the regular bounties at once before the elite bounty missions can be unlocked during the next reset. It's so very easy to miss this logic.

The game has been becoming increasingly complicated off late. Looks like this is an intentional design by Kabam considering bounty entry keys are available for sale. Monetizing even the monthly side quest is baffling.

I read this several times. It's so complicated.

BeastDad

of course keys are now for sale 🙄

LordSmasher

Yes, I was wondering about this. The elite unlocks need a single event with timed claims. They stuffed it

_MAD_T1TAN_

Just hold on to 1 regular bounty Key.. you can fight the target boss to add points, but dont move forward to complete the rest of the path. Just reset after boss fight and you'll get the points and key back to redo the path/boss

Keys are for sale because you get big points for bounty fights in the relam event that has the bastion title attached to it.

Reptoid

To me it's baffling that after telling us numerous times they intend to make sidequests easier to understand, they always make them more complicated over time again.

I wish they'd stop making these sidequest and gave us a "Summer of suffering" type of fight each 2 weeks.

I wish people stop using "special needs" so callously as an insult to denigrate others. It's utterly insensitive and highly disparaging to the real special needs people. As someone having extended family with special needs kids, I know the struggle the kids and the parents go through every day.

Im not going to argue with you or anyone on the sensitive topic you speak of. I wish people realize, in the era of internet someone is bound to be offended, make sure it's not you. No one can PC everything they read on internet.

Wozzle007

I’ve been doing the regular bounties as they’ve been coming up to do them. Guessing I have screwed myself out of some of the elite runs. Oh joys. Guess it’s my fault for not doing all the mandated reading for the side quest.
