Goblin Army - a failed event?

Marched kicked off with the ascension fever and some new events.
The one that troubles me more is the Goblin Army.
I think it's time for Kabam to remove the (un)luck out of the equation.

I've been comparing my score to other ally members and it's a shame to learn that for the same amount of effort we won't get the same results. At least 4 players are hitting the last level of the milestones without playing much. Long story short, they got the Crystal that provides at least 100 points.

In my account, I'm getting basically 10 points per crystal and, on a good day, 35 points per opening. As I did almost everything in BG I can only open two more crystals and that's it. I'm barely above 1100 points and very far from reaching upper milestones.

It's a bit frustrating.

There's going to be more crystal shards

HuskerCool

Are you sure they didn’t purchase some of the offers?

@HuskerCool They didn't. All F2P players. I'm the only occasional spender, actually.

I’ve opened every single free crystal and finished at exactly 800 points. You having over 1,000 points with more crystal still to go are doing better than you think. RNG is my daddy in this garbage event

That sounds like exactly where RNG would be expected to get you after opening all the free crystals -

The above was taken from my thread

However, we have since been informed (second-hand, bit better than nothing) that there will be more milestones coming…

So hopefully we can all get a little higher up the Goblin Event.

I think if you read the crystals though they have guaranteed greater goblin army crystal drops after so many crystals you open. You should get enough for all milestones with objectives coming on March 11th for all milestones

GroundedWisdom

It's really RNG as a factor. I have 18 Milestones left to hit and I'm over 900.

SummonerNR

doing the Side Quest will give you a bunch of shards (for 10 of those crystals ??)

But else, even though we may not have known WHEN, it did say Battlegrounds, Incursions, and other event(s). So at least, the Incursions would have been a tip-off (of which, that is the March 11)

Sorry, that was 14. I miscounted.

GroundedWisdom

To be totally honest, all it takes is a few Greater Goblins.

Oakenshield

After similarly bad luck to the rest of you, apparently I hit the jackpot today. 400 goblins, the title, and…

Sort of wish I had saved my luck for something else, but guess I’ll take a little less goblin grind.

Blue_Eyed_Thing

I ran all the objectives and ended up with 2150.

Onerednovember

Some will get a lot while others won't. I guess that a difference of a two milestones would be ok, but there is a bunch of players sitting around 1k points while others are getting the complete package…

Absolutely this isn't the real truth!

Amazing event!

Today I reached more than 750 with 2 Goblin Greater Crystals that gave me 350 points and got Magik 6 stars haha.

Also, dupped my Immortal Hulk and pulled Wasp 😍 6 stars

Thanks Kabam 🥳

This was 2 Crystals. RNG.

I'm at 1020. Can't even hit the 6* magik. It's brutal. 33% chance to get 10 pts but seem to get it every single time. Interesting. If I did that with dice. I'd be scared
