180 tickets for Nightmare Raids is laughable in 2026

The rewards are behind by 2 generations (T5A and T7B)

The RNG chests doesn't even guarantee T4A as rewards (10x 5* champions anyone)

For the entry cost and amount of effort needed, I rather exchange old currencies for Essentia and buy whatever I want and save the time

It should be free at this point in the game but it's Kabam so we know why

Another mode that is obsolete

If Kabam wants to monetize Alliance Coliseum, why not have it every week for 3 days

Sell as many podium upgrades to players as Kabam wants

Crying over 180 raid tickets in 2026 is pretty sad too...

100% raid exploration should automatically pay back the entry price. 6.3k essentia is too much for a mode with useless rewards.

My account does not benefit an inch from Nightmare Raids rewards at this point even though 100% rewards will earn back the entry cost

I'm not spending essentia for this rubbish in 2026

I rather exchange the old currencies into essentia and buy 7* sig stones and T7B cat frags

I have to agree, it seems like the cost substantially outweighs the (RNG) rewards, these days.

If you are doing most of the content you don't need to buy 180 tickets for starters. The rewards also include esentia, rng crates, some cats, a 7* crystal and radiance.

4 times 1000 and 1500 units from chest

Also got my 7* ultron back then in raid chest.

Also radiance (depends your team's prestige

Well really don't care for 180 tickets

As popcorn write "If you are doing most of the content you don't need to buy 180 tickets for starters."

I also gotten 7* Ultron from NR and 1,500 units from RNG chest

But the units isn't guaranteed every time, sometimes I get 10x 5* champions and I wonder what for

My account doesn't grow an inch even with 100% rewards so it's not worth 180 tickets regardless whether I get free tickets from doing other content

180 tickets was acceptable when the mode was launched years ago and the rewards were premium

No word for radiance

I guess you don't care too

I want that Magic 7* and as I rewrite 180 raids tickets for a valiant player is not a buy stuff

if you don’t get the units in Nightmare Raids, you might as well have not bothered.
