Since the recent rewards of act 5.2 are lacking any awakening gems, Kabam, could you please offer more ways to obtain the 4* AND 5* gems? I have been lucky enough to pull an occasional featured hero but am not a whale and do not have the means to spend hundreds/thousands to dupe them. An awakening gem allows you to make more money off of us and helps your player base. Please consider this. Thanks

How exactly?
I can answer - I would buy the awakening gem, as well as most of my alliance, whereas all of us (except one) will not spend anything to dupe a featured. A $30 awakening gem deal will go far right now, especially with the signature stone in the expert grounds.
^^^This. Our alliance is the same way. As long as the 4* gem is $30 or less, Kabam would make many sales, now the 5* gem would be interesting depending on the price point. $50 or less, most would buy. $100 or more...probably not many.
Have you seen the previous deals for awakening gems? Do you not see that they are such a wanted item that kabam will not be basically giving them away at that price?
The thousands of forum threads on this one, and the old forum illustrate that. $30? L.M.F.A.O.
A price point of $30 for a 4* awakening gem crystal is right in line. The usefulness of 4*'s are waning, so this is a reasonable price. In this post alone we have examples of 2 alliances that would all purchase a deal such as the one described. Now last year, yes maybe the price would be higher, but now - $30 for a 1 in 6 chance to get the one you need...seems right to me.
So keep laughing, as I am suggesting a valid price point.
STEVE. START MILKING THE WHALES.
Exactly, it has happened.
My thought is they are going to lower the 5* crystal cost and they are trying to make as much money as possible while they still cost their current inflated amount. Once the cost of 5*s drop, the 4*s will be the new 3*s.
Like I initially said: wait until next year for that. 4* are still viable for all endgame content.
But you go ahead and ask for your 5* awakening gems for $50. You see? Kabam's set their economy high, and they're sticking with it.
My price suggestion was for a 4* awakening crystal, by itself for $30. This offer is for class specific and 40 signature stones ups its value. BUT $100 for this is too much!
So K1lltastic, I stand corrected, my price point greatly differed from Kabams...too bad, I would have purchased this offer for $50 or less.
Kabam, on 2nd though, I would like to withdraw my request for a 5* awakening gem. The cost, by comparison is WAY too steep, and seeing the offer and not having the funds to buy it would hurt more. Just being honest
I mean, in the coming years, since Kabam has stated plans 'up to and beyond 2020' for this game, I'll assume that 6*, and 7* champs are planned, and by then, we'll see the prices you're looking for.
I would love to see how many awakening gems they sold for $100 in this past offer. Probably not a lot Lol where as had it been a 30 dollar awakening gem, people may have bought MORE than one, based off of the sheer value of what you're paying for. But 100 bucks is just a slap in the face to the common player, not the 1% who drop stacks.
Pretty sure you have to look at it from Kabam's point of view, and not your own wallet, bud.
If they weren't making a billion dollars a year off their game, they would change the rates and prices, right? BUT, the prices are staying the same, right? That would imply that they have a large playerbase of PAYING PLAYERS who have no problem spending that large amount. It would hurt Kabam to sell these items for less when they can sell them for more.
