Alliance Quest are not fun anymore.

I understand that Kabaam needed to shake things up with the game, and add something new in to keep us on our toes, but I have a putrid tast for the sentinels.

I’ve been playing this game for almost four years now, and yes I play daily. Spend a little money here and there, and really have enjoyed questing. Now though because of the sentinels, I despise AQ. It literally takes almost double the amount of hit to put one down, versus its synboid counterpart. I’ve been practicing for weeks to learn how to fight them, and I feel pretty well versed to go up against one now, but I still feel like they don’t take the correct damage, they fight like a pissed off Giant that can literally beat on you whenever they want, and they’re just generally awkward to fight. (Let’s not even go into the the fact we are all **** punching them the entire time).

I saw somewhere if I recall correctly that Kabaam Mike said they’re not that hard to fight. Well when you have all God tiered maxed out champions, then maybe that’s true, but for the rest of us that have a decent roster, they’re still difficult to fight. I felt a little insulted by his remarks. I’m not going throw my credit card at the game every single day to make it past them. Then I heard they nerfed them. I left they did, then they lied about it. They’re just as annoying to go up against as they were the first time.

In closing I feel that MCOC has taken all the fun out of AQ, and have tried to make it a cash grab. It should never take me 80 plus hits to take down a 5k or 6k sentinel with a maxed 5/50 duped level 99 champion that I outweigh and out muscle. This doesn’t make any sense. That or the distance the sentinels special one and special two move projects across the screen. I truly hate that if you block the first one or evade it, you still sometimes take damage, and the special two, even though you block it you can still take stacked incinerates from it.

Thank you so much Kabaam for ruining something I looked forward to, and making it something I despise to even want to do anymore.

    I left a 10 mil alliance because of this. I have decent champs that were good for AQ map 5, but sentaloids pushed me to quit. I hadn't spent any money in over 3 weeks on any potions until they introduced those money collecting garbage cans. Now I sit in an alliance and do nothing but arena and events trying to decide what to do and if I want to play this game anymore after playing for over 4 years....

    What's your starting prestige and ending prestige in AQ Nitro? The starting prestige for the alliance I was in was 5k and ending in 9k, and "not that hard" is an understatement at that level.

    Not sure what we started at but we ended a 9,989. Heres a fight against the "dreaded" skill sentinel. They arent that hard.

    Yeah 5* Angela at 9k, you shouldn't have a problem, I have only 1 R4 5* and that's Voodoo, rest are below 7k. So a little bit biased in your opinion with that R5 5* Angela....

    They're not that hard, and I don't have all the best champs. Hell, im not even that good. They're more predictable than the syms, and easier.

    It's obvious that these remarks weren't posted by an avid player. Those that play everyday and have been for years can easily say that this change in the game is about to lose the players that play for hours each day and spend their hard earned money on the game. This wasn't an issue until that money we spend still doesn't help. It shouldn't even come to that for those of us that have been playing for years and have champs 5/50 max Sig and still get ko'd by sents that are only 4k PI.

    I agree that AQ is not fun... Kabam has changed the strategy but the rewards in the middle of the season...so...I have officially will NOT be spending a dime on this game...ever again.

    I play on my Samsung S7 and iPhone 6s...I can't even block, evade or parry reliable. ...I feel like a total noob. ..I have been playing for 3 years plus as a casual gamer...

    aq will be a little better next week with these nerfs hopefully

    Sentinels aren’t that hard to fight. Pretty straightforward since they don’t sp3. And I bring She Hulk / Rocket / Angela for AQ, all 4* 5/50 just for fun. Starting prestige is 6.3k.

    agree totally with original poster - I have been playing over two years pretty avidly. This has taken a great alliance we were in and destroyed it. I have seen too many really good players leave with a bad taste in their mouth. I honestly don't think I will be continuing much longer as well. If kabam wants to **** **** us over that's fine. I will just take my self and the bit I spend elsewhere. I already left negative feedback on the apple store and changed my rating. Enough people do that and we will see what happens but I refuse to spend now more than ever.

    I have to agree that the energy requirements feel excessive to me. The most telling part is the fact there are so many angry posts during a rift event month, which usually tends to be a "happier month" on these forums. ("happier month" with the exception of those that would post/complain about what they got from the rifts, that is...lol)

    Not everyone has a prestige level of 6.3k, I'm at 3.9k and my alliance runs map 4. Kabam changed the strategy during the middle of the season. Except Kabam never updated the rewards. ..best option would be a rank down tickets ...so we can reshuffle our champs to the updated AQ.

    That's not bad, but they wouldn't be that hard with a high level Angela. I've actually been thinking about ranking mine up specifically for Sentinel fights actually. You defeated the Sentinel in 38 hits after exactly 20 analysis charges were built up. That's enough damage to not expose you to most of the scaling difficulty of the Sentinel, such as unblockable secondary effects or unblockable damage. It also made it less likely you would have to evade multiple SP2 attacks. That plus exploiting willpower on concussion on that fight makes it very manageable.

    Also, as an aside the hardest skill Sentinels are on the immunity path in stage two, not the ones up in stage three.

    You ruin the fun for alliance war now you've repeated it with alliance quest. At this point there's not much left for me to enjoy. On to the next game. ✌️
  • Lvernon15Lvernon15 Member Posts: 11,598 ★★★★★
    Can I just ask what champion is taking 80 hits to take out a 6k sentinel at 5-50
