Infinity Dungeons Discussion Thread

Summoners! We're really excited to announce the introduction of a brand new mode to The Contest! Introducing, Infinity Dungeons! Infinity Dungeons will be available for a limited time only, but are unlike anything you've seen in The Contest before. Read all about them here: http://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/63523/introducing-infinity-dungeons/

There's a lot of information to absorb, and you're likely going to have questions. This is the place to ask them!

@Kabam Miike said he was gonna get the prestige numbers though? So why do we have to it is live?

Also is there any news on the milestones.

He said that he will work to get the milestone information for you, not the prestige. Sorry for the confusion! And we're still working on it so please be patient. Thanks!

It is based on your Prestige. We don't want brand new summoners getting carried to 5-Star Champions way before they're ready for that level of progression!

I’d like to know the cutoffs as well. I’m waiting to rank up a champ right now, but if bringing my prestige up to 6k from 5.8k would make a difference then it would be nice to know

I'm gonna work on getting this information and some Milestone info for you guys. Sorry, I let that slip in the initial announcement because I focussed on explaining the mode.

I don't know. Sounded to me like he was going to get Prestige brackets AND Milestones. At least tell everyone WHY you can't or won't give us this info. Bad enough something is based off a number the game doesn't even give us.

Not exact prestige information, because that isn't visible in game, which is what is making this difficult. I'm looking for relative Top Teams, etc. I'm also still working on getting the Milestones Information.

Sorry for the delay guys. I'm still hoping I can do it for today, but it's looking like it might not be until tomorrow.

Not sure if you guys have ever answered this but why don't you put our prestige in our profiles, I know it's been asked for many many times before. It's a huge part of this game yet we have to rely on heroes like @mutamatt to work that you guys should be doing.

There are always threads popping up from newer players asking what prestige is an how do they find out theirs. I've even heard of alliances being led by very ill informed people trying to lower their alliance prestige by purposely not finishing AQ. Granted this was before the change to brackets but that just show how little some people know about prestige.

Actually, not killing Kang did lower prestige for the next day (and thus rest of that aq series) and for some alliances it made sense to make the next days of aq easier that way.

I used to have a second account to help a starter alliance and there we opened a second or third bg just to keep prestige in check (the alliance was around 17 members).

Hahahaha hahaha thanks for proving my point. The only way to lower alliance prestige is to replace members with high prestige for low prestige. Losing AQ's willnjiot lower your alliance prestige

You are wrong!

Losing doesn't lower your base prestige but it does lower the prestige bump from winning AQ .. that's what Gwendoline is talking about and what others were trying to do.

Not wrong at all as that was what was talking about in the first place, poorly informed people think they can lower their ally prestige by losing AQ's.

Please eleborate. Because a few hours ago you disrespectfully laughed at my comment saying I proved your point. However what I’m saying is correct. Someone comes in and tellsyou I’m correct and you seem to partly agree but still repeat your missinformed point.

Please let me know how you think prestige works, because I really think you’re not understanding it (and then wrongfully laughing at people that do).

No matter how many AQ's you lose next cycle you will start with the same ally prestige. Why do you think I said the only way to lower it is to replace higher prestige members with members with much lower prestige. This is going off topic, pm me if you wanna talk further

Yes, and during the cycle people don’t kill the final boss to lower prestige. How are you not understanding that?

A better way to phrase this would be "during the cycle people don't kill the final boss to avoid raising their prestige. However, their prestige would still raise, just not as much.

That’s not true either. This is only true if you also kill a boss.

If you open up 1 bg and don’t kill the boss, it drops. If you open 2 bg’s and don’t kill either of the bosses, it drops. If you start 3 bg’s and kill non of the bosses then it drops. If you kill 1 boss and leave 2 up then your prestige stays roughly the same (-10, +20, +50, depending on lots of kabam math that most likely has to do with your starting prestige). And here is what you probably mean: if you have 3 bg’s and kill two bosses but not the thrid, then prestige still goes up but less then it would have if you’d killed all 3.

Soooooooo it's saying event has ended for the dungeons. Already broken?

Dungeons will not be available until 4pm PST! Until then, this is the message that you will see whenever you try and "Go To Dungeons" from the new Social Tab in your Messages space.

@Kabam Miike still no pre-release word on milestones?

Kabam Miike

Hey All,

If you want to get a peak at Infinity Dungeons a few hours early, @DorkLessons has posted a first look video also starring @BrianGrant!

Take a look!

Very few details in foreign languages, it will be chaotic if you don't know english and cannot read the forum...

Ashraf359

It is 40 minuts to start of dungeons ?

BobsYourUnkle

So, now that this has gone live, is there any confirmation about what you need to be able to get the 5* crystals?

On my account, I have roughly 145k total PI, including 6 5* characters, but I only see the 3* and 4* crystals.

“We will also be including a small amount of Dungeons Items in a welcome message when Dungeons launches.”

Will that happen?

DarkestDestroyer

It’s gonna cost to recharge certain champs 3-4 times a day, that could be 280 units per champ, that’s 840 units x 3.

Over 2400 units a day if wanting to use the same
Champs.

Always a catch isn’t there 😂

Just lost 75% hp in a single battle due to 2x crashes in a row against CW Black Panther ...
Why is the health penalty system activated in these mode?

My room chat did not work in my second run for the entire time. That’s a problem if playing with someone you don’t talk to on another app.

RazorEdge49

Do you have to play with the same partner each time or can you rotate among your alliance.

Dr_Physico

Are there different milestone "settings" and what do they depend on?
Some colleagues have the fifth (last) milestone at 7500 points, while in my account the fifth is at 5000 points (and less dust, artifacts & gold).

Kniv7es

Since we can't see our prestige in game wouldn't it be more "fair" or even "smart" to let everyone buy the 5* crystals? except players who don't have/need them and maybe limit the number of crystals you can buy....Maybe just let uncollected players buy them?!?....or you are just using the same logic that made you think it was smart to send free 2 star crystals to "save the galaxy"?!?

How fast do you want everyone to leave this clown fiesta of a videogame?!?...Cause you are doing a great job towards that goal!!!

Nickname207

Concerning the brackets to get crystal, how do i move from a current bracket (which can only see 3* crystal) to a higher bracket?
Does it depend on my total rating? Announcement said "depends on my roster" but I have many 4 stars already but still only see 3* crystal from artifacts? I want to know what should I focus on. Thanks

DroidDoes

@Kabam Miike @Ad0ra_ or anyone else to shed some light on this? So earlier in this thread it was stated if you hit max milestones for every day of this event, you’d get enough Dark Artifacts to get the 5* Crystals three times. Each is 27,000 artifacts so that’s a grand total of 81,000. I did the math and by hitting all milestones, I would receive 1,950 Artifacts per day. As this ends on June 4th, making this a 40-day event, 1,950 x 40 = 78,000 which would mean at best we could only get it twice. Are any of my numbers or overall math wrong? If not, it does seem a bit of a letdown that we would be able to get that close without hitting the third crystal, as it’s my understanding we won’t be able to get the Dark Artifacts anywhere but the milestones. Please help!!

Pleas please please make this a permanent part of the game please

Just got mine a single level 1 revive and 2 single level 2 health

I’ve just had ago in the dungeons. I must say it feels good to do something different and this mode is great. I was able to play with my brother in the same room and like the way it works, can strategise between us and it slowly gets more challenging. And I can’t remember the last time this game ran so smoothly, haven’t got any lag while in arena, you fixed Bishop’s medium.
Good job!!

Can you make sure to post any details you have on this, over in the bugs section? Be sure to include all the details that our bug reporting template (stickied at the top) needs. We'll look into it!

You don't have to play with the same partner each time you play Dungeons!

Chatbhas always been broken randomly. It’s a serious issue in dungeons. I cannot see or send any chat. iPad, latest versions of whatever, no background apps.

There are brackets to the Milestones. More experienced players will see higher Milestone thresholds than players that do not have as strong Rosters.

I know this isn't what you'd like to hear, but this is done to ensure that we maintain an appropriate level of progress for players, and not to overload newer players with Champions and Items that they cannot use yet, or are too powerful for their current progression.

same problem here. also occured earlier in AQ/AW, where latest node clearances and messages didn't show up. but now in dungeons it really effects gameplay

Miike, can you confirm that the bracket with a top milestone of 7,500 points is the highest, or is there another bracket after that? If it is the highest, please see my post a few minutes ago with the breakdown of math for Dark Artifacts and not being able to reach a third 5* crystal as earlier mentioned

soooo you saying, a Level 60, Uncollected, 600k account with 5k+ prestige is a "not so experienced"??? what are the thresholds for the brackets, what do they depend on?

Mags

So first off, I like the dungeons.. a lot!
But what I don't like right off the bat, is the clunky, laggy, in game chat.
There's very little time to discuss your strategy and pick paths in the time allowed.. especially at higher levels where the fights last longer. So, the clunky chat makes it even more of a conundrum.

I think it would be awesome if you allowed players to 'mark' or highlight which links they would like their teammate to take out rather than trying to mess with the chat, or having to switch to outside chat program to discuss.
It would be awesome if I could tap the link and choose to highlight or mark, and have it visually glow red.. or green.. or whatever works.

Simple, quick, and efficient.
Thoughts?

Your numbers are not wrong, but one of ours is. The event will end on June 6th, not June 4th! So that means there are 42 days, and not 40. I will adjust the announcement post and @Kabam DK is fixing the in game message. Thank you for pointing this out to us!
