**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.
There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.

Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

    So to confirm, we won’t get any rewards until the event ends? So for AQ for example, we’re not getting any glory or map crystals day by day anymore?

    Also can you show some examples of non-AQ related events with peak milestones?

    I posted this in the wrong thread:
    Map 1 and 2 Conqueror Rewards:

    We also took this time to swap out the Conqueror and Exploration rewards for Maps 1 and 2. This way, less experienced Alliances that are not able to fully explore the map can still reap the benefits of a map that has no resource cost to enter, but grants you Gold and Battlechips.


    What does this exactly means? My alliance does map 2 every day, so no more gold and battleships?

    Hey @Kabam Miike these rewards are great and all, but with AW being the main focus - I think a lot of us would appreciate a lower cost of L3 and L4 alliance potions, please!
  • SiliyoSiliyo Posts: 1,374 ★★★★★
    Please lower the cost of L3 and L4 potions since AW is the focus now... especially with a long wait until the next AQ season.

    I like these changes, but shouldn't we be seeing t5b soon? It still feels like nothing has been done to change the staleness of AQ.
    I would suggest adding a skill factor to AQ.

    Maybe reducing the donations and adding a new map. and if score was calculated based on items used etc.

    You'll still get the Gold and Battlechips, but now instead of having to explore the Map 100% to get your Map 2 Crystal, you just have to take down the Boss. Formerly, you would get a small amount of Gold for beating Dormammu, and get the Crystal for fully Exploring the Map. We just switched those two around.

    Man! That's awesome. This is a positive change

    For that matter, why can alliance potions and revives not be obtained in AW?? Glory only comes from AQ and you didn’t lower the cost of those items....

    Are you reducing the loyalty cost for the higher maps? That's the true bottleneck as you can't just farm more loyalty like you can with gold and battle chips.
  • increase the tier 4 class catalyst plzzz

    Are we still stuck with the bored to death by 1000 papercuts (sentinels) eveywhere?
  • SiliyoSiliyo Posts: 1,374 ★★★★★
    Agreed @Kabam Miike the game team really has to be aware of the fact that high-end players are focused on AW now and with the focus being there, we need Alliance potions and revives available to us. Waiting 5 whole days to get our rewards does not seem to cut it. Please change this.

    This is correct. While you won't be collecting small rewards along the way anymore, you will get a much bigger payout at the end of the event.

    I will talk to the team about getting some Non-Alliance Quest examples, because we do have some of those coming too.

    I guess I'm a little confused as why you would take this away. By taking milestones away(in regards to alliance quest) you take away glory you get throughout the week. I'm curious as to why and how you thought this would benefit players?
  • NightCrackerNightCracker Posts: 157
    The first week of AQ will be the toughest with glory. After that it's just a matter of budgeting when you spend it but you will be getting more each AQ cycle.

    We need access to glory throughout AQ to buy potions! Why would you guys do this

    It would take just a bit more planning, but since we are getting more Glory, this shouldn't be an issue
  • GrubGrub Posts: 258 ★★★
    So zero changes to map 6 and the exorbitant costs to start it are still there. Gotcha. Great. So no real update at all. How about you reduce the map 6 costs now that your entire premise for keeping them high are gone.
  • hurricanthurricant Posts: 515 ★★★
    Also, just to clarify, I thought peak milestones were replacing rank rewards, but you're saying in AQ there will be peak milestones plus rank rewards?
