I’ve held back from posting on this thread thus far, but just to point out here; this is why people call you a troll. You are baiting here. This isn’t constructive, it is purely to prod and poke at those who don’t like you.
Have you ever thought that maybe the reason people “jump on any issue you post” is because 1) you do the same to everyone else and 2) they actually disagree with what you say
A lot of other people manage to get a lot of 5* dupes, is that because they are luckier than you? Perhaps, in some case. Although what I think is more likely is that in many cases they are actually just playing more in the game. Note: I am 100% not getting at you or insulting you based on how much you play. I do want to make that clear, it’s ok to play the game at any level.
Now, the facts. You have, in another post on this thread, stated you have 19 5* right? That means you’ve opened 19 5* crystals, assuming no arena. This is still just under 20% chance to dupe a champion in your recent crystals. Those are not bad odds at all. Now, you may say “I’m still just unlucky”. And yes, perhaps so. But, how do others get more 5* dupes? You cannot change your odds of a dupe, all you can do is increase the number of opportunities.
The only advice anyone will give you to get dupes will be open more crystals. I’m sure you know all the places to get 5* from, Act 5, uncollected, master, heroic, arena etc etc. If not, there are lots of YouTube videos of how to get 5* shards.
Before you accuse me of shaming you for not playing as much or before you claim I’m not addressing your points. Very well, let me be very clear. I have not said you are a worse player or person for the fact you’ve had 19 5*. I have not belittled you based on your play schedule or amount, I am not being sarcastic when I say it is fine to play any level.
In regards to your points. No I do not want a class crystal nor do I think it’s beneficial to the game. When class crystals come out, class gems are essentially just generic gems. Why waste shards on a normal crystal when you have a mutant gem sitting unused and you could buy a mutant 5* crystal.
What I do think is better, is just a crystal with a smaller pool, therefore increasing the chance of a dupe. Chuck in several feature champs and hey presto you get the new 5* featured crystal. Just off the top of my head, Luke cage, gambit, venompool, moonknight are all in the feature. Plus each time you pull a new champ from the feature your odds for a dupe go up 1/24 instead of 1/110 (or however many there are in the basic). If you’re so bothered about a dupe instead of justgood champs, the extra 5k shards on a crystal with more chance for a dupe would be worth it right?
Failing that, or you listening to any of my points, go ahead, finish act 5 and you’ll get a couple of awakening gems.
As for the topic, I'm not talking about the Featured. I'm talking about Basic Champs. Spending extra Shards isn't really a solution. The suggestion was to separate by Class. It was an idea anyway. If anyone else has any other suggestions that would suit, I'm all ears.
Here's my suggestion: no to change the system. Basics are good and if you separate by class, awakening gems drop loads in value.
You can claim it wasn’t baiting, but it was hypocritical and I’m sure most others would agree that you were. Do not try to claim you aren’t responsible for others treating you as you have treated them. (See, those all-encompassing commanding statements just come across tacky dont they?)
Wait, you really don’t realise how silly that sounds do you? Have a crystal only of one class, but have it cost the same as a basic. Literally, what would be the point of a basic then? If there was a class crystal it would be at least 3 or four thousand shards more.
People have given suggestions that would suit, but you have ignored them and moaned that they’re trolling you (how you don’t see the irony I will never understand), all of which seems to suggest that “if anyone else has any suggestions that would suit, I’m all ears”, translated from GW to English is “say my idea is a good idea, or I will claim you are trolling and attacking me.”
That’s all RNG, whether you can comprehend hiprocisy or not. Usually people make angry posts after they’ve had a bad streak of RNG which looks like what happened here. It’s no different from people complaining on the forums that they keep pulling low-tier champs like spidergwen, she-hulk, etc which is met with the same response RNG is RNG. You might pull a dupe your next crystal or not til your next 10. Kabam has been introducing a ton more 5* shards than before, so you’ll be getting more chances vs the growing pool. It doesn’t hurt that the new champs recently have been awesome, so pulling someone recently added is likely a great pull.
If you just need a dupe so bad at this point, there are a good amount available through Act V, Labyrinth, and occasional offers. There’s no fundamental difference between a first time dupe and an awakening gem + stones, they are practically the same result minus extra shards/iso. Hope that answers all your questions.
First, it’s not off-topic just bc someone doesn’t whole-heartedly agree with you. Otherwise you are the bigggest violator of posting off-topic comments in this forum. Also, you aren’t a mod, so you don’t get to judge what is off topic or not constructive.
Second, if you want to have a higher champ at any dupe, just open the new featured crystals. You have a higher chance at getting and duping a hulkbuster or Kamala khan that you could then r4 than in the normal crystal.
It’s against the forum rules to impersonate a mod. It isn’t your job to deem comments not constructive or off topic.
You're missing the point of what I'm saying. It is different because people keep saying the Drop Rate is greater for "trash Champs". Which warrants saying it's just RNG. Literally out of context.
As for more Shards, that's not a solution to the issue I'm expressing, and they're not that much more available so as to make a difference. At least not for the people under the top 5%.
You just wrote a Novel on me and my character, and you're claiming it's me making things personal. Bye.
That's not what impersonating a Mod is. You've accused me of that over and over and you still don't know what that is. Moderation doesn't own the word constructive, and if someone isn't adding anything to my discussion, I can call it as it is. Are you going to comment on the actual topic, or just do the usual?
Where do i start with this post.
1) I never mentioned making it personal, I was talking about baiting. Please read my “novel” before you comment on it.
2) I hope you see the irony in commenting on how I wrote a lot, when you are nearing 10,000 forum posts. Perhaps if kabam transferred your posts into 5* shards you’d get a dupe.
3)Classic GW just baiting responses but not addressing the points I made.
4) do you realise how much like a troll you are acting? It’s very odd that you keep denying it. Maybe stop acting like one?
Since you didn’t respond to my post, let me emphasize this again: yes, it is the solution to the issue you are expressing. You haven’t opened that many 5 star crystals. For players who want them, the avenues to obtain shards are there and don’t cost anything but time and effort. There’s videos lately on YouTube explaining how easy it is to get a huge chunk of a five star crystals just by putting up some points in each arena and getting shards. The more 4 star crystals you open and dupe the more 5 star shards you get. If you’re not completing game content that gives 5 star shards like the monthly uncollected runs then you are choosing to perpetuate your dupe issue, because you have only opened 19 five star crystals total since they were introduced into the game. They ARE that much more available now. You are just not at the level you need in the game to open them at a frequency to dupe them easier. That’s literally the answer to your question.
The questions I asked you in my first post are pertinent to this topic and you didn’t even acknowledge or answer one of them, and continued to double down on this quote above while accusing others of trolling you. So I’m confused on what you thought the outcome of this post would be. The answers have been given to you. If you continue to spend your time arguing with players on this forum instead of doing arena and working to build your roster so you have a cycle of duping lower champs, getting max sig crystals, and therefore opening more five star crystals total, you are choosing to not increase your odds. It’s a self fulfilled prophecy: One hasn’t opened 20 five star crystals total yet, wants to dupe one of them, but isn’t choosing to increase their odds by building their account and roster, so time goes on and more champs continue to be added while they fall behind. The ball is entirely in your court to increase your odds, and if you choose not to do so, that’s not the fault of Kabam or RNG, it’s on you.
It was just an idea I saw on here before. A random Class would be a good idea as well. If anyone has any other suggestions in terms of making it easier I'm all ears.
I already did comment on the topic but you ignored my points both times
Any post with logical explanations or facts is ignored. Any direct reply is met with “people just like to attack me cause I’m so vulnerable” replies lol
The points have already been made. That is not what I'm asking. I asked how people felt about the increase in difficulty in acquiring 5* Dups and how they felt about Class Crystals. People can keep saying "More Shards, get Gems.", but that's already been said and acknowledged. That's still not a solution to what I'm presenting. It will get more and more difficult as more Champs are added, overall. Yes, you could pull back-to-back, but the chances decrease. 5*s are still somewhat rare, meaning they take alot more time to acquire than 4*s. That's a problem to have an issue with Awakening when so many Champs depend on it.
The comment wasn't ignored. It was lumped into other personal comments, and it's been said before.
You see, I was gonna make a comment similar to this, but you hit the nail square on the head
The irony is, you missed another point I made. You don’t want to spend more shards, “Spending more shards is not a solution”. But you assume a class crystal would be the same amount as a basic. Which removes the point of a basic.
You are assuming there is, indeed, a problem. You are assuming there has to be a solution other than what is already available in the game. The fact you are ignoring the solutions people have presented just shows that you are completely closed to anyone commenting anything other than I’m agreement with you.
I understand exactly the point you’re trying to make, it’s still all RNG related. The more new champs you continue to pull, the higher chance your next pull will be a dupe. You said you have 19 5*s which I’m sure you worked hard for but it’s not a whole lot. Pretty reasonable or even a bit unlucky to not have a dupe with 19, but again that’s RNG. The whole point of a dupe is to unlock a champion’s signature ability, which is accomplished the same through an awakening gem. There’s also arenas and FGMCs for players to “target” more specific champions or champion dupes. People will always get upset when RNG doesn’t go their way, doesn’t mean something is wrong with the system though.
Also there’s plenty more ways for the under top 5% to get more 5* shards than a year ago, you just need to know where to look. I’d recommend watching some YouTube guides.
I know the places to get Shards. They are more available, but not to the point that it solves. I'm aware it's RNG that is responsible for the roll. Clearly I know that. That's not going to change the fact that the pool in the Basic keeps growing, and Shards aren't so much more available as to solve that. Fact is, it's going to get harder and harder to Dup.
