I understand what a lot of the bigger guys are talking about and they want their t2a’s back but a lot of us smaller players that wouldn’t have ranked champs up using t4cc’s could really use those back. I r5ed a 4* dorm for use specifically with my md for war defense. I also r3ed an unduped 5* dorm in preparation for using him on defense as well. Now, I’m not sure but I think I also used an awakening gem on that 4*, that I am much less worried about honesty. But the t4cc’s that I used on both dorms would never had been used if I had known at the time md would be changed. As more than a couple people have pointed out, we were told it “is working as intended” so we dealt with facing it in war and made it work while hoping ours would do the same damages to the guys on the other end. But saying this isn’t going to effect Dormammu on war defense is absolutely not going to be the case. The changes to dex and md will make him almost useless on defense. The last time I remembered rdts being heavily discussed it was said they would be class specific. Hell! Make them champ specific! Plenty of people ranked mordo, dorm Mephisto... and you know who they all are. I would gladly wait that much longer for you guys to sift through the data and hand out champ specific rdts for champs we ranked that’s usefulness is now going to be void. I’m sure some of these people will absolutely complete disagree with what I’m saying and that is absolutely alright. But I feel there are more of us on the upper and middle end of this game that will be so heavily effected by these changes just on their defense teams that it isn’t right not to do the right thing by them.

I reset my mastery ( I already unlocked this prior to Aug 31) but why can't I use it again?

You only say in the forum that we are not able to unlock further rank for this Mastery. You didn't say anything about we MUST NOT RESET our Mastery or else we can't use our previously unlocked MD till Sep 5.

Can we level them up again on Sep 5, or we are screwed not being able to use or test it until Sep 11 along with the new MD?

Update!!!!!!

I'm a little concerned with how my mystic champs will perform in war especially when that power gain is s huge bonus too alot of mystic champs. With it being decreased I assume that my mordo or dormmammu won't keep getting 2 or 3 kills each per war. I hope kabam makes this right with us players that are taking huge hits too there defense whether its class specific rdt or whatever it may come too. I do like the fact that we will be refunded what we have spent on md I have it at r5 and spent mostly units too unlock. Hopefully this will be rectified in a way that supports the player base and gives us a chance too make a decision too keep our champs the same or change them depending on how we as the player base see best fit for our roster.

I’m in the same boat. Did some LOL clearing during season break so had MD off. Went to turn it on again but since it was off August 31, I see you cleverly coded it to be “lvl 99” requirement so no one could get MD. But now I can’t even allocate my points back into it. @Kabam Miike can we have an update? I’m going to want to be able to test this to make an informed decision sept 11.

Thanks

I had and often used max MD. At the time it locked, 8/30/2018 I did not have it active as usually only for war defense lately but had hoped to finish Cabal quest with it for vodoo. I was not able to as it said I need summoner level 99 to do so.

2 questions-
1) even though I did not have me active I had it unlocked when you did your screenshot. Will I get full refund on units, etc used to purchase cores?
2) I was not able to finish Cabal quest because of this. Will I be provided the final rewards?

I assume the sum lvl 99 was to lock off md and there will be no new levels. Or will there???

rnr87

@robrasSMASH I'm gonna say you will still get your investment on the cores back however you accumulated them. As far as event quest rewards unless you earn them I doubt they will just give em too you lol.

Seriously ??? any update/reply ???

I agree with you, so many comments and not a single reply from Kabam representatives, what a shame of customer service

As is the case for most changes in the past, there is the RIGHT way to accommodate the players, and there is Kabam's way.

Doing what's RIGHT should not be hard... You make a change that affects 1/6 of the champs in the game, and you KNOW that players have ranked champs based on the MD Mastery. You should be allowing the players to rank those champs down.

Kabam's way is a needlessly complicated system of refund/ re-buy that will confuse some if not most, and will likely NOT get implemented correctly anyway (see current posts about the "lock").

As always in this game, we can hope for the best, but plan for the worst. No champ ability or mechanic in the game is ever set in stone.

I’m trying to use support tickets to get a response but am getting automated responses.

I have 4 points unlocked, but on August 31 had a setup where MD was not active. Now I can’t switch it back on because of this “summoner lvl 99” requirement others have mentioned.

On top of that one response said according to their system I never unlocked it which is ludicrous. I have YouTube videos of me going over my masteries as early as 14.0 which show MD at 4/5.

We need a moderator response. Obviously something is wrong. Anyone who unlocked it previously should be able to test it this week from Sept 5- Sept 11 even if you run multiple setups for different game modes and MD isn’t always up.

@Kabam Miike please refund gifted cores with units. You cannot gift cores with loyalty. Please refund the same currency used to purchase. Is this being considered?

Thatweirdguy

Has anbody done the math on how many units will be refunded if you bought all 5 levels with units? That info would be appreciated.

Also Kabam has really made a poor decision here as far as customer service goes. This is one of those very rare situations where Rank Down Tickets are appropriate. They of course should be class specific. I do not understand why they won't issue at least one mystic rank down ticket for each 4 & 5*. I do not think it is going to hurt the game balance. It just evens things up for people who used the very rare and valuable resources to rank up these now nerfed champs. I feel like this a no brainer from a customer service standpoint.

Please explain why you wouldn't give those out. I honestly do not understand why these would not be issued. i get that the champs themselves did not change but MD was the reason these champs were ranked up especially Dorm.

I think the cost to open all 5 levels of MD is 4650 units. The cost for each level basically doubles. 5+10+20+40+80=155 cores. They cost 30 units each, so 155×30=4650.

Thanks brother.

What refund value is given to the cores we found in daily quests? Will we just get mystic cores refunded for those?

Any cores found via quest or gifted will be refunded with loyalty.

@Kabam Miike any update on refunding players who had points in mystic dispersion prior to the mastery being locked but did not have points in mystic dispersion for various reasons when the mastery was locked?

What did I buy? MD.

You did not buy MD. You unlocked the right to use MD in an online game. You don't own anything. If you did, if they shut the game down tomorrow they would owe you a refund for the things you own that they were blocking you from accessing. This is not just true in MCOC, but true in every online game run by every game operator that runs online games.

Pure skill needs to be addressed it’s bee; useless since update 12.0

Im not sure if i understood it. So, I ve spent an awakening gem on dormamu cuz you change wars and he was a good defender with mystic dispersion. I rank up dormamu, unlock mystic dispersion until max and now you change everything without refound. Its clear, you couldnt careless your customers.

Farwey

Ill have 2 useless juggers, 2 useless dormamus, leveled for war, what should i do with them?

Schneider_92

Will you still be able to evade projectiles with dex? I remember when I didn't have dex I couldn't evade as example iron man sp1, will dexterity still allow you to be able to evade those moves?

Put them on the bench next to all the champs we've ranked that have been nerfed or obsoleted. It's a living game and things are going to change or get stale, devaluing your champs either way.

I was hoping everyone's concerns would be answered, yet I see nothing, this is shameful honestly. Whoever unlocked MD should get RDTs, simple as.

Bonze9

Mods? Where are you? This topic has seen many good points made and questions asked, and all we’ve got from you guys is crickets. Can we please get some of this “transparency” we were promised? We were all told the md/dex correlation was working as intended multiple times over a very long period. Now that we’ve ranked champs to take advantage of this “intended” game mechanism it’s being “fixed” and called a “bug”. Can we please get some kind of response to the fact that it seems like you are trying to create your own loophole here?
