2015 rank up gems [Merged Threads]
This discussion has been closed.

To allow those that rushed through it to keep their newer than 2015 champs at rank 4 from the bugged gems, but to not allow those of us still working on it that same opportunity shows a blatant disregard for those who don't spend (or are that skilled, as I'm sure it's possible players are that good) and severely unbalances everything about The Contest you have built over the last four years.
You can't look at a rank 4 Domino and a rank 4 Storm as being remotely close as even. Not all rank 4 5* champions are equal.
The way I see it, you have three options:
1. Reverse those unfair rankups, no further steps needed (because bug exploitation is a violation of the ToS and can lead to bans, right?)
2. Allow the gems to be used on any champion.
3. Release all of the 2015 champions that do not have 5* variants, and give summoners class 5* Crystal's based on the gems they pull. (I.E. pulling a skill 3 -> 4 gem will also give you a 5* crystal with Classic Daredevil, Black Widow, and any other unreleased skill champion. Mystic would include Doctor Strange even though you gave him a 5* variant to buy in special crystals)
It's important to note that the 5* champions that would be released are NOT done behind a paywall like Electro, Abomination, and Doctor Strange were. They should be additions to the 5* basic and featured crystals. And to be blunt for even one second don't try to bring up how THAT would unbalance The Contest because let's be real: champions like Medusa and Symbiote Supreme are much more powerful than champions like Thor and Scarlet Witch ever were post 12.0.
Be smart about this Kabam. You've angered a lot of players and you need to make this right for everyone, not just people who spend real world money to finish your content as fast as possible.
It isn’t like the exploit for completing a path of a map and finding out that the rewards were given again. So, you keep running the path over and over. The puller knew what the gems were intended for.
They should not be banned, but reversal of the rank and a return of all gold and iso used is warranted to preserve the balance of the game.
WOW!!!!
it is clearly an exploit.
it was clearly stated by kabam the they are rank up gems for 2015 champs only.
those that used them incorrectly knew exactly what they were doing.
they would have tried it to see if it worked on someone and then told all their mates when it did.
IT WAS CLEARLY AN EXPLOIT.
they need to de-rank the champs that were incorrectly ranked.
THESE PEOPLE BROKE THE TOS AND EXPOITED A BUG.
they knew the gem was supposed to be 2015 only but used it on someone else anyway
So is every other time kabam banned people for something like this wrong to u as well?
Another example of how another person who is nowhere near..
“End game” knows nothing
If u read my post in first page from an end game player to an end game player.
the people who 100% this asap and ranked up non 2015 champions to rank up whatever champions they want.
Obvioisly this kind of content there is alot of resources involed to 100%
Again ur nowhere near where me or the other players around the top of master/platinum level to know that is a huge advantage in terms or resources and who/what to rank up.
Theres big difference being able to rank up a mutant champ from 2015 to a “any” mutant champ like iceman,domino,omega, etc.
The game stated the gems are suppose to be “2015” rank up gems, before the event even started so thats what they was suppose to be!!!
Anyways here a respond from dork lessons
And as he stated. If the rank ups suppose to be “2015” rank up gems then its suppose to be “2015” rank up gems.
Again those who completed and then kabam chose to let them keep them are totally unfair.

Why would i something thats restricted to 2015” “only” rank up gem while others had the luxury to rank up “any” champion ???
Let us have the same or reverse it.
There was another quest last year that kept giving t2a fragments and people spent money to keep completing to get an edge.
Both of those exploits got rolled back.
And yet this time, essentially 12 t2a are mistakenly given out to players who have spent to complete Back Issue 1 and not even a consideration of rolling back rank ups? I know Kabam has the technology to do so.
Top players are the ones who have finished this already.
Coincidentally, top players also know exactly what the rewards are and fully understand how those rewards work before they enter a quest. Hell, they already know how to exploit the game in several other ways and are allowed to do so daily.
Pretending like ignorance played any role in this is asinine. They simply took a chance. It was worth the VERY SMALL risk even if it was rolled back. Either a champ is deranked or they get lucky. You think that potentially losing one ranked champ matters when you already have 5 r5?
The message is clear: 99.9% of the player base doesn't matter. And this isn't even a spending thing. Ppl might have dropped $200 to clear it. Their accounts are monsters, mostly because they exploit the game every step of the way. Yeah, they're really good at the game too, but so are tons of others who just chose to not cheat.
This isn’t a spending thing. This isn’t protecting the whales.
I know whales that have dropped hundreds of thousands of dollars on this game over 3+ years that didn’t rush to 100% this and take advantage of the exploit because they were convinced kabam would either roll it back or ban them.
This is just scum players that exploit every aspect of the game in their quest for e-glory continuing to be scum, and kabam allowing them to get away with it.
I agree not the fault of pluaers who finished it early and were surprised to find that gen worked on all champs ..
But it still should be reversed ... Knowingly or unknowingly someone cannot be given advantage over others in the game .. whatever tier they are in ... That's the definition of the word "fair"...
Kabam said it was going to be 2015 champs only so ppl who used it on other champs shouldn't be surprised that their rank ups r gonna be reversed ..
Be fair to ur user base kabam ... Stuff like this open u up for lawsuits even ..
GET OVER IT. They get resources much faster than you, so those rank-ups were inevitable.
Im an end-game player and I dont care about this. I dont care about that quest all that much either
1. Make the ‘bug’ permanent for all players
2. Or reverse the rank ups.
Another example of Kabam making the wrong decisions that ultimately piss off the player community.
This will make me reconsider Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers.
Great job on doing exactly what you should NOT have done.
Cheers. Again.
