Kabam has said they want to incentivize two things. First, they want to incentivize alliances trying out a higher map with one BG to see if they can do it. So the first BG costs less than it would if the costs were equally distributed (25% vs 33%). Second, if the alliance can do it with two BGs they want to encourage the alliance to push to go all the way, so the incremental costs to do the third BG are less than if the costs were equally distributed.
Basically, Kabam wants to encourage trying out higher maps, and also wants to encourage moving up all the way to higher maps. So the first group is cheaper, but running two is less cost efficient than running all three.
So play it then. But that's not your issue is it? What you want is to play it and get the rewards but you want it to be easier to complete. Ultimately there will be alliances who run map 7 all week regardless of how tough that is. Its everyone's choice whether they want to compete against that or not. If you really want the new challenge then just play it on one or two days. If you cant co-ordinate enough to complete that then it's obviously not made for your alliance.
If Kabam is going to make all the content specifically designed to playable by someone, I would vote for me.
The reasoning makes sense. It just sucks for my alliance. We can run 6x5 in all three groups but we keep one group running 5x5 because we have good people who can't run map 6 with their current schedules. So we bite the bullet and run it in two groups. 30 minute timers and we'd be good to go lol
Thanks!
I think from Kabam's point of view this isn't problematic because under the old system you couldn't do this at all. Now you have the option to run only two groups of Map 6, but unfortunately it will cost 75% of Map 6 to get 67% of the rewards of Map 6.
It isn't *quite* as bad as it sounds, because that one Map 5 is discounted. So you're paying 75% of Map 6 and 25% of Map 5 to get 67% of the rewards of Map 6 and 33% of the rewards of Map 5. The Map 5 discount doesn't remotely offset the (relative) higher costs of Map 6 but it does offset them a little. It comes out to about 100k gold, 7600 loyalty, and 14k of BC per map that you are paying higher per day than if the costs were perfectly proportioned, based on the updated costs, if my back of the envelope calculations are correct.
Hey there, we're still looking into this at the moment but will let you all know once we have more information.
Awesome thanks, I'll keep checking!
Does the Ascendancy Buff effect only attackers or also the defenders? Sorry if I missed that info, but there's a lot here to process. Thanks.
I know you guys have taken this back to the team but I guess I'm not sure what there is to discuss. The chart posted clearly shows 8 days on the timer which is the same as the T2As. I myself bought all 5 with saved glory and now I'm locked out for 30+ days. This should be an easy sorry guys its the 8 days that we posted and we aren't sure why theres an error. If you are going to say it was a mistake and change the time period you need to refund the glory as it isn't what was advertised. It's just a little frustrating that it is taking so long for an answer when it should be a quick response that it is being fixed as it isn't working as intended. Hope to hear something soon but anyone who bought more should have their timers reset or else we are missing out on very important items.
Hope this was constructive and not seen as a rant but I am frustrated, not making it personal just want to know whats up already so I can plan accordingly.
Do Map 7 crystals reward the same amounts of T2AC/T4CC/T4BC as Map 6 crystals? Opening 10 Map 7 crystals today gave 3,905 T2AC shards, which is comparable to opening 10 Map 6 crystals. No big deal if Map 7 crystals are copies of Map 6 crystals + % chance for T5BC shards, Map 7 crystals' chance of rewarding T5BC shards are plenty incentive to run Map 7.
Small minis (UC and Emma) have about 40% less health and 5 times longer timer
He also has an aggressive regen node so it’s not easy to not time out in 3nin on days 3-5
Hey everyone!
Just a reminder that all Maps are FREE this series of Alliance Quests, including Map 7.
Additionally, if you're running Map 7 for the second time, remember that the paths will be about 50% the same, and 50% different, so be careful!
Lastly, there was an issue with Carnage in the previous version of Map 7 that caused him to award MANY more points than he should have. This issue will be fixed for this series of Alliance Quests and going forward, so you may earn less points than the first instance of Alliance Quests.
Every week so much work for that...
@Kabam DK Could we get an update on Map 7's global Counterstrike node bug of fury not displaying when players use dexterity? Won't be fun if RNG selects Counterstrike for this AQ cycle's global node.
Is that an old screenshot? T5BC shards have rest for my account.
It’s not an old screenshot. Seems to have reset for some people but others still have 34+ days. Here’s one I took a minute ago:
Weird, mine reset:
No, mine has been fixed. I bought 5 levels Day 1
Mine still says 34days but a few of my alliance mates has theirs refreshed and says 7days now
