RNG on War Season Crystals is not good

Why do we need it? It's not like I will gamble units on it to get more. We all fought season, one guy gets 5k t2a, the other gets 50k.

The season 11 crystals have a huge swing built into it as well. Why? just why?

Yup 5 crystals with like 15k t2a not the worst but just not great for the effort

DrZola

It seems like prizes and rewards are usually the last thing to catch up. AI tweaks? Check! New nodes? Check! Updated rewards? Errm, hang on and give it a bit...

But this is true across so many of the game’s crystals.

I got 5k from 5, the variance is stupid, you could finish in like gold 3 and get a full t2a or finish in master and not even get 25%, each crystal should be changed to be 3k t2a and 1.5k t5b of guaranteed rewards

Main (5 crystals) - 28k T2A / 6k T5B

Alt 1 (5 crystals) - 9k T2A / 5k T5B

Alt 2 (5 crystals) - 11k T2A / 5k T5B

An ex alliance mate (2 crystals) - 44k T2A / 2k T5B

Yeah. A little too much variance. 😂

Yup 1 season I got a full t2a from 2 crystals this season I had 5 and got less then half of that

Yet another opening of the absolute minimum from these crystals... It just isn't any fun. Meanwhile others in my alliance pull enough to form a full t2a. There really is such a thing as too much RNG.

Higher floor, lower ceiling please.

Feels weird to call it RNG when my rewards have been guaranteed **** for 10 seasons.

Would love to understand why someone disagrees with your questions @Haji_Saab

Maybe they think it’s the wrong question? Or that you actually will gamble?!? Or the assertion that a huge swing is built in? Hmmm...

We get these threads at the end of every war season, the same thing will happen with this one as the previous 9.

Especially as season 10 was much harder then previous seasons it’s annoying at least we get to see the new individual rewards today

Petusko2811

Kabam should explain whats reason for random reward. Its only pissed of people and they dont have profit from it

This RNG system must go. I don't see any place for such a huge swing in rewards after a MONTH of hard work. The argument that RNG balances out in the long run is simply untenable in this context where the sample size for any individual player will never be large enough. This is different from say Map 7 crystals where a player who does map 7 consistently can conceivably build up a stash of 500 crystals over some time, and at that sort of sample size, we would expect rewards to somewhat even out.

When you are getting 5 or so AW season crystals every 6 weeks, the law of averages just won't apply.

There is no reason why a Gold tier player should be able to score more rewards than a Platinum tier player just because he got lucky on an opening.

Yeah these crystals are the biggest piece of trash kabam May have lol.

P3 and pulled 12k t2a and 5k t5b. Not worth the 20-25 potions I used in war. Moved down to a g2 alliance less effort prolly yield same result, no potions used and can get more t2a with that saved glory.

Definitely they should give crystal based on tier. For example Masters alliance will get better crystal than Platinum even if between those masters there are differences in rewards.

This makes sense too, as long as the floor from a master crystal is higher than the ceiling from a plat crystal, for instance.

I disagree, you are already getting more of them, I mean unless they give the exact same number of crystals, but even then their purpose of helping the lower tier people is completely lost.

Those crystals are the main reason we stopped spending in aw. It's all based on luck so 3 crystals can beat 5.....doesn't make sense why theres random rewards.

So that little bit of rewards, over the massive amount of other fixed rewards is the reason you stopped spending?

It’s not really a massive amount of fixed rewards though is it

relative to what you get out of those crystals, yes it is a massive amount. The lower in the tiers you getplat/gold1 ish the more valuable they are, but at the upper levels the random crystals are rally not that important in the totality of the rewards. Most of the issues around them come from jealousy.
