    I think people are just over-reacting , maybe because they announced it WAY too early.
    The game was released by the end of 2014, 4*s were PRETTY DAMN rare. However after 2 years, in 2016, 5-stars were released, Same thing is happening now, almost 2 years have passed, time for the next big thing and that's 6-stars, in 2018.
    If they would've announced them in Jan 2018, people probably wouldn't think of it as such an absurd idea. But as kabam say, i guess it is better for us in a way. Think about it, 5-star shards became available to us when 5-stars got released (in quests and stuff) and it took us quite a lot time to gather them, but now since they're releasing them beforehand it'll work in our favor. Also, duping 5*s and getting lesser stuff than duping a 4* didn't make much sense anyways(same iso and no shards) , That's gonna change now.

    Also the new Grandmaster crystals will have 5* champs in them, so there will be many more dupes than there previously were @Hulksmasshh

    Do you think the drop rates of 5* is going to be high?

    Bro they can be bought for 200 units too. The whales are going to be thousands

    I agree with you there... expecting the whales will be milked on this as usual... Unless Grandmaster crystals are totally replacing PHC, it doesn't make sense

    Lol, of course not. I didn't quote on my initial comment (should have), but he referenced only obtaining 6* shards through duping 5* champs and stated how many 5* pulls he has earned. I'm simply saying there will be more opportunities to pull 5* moving forward.

    I'm still against the whole 6* idea as well, it has me feeling a little hopeless and that my progress was really all for naught.

    I have been playing for almost 2 years & have paid a good bit of $$, I cannot express how much this 6* idea infuriates me. I will be quitting unless they pull this scam down. There is a lot of ridiculous stuff in this game, but this is the last straw

    What about max sig 5* ? Any crystal planned?

    Not yet, but this is something that we are thinking about for the future.

    This was too rushed. People here struggle to get a 5* and r4 them, and kabam are already introducing 6*'s. This just makes the strong stronger and the weak weaker.

    And we thought 5* are the future lol.

    Here is the reality: at this present moment, ONLY ONE r4 5* is possible (act 4 100* rewards). Other t2a set came as compensation from version 12 issues. LOL remains the ONLY source of t2a.

    Don't forget the 10% of a T2A from each monthly quest.

    Working very hard to get a few 4/55 5*s and getting into an endgame alliance gave me such a sense of accomplishment. Now I feel that I am being set back and will have start all over again. My sense of accomplishment is gone. Can you please not add 6*s into the game? Or just make them NPC that you fight in quests?

    So I am unclear about the update to AQ rewards/Glory store for accessibility to rank up items. Has this occurred with the new season or do you guys have a timeframe of when you are going to be changing the placement/milestonecrewsrds?

    Dont forget it takes 4 of them to rank a 5* to R4. That's 40 monthly quests.

    I finished LOL and did not rank up a third 5 star!!!! That is smart! You choose how to play and how to use your resources. Why being so dramatic! No one forces you how to invest your stuff!

    I know 6*'s are a ways off, but they really need to spend more time fixing the bugs. It's relevant because I am still trying to build up my 4* roster. I have restarted an event quest several times today because I fight well for a while and then hit a bug that gets me destroyed. I refuse to spend more resources to keep compensating for these problems.

    Building a 5* seems out of reach for me for the foreseeable future. I can't imagine caring about a 6*. I think a lot more people would be psyched about 6*'s if they had a good roster of maxed out 5*'s and were ready for a new challenge. Most of us aren't even close to that. If my 4* roster is going to become virtually obsolete, I am hard pressed to find a reason to keep grinding. Having to start all over to build a 5* and 6* roster doesn't seem appealing in the least.

    Are you seriously pretending like you somehow new 6* were going to be announced this soon?

    Does this mean we will eventually see 5*'s of older champs that have been intentionally withheld?

    Wolverine
    Electro
    Doctor Strange
    Scarlet Witch
    Gamora
    Black Widow

    Why not instead of just adding 6* champs, give us the option to "prestige" a champ from 5* after we max him out? This would alleviate a lot of the issues that people are having with their champs being knocked down a notch and could also be added for 4* to 5* (since the resource bottleneck will still limit the champs we can "prestige" and then rank).

    For example, I get the cats needed to finally max my 5* Voodoo to 5* 5/65. Once this is done, I have the option to prestige this champ to 6* 1/1. Then I can proceed to rank him up again as far as I can as a 6*. The trade-off would be that I would obviously lose prestige and utility by moving him from 5/65 to 1/1 again, but I then have a 6* Voodoo with a (potentially) much higher ceiling.

    Thoughts?

    So, by my count (bear with me I am going to round up) we are 20 weeks away from the first week of January.

    I think it would be a good faith gesture to the players if you would implement a weekly login calendar that starts giving these 6 star shards. That way if we login and take some ownership of our account then we all feel like we have somewhat even footing when this thing goes live. If you stretch out the 10,000 6* shards needed for a crystal over the aforementioned 20 weeks then it is only 500 shards per week that you could distribute over each day.

    Please consider it.

    @Kabam Miike @Ad0ra_ It might create some goodwill.

    And the first champs in the crystal will be:
    Kamala Khan
    Spidergwen
    Groot
    Luke Cage
    Shehulk
