**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.
There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.

Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

DOUBLE VISION IN THE BATTLEREALM! September’s Event Quest: Amazing Fantasy!

edited September 2019 in General Discussion
Coming off of the heels of cataclysmic events of the Skrull Invasion of the Battlerealm: Under Siege, and the volatile Spider-Person chaos of Phantasmagoria, another menacing threat has been brewing within the Battlerealm. Under the noses of many within The Contest!

At the heart of this threat is a mysterious sorceress figure who goes by the name of Claire Voyant. She has been marauding the Battlerealm, using her mysterious magic with heinous intent. To what end? Aarkus, a dimensional being and Destroyer of Evil, with the help of Captain America (WWII), Vision and Black Widow come to you for help to investigate this new threat emerging within The Contest.

Are they able to stop the Sorceress Black Widow from achieving her goals? Can they figure out what her ultimate plan is for The Battlerealm? Find out in AMAZING FANTASY!

Materializing through the smoke, and the depths of hell into The Battlerealm are two new Champions!


Aarkus (The Vision), the Keeper of Law, is a dimensional being that is bent on eradicating The Battlerealm of evil. Drawing his power from Smokeworld, Aarkus can call upon the powers his homeworld feeds him. This ability allows him to manipulate the environment around him, appear at will through the smoke he generates, and if he must, conjure up the forces of his homeworld to create a bone chilling experience for those who dare to fight him. Evil doers, beware.

Claire Voyant, indeed the Black Widow, is a powerful sorceress who, blessed by Satan himself, has given her the powers to kill those whom she deems as evil using the many curses that she had been blessed with. With the use of these powers, Claire Voyant has the immunities some can only dream of having, and each passing second she fights, she gets stronger and stronger until she becomes an unstoppable force to be reckoned with.

Q&A


How long does this Quest run for?
This Quest will be starting on September 4th at 10:00AM PDT and will run until October 2nd at 10:00AM PDT. Those attempting Legends runs will have until 10 AM PDT on September 18th to 100% explore both Heroic and Master difficulties.

How do I get the Legends Title associated with Master Difficulty?
The Legends Title and rewards will be given to the 100 players who 100% explore HEROIC AND MASTER difficulties in this Event Quest the fastest.

This means that the players that completely explore Heroic and Master difficulty the fastest within the first 2 weeks of the Event being live will win the Title. More information on that can be found here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/27/time-attack-legends-program

In addition to this distinction, these first 100 will receive the following rewards:

    They're still looking at what they're going to do. As they said a couple months ago, Uncollected is trickier to readjust in terms of Rewards. They're looking at the possibility of adding Cavalier, so I assume the Rewards adjustment is also connected to that possibility. Keep in mind that the previous Difficulties have been around much longer.

    Well then let me make it less trickier for them. Change the following numbers:

    7,500x to 10,000x (5 star shards)
    2,500x to 4,000x (6 star shards)
    12,000x to 15,000x (T2 alpha shards)
    10x to 15x (5 star sig stones)
    9,000x to 12,000x (T5 basic frags)
    42,825x to 50,000x (gold)

    Unlike some people asking for an arm and a leg, these are very realistic numbers. Small changes, but huge gratitude from the community. See how easy that was.
    I wouldn't call those numbers realistic. It's not just a matter of adding more. You have to balance it with factors like the degree of challenge, accumulation over time, Rewards in other areas, the Meta, things of that nature. People may want more and they may even think their expectations are reasonable, but there are other factors to consider when increasing them.

    Oh buddy, I got news for you; uncollected has already upped the challenge since it first came out. When it launched, every section had only one path with those 'special buffs/debuffs,' such as aspect of war, buffet and so on. These days, every path but one has them. Simply put, 6 paths had them when it first launched, these days its 24 paths, and some uncollected even have mini bosses.
    Rosters and Champ Abilities have also grown with that.

    Right, because everyone who does uncollected has 6 stars Namor, Cull, and Nick Furry.

    You compared it to 2 years ago when it was introduced. People are most definitely more capable now than they were then. You don't need a 6* Cull, Namor, or Fury to do it. It hasn't become that difficult. The game has grown as well.

    My roster has grown but act 3 didn’t get harder. It’s the same difficulty... just easier because roster has grown, not other way around.

    UC should get easier as roster grows but you have past that threshold. In the beginning it was sort of trending that way. Lately been trending other way. Do I use items to 100% (outside refills)? Rarely but have to pay attention more. In other games as difficulties grows, regardless of you champions are stronger, rewards typically grow. The problem isn’t necessarily the nodes but new champs are getting more complicated / often with less counters etc which push rosters harder

    Unfortunately, that's not how it works. It has to grow as people progress because Rosters grow. So does the game. Uncollected is the highest level of EQ available. Which means there's a demographic of everything from newly-UC to Cavalier to accommodate. Now, it hasn't advanced beyond the point of not being doable. There have been select months that were more challenging than others, and the community is pretty good at pointing that out. Overall though, it's been fairly consistent. It hasn't become hard beyond what people are capable of. The problem now is people are outgrowing it, which is why we're suggesting a Cavaier. The more of a range of people, the harder it is to accomodate. Generally, it shouldn't become THAT much easier over time because that would become boring and monotonous. They switch it up to meet the growing needs and capabilities of Players.

    People really need to learn the difference between trolling and having an educated conversation.

    People are not suggesting cavalier because we've outgrown UC! What's the point of being Cavalier then? Other than buying crystals. Give me one reason.
    People ARE suggesting Cavalier because they've outgrown it. Every month, we have people who are at the End-Game level saying it's too easy. There's only so much they can increase the challenge level before they make it inaccessible for a large number of people. With adding Cavalier, the other part of that is they can look at regulating how hard UC is and what you can earn.
    Being Cavalier is another progress marker. It comes with everything being Cavalier comes with. Access to different Crystals, Special Offers, etc. It's only been around a short time. I'm willing to wager it's worth it for the people who fought to get it.
