What should happen now that kabam slipped up a little

As many already know, some players got an extra 10k shards from the boss rush quest due to an error that refreshed the challenge. What do you think kabam's next step should be?

Kabam already punished me for running it twice, pulled rocket twice in a row lol

Personally give everyone the 20k total then after that each run gets 2k shards to make it actually worth doing 6 times for titles that aren’t even bright blue 😩😩😂😂

Imo they should allow all people the ability to run it for rewards twice.

They **** up and many people got a extra 10,000 shards (me included) but that doesn’t mean it’s right to take them away, nor is it right to say “sorry sucks for you” to the people who did not do boss rush on the first day.

Bacically the ideal situation would be kabam tracks who got rewarded twice, let them be. find who has only run it once, and notify them that they can run it a second time if they wish to do so, as for the people who have never run it, program it so these people have the potential to run it twice. This way we are all on the same playing field.

Wow I just realized the brutal typos on my last post, but yeah I'm good whichever way they go. Woulda been cool to go for those extra shards but I'm still on run one ha.

I don't know what age everyone is, but there's something I just cannot get over. This game (like most games) is very much like real-life gambling. Some people bet the minimum and win 10x the amount of those who bet the maximum. It's the luck of the draw in more ways than one.

In the case of this 'glitched' 10,000 shards, is it really THAT big of a deal? It's come to the point where ANY instance where someone has an advantage over another, there is a slew of posts asking for 'compensation', 'punishment', 'reparations'. Like is this what it's come to in this game, where players will do WHATEVER it takes to overcome another just because THEY, in turn, didn't take 'advantage' of something so minute?

Its a competitive game and people want to play on a fair ground and people have invested time and money into it. Dont see how asking politely to handle this bug "is doing whatever it takes."

They should either take it all back, or re-release it so those that did it only once can get it twice. The quest never said you could get rewarded twice...
All the people that say do nothing at all are prob the ones that got it twice, so of course your going to want to keep it... So if your gonna let them keep it reset it to those that only did it once.

The simplest solution I can think of is to simply wait to the end of the event, and then datamine how many people have more than one title and only got 10k shards once. All those players get an additional 10k shards. That way everyone that did the event two or more times gets 20k, everyone who did it once gets their 10k, and everyone who doesn't do it at all is unaffected.

This addresses a subtle problem, and that is some players ran it six times on the first day. Those players would need to run it an additional time to get the second set of 10k shards if it is given as a bonus day. But if they were aware you'd be able to get more shards by running it on a successive day, it is more likely they would have saved a run for a future day. Bonus days force people who ran it six times on day one to run it an additional seventh time on the bonus day.

They should fix it and then do nothing, if you run it twice good luck if only once then too bad. This is no different than all the times people got multiple SA, AQ, AW rewards and kabam did nothing.

Would be great to hear an official word from kabam on this.

Yes, but they need to announce this as an option. Otherwise some people may be content with one title and not run it again, but would for 10K more shards.

I'm sorry, but if you were given rewards that weren't legit they should be taken back. All after the fact level up resources should be given back. I have no doubt that this post will piss off a lot of players.
And as for compensation for the players who have their awards taken back, they should get 6 months of free summoner sigil. And for the rest of us affected by the emergency maintenance down time get one free month of summoner sigil.
And for the coders-QA who keep releasing bugged content make them work overtime to fix their errors and only get paid straight time.

Lol, I know none of what I said will actually happen. And I know all too well that when you bring said issues-bugs to your team lead, supervisor they are the ones who need to be held accountable. That's why that earn more money. Blah, blah I'll shut up now

Leave both events open in both spots. If you finish both you get 20k. Itll be a nightmare to recover all items used in quest, dollars spent, rank up material, champ removal.

That said it will probably be nothing. Lifes not fair and move on.

If it matters to anyone I got OG Spidey yesterday and IP today. They can take back both. Wouldn't miss either of them.

Simple - they should let er'body be able to run it twice for rewards - and the rest of the times for titles.

I have people in my ally that ran it for the second time and got the additional 10k shards on top of what they got for running it yesterday.

Let er'body that did get the double rewards keep it ~ take some time to extrapolate that data .. on the last 2 days of the event, open up that running the event again will give the additional 10k shards ~ with er'body that had already received the second rewards being excluded from being able to do that end run for shards.

Compensation?? For what? Stop acting like a cry baby

MSRDLD

Nothing at all. Not like we got them for free. Had to beat the content and use potions or revives or boosts in some cases (mine).

People always wanting something for nothing. Smh.

I have only ran it once because i knew we werent supposed to get the shards more than that. I could easily run it again for the shards but i dont think its fair to reward ppl that went ahead and did it knowing it was a mistake and letting them keep the extra shards without letting others have a chance to earn them also. In a way this would penalize ppl for doing the right thing if they allow ppl to keep the extra rewards without letting everyone run it twice. Say whatever u want about me but i know running it again wouldnt be right unless kabam says its open for everyone. Either everyone should get to run it twice or they take back the champs/shards from the ppl that knowingly abused the system.

10,000 shards for everyone who already beat the challenge.
20,000 shards for everyone who hasn't.
Nothing for those who took advantage of the extra 10,000 shards.
It's pretty simple actually.

20,000 shards for people who haven’t done the event at all? What??? Why? So my alternate account who didn’t attempt this will log in and get 20,000 shards for doing absolutely nothing? Lol. What an idea!

Why do people care? Win some lose some. RNG pit anyway

Rougeknight87

Get it done or miss out. Truth 😁

Love the post at the bottom from @LeNoirFaineant..but I tend to agree with him so nothing new.

Think Kabam should not waste their time trying to fix it and just let everyone get 20k shards. They have enough bugs to fix that hurt the customer base already.

X_Scott

Where’s the option for players shouldn’t waste their time thinking about it?

Best suggestion I heard was leave as is and increase the rewards to 20k for people who haven’t completed it yet.

That's actually a great idea! After all, it evens the playing field

This does not even the playing field, that means some got more rewards for less work.

Just let everyone have the chance to run it twice for rewards. I got the extra shards without realizing it earlier becaus I was going for my second title. I didn't even realize I was in the wrong section when I went in. I'm not using the shards yet in case they decide they are going to take them back, but I'm sure there are plenty who, like me, didnt do the run again with the intent of taking advantage of a glitch, but rather because we are trying to just get other titles from it. When I got the additional shards, that's when I came here and realized what has been happening. But it seems to be a lot of hubbub overt a simple solution. Like someone else reckoned, reopen it in the other location, keep both, and let each one award 10k shards. Those that want to put the extra effort in and run it for the shards can.

Cliffordcan

Add it another 5 times so everyone gets 60k and all the titles
