    Rift crystals look much better than I expected and EQ rewards update, as small as it is, is also much appreciated. Semi-good job

    @AsterFreya13 did not update the app before claiming the login rewards for today? maybe the reason why your Coral Calendar is not up yet and but that calendar will surely appear in the next day reset

    Summoners!

    Atlantean Rifts are coming to the Contest from June 5th to July 3rd!

    Over the month, you can collect Atlantean Coral that you can use to open Stable and Unstable Atlantean Rifts by completing and exploring the Imperius Rex Event Quest on Normal to Uncollected Difficulty, achieving Rank and Milestone rewards in the Fantastic Four Champion Use Solo Event (don’t worry, there have been a lot of members of the Fantastic Four!), and in a special Login Calendar!

    Four Tiers of Rifts

    There are 4 Tiers of Atlantean Rifts, each with increasingly valuable rewards. A Tier 1 Atlantean Rift will include rewards such as Premium Hero Crystal Shards or Tier 2 Basic Catalyst Fragments, whereas a Tier 4 Atlantean Rift includes 6-Star Hero Crystal Shards or Tier 5 Basic Catalyst Fragments.

    You may remember that from a previous version of Rifts. But we’ve introduced something a little different this time. Each Tier of Rift has 2 different versions;

    Stable Atlantean Rifts have closer percentages and more predictable rewards, while Unstable Atlantean Rifts are more risky, with a lower base reward but a greater potential prize.

    Fantastic Four Champion Use Solo Events:

    Each day, there will be a 24 hour “Fantastic Four Champion Use” Event. These events will give you points for using any of your Champions, but will choose a specific Champion that has taken on the mantle of a Fantastic Four member in the past, or is an important part of the Fantastic Four universe (like their villains).

    Here’s the Point Breakdown:



    And here’s the list of potential Champions that could be chosen at Random Daily:

    Annihilus
    Ant-Man
    Black Panther
    Diablo
    Ghost Rider
    Human Torch
    Joe Fixit
    Luke Cage
    Medusa
    She-Hulk
    Spider-Man (Classic)
    Storm
    Thing
    Wolverine

    If you were to use the Specific Champion of the day, it would take less than 30 Fights to reach the Top Milestone that day.

    For those not familiar with Rifts:

    After you spend your Atlantean Coral to open an Atlantean Rift, you’ll have to enter a Random Portal and be transported to a mystery path! There, you can collect your reward before defeating enemies on your way out! When you open an Atlantean Rift, you’ll only have 1 Hour to defeat the final boss and collect your rewards, so make sure you can complete your Rift when you enter! If you quit or run out of time, all of your hard-earned rewards will be lost to the abyss!

    If you are having trouble completing higher Tier Rifts, Atlantean Crystals will be arriving in the Contest starting on June 19th, and running until July 10th. For the same cost of Atlantean Coral as entering an Atlantean Rift, you can choose to open an Atlantean Crystal to get guaranteed rewards.

    The rewards in both the Unstable and Stable Rifts will always be greater than if you open these Crystals, so only open one if you don’t think you can complete that difficulty!

    How Much Coral does it cost to Open a Rift?

    Opening a Rift Costs 10,000x Atlantean Coral of that Tier. Completing a Rift in Tiers 1-3 will reward you with 5,000x Coral for the next Tier Up. So, completing a Tier 1 Rift will give you your reward, and 5,000x Tier 2 Atlantean Coral.

    For those who have reached the level of Uncollected (by completing Act 5 Chapter 2 and Level 40+) or higher, 10,000x of the first three Tiers of Atlantean Coral can be directly exchanged for 5,000x Atlantean Coral of the next Tier through the Featured Tab in the Store. If you choose to do this direct exchange, keep in mind that you will ONLY receive the Atlantean Coral. This is intended for late-game players who want to save time and Energy at the expense of not receiving rewards for the lower Tier Rifts.

    What are the rewards for each Atlantean Rift?

    Here we go… the Good stuff!






    Remember! These are only around June 5th until July 3rd! Don't miss out!

    So..I got an inbox message with 10k Atlantean Coral 1 and I played Unstable rift tier 1. I got 750 phc shards...How is that possible? I mean, its better than the 500 phc crystals from the table, but I thought the 750 was in the stable rift. Paths were 500 phc, 750 phc and 1000 phc. Non of them had 2000phc shards. Whats goin on?
  • DNA3000DNA3000 Member, Guardian Posts: 19,301 Guardian
    So I decided to analyze all of the stable/unstable rift choices, similar to how I analyzed the tier 4 rift: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/comment/861112/#Comment_861112

    Just to summarize the math, assuming most people prefer champion shards (of any kind) to low level catalyst fragments, then for tier 1 and 2 the unstable rift generates better rewards on average (of course, standard caveat: no one individual is going to necessarily get the average). It comes down to 100.75 vs 84.5 T2B and 84.5 vs 71.5 T2C in favor of the stable crystal, but 362.5 vs 412.5 PHC in favor of the unstable rift tier 1. A similar story for tier 2: a little more cat frags (420 vs 280; 350 vs 245), but slightly more 3* shards (325 vs 350) for the unstable rift.

    The interesting one is rift 3. Here, the stable rift completely wins, with a caveat. The stable rift as 2340 vs 2160 T4B frags, 1980 vs 1980 T4CC frags (a tie), and 250 vs 162.5 4* shards (and identical sig stone value). The difference is the unstable rift has a 4* awakening gem 7.5% of the time. If a 4* awakening gem has value to you, the unstable tier 3 rift might make sense. But if it doesn't, like say for many players above a certain progress level, then the stable rift generates more rewards on average *and* has less variability in rolls (less chance to get bad luck).

    In other words, for players that can still use 5* awakening gems but don't value 4* awakening gems much, the best statistical strategy appears to be to go unstable tier 1, unstable tier 2, *stable* tier 3, and unstable tier 4. This strategy gives you fewer tier 2 and tier 3 catalyst fragments, more PHC, 3*, and 4* shards, and about the same amount of everything else but passes up on the 4* awakening gem.

    Assuming I've done the math right; I was working all night.
  • DNA3000DNA3000 Member, Guardian Posts: 19,301 Guardian
    Addendum: I skipped over discussing the 3* awakening gem in the tier 2 rift, because I was tired and I think that's a less interesting choice. Anyone who wants to analyze that choice for players that need 3* awakening gems, have at.

    Just look at the solo event details. Currently Thing is the featured champion.
  • ThunderThumperThunderThumper Member Posts: 18

  • ThunderThumperThunderThumper Member Posts: 18

  • ThunderThumperThunderThumper Member Posts: 18
    so since I dont have THING I lose automatically...lol
  • Spoonmanaron2Spoonmanaron2 Member Posts: 46
    When will the special Coral Calendar go away? From the looks of it, the calendar will not give the full 4 cycles before rifts close. Mine didn't appear till just now even though I updated previously.

    No you can still do it, you just don’t get bonus points. It’s just like any other hero use event. There’s a list of champs associated with the Fantastic Four. I think it’s just anyone associated with Fantastic Four or a villain of theirs.
  • ThunderThumperThunderThumper Member Posts: 18
    ok ....thanks villan....ill see if theres a list somewhere
  • V1PER1987V1PER1987 Member Posts: 3,474 ★★★★★

    In the past you would receive 5K of the currency for the next level up upon completion of a lower tier, which is still there, but the max tier has provided 500 5* shards for completion of the rift in the past. Has this been omitted intentionally?

    That's correct. The tier 4 rifts should be giving 5* shards.
