Scrap Store Coming in Late January!

Hello Summoners!

Have you found yourself thinking about Rocket's Holiday Scraptacular and wondering, perhaps digitally in a forum, "Why not create a Scrap store instead of having us run this SQ repeatedly?" Well, you're in luck! We have heard you and we have answers.

The intention for this particular design was to bring back elements of a much beloved event from previous nostalgic years. However, the game has progressed in many ways since that time, and we have welcomed in a lot of new players who don't hold those same nostalgic ties.

Therefore, we have decided to alleviate this particular pain point by developing a Scrap Store, similar to what Summoners would have seen in previous monthly events. This will take time to develop and we are expecting it to be live in late January. The item contents will remain the same as what is currently found in the Side Quest and the progression division will remain the same. Your Scrap will remain in your inventory and will not expire until after the store closes.

This now gives you multiple options in your Scrap purchasing adventure. If you need the items now, you can spend your Scrap using the current method; or if you're not experiencing any time constraints, you will have a much more streamlined process in January!

    Did the original event have the 1* boss because it wasn't possible to have a path with no defenders on it?

    Whatever event that was, that was the funnest part of it, waiting to see how many hits on SW before she procs poison.

    Good news on the store, it might persuade me to run a few paths.

    so does each item in the store cost 50K for caviler+? since it costs 50K to get into rockets

    I would take this announcement with pinch of salt. Jax has history of critical misscommunications, watch out you dont get dissapointed!

    It is far more likely the gameteam forgot to adjust the code from the previous gifting event. And let Jax and Miike take the blame on the forums by telling us it was a miscommunication. I don`t know where you work. But generally the people with the least control or influence get to take the blame the most. If you do not believe in the thing you are trying to sell, you won`t sell it. And I for one am not buying the miscommunication explanation.
    Oh yeah, I assumed it was just a dev oopsie. And once it went live, there was no option to rollback. The comms team are just the messengers.

    Best part about this is having an extra month or so to use scrap to remedy my otherwise-crippling t4b shortage.

    So glad to hear this with scrap being in the Banquet crystals. Just please no limits on how many of each item you can buy.

    Thanks. I got the 500k scrap from a GBC crystal and was dreading doing that quest 10 more times.

    Guessing each item will have a purchase limit given this is their store track record? If not kudos to keeping the same open ended choice as running the quest paths endlessly.

    Glad to know this is coming and I shall see how much scrap I have then. Again glad to see Kabam hears us as a community and responds in such a positive manner.

    will it have the same price with no limit per item?
  • crogscrogs Member Posts: 777 ★★★
    1...as mentioned, in game communication...
    2. How about a simple replay button? That should t take gobs amount of time to do.

    After everyone’s been going through the tedious nonsense.

    As a 8-year player, I was not nostalgic :)

    The Scrap Store is fine. Ok, there is a dev and test time in order to be opened. But how long will it be available after its opening?

    The original was a choose your own path but the paths with the higher Rarity items were gated by requiring a minimum amount of scrap like Awakening gems requiring 100K in scrap and it still had a fight at the end but I think it was only a three star

    Any chance higher players could choose lower rewards, like the Black Iso market and other progression type stores? I know I would spend some scrap on T3B's, and I bet others would do so as well for ranking up lower star champs.
