Addressing Mythic Crystal Issue (1250 Crystals instead of Shards)

I have no clue what happened but I just know it’s a right mess

There must be a new guy starting today. It is baffling Kabam made this mistake, its not like they have been doing this for years so I find this hard to believe it was an accident.

Also did people get perma banned for treasure island

So my view is that they shouldn’t ban anyone for something everyone had access to that was the company’s mistake.

That was not Kabam’s view with Mutant Treasure Island where they banned players who got a few extra T4CC. I don’t see how they don’t ban people here that opened more than 2-3 crystals and reset their account to before the crystals were opened based on past precedent.

They can even soften it by saying it’s not a ban as a punishment, it’s just the easiest way to freeze accounts to make resetting them to before the extra rewards easier.

The other option would be to send everyone the same amount of crystals which probably isn’t happening.

Anyone that opened 1250 Mythic Crystals should be banned.

Anyone that opened 1250 Mythic Crystals should be banned.

What if they opened 10? 50? 100?

Reminds me of the time they gave over a mill loyalty to some players by mistake

KnightOfTheRealm

Kabam messed up big time. Again.

ShuGokis

Don't open them. It was not intended it was meant to be 1250 shards not crystals.

I need to start playing right as the update goes live lol. Always seems like some broken free award happens.

the selector in one of the objective was bugged and instead of giving 1250 mythic crystal shards it gave 1250 mythic crystals

So now we have the broken arena express mode, insanely delayed July 4th prizes, and this. Fun times

Yeah good luck to kabam on fixing this.

Gotta be careful doing that. You can get banned for “exploiting a bug” if you get extra rewards from broken content.

One of the path rewards for the SQ was supposed to be 1250 mythic shards. They put it in as 1250 crystals. people jumped in, completed, and started opening and Kabam removed the solo event that awards entry tickets.

nope, that was just the objective that required eight wins with hero tagged champs

NegativePerson

Fixed in a minutes. Still no rewards from 7 days solo event xD
Kabam knocking in the bottom as usual

Ahhh thank you! That is even worse

They accidentally released 1250 Mythic Crystals as part of the Cavalier level objectives instead of 1250 Mythic Shards. So anyone Cav+ was temporarily able to gain 1250 Mythic crystals as a reward for winning 8 fights with hero champions.

Lol, Kabam is having the WORST week ever!!!

Still waiting on that express fix

We are investigating the situation and will get back to you with the actions we are gong to take. To be clear, the abuse of an exploitable bug is a bannable offense, and while we rarely have to take that route, it is something we've had to do in the past.

This isn’t what happened at all lmao they were a choice in the solo objective selector and kabam just fixed it from crystals to shards.

Drago_von_Drago

Lol, Kabam is having the WORST week ever!!!

Yeah, I feel bad for everyone there. The hits just keep coming for them.

DRTO

Just once I'd like to see new content be relased bug-free. Legit can't remember the last time that happened I think it's been every month this year something's gone wrong

Per Kabam Miike "We are investigating the situation and will get back to you with the actions we are gong to take. To be clear, the abuse of an exploitable bug is a bannable offense, and while we rarely have to take that route, it is something we've had to do in the past."

lmfao - Kabam Miike strikes again.

Claiming rewards is an "exploitable bug" what a joke.

Kabam! Come play our game and get punished for our mistakes! Pay for features that we'll break and not fix nearly as swiftly as patch out errors that benefit players!

I wonder if anyone got banned from prior months of exploitation, I haven’t seen anything.

Real footage of Kabam’s headquarters right now.

Someone’s definitely getting fired 🤣

Drago_von_Drago

Many did from the Mutant Treasure Island quest a few years ago.

Darkness275

They should just do a rolling reset.

Reset everyone's progress to before the EQ went live.
