Narrative

Join Beta Ray Bill as he fights his way through Arcade's final challenge for The Contest's Champions! Arcade has created a set of deadly virtual reality war zones that Bill and The Summoner will need to fight through if they're going to put an end to Arcade's reign of terror. Acquire Beta Ray 1-Up Entry Items by defeating opponents using Champions with either the #SagaAttacker or #SagaDefender tags. Use these Beta Ray 1-Ups to gain entry to the Beta Ray Battle Zone Quests and fight randomized opponents to claim the rewards these digital defenders guard! Be warned though, these quests update every 7 days, so you'll need to keep coming back to clear new zones and complete the rotating weekly Solo Objectives!

    Juste want to make sure, we can run 12 or 16 times this sidequest (I think it's 16, but one part say 12 and a bit further it's 16) ?

    Will the 2000 titan shards be attainable at day 1? Because that allows me to open another titan before this cycle ends.

    What time is the update coming out?

    It's hard to tell which rewards will be obtainable/claimable in *only* your threat level, and which will be obtainable for all levels below it as well.

    Like the actual side quest entry/paths, if you do threat level 5 you'd only get threat lvl 5 rewards, which makes sense.

    But does completing certain objectives by playing those modes and using certain champions fulfill objectives for lvl 5 as well as 4,3,2,1 for example "solo objective game changer"?

    Thx for all the clarification

    I love the auto complete for lower lvl so hopefully that’s included
  • UsagicassidyUsagicassidy Member Posts: 1,496 ★★★★
    Thanks for the clarification! Was definitely hoping this was one of the side quests where you could gain previous level rewards as well but oh well.

    Hey Kabam, they should do something with their new event, it seems unfair to me, these types of people who pay to quickly pass through this new content that they are going to release, practically only take advantage of the fact that they release new content to fill the bags of money in their own face
  • SegitoSegito Member Posts: 7
    For threat level 1 there is meta currency in the game changers solo objective , but not for threat level 5 of the same

    So my doubt is so we play threat level 5 side to get all 1,2,3,4,5 level rewards or do we get to only any of the one threat rewards

    There are too many things happening yet not clear how to go about doing them
    Kindly clarify

    the bad news in this time we do threat level as our progression level.

    That’s right there is against the TOS. So don’t do that’s

    So you just want them to make content easier?

    No.. But the rule of only being able to use a character once this mission.. and it being geared to 7 star R2s, and 6 star r5s

    Is quite ridiculous.. Only whales have that kind of roster
