    Uncollected Monthly events and 5.4 completion/exploration are the two the come to mind.

    Technically, AW Season rewards if you qualify.

    If they currently award less points than an r4 5*. Why would this help the whales?

    if they fix this they better wait until AFTER this round of arena is done.

    The whales already taking advantage of this exploit and refreshing like crazy at a discounted rate. Keep it fair and fix it before the next round, not in the middle of arena.

    at some point the 6* will also be r4'd

    Then at some point, they can adjust it.

    6 Star dpxf is 12k prestige unduped. Interesting.

    There's no way to make this right. If they stop it now, players who abused this have an advantage. If they let it keep going, players who abused it have a head start to continue abusing it.

    The only way to make this fair is completely delay the Arena, reset scores, and run it next week instead. Otherwise, the integrity is broken.

    Well. For the first arena. And for a very important champ.

    Anyone with 3 6 stars is at an INSANE advantage.

    Be careful. It could become an exploit since it is now being looked into.

    How do I say this constructively ... please ensure there is more quality assurance as it is rather blatant this was not thoroughly tested. Thx

    It looks like they fixed the timing issue. My 6 star is now on a longer cool down. Can't see the unit cost because I have the stamina refills

    Well, is it considered an exploit? Should I play or not?
    I am not looking forward to be punished for just playing.

    Would be nice to get an update on this, if this is true. Sad the integrity of this arena already in shambles. People exploiting this should be reprimanded

    No, it was not an exploit, but it did give an unfair advantage to those who are grinding arena. Everyone who is asleep at the start of arena and is now waking up to play will have to spend more units per refresh and have more time on cooldown then people who were awake while it was bugged. Just another example of the poor decision making and poor execution by the Kabam game team

    Well, the arena started kind of 7 hours ago? So the main issue would be the price of the refresh and not the timer. They could figure out who refreshed their champions and take units from them. But again, doesn't feel like they are to blame for this, it is not their fault if this wasn't properly tested.

    I am worried by the latest post though... if people cannot use their stamina refills that will be expiring soon... well, they will probably not like this.

    It won’t be considered an exploit because there was no other way to recharge them. People would have recharged and played the same had the price been right. So they won’t do anything.

    Can't see either of those happening. To be honest, people would have likely Recharged whether it was 10 or 20 Units. Have to agree with Matt here. It was an unintended error, but not one that could be seen as an exploit. It was the same for anyone with a 6*.
