Rewards of Ascendant Crystal Arena must be rectified ASAP

Just went through Ascendant Crystal Arena this morning, take bunch of time, reached all 1.5M milestone.
When i spin the Final Flipping reward, Ascendant Crystal, it popped up 6 gorgeous 5000 ISOs...what heck are those ISO coming from...******, it took me 30 rounds, 10K arena coins, 30K gold coins to get this crystal, this out come can not even cover the cost.

This needs to be addressed, and needs to be rectified ASAP. this is the longest catalyst arena, taking these long time, cost these much coins, we no want NO those ISOs, we need a promising reward from this Ascendant crystal, otherwise, there will be no anyone no more going for this fantastic Arena ever again.

Hi There,

We're sorry to hear that you're disappointed with the rewards you received from the Ascendant Crystal. We're passing this on to the team. However, keep in mind that the Tier 4 Class Catalyst Crash arena's major rewards are in the Rank Rewards, and not the Milestones.

This is how this Arena was originally designed, but like I said, we're passing this sentiment on to the team.

I thought no one was going for that fantastic arena already

Dear Miike,
Thanks for the prompt reply. Pls kindly look into this issue, most of us are ascended into the 5 star era now.
The reward from the longest catalyst arena, shall also escalate to match with 5 star level. or you shall consider lower the bar.

Many thanks

The arena rewards for catalysts should all be beefed up - they literally haven't changed in years!

When these awards were set, it might have made sense to give rewards to the top 50 scorers in the world, but with the game as big as it is now, that's a crazy sized pool!

Also: you guys have invented T4CC shard crystals now. Why not look at putting some of them into the milestones/rank rewards?

Thanks for acknowledging the thread, though.

Agreed, the Ascendant crystal rewards are ridiculous. You can 100% chapter 4 acts and pull ISOs, that's literally all I have pulled from the (Greater) Ascendant crystal.

@Kabam Miike technically that arena event is called "Catalyst Clash - Class." It is not, as far as I'm aware of, a T4CC arena. The Catalyst Clash - Alpha arena has an alpha cat as the top milestone reward, with another alpha cat as a high rank reward. The Catalyst Clash - Basic arena has a basic t4 cat as the top milestone reward with another as a high rank reward. The Class event is the odd one out: it doesn't contain any class catalyst rewards in any of the milestones except for the Ascendant crystal which has a vanishingly small chance to award one.

Adding a full T4CC as a milestone reward is probably too high a reward for that milestone, but I think it would make more sense if the milestones contained actual class catalysts. I think there should be a T3C at one million, and at least T4CC fragment crystals at 1.5 million, with the Ascendant crystal as a bonus. Alternatively, the Ascendant crystal awarded at that milestone should drop at least a couple T4CC fragment crystals as the minimum reward.

Right now, the Catalyst Clash - Class arena event is the only one of its type where a player can do the arena and get all of the milestones and not receive *ANY* reward the event is actually named for.

People run this? I just thought it was there to waste your time in arenas.

I ran that arena one time. Doubt I'll ever run it again even if they beef up the rewards. Don't need more t4cc. But @DNA3000 is spot on. This arena makes no sense as currently constructed. What makes even less sense is anyone who puts up enough points to get a cat from rank. Anyone who has the ability to do that shouldn't need to. Maybe it's bots?

People grind arena for two different distinct reasons. The first obvious reason is to gain the milestone and rank rewards from a particular arena event. The second reason is to grind out battlechips for the associated rewards (arena crystals, which lead to gold and units among other things). The first set of rewards comes from the amount of points you earn, and everyone earns a different amount of points per round when grinding. I used to earn about 20k per round on average, and now that average is closer to 40k due to roster progression. The top grinders can easily earn 70k or more per round without using boosts. The people who earn more points per round need less rounds to gain the same milestone and rank rewards.

However, to a first order approximation everyone earns the same amount of battlechips per round for a given arena event. So a top grinder that wants event rewards can get them much easier than I can. But a top grinder that wants as many battlechips as me has to grind the same number of rounds as I do, no matter how quickly they can earn points. So I believe many top grinders blast through events like the class clash simply because they can, and because they have to grind out those rounds somewhere to keep earning those battlechips.

I ran that arena once in my 2 years of playing this game.

Lol people actually do that arena I stopped even doing the alpha and t4b arena as well
