Fix backdraft intercepts already
Or acknowledge it as a 'bug' that was never intended from the start. It would however, I think, ruin a basic game mechanic that has been there for years now. To give some background info - the idea of a backdraft intercept has 2 kinds. First, where you wall bounce an enemy against the wall using a MLLL combo, back dash,…

About time for a 5* basic arena?
Its been 2 years since the last arena update, and I believe 3 years since we got the basic 4* arena. Hasn't the game progressed since then till the point where a 5* basic arena should be coming about now? Especially given the pivot recently to phase out 4*s, the majority of the player population is now needing specific 5*s…

Was enemy AI intentionally changed to make backdraft intercepts no longer workable?
Yes or no - we need a clear answer. While I can understand that it may take time to locate and replicate this bug (if it is a bug), it should be possible to tell instantly whether there was ever an intention to change the enemy AI. Let's solve this issue one step at a time. For a moderator's response please.

Phoenix incinerate not doing damage over time to Hulkbuster on 6.2.1
As per title - this is a bug unless I'm missing something. Took in phoenix against hulkbuster. Only nodes are (1) life cycle; (2) stun immunity; (3) defensive; (4) Explosive personality. None of them affect debuffs like incinerates. The incinerate debuffs are stacking, they just aren't ticking for damage over time. Kindly…

When did you guys first hear the term "iteming out"
Just wondering if you guys have realised that "iteming out" is a relatively recent term and phenomenon. Or is this just my experience? Personally, I never even heard that term used until some time like Season 3 of AW Seasons when the additional 5 mini bosses were added. Pretty sure I don't recall people "iteming out" in…

Act 6.2 Legends results: takeaways and lessons
So it seems as though in the latest Act 6.2 legends run, clearing the content in a couple of days was good enough to get within the top 100. I heard similar stories of people not even trying and making it for the 6.1 legends run. Just wondering what lessons and takeaways Kabam might have from this experience? In my view,…

What is your approach for next AW season on the new map without reward increase?
Do you think rewards justify the new difficulty on the new map? Are you interested in pushing hard on the new map just because it is new? Do you like to push hard in AW regardless of the rewards? Leave your votes! I'm curious to see what the community thinks!

Corvus cruelty buffs and fisticuffs
So the fisticuffs node prevents corvus from starting with any buffs, which includes Corvus Glaive's cruelty buffs. But if stay in the fight long enough, and have used up all of Corvus Glaive's glaive charges after 20 critical hits, you enter a cooldown phase, after which time his glaive charges return. My question is why…

So who is hoarding shards for the next 5* feature crystal with Namor?
Just out of curiosity, I'm sure there are many thinking like me.

Armour break + physical resistance interaction
Can someone explain how this works? So I am hitting this enemy for 7.7k, looking normal. I go ahead and place some armour breaks to increase my damage output and BAM look what happens.
-
Protective shielding node is broken
This node is in Uncollected difficulty quest 4 - the one with Yellowjacket as a boss. It reads: If the Defender would lose more than 4% health from a single source that damage is capped and the Protection shield shuts down for 8 seconds. The part in bold is not working as it should. I've tested this interaction and it is…

The "Cannot" beats "Always" concept is fundamentally flawed and dangerous
This sets a dangerous precedent for the game and I would like by this thread for the game team to clarify their intentions going forward. Ideally, this should not be the reasoning employed to explain the recent change to the interaction between guaranteed critical hits and glancing. By way of background, corvus used to…

Corvus armour break interaction with physical resistance
When is this interaction going to be fixed? It has been broken for months now. The interaction I am referring to is that when Corvus places an armour break on an opponent with a physical resistance node/buff, the damage that Corvus deals actually gets reduced. This makes no sense because armour break, if anything, should…

When can we get a legendary offensive bundle?
Seen a couple of legendary defensive bundles having been released now? Think it would be awesome for an opposite bundle to be released including champs like Corvus, Ghost, Domino, Omega Red, Void, Spiderman Stark, Infinity War Cap America, Symbiote Supreme etc. Don't offensive bundles help in AW as much as defensive…

Is there a reason the auto-fight AI has to be so inferior?
It just bugs me that even for simple fights the auto-fight AI may sometimes end up getting hit 30 times before it can even land one hit. I do not understand why it is programmed to be so inferior to the computer AI. Nobody would be using this for actually difficult fights anyway, so there cannot be a fear that improving…

Alliance prestige should be made visible in view of prestige matchmaking
What do you guys think? Seems fair if we are getting matched based on that number. Next logical step would be to remove war rating too of course.
-
Who remembers the last 3 bugs to be fixed?
Genuinely curious as per the title
-
Remove war rating already
It has been proven this past season to be utterly useless since AW matchmaking is now predominantly determined by alliance prestige. Each alliance's prestige should also be displayed on their alliance front page, instead of war rating, since that will tell prospective applicants what war difficulty to expect from that…
-
Why am I not matching alliances around my war rating?
I see many alliances around my war rating that are close to 5m alliance PI lower than my alliance, yet despite our very similar war rating, I can never seem to match them. Instead, we keep getting matched with alliances over 100 war rating above my own alliance war rating. I thought war rating was meant to be an indicator…

Does Kabam's delay in announcing crystals like dungeon crystals/featured crystals cause you to:
Just trying to see whether Kabam's stated intention in not making such announcements actually gels with what players will do in the situation where information is withheld from us.

Further corvus bugs
Corvus is doing reduced damage on Karnak. Also his sp2 is not draining the opponent's power when they reached max power.

Blade's heavy not connecting on 3rd hit
Just died in AQ because of this bug, had to spend 2 potions to heal back. Can I get compensation for the AI exploiting this bug against me?

Thanos input lag after sp3/stone activation
As per title, I have been noticing a significant input delay or lagged response right after doing an sp3, or thanos doing an sp3, or thanos changing his stones. On occassion this has come with my champ dashing straight into thanos after the cut-scene animation, resulting in my champ getting comboed to death immediately. My…

Masochism: Bug or misleading text?
It has been this way forever but it should be clarified - is masochism supposed to enable the enemy to shrug off more than 1 debuff at a time? The node description reads: "Every 7 seconds the next Debuff triggered on this Champion is immediately removed. Each time this effect triggers, they Regenerate 5% of their Max…

Mastery system revamp
Can we get an update on the mastery system soon please? It is embarrassingly outdated. To change my mastery by 1 point requires me to unequip the entire page of masteries, followed by re-equipping each and every single mastery and level painstakingly. We need to have the ability to have either pre-set mastery builds, or a…

Is AW Season 9 going to start on 25th April?
As per title. Feels like every week we have to ask if AW season is starting, by which time it is already less than 3 days' notice. I'm hoping Kabam will not suddenly drop the season on us simply because they think that the upcoming update will solve all the bugs. Please continue to keep your players updated.

What constitutes a "Known Issue"?
Talking with reference specifically to the thread here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/131519/22-1-known-issues#latest It purports to set out the list of known issues, but its seems to leave out certain matters that, to the best of my knowledge, have been acknowledged by mods here to be, at the…

Quake constantly dropping touch inputs since last update
As per title. I would be doing her heavy charging technique and all of a sudden the heavy doesn't register and she's standing there leaving me open. It is happening way too frequently for this to have been mistakes - I know my average consistency using her, and it has happened far too frequently since the recent patch.…

Stop making champs so complicated
This is an urgent plea to Kabam to listen up to your player base. People turn to games to destress and unwind. Yet nowadays more and more of the new champs being released require you to basically study the game in depth, way more than what most players are willing to do. There will be who say that such detailed analysis is…

Is AW season 9 going to start on time?
It was scheduled to start in 2 days or so, but just noticed all the master titles from last season got reset for another 29 days. Also in the context of all the unresolved bugs, AI changes, and general lagginess and performance issues. Please update.
