6* abyss nexus is useful for a thronebreaker. But to have thronebreaker and valiant getting the same crystals, thus the same rewards (potentially) is crazy.
I wouldn't even mind them increasing the units required if they just let us know about that before cyber weekend, but they purposefully didn't so people would spend their units, be unprepared for banquet and have to buy units. This is just predatory business, not that this is something new in the mobile game market.
Yeh you’ve nailed it there, I worked on the assumption I’d need between 10-12k for the top milestones. 15k means some last minute arena grinding for the next two weeks that I could really do without
Let you know about what? The event that happens every year around Christmas time? I’m not a fan of the event but you’d have to be under a rock to not know it’s coming.
@cinforammi8543 It's not about the timeline; it's about the number of units needed to hit the last milestone. It was never as high as 15,000 units before. And not announcing this earlier is, in fact, "predatory business."
@@cinforammi8543 you’ve missed the point there completely. We all knew banquet was coming but when most players who have played a long time were assuming 10-12k would be enough for the top milestones we now see that its 15k. Some people would have spent on cyber weekend deals thinking I will keep 10k for banquet and now will need to grind again before the event ends to hit the top milestones. They could have said weeks ago what spend would be needed to hit all the milestones instead of just chucking an extra 3k on there and telling us two days before the event starts
Im happy going for the milestones this year, i grinded the units i will always grind more units so lets enjoy the gamble of these crystals and the event. There is value in the guaranteed rewards but lets face it we're all about the gamble in this game lol
-Valiant still don’t get their own crystals so the crystal is automatically less valuable for us, the highest progression in the game - Unit cost goes up every year but unit acquisition has been the same for years -Titan shared acquisition is piss poor And I can go on but atp I might just hold the units, even though there’s not much else to use them for besides revives I guess 2024 is an L year as a whole for Mcoc imo
The big upgrade was tiered crystals. More RNG based. But we shall see. Hoping the calendar is nice and the valiant gift is one of the six new champs. Something for everyone
I would be excited for this event if the SBC purchased with tokens counted for their full point amount. I bought quite a few dailies to stack up extra tokens that effectively hold a quarter of their value
personally i think the top milestone reward shouldnt be a 7 star isophene. From what i saw i dont really like her and i even dont think about playing her. A Nexus 7 Star or smth like that would have been wayyyy better.
They may have moved the units that used to be in the milestones to the login calendar. For me, things can look one way on paper and turn out to be completely different when it happens. I'm just gonna wait and see before I get annoyed.
The real question is what are the drop rate % on these items cuz I can imagine the T6B t5cc n t3a going to be the highest % drops which is really bad cuz we get these like butter now
Sure there's a few 6* only champs that are amazingly good considering that they're ONLY 6*'s, but that's like 6-10 of them. We're in the 7* meta where everyone has them, if you're paragon or valiant, a 6* nexus is half useless unless you need Human Torch, Kate Bishop, or a few other champs, but you probably already have almost all of those wanted, so they should either change the nexus to include ALL champs of a class (aside from maybe the current years), or at the very least increase the nexus to 20 champs. I'm only paragon and only need Kate, I haven't opened a nexus since probably last banquet event, that actually gave me a champ that I need/want. They're not worth the chase anymore unless you're fairly new or TB and under, so how can they be high level rewards? Kabam is being very stingy with the players whom are going to be spending a zillion units. Is the banquet going to give everyone something that they need? Absolutely, but it may only be in regards to awakening gems or a few higher end rank up materials. I can't imagine how annoyed the top 20 players are, mind you they all spend too much as it is, and this crap is because of the whales who continue to subsidize Kabam's stinginess and greed.
I think a lot of people are just looking at the milestones for unit value and forgetting about the value if the banquet crystals. They seem to have some good stuff in there, it will be RNG dependent but I’m more excited for those than the milestone rewards.
Honestly pretty mediocre. ill keep my 13k units to myself. Could literally get more than those resources except tier 4 alphas and the new items for a month of work.
What did you want more from it? Did expect R4 champs or what? 😂 I feel like people these days really just expect everything to come at once, as quick as possible, and as easy as possible. If you dont like it, dont spend. For the vast majority of people it is a good event if they spend units
Thats not how a mobile game works, especially if it has a gacha component added to it. You have to give it time and effort, not only one event and thats it, yoy are good for 2 yrs
@@boas69420 the worst part of this event is that all the good stuff is locked behind the milestones because the crystals themselves have horrible scaling with the shards and catalysts amounts. It goes 10%, 20% and then a full 7 star, titan, t4a. Because there are no middle ground drops, it means Kabam can justify putting the drop rates of the jackpot items so low that the average player isn't getting very consistent rewards from these crystals. If they made it only 25% and 50%, even removing the 100% drops for these crystals, it would still be much better than it currently is Also, the +2 Sig stone drop needs to go cause that is such shit value even for the floor of this crystal

My guy that’s the very first reward of banquet it’s fine how it is

Unlike the previous realm events there’s no doubt we will hit the final milestones and quick. These mega 🐋 are going to carry us there.
But you have to spend too for those milestones
They’re carrying themselves.
@@AyushGujjar0_0 yes but you also get good rewards.
@@Supersaiyanprime24 yes, that's what I'm saying. Only whales can't carry us because we have to spend too for those rewards.
Might be better to hold until next year's cyber weekend for (arguably) better value
Farmed & saved up all year as I always do, heading in with nearly 32k units. Let's rock & roll them SBC dice baby yeah! 😁
-Valiant still don’t get their own crystals so the crystal is automatically less valuable for us, the highest progression in the game
- Unit cost goes up every year but unit acquisition has been the same for years

Let's hope that 2025 will be better.
@@aaditkhan728 Lol if they can't do it for the grand anniversary what makes you believe they'll do it better the next time?
2 rank 3's and 2 awakening gems makes it worthwhile for me, everything else, and it will be a lot of else, will make for a great bonus.
41k unit, its 10 Birthday , from next year it will only be cyber my expenses of the year. Good milestone realm event
7:44, Compared to two years or even four years back, they lost a lot of revenue. This is I guess an attempt to recover...
Thanks for the breakdown KT , love you !

Hoping the calendar is nice and the valiant gift is one of the six new champs.
Something for everyone
I’m not spending using up those tickets I converted that’s about it
Which tickets do mean specifically?
@ banquet bundle tickets that I swapped out in the traders outpost to get the banquet tokens
I would be excited for this event if the SBC purchased with tokens counted for their full point amount. I bought quite a few dailies to stack up extra tokens that effectively hold a quarter of their value
Since kabam upped the unit price I'm not spending anything and will keep my 15k units. Thanks kabam greedy phucks
Kinda debating that too tbh
That'll show them. Such a tough guy I bet they are pissing themselves thinking about you not playing.
Only the lames would pay more instead of spending it on family for Christmas jackass 😂. Mommy and Daddy's money doesn't count
Now while you're spending on this ass event you're mommy will be giving me a Christmas present (wink wink) 😉
@@MNCards-m8z😂😂
personally i think the top milestone reward shouldnt be a 7 star isophene. From what i saw i dont really like her and i even dont think about playing her. A Nexus 7 Star or smth like that would have been wayyyy better.

im glad ididnt spend units on cyber so i have 30k units from arena, so i will gladly spend them on banquet
The only thing I care about is T4 alpha so I’m not sad yet about spending 20k units on cyber. I got nearly 4 new R3’s
The real question is what are the drop rate % on these items cuz I can imagine the T6B t5cc n t3a going to be the highest % drops which is really bad cuz we get these like butter now

Remember people, you don't HAVE to spend
I think a lot of people are just looking at the milestones for unit value and forgetting about the value if the banquet crystals. They seem to have some good stuff in there, it will be RNG dependent but I’m more excited for those than the milestone rewards.
Some people will be happy and others will be very disappointed with the RNG
Alliance rewards are complete trash not a single T4A
I might get to 10k will I get tier 3 alpha to rank up a couple of 7*
When will it's starts???... Today or 21 or 22???
Tomorrow Friday the 20th.
20th
I’m happy with cyber weekend. KABAM can stuff this. Mediocre at least
Same here!
Honestly pretty mediocre. ill keep my 13k units to myself. Could literally get more than those resources except tier 4 alphas and the new items for a month of work.
Kabam lover!! I can't believe you're defending this trash!!!
JK KT, good breakdown. Appreciate the maths and balanced perspective.
I think we gonna get better rewards in 9.2 exploration in next year than this banquet event 😅😅
9.2 is next month right?
DoubleHelix = goat
Do they want me to also pay them to use my bathroom?
150 units sounds about right, now that you mentioned it. 😂
No, just to use the toilet paper and to be able to flush. Washing your hands requires a grind with a lot of item usage though.
The apt analogy would actually be you using kabam's bathroom without paying them. But I'm sure you don't want to hear that.
I will not spend a single unit 😅
How to get 10k units without spending $400 before tomorrow 😭
Hello there!
Trash event.. atleast it was 10th anniversary....also 20k units to claim that Realm milestone 💩💩
What did you want more from it? Did expect R4 champs or what? 😂

Kabam gave 10 7* free. That's the price. They need to get some money back. So don't mind the change
it fn sucks they want us to spend 1600 on cyber then 20k units 3 weeks later aorund christmas its fucking untenible #godmod # im actaully pissed
I don’t get all the negative feedback… 15k units for a hard counter to serpent? That alone makes it decent as guaranteed value.
