Path of Giants

General Overview

The Path of Giants is a new game event, which is similar to Path of Valor

It’s a probably a 28 day long event same as Path of Valor, during which there are Daily Challenges and Weekly Challenges. This is not a Stage-based Event, unlike Challenge Events and Seasonal Events. It’s about completing Challenges in various parts of the game. There isn’t new playable World Map/Quest content.

Completing these Challenges will earn you Gaints Points, which unlock rewards.

Path of Giants has two sets of rewards: Free and Premium rewards. Premium rewards are unlocked when Giants Pass is activated — and the Giants requires purchase. (NOTE: The price of the Giants Pass is set to FREE in Beta, so I don’t know what it will cost. More on that below.)

Similarly to Path of Valor there are two different set of Passes: Giants Pass and Elite Giants Pass.

If you unlock a Milestone, you’ll get the Free reward (if any), whether you’ve purchased the Giants Pass or not. If you’ve purchased the Valor Pass, then you’ll ALSO get the Premium reward for that Milestone.

In-Game Tooltip about the Giants Passes

Giants Pass

Giants Pass gives you 500 Gems and 10 Aether Crystals, 10 Challenge Coins.

Elite Giants Pass

Elite Giants Pass gives you 2000 Gems, 10000 Giants Points, 30 Aether Crystals, 30 Challenge Coins and Giants Avatar Frame.

EXAMPLE Daily Challenges

I will not be able to provide a all Daily Challenges, as they are set to change in Beta every day, and possibly we will not see all of them.

Daily Challenges appear to have 6 active at once.

Each Daily Challenge rewards 75 Giants Points. You can complete some or all of them independently. You don’t have to complete all 6 of them to earn Giants Points.

Giants Path Rewards

Reminder: everyone is eligible for the Free rewards, whether they’ve purchased (Elite) Giants Pass or not. To get the Premium Giants Pass rewards, you must purchase (Elite) Giants Pass.

So people who purchase Giants Pass get BOTH the Premium and Free rewards. People who don’t purchase get ONLY the Free rewards.

Looking at the rewards I’m guessing the premium for this is going to be a lot more than POVs 9.99

My guess is 30$ and 100$ for elite pass

But where are the Giant heroes???
In case it was not clear, this is sarcasm

In all seriousness, I agree. This will probably be a $19.99 or $29.99 USD buy in for the premium rewards. Titan flasks, Epic Tomes, Titan Skulls… and 40 scrolls of alteration…definitely $29.99

3x alpha aethers and a golden emblems too, with plenty ofvgems. Definitely going to be $50 or more

We are asked in Beta to test this today without SG / Zynga telling us how much it’s going to cost as a “premium” or what rewards are in the final chests ….

So how would I know its value for your money or the rewards are appropriately scaled …

Crazy days …

@Staff_SGG …. All I ask is that you answer our questions when we ask in Beta and or the forum.

If you don’t know then you don’t know but for heaven’s sake say so …. It’s almost as ridiculous as the “missing” Soul Exchange debacle ….

Come on speak to us please …. This isn’t a matter of National Security…

My math on things… Whether it is worth buying… $1 per pull. Zero pulls… So for me… Just a pass. I acknowledge the stuff in it has value… For not for my style of play.

I simply won’t spend any more money on this game until SG revises its stance on nerfing our heroes! What’s the use of continuing to spend on a game that doesn’t respect the players, today they launch a hero to come with a nerf tomorrow, meanwhile the players lose all their investment and time in a game that is gone!

The Giant Chests will continue Small loot, I’m already seeing it. (Small loot being literally no different than the chests you get after completing PoV at Milestone 30+, including the Elite Valor Chests, which don’t give anything of equal value to that 9.99 price tag).

…it’s not another redundant event though, so I guess that’s fine? Y’all not making enough money in the first quarter?

You know, usually seeing this I would get an obligatory “well, some extra free stuff”, but these tasks might cause some serious burnout in the long term. Especially the raiding quests, just filling the chest twice a day can feel like a chore sometimes.

Assuming there are no changes to anything else, this is a big win for f2p as it’s more rewards.

If nothing else, I like some different challenges like this. The world map ones not so much.
