Iām not in beta but he seems to only consider the daily challenges in this calculation. There are also the valor challenges that last the full period of the path of valor. Iām guessing those allow ftp to hit the points needed to get to level 50.
Also, I donāt see anything that indicates you get additional challenges if you buy the passā¦
The one that @Checker stated are just the 3 ādaily challengesā. But there are several missions called āValor Challengesā each with 5 tiers (for example, Defeat Titans I-V or Defeat Heroes I-V where you need to defeat a certain number of titans or enemy heroes to gain valor points), which needs to be completed in the period of 50 days. Both the daily challenges and the valor challenges are open to all players.
The valor pass only effects the rewards that you get from reaching each node in the valor path. For example, node 50 has telescope and rings. It means the person with Valor pass will get both the telescope and the rings, but the F2P player will only get the rings. This applies to the rewards in every node.
Currently in beta, each of the daily challenges offer 125 VP (valor points), thus a total of 125 x 3 x 50 = 18750 VP just from completing these daily challenges. But the āValor Challengesā also gives a significant amount of VP for completing each tier. So that will also add up.
So, f2p should have the same options to get all the levels. But a crappy reward for all the work.
With those rewards in 50 days mystic vision gives better rewardā¦
Well, changing the bombs for a unfarmable 3* asc items is a good thing, but avatars instead of tokens? I was always thinking that avatars should be for sale for a people to express themselves in a game. Leave them for shop, really. When you give avatars for a tedious task like killing 2k drones - thatās one thing. Could be better, but still. But changing tokens for avatars - that benefit no one. Unless avatars will give you something of value, like +1% to each hero hp or +1% chance of getting that HoTM. BTW, Jean is for February and Telluria is for March. Does that possibly mean that we wonāt see Path of Valor till March?
I agree that it is the f2p peeps that are dropping out. I p2w and am considering it. Itās getting where itās breaking my budget. But thatās on me as I do have a choice. But I hate the thought of leaving the game because I canāt keep up.
Btw, I would suggest all F2P players to start saving their grey/silver tokens. There is a certain mission in the Valor Challenges which requires the player to summon a certain number of heroes in order to get the said valor points. Just the daily free summons wonāt cut it because troops donāt count towards it. So itās better to save all the grey tokens from now onwards, so that they can be used to complete this particular mission when necessary.
Note: This challenge requires a total of 96 Hero Summons. Given that the total odds of pulling any hero from the lowest summon portal is 66.6%, one would need around 150 pulls. We get one free pull everyday (so 50 in 50 days), so around 100 silver coins are needed for the rest.
If we start hoarding grey tokens how does that affect the VIP 2x summons?
If we check every day will the 2x summons still be the first summons available? Itās my understanding that if they arenāt collected they donāt accumulate?
So the earliest is probably at the 2nd half of this year thenā¦
I am getting more and more disillusioned with the current setup. Raiding, titan and AW day in day out.
We badly need a new challenges. Maybe turning merc will bring me fresh challenges due to the changing environment.
Out of bored, probably more AM and good legendary heroes so we have something to work on.
