🧭 First Path of Valor Log and Discussion – Starts February 3

That is not at all convincing coming from a flaming Elena.

I wouldn’t mind if Valor Path is expensive; that just means it’s another bad deal like all of the other bad deals; no big deal. Simply won’t buy it then.

10 dollars is the absolute maximum for it to possibly be worth it IMO. But it really should be VIP or cheaper since it takes so much effort and time.

Are you sure elena is even a captain?

I’m thinking the price tag is coming in at about 15-19 US. Be my honest guesstimate. You’ll get your emblems and a few mats at a very discounted price ( as opposed to just buying deals). This is an extra “event” for quarterly income for SG and they want to appeal too F2p and C2p ( P2w they know wil buy so we’re not in market target). So, if they were smart $11.99 would be a great price for that target market where they would get some great response from C2p and it would actually get defended ( like the vip pass for value - if your going to spend). That’s my spiel on behave of the player base ( see, I’m not always an ■■■)

I know it lasts 50 days, but how frequent is it going to be? Is the intent that it will run quarterly?

I dont think that has been addressed yet

If it works as intended, I believe it’s coming as @Texas1970 mentioned, considering it’s duration

I’m curious what happens if a player buys in half way though the path. Do they unlock all the materials that they would have gotten if they had bought in on release day? So say I’m a very cheap to play player and wasnt sure if I could complete the path anyways, last day of the path comes, I have all the path cleared and I buy the full pass, do I get everything on the payed line? I plan on buying in the first day but just curious how it would work for other players thanks.

Yes, you can unlock the Premium Rewards you’ve earned at any time. You don’t have to buy Valor Pass in advance.

And welcome to the Forum!

From what we learned from Zephyr’s Beta Beat thread, it seems to operate quite a lot other games’ similar events: you get the rewards by milestone, you just miss the daily achievements you didn’t complete at the beginning.

The more tasks you complete, the further (and faster) you go unlocking rewards.

If SG is as smart as I think, they’ll open a way to “buy” unlocking rewards with gems (like the other games do)

Hey @Petri a lot of players are concerned the POV will cost too much and it’s just another way P2w can separate from C2p etc. So, I outlined a marketing strategy in above post to help out SG marketing team. We can all look like champs here. C2p gets a deal and you guys actually draw some money on a consistent quarterly basis from C2p that you normally wouldn’t get. Only way I’m seeing this work for both sides… cost is around $11 US

I’d like to put in my vote to keep it as Beta Bear…I want to see what Zeph’s Beta Bear thinks of things :slight_smile:

Well, ya’know, Thorne was a bad guy in season 1 so I’m not sure if I should listen to him :stuck_out_tongue:

@That_Dad if you just read the first post in these types of threads, it has pretty much all the information you’ll want. Or at least all the information we currently have.

I dont get it. A lot of people making assumptions and complaining about POV premium cost when it even hasnt been released yet

Fake news, that’s Commander Grey, but poor Thorne gets the rap :sob:

I think they might have borrowed some of the art

Not assumptions. Expectations. Like “I will buy the path IF it costs X, I will not buy it if it costs more than X”

I suggest you create a thread with a very powerful poll asking @zephyr1 to change it to the Beta Bear and even make a contest to have an illustration of said bear created by the community :joy:

We can use this space to speculate, can’t we?

SG team is checking this thread as we speak so we might sway the pricing (or die hoping) :slight_smile:
