Kind of relieved the mission rewards are dogshit anyway

No sour grapes, had you actually put interesting and rewarding token purchases I might be tempted to slog through this shitfest of a gamemode to try and get them. Now I won't.

Thank you, Riot.

Then don't do the missions if you don't want to. The mode is great by itself, and is honestly really fun.

MelledoneusSep 8, 201711 votes

I would do it.

Free stuff is free. If I get it for free I'm going to go for it like the cheapskate I am.

CaveslothSep 8, 201710 votes

I'm a cheapskate as well, but the rewards aren't worth the time investment. It'd be easier just to grind out the IP for champ I actually want, than some RNG champ that'll prob give me something I'll never use.

I'm the guy who uses 5-6 stamina pots on FE Heroes on end to beat a damn Grand Hero Battle.

Time has become an illusion to my slowly degenerating mind.

Confirmed?

.....So are you a f2p? What braves did you get? I got roy and lucina at the moment.

MelledoneusSep 9, 20171 votes

Ike and Lucina. Lucina is meh, but Ike is the bane of everything blue. Especially since his weapon f*cks over Reinhardt. He's my Summoner Support unit because he's so damn good.

Personally, I've played too many RPGs to ever use items because "I might need this later", so I become a closet hoarder.

The only plausible excuse that people like you try to feel good with yourself because of it.

OnanThaManSep 8, 201710 votes

Ill agree to that. Once i saw the potential rewards killed any interest for me to try and complete the missions. I slog through this and get what? Icons. Really, they may as well of not bothered with rewards this time.

The rewards are a Ward Skin and a Mystery Champion.

Exactly. Dogshit.

All for the price of an incredibly frustrating, unfun, and unfair time sink that literally rewards single digit IP for your losses.

I almost raged how at the last 9/10 stage of onslaught we just got fucking wipied. Wtf was that. for what, a RANDOM champ permanent? fuck no, thanks

Git... gud...

My freinds and I had a fing blast last night.

I'm guessing you've never played any coop shooters?

Borderlands 2 and GTA online can be just as chaotic and fun.

Same with PUBG.

Why would I git gud though. It's not fun.

Taking my mechromancer through UVHM right now. There's no arena I can't solo handily. BL2 has nothing on Vel bullet storm levels. It's simply RNG.

OnanThaManSep 8, 20175 votes

My bad i should of made that clear, the missions themselves only give icons, the tokens can be used for a ward skin and a random champion, which means absolute shit for someone who owns all champions like myself.

Yeah, I don't care about random champs. I like the icons and ward skins I have. It's just meh. Why not a skin? The event is literally a skin promotion.

0.0 I feel as if people like you shouldn't get rewards at all. There used to be a time where there weren't even ways to get free skins outside of liking them on facebook/twitter. If you don't want to do the event, don't do it. Don't complain about how you wanted even more free skins. How greedy of you. And people call riot a greedy company... psh look at its fan base.

It was a suggestion. Because this is a skin promotion.

There are literally hundreds upon hundreds of skins. It costs nothing to recycle old ones out as a reward for hard missions.

and there are hundreds upon hundreds of people who work for riot and need to be paid. They should remove hex-tech and give everyone a raise in pay.

i have 200k ip. who the fuck needs blue essence when you have all champions anyways? unlocking champions is all its good for.

i like that the missions are challenging for a change, but they could have at least made it a random star guardian skin shard like they did back with the project skins.

Just realized that all you can do with it is unlocking champions, so people with all of them just have to wait till a new one comes out. It would've been nice if they did that, too. Like, ex: 4 for the ward, 4 for the champ perma, and 4 for a random SG skin shard.

Still pretty shitty for the difficulty of getting 5 premades on this gamemode and completing it a few times.

Malchior DagonSep 9, 20174 votes

As soon as the vel part wiped my group....Yeah I lost all interest in this gamemode.

MeddiSep 9, 20174 votes

SO TRUE! I'm not playing a featured mode for hours just to get 1 random champion or ward

JalkanSep 9, 20172 votes

Agreed. There should be literally no reason Gameplay is complaining about being "forced" to be social or that the quests are "too hard" because literally no one cares about ward skins.

KoKobotoSep 9, 20172 votes

Well. To each their own. =^)

He4rtkillerSep 9, 20172 votes

I don't mind the rewards being meh when we get a fun game mode like this. That said I would definitely like it more if the rewards were bigger and I think players would tryhard more if there are rewards that interest them more. And then my match history might not be all red. xD [zombie-brand-facepalm]

Titanium70Sep 9, 20171 votes

Nah.. missions that are hard kinda force low-level rewards. Because giving high rewards to the good players alone would be quite bad design and unfair.

An Icon and a Ward are fine - no low level will miss them and the guys capeable of beating all missions can still be happy. Good decision.

The only I don't really understand is the random champ.. but hey.. I guess that's because I own all anyway. Next new Champ for free so... yay I desperately need those IP.. not! x'D

SwaidSep 9, 20171 votes

I own all the champions and I have enough icons i don't use already, so I just haven't bothered.
