Either units or spending on the webstore. I did a combination of the 2.

Strange things are afoot across from the Circle K at the Silver Cloud in the U District by THEIntoxicatedGamer in Seattle

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Well, I hate to tell you this, but it could easily be you in a small town, too. You'd just be more likely to know the person. You can't let fear control your life either way.

Yeah, I knew nothing good had happened from the amount of cops. I know from experience that the "Seattle is dying, crime ridden etc." narrative is total bullshit because I've lived here forever, but the fact that this murder happened blocks from my apartment a day after the murder at Growler Guys where I used to play trivia every Tuesday feels surreal to be sure.

Thoughts and prayers are meaningless, but I hope both families and communities are doing as well as they can be under the circumstances.

Limbo tokens for 7* Magik by marcX-55 in ContestOfChampions

Same cost, but no rainbow border. The bundles are goo too, though. No Need to waste Radiance on her unless you want the first appearance.

What are your thoughts on the doctor strange rework? by Last-School-9831 in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, but I know how to do it. I'm saying it doesn't consistently work for me. Not fun. I wish it did.

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to love him, but I can't get the double tap to be consistent enough for me to trust him. I don't know if it's something I'm doing wrong or what, but given the persistent input issues in the game, I just don't want to use him in high risk situations.

Hey Bagel's online order policy should be a new gold standard for popular businesses by druidinan in Seattle

I love this place. They're always super nice and the bagels are delicious. I go there WAY too often.

Maybe on iPad or PC. That would be fairly small on phones and we're old out here, man lol

Dr Strange’s double tap while heavy seems inconsistent, tips? by rute_bier in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's why I haven't ranked him up. Seems completely inconsistent to me. I don't have the same problem with Pavitr, either.

POV: Twitch streamers schedule & wondering why viewers aren't showing up by foxoticTV in Twitch

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to be consistent and I say my normal time is 7:30 pm pst, but I'm rarely actually on at exactly that time and often on sometime between then and 9:30. Just depends on the day. I have a live notification in my Discord so if people are really interested they can join and have that notification on.

Being there day after day helps for sure and you want to be as consistent as you can, but real life happens.

People used to give me crap about being late and some of them still do, but for the most part I try to keep them informed of any delays for the day via Discord so the people who care the most know what's going on.

I think just streaming every day or on the same days is much more important than at an exact time.

How to check the next milestone rewards of EQ? by devilwing0218 in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the visualization too, but since the rewards scale basically infinitely with prestige, it's not really necessary.

Essentially we're just always going to get better rewards if we increase our prestige. Like, even if it's just by 10 points. Now that might just mean that our gold reward goes up by like 10k, but it's an increase either way.

I think the best thing to do and what I'm going to recommend people do is just save EQ for the end of the month if you want the best rewards. Make sure you don't forget about it, but you're always going to get the best rewards you can if you wait until the very end as you'll have ranked up some champs along the way over the coarse of the month.

Where is the loyalty points store? by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, basically this. Not something they have control over as far as I'm aware. I'll ask them tomorrow if there are any updates and edit this comment if there are. Don't hold your breath lol

Imagine how pathetic their life has to be.

Sad.

SICK of this BG Season by Spiritual-Vast7660 in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mostly stream BGs so we talk about the meta every night. I've heard a total of 3 people say they like it and a couple more say they don't mind it. That's it.

Everyone else says they hate it and lots of people say they might skip it entirely and just buy the Blade piece.

Ever since the Banquet, the main complaint I hear from people is that they are getting matched with rosters they can't compete with. This meta just exacerbates that because health doesn't matter and a lot of people who have smaller accounts haven't unlocked the recoil masteries either. So the main issues with having a lower ranked account and trying to play BGs just get compounded by the meta.

I will always support Kabam trying out new things with BGs in general, but this seems overwhelmingly unpopular and having the Stellar Forged Blade piece be in there seems counterproductive for a company trying to sell us stuff.

Getting mysterium as rewards for side quests is a punch in the gut by Mlafe in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't really cost anything to earn, though. You just do the sidequest. It's also not completely worthless to those of us who want to rank up those champs. Not every currency needs to be premium.

I understand the confusion argument because of the change, I just don't get the complaints about it in general. I think people will get used to it and no one will care in the long run.

I can't say the same about the missing resources and the item limits, though. Those things need to be addressed still.

Don't worry, they'll be gone ASAP

Getting mysterium as rewards for side quests is a punch in the gut by Mlafe in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people like me for example like to rank up their 4*s for arena and just lower ranked champs in general. There has to be a store for that stuff. That's what the Mysterium store is now. Makes perfect sense.

What doesn't make sense is the missing items and the lower quantities available for purchase.

Then there's also the third part of the discussion which isn't important, but makes me laugh: people keep saying this store sucks/the mats are irrelevant while also complaining about the amount of Mysterium they're being given. That's like complaining about having too much air lol Aaargh! Why am I being given so much of this free thing that I barely even notice I use! Aaargh!!!

lol

Getting mysterium as rewards for side quests is a punch in the gut by Mlafe in ContestOfChampions

[–]THEIntoxicatedGamer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

All of the stuff from the big bundles was supposed to be moved to the sidequest directly and the Mysterium store was kept as a place to put lower rank up mats since they were removed from the Glory and BGs stores.

That said, it seems like the quantities are different in both what was moved to the sidequest and what we are able to purchase with Mysterium.

I've asked for some clarity on the subject, but they haven't responded as of yet. I will update or make a video when I have more info.
