First, no communication that 6ss is required for lvl 23…so I decide to take Xpac up to 6ss to help the faction, strike 2 cause he’s broken and doesn’t work properly!!! Strike three the lack of care shown for the player base! I would hope you make this right some how some way!

More reasons to quit this game. Thanks for the headsup on 23s had to be 6 ss. Pathetic

So I just read that you have no intention on fixing the issue with HoF X-Pac with both gears?
I've played this game for years, spent rediulous amounts of money, and don't think I've ever been this upset by the incompetence.
I paid for X-Pac gear when he first came out. Bought it specifically hoping for a botch gem faction boss. Months later it's here, by the math I should be beating this thing T1 solo.....but no. Hyped up all week to help my faction just to realize my best character for this is worthless because I was stupid enough to pay for a gear. Never again.
Edit: So mad on many levels I forgot about the 6ss requirement. On top of my strongest option being limited, I have very little options to even try to help with the shield. Many in my faction do not have a 6ss of each style yet. Shoot a few don't even have a 6sb of each style.
I just don't get it sometimes. Why do we keep putting up with this?

this is just a punch in the face... come on Scopely, what about the "quality of the blog"? Would it be possible, to only get once a blog that is correct? Requiring 6SS is ridiculous -.-
Communications!!!!

Requiring a 6 star silver should have been in the blog, it should have been told to the content creator you had read the blog because that content creator would have pointed that out to everyone that was watching the stream. Please do not say "subject to change". Stop with that garbage. At this point, there is no point watching your twitch account or blog reveals because they are rarely, if ever correct anymore. I will no longer watch your streams. I hope others do the same. I have a lot more to say, but it wouldn't be considered "constructive".

another weekend and another example of why your blogs are just a waste of time to read. To add the 6ss requirement and not making people aware beforehand, is yet another crappy move on your part. Seriously what was wrong with announcing it in the blog and giving people time to prep?
on the plus side, due to this, it’ll be another weekend where I’ll be saving my money.

I don't even really where to begin. I've just gotten more and more frustrated when the faction boss event as a whole. Every weekend this event seems to create more and more of a gap not only between the top factions and lower factions. I get it. But it's creating a gap in the player base also. I get it not everyone should max everything. But now this weekend to be forced to take cards to 6ss at the start of the event without the faction portion that was there at one point and then for players to be punished for that card to not work after either spending, grinding, or a combination of both is a slap in the face to put it nicely.
Not everyone in even the top factions necessarily had/have the resources to just spend to take a specific card or all 4 types in some cases to 6ss. I mean it's card faction boss but no faction to even feel like your helping your faction.
I actually had grown to like this weekend for the team work that goes into the prep. But at the same time these types of weekends are starting to be the reason I despise opening the app, opening the portal, or even playing the game period.
I never complain one way or the other whether it's an advantage for the players or and advantage for the company but this one could have been resolved by just keeping the 6sb requirements regardless of being punished for having both Hof xpac gears.
Lastly, and maybe I'm wrong, but wasn't this event not to become monetized? Maybe the company should reevaluate that.

I don't know why you do this to yourself? You build up good will with the community and then you completely destroy it by ruining the the event.
You heads up about 6ss makes people feel like you pulled the rug out from under them. We spend all week getting ready for Boss Battle. You have CC's helping the community so they can just survive and get as many points as possible. I know you probably don't care and might even believe CC's don't mean nothing. But they do; they bring people together and that's what really keeps this game going.
Telling people the best card to use for boss battle HOF XPAC with 2 gears isn't working and to simply use someone else is completely rude. We paid for that gear to use in this game. When it's finally time to use it and you won't/can't fix it is completely reprehensible.
Fix the issues please and do right by the community.

The only people you are keeping happy (maybe) with your 6SS requirement snipe is the top 10 factions. Where they may have multiple 6SS characters, even then, they might not have one in each class. All the other players, maybe have 2 or 3 6SS...
Us smaller spenders might not be your short term money makers, but the us smaller spends will be more consistent and not "burn out".
I don't see your benefit here for pulling an overnight 6SS snipe on us.
And having key characters required for boss battle being broken this contest is a big fail...
1 -
if you are requiring a 6SS change for level 23, should at least have the characters that are required to win against the boss correctly.
KO - doing too much damage he heals the boss
X-pac - not working correctly with double gears
As for the loot odds, this is a horrible loot odd pull. I agree with Modfather, with a big spend, you should be able to guarantee the card. Spending a big sum on a weekend and not getting the card will burn anyone out. Even the whalest of whales.

I strongly believe if it was intended to need a card at 6*S to do level 23 it should have been listed that way in the blog. If it was missed in the blog you had 3 days to tells us via other avenues that it was going to be that way. The default of falling back on the blog is "subject to change" is getting old when it's this big of a miss step. As factions if we would have known this was intended we would of had time to prepare our group. Instead you give us the big middle finger once again.
Also speaking of preparing we worked all week going over what cards to use and planning this boss. Going off of what your content creators are telling us. Then when boss goes live HOF X-pac doesn't work properly if you have both gears?!? Then to be told yeah we know it's not working properly, but we're not going to fix it is completely frustrating. People spent resources to get him leveled to be able to use him. Now those with both gears are sitting here feeling helpless because they can't help their factions like they thought they would.
It's getting harder to support this game when things like this just keep happening.

Here we sit, another weekend event that is not delivering as promised. Again.
We say it over and over, putting *subject to change on the blog is a joke to everyone at this point. It's no longer an expectation it's a game in itself. Find out how the blog was inaccurate vs what goes live in-game.
To change the requirements of the highest level with zero notice is unfair to the players in every way. People would have managed their rosters differently this week if they knew they needed to have a 6ss in each category in order to max this event.
Then on top of that, to have a card in X-Pac that should be the best card for this battle be completely ineffective if he has both gears with apparently no chance of a fix is unacceptable.
We banged the drum for better communication a couple weeks ago and apparently you learned nothing at all, again, from that. So yet again we have to speak with our wallets. No spending anymore this weekend until we are provided with a working event.
In short. FIX IT.

Oof, where to even start.
To start, we keep having FACTION boss weekends with no FACTION competition. Strike one for the weekend.
The shard loot offers continue to be portal exclusives, thus continuing to lock players out of getting the card through any realistic means. Strike two.
And then boss. Oh god, the boss as a whole. For one, the old switcheroo to 6ss requirements. Personally, I was able to manage. But I mean, I'm in a top faction and many of my teammates don't have a 6ss at every class and don't really have the tokens and jazz to just do it on the fly. It would be one thing if y'all were transparent from the rip and just told us earlier this week. People could have planned for this or had it in mind. Meanwhile, I get the reality of people in my faction's voice chat at 4:01 PM wondering "Is this real? Am I seeing this right?" It completely deflates the morale of players no matter what realm of roster development or spending you're in.
And then just the pure functionality. So many people saw this boss as a slam dunk with some cards. But HoF X-Pac? Both gears? Broken. Heck, I had a few games with my Kevin Owens where on the opposite end of the spectrum, I did *so much* damage I healed the boss. No matter what way you wanna cut it, it's an absolute joke to have the functionality of game mechanics so, so, so busted.
I increasingly understand why this game is pushing more and more players away. I'm at a point where as long as the boss character is locked behind the portal, I have no reason to care, really. I can't get the card, which means I'll never have the CSS next month. This event has completely become a write-off for me and many others.
You are all actively giving people less of a reason to care. Less of a reason to spend. Most importantly, less of a reason to play.
Easily a contender for worst weekend event is a long, long, long time.

I agree with what everyone has stated so far. A complete joke is an understatement. Then we get a message in town hall stating this was meant for end game players? WTF does that even mean? We know you cater to the whales but Jesus...get a grip guys. I have never seen a company SO FAR out of touch with their player base. Quite frankly I am embarrassed for you. I cannot wait to see which lame moderator comments on this thread with a bs excuse, or Firpo's useless self.

I always seems it a 1step forward 2 steps back when it comes to this game . You just got a ton of credit for the Bray Funk situation to now just throwing it away due to a lack.of communication. The requirements should be changed back to 6sb or the point differences sent out as a compromise due to lack of communication and there show be no reason the paying for items for a ss stops you from fully using said ss in any game mode
1 -
After 6 years, why can you not do an event with proper communication and proper QA?
1 -
With yet another added to the list what more can people say other than
BRUH…
you require 6ss for the first time but it’s conveniently left out.
this new ownership needs to go back to the drawing board on budget for quality assurance and reallocate some things.
it’s beyond sad and moving in the comical direction. Your worth how much now?

This is why none of the content creators want to read the blog live anymore. Get yourself a competent person to write the blogs right. I’m sure you could find a handful here that would do it for way less than what you’re paying “whoever” is currently doing it. Could probably fix a few issues by doing this. Maybe Eric is available. A surprise talent up with no faction event is even more trash. Get a clue please.

please either take off the superstar rarity requirements or make it 6ss and or 6sb if you insist on having superstars rarity requirement but i feel like something have to go during the next boss battle because 6ss for level 23 is ridiculous either get rid of boss battles or superstars rarity requirement please faction boss isn't about teamwork anymore

"Subject to change" strikes again. Being f2p gave me absolutely no chance to get 4 level 23's done. Catering to the top spending faction will only get you so far $copely. It's about time you start thinking about the lower players and factions!

I'm glad I decided to skip this boss battle..I see I made the right choice.I will do the tourneys and be content for the weekend

I have read some of the comments above, but stopped to post my own thoughts on “The Ministry of Darkness” blog post created by Scopely on August 24, 2023.
There is NO “Subject to Change” clause to hide behind on this massive snafu!
There’s an intro; check
Schedule section; check
Available Shards section; check
Faction Boss section; check
- it is inside this Faction Boss section the blog lists the boss HP by level and the rarity required per level. Level 23 clearly shows 6SB
Then…
Solo Contest section; check
- Only in THIS SECTION, once you click to ‘see more’ is there a text, numbers, and dates are subject to change notation.
Then…
Faction Boss Competition section; check
Limited Time Tour section; check
Prizewall section; check
- Oh! Another notation for this section only. Screenshots from a test environment. Costs and items are not final!
Then…
Six-Star Bronze Loot (NO SHARDS) section; check
Forum Giveaway; check
Blog ending; check

Can you guide me to where the SUBJECT TO CHANGE is posted which would encompass the entire blog itself, or the subject to change notification from Scopely in the section which provided details stating a 6SB is all that’s required for Level 23?
Of all your mistakes and errors? This one seems pretty glaring in my eyes. It’s almost as if it’s golden-embossed. (Too soon?)
The Champions community is awaiting clarification on your LACK of subject to change 🤔

Subject to Change is posted in one spot on the blog. Under Solo Contest. So od say it's safe to assume that's the only place that we may see a change.

Also, I cannot wait to see what happens to my post. I typed a long one but got a popup alert that it will be visible after being approved. 🙄
I don't think I broke any rules but still expect a warning for something and I'm sure it will be "edited for context"

It is very disappoint to see that yet again the wrong information is on the blog! No indication was given that 6ss would be required on level 23. This has completely ruined the experience for my faction an I. We understand that changes happen. But we plan and adjust based on the information that was given. The last few event the information seems to always be wrong. On top of that a character that should work (HOF X-pac) is not working properly! With a message telling us we’ll suck it up and use someone else. Very VERY DISAPPOINTING!!

Adjusting the rarity requirements without any semblance of notice is deceitful, even if it wasn’t intended to be.
The x-pac dual gear issue is kinda just the icing on the cake. Please, please play test your game before releases to ensure stuff like this, or the cowboy bob issues are released in game.

Having SS not working for Faction Boss and being told to just use another card is ridiculous. Glad I didn’t spend on this event and stopped after the Ali deception. Also once again an incorrect blog released and no prior notice of requiring 6ss for lvl 23 is shameful

These mistakes/issues are becoming increasingly frustrating. The lack of communication and understanding is inexcusable and needs to be rectified. While I understand there are certain situations that require the "subject to change" tag, it has become nothing but a crutch for you to lean on when mistakes are made. Posting in this forum feels more like screaming at the wall rather than speaking with anyone who actually wants to address the discontent of the players. No one expects everything to be perfect at all times, however, the recent trend of issues goes far beyond what is acceptable. The community deserves much better.

lol the dictator will come tomorrow and close this thread
thank you community 😂

This will be probably redondant but nevermind
The fact that a 6SS is required to play lvl 23 is rough as 6SS came recently but I can understand the move. However, it's really frustrating and I was angry at this was not listed on the blog. I know that what's on the blog is "subject to change" but I cannot count the amount of "mistake" that were on the blog. In my opinion, the fact that this was not listed is not a mistake and it was purely intentional and I don't think this is acceptable at all.
But what more unacceptable is the issue with X-PAC. How can you expect players (or in that case customers) to be ok with the fact that putting ressources into a character will make useless compared to the same character with less ressources put in him? We also had no official communication about this problem. The only message we had was from discord of CCs but not everybody with him. Moreover, I cannot also understand why this problem can occur, why it's not possible to code such a simple thing...
Between the problem and once again your lack of communication, you clearly don't care at all about your customers
