    Corvus - New Champion Megathread

    Posted: 29 Apr 2020 08:33 AM PDT

    I have the power of the Abyss and the Magistrate on my side! AAAAAAHHH!

    Today marks the release of Darkness & Dragons, and the addition of a new Champion. Join us in welcoming them to The Realm! Do you have questions about what it is that Io does, or want to share a loadout you like? This is the place for all that and more! Let's talk about Corvus!

    Flair Corvus, The Magistrate's Blade

    Overview:

    Affiliation: Flair Magistrate

    Lore

    The most difficult decisions test even the strongest of wills, but his will has never wavered, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. He is Corvus, The Magistrate's Blade. He is the son of Karne, the powerful leader of the Magistrate, but it is by his own merit that he has earned the absolute loyalty of his men and instilled fear in his enemies.

    A charismatic leader and brilliant tactician, Corvus will stop at nothing to see his goals realized: a peace to surpass that of the Golden Age, under the Magistrate's rule. With the near-limitless energy of the Abyss, bent to his iron will, and those soldiers still loyal to his vision of peace, he is doing what no other is capable of. By his own strength, the Resistance will fall, and peace will be forged for the Realm's citizens, with or without their cooperation.

    The battlepass grind is unholy.

    Posted: 29 Apr 2020 09:58 AM PDT

    So I've been playing this game for several months now, started around the battleforged pass. When they removed daily crystals I had saved up enough for the community battlepass, and I did it, did every challenge and reached level 80. It was terrible. Sure I got a bunch of crystals and chests and skins and stuff (I only really cared about the Ash skins, Lian was good too.) but god did it suck the fun out of the game. It became this huge massive eternal grind of playing training TDM (because usually my internet is not stable enough for casual) and Onslaught for challenges. It took 500k xp to gain one bp level. A TDM match will get you around 40-50k xp and a good length siege match will get you about 100k if you're lucky. I don't know about you, but that's terrible. Even if you have the personal boosters, even if you have a team booster applied, even if there's a double XP weekend you still get an insultingly low amount of XP per match. It happened with the community pass, and I was like "okay I'm never doing that to myself again" and lo and behold an amazing looking Ying skin came out in the next one and I was like "great, guess I have to grind that too".

    That time, yesterday actually, I was only able to reach level 70 which was just enough for the Ying skin. I would have liked to reach level 80 but I couldn't put myself through that. Plus I don't care for that Maeve skin. So I tortured myself again by grinding the Egyptian battlepass, sometimes my internet was kind enough to make it a little more fun but most times it was mindless training match grind or me getting a red wall in ranked, the occasional squash in casual. It's that over and over and it's not fun. And I haven't even started on the challenges.

    I want to start this off by saying I hate the character specific challenges. I want to play who I want to play, but due to basically needing to complete every single challenge on the list to get a grand total of 15 levels worth of challenges (now it's 18 levels since they made it 60 challenges instead of 50), it's hardly worth it since you barely get a good boost to your progress. In the early stages it's great because you can get five challenges in one match if you know what you're doing, and even if you don't you'll still get a bunch at once. Each challenge is worth 150k XP, and there's 50 of them. Ranging from very easy (play 1 onslaught match) to very hard (get 10 headshots in a row 10 times) and yeah, they're both worth the same amount. It's ridiculous. A nearly worthless amount of XP for that? I spent ages trying to get that. And even then it doesn't really matter, because I can get over 150k XP during a good siege match during a double XP weekend, so it's like, what's genuinely the point of doing the challenges if they barely get you any XP?

    Because you have to take anything you can get to even remotely progress on the pass. You get 5% personal boosters along the way but they're completely negligible as far as I'm concerned. Team boosters barely affect anything, as I've mentioned. And if I thought it was terrible before, now they've increased the level cap to 120 where I actually have to reach because I really want that Furia skin. And yes, now there's 10 more challenges. They're insane. Not only do I have to play as characters I don't want to play as, (Khan, Strix, Viktor, and dear GOD that Tiberius challenge, seriously fuck that. What were they thinking?) I have to do all of these god forsaken challenges to even get a lick off of this new battlepass. Sure they're "optional" and I'll probably get most of them just by playing normally anyway, but if I just play the game casually like I like to do, I'll never reach 120, let alone even something like 50. So these challenges are STILL 150k each, and the XP required is STILL 500k for each level, but now there's more levels and they still have the painfully inducing challenges like "kill this specific character with this specific character 50 times" or some insane requirements like that.

    TL;DR I like the new skins, I like Corvus, I absolutely hate how grindy the BP is, 150k xp for a challenge while each level is 500k as well as the new cap being level 120 is insane. Devs need to either increase XP gained per challenge to like 300k, increase match XP by like triple, or lower the XP requirement to level up by at least half. As it is right now, it's grindier than literally any game I've ever played, and the grind is not fun. Grind is fine if it's fun. This is not fun.
