I like this event.

[IronMaster]

I don't have new challenges, only the old one from the previous arena event (all completed).

Upd: I've changed the language to english and back to russian and problem is solved

Get 10 souls as part of the event then buy the other 40 with ironite to guarantee the character is a hard pass for me. Without wanting to cause more issues with currencies and fragments again, it would be nice if each arena win gave you fragments for fencing souls or similar; that way we would have a way of grinding for the character if we wanted to...

I second this. Repeatable event goals cap at 250 battles. 1-2 fragments per win would be better way to go than just having to buy character outright.

My first event soul got lost somewhere in BoS. And I think that the counter is "missing" some 3-power wins every now and then. Anybody else having issues?

And as always most of the people set up their best defence teams...

These events sucks. I said this so many times before, but the frogs are stupid or blind or deaf...I give up on them.

PLS take down Arena!

And as always most of the people set up their best defence teams...

There are more people than usual who have weak defense teams for this event (and credit to them for helping out the community) but I don't understand why people decide to run their best defense, especially when they are in the lower levels and don't have a chance of getting in the top tiers for the arena for the week.

You don't get credit for defense team wins for the challenges so it doesn't matter whether these teams win or lose or what characters you use.

If you have a weak defense, people with weaker teams are more likely to attack you back. This means you get more choice about who you attack back and it is easier to complete the challenges.

[Smudger24]

I find dropping rank to under 2000 makes life easier. Definitely if players understood an easy defense makes everyone's including their life easier, would be great.

I, like most have lost full interest in arena, I am glad they put PLAY 250, not WIN 250. Made life much easier this time around.

The choice to grind for the toon would be nice, but not sure if I would do it. Arena grinding would involve constant around the clock tapping the screen, you couldn't walk away. That would be painful.

I just think arena events should be quarterly at most, definitely not every month. My 2 cents...

[HuckFinn150]

I have found the endless grinding is becoming a chore and boring. To the point of not having the desire to participate in the events. It's sad. They should make an event interesting and achievable with manual playing (say 10-25 times) and you get said character etc. Even running troopers is becoming a pain.

I did like that the two "teams of the same color" this time were blue and purple. Some formidable teams you can make with those colors, and I was able to do the challenges without entirely relying on smurfs. That was enjoyable. I'm certainly not a fan of the "earn 1/5 of the character and then you have to buy the rest" events. In the 2 or 3 years that I've been playing, I've never, ever, gotten lucky with one of those 10 chance drops. But, they tend to only do this once a month, and a dev's gotta eat, so if this makes them some money, so be it. We'll get 5 or 6 characters that we can earn this month, and not getting this character gives us something to look forward to in upcoming heroic or sacrifice rotations.

As for people making their "best defenses" it doesn't seem any harder than normal. Certainly a whole lot more smurfs than in a non-Arena event (I say that with love, as I always have a smurf defense team). But every week when you get around 3500 or so, the defense teams become fully max awakened across the board.

Didn't get lucky with my 10 event souls unfortunately, but more than happy to get another Riposte set :D
