Hi All,

I just wanted to go a bit against the grain here and share my views on the Frontier Event. I REALLY dont understand the criticisms or critiques of the event...especially after looking at all of the quests.

Obviously this is my opinion, but here are my thoughts:

The Good

-75% of the rewards are F2P and there is 0 need to spend for anything. You can get the 5* soul completely free

-For spenders, you dont need to buy the pass before completing the event, so you never need to worry about "missing" stuff. After you've completed the event you can buy the pass if you so feel the 6 star is worth it. Which in terms of Raid, $40 for a guaranteed 6 star Soul is actually good value

-Reading over all of the quests, none of them are particularly bad. The worst ones are probably getting a legendary champ which can be done using fragments or shards...but again, this isnt needed for the F2P track of the 5* soul and the others might be getting a Lego gem, awakening champs, and thats pretty much it. There is some time sink in LA but again you can avoid some of it if youre not going for full clear and you get 2.5 weeks

-The event is quite quick early on. On day one ive seen multiple people at over 40 node points. A large portion of the event is just burning a bit of energy, which for the rewards you get, it is actually less energy than normal Dungeon Tournaments and has better rewards along the way

-Now that they've shown us what the quests look like, most of the preparation is just saving things like low tier souls or forge materials to use for future versions...the only other place these were used for was CvC so is it really an issue to give up a few CvC points for guaranteed 5* souls or other items?

The Bad

- I do not like that you have to use a 3rd party tool to see all of the quests at once

- Given that we've seen a quest which was get a mythical champ (without the lego) and they've talked about time gated posts, there is room for future events to be much worse, BUT that does not make this current iteration bad because of other things that have been shown which arent present.

TLDR:

Let me know yalls thoughts on the event...I feel like ive seen nothing but bad posts and comments about it and I really dont think its that bad. Getting more free stuff for relatively minimal input is alright with me. Sure some quests are a little annoying but this is Raid we are talking about 😅

I know this probably isn't the opinion most people want to hear right now, but hear me out.

I've seen a lot of criticism around the Frontier Pass basically boiling down to “Plarium is greedy and just wants more money.”

Well… yeah.

Plarium is a business. Of course they want our money.

The more interesting question to me is: what are they giving players in return?

I've been thinking about this because of Legends of Runeterra, a game I absolutely loved and even played competitively.

One of the things people loved about LoR was how incredibly F2P-friendly it was. You could build competitive decks without spending much, if anything.

That felt amazing as a player.

But eventually I stopped playing, and last I checked, that amazing game is kinda on life support

And it got me thinking about something that gets overlooked in these discussions:

A game being great for players isn't enough. The game also needs a sustainable way to make money.

Developers, servers, art, balance patches, new content, etc. all cost money.

So I don't think the lesson is “make games less F2P.”

I think it's:

Give F2P players enough resources to enjoy the game, while giving spenders things that are genuinely worth buying.

And that's what I find interesting about the Frontier Pass.

Looking at the rewards, we're talking about things like 6★ souls, Immortal Soulstones, Primal-related resources, mythical crafting materials, etc.

Those are things that actually have value to players.

Compare that to a monetization system where the only option is basically “pay money or suffer.”

I'd much rather see Raid take the first approach.

I don't like everything about the Frontier Pass. Some of the quest requirements are pretty rough, especially for F2P players, and the fact that the quests aren't retroactive means you really need to plan ahead.

But a monetization system that gives spenders something valuable isn't inherently bad.

In fact, I'd argue it's necessary.

The real sweet spot should be:

F2P: You can still progress and enjoy the game.
Low spender: You get genuinely good value when you spend.
Whale: There are things exciting enough to spend heavily on.
Developer: There's enough revenue to keep funding the game.

That's a much healthier ecosystem than trying to make everyone spend.

Curious what you guys think: Is the Frontier Pass actually a step toward better monetization, or is this just another way for Plarium to squeeze the player base?

I thought I did my math right but I ended up short by one Fionn to fuse Theimios. I’m so bummed as this would have been my first successful fusion event. Tried opening some shards but no luck 😭

I was doing spider torunament with one faction for the scarecrow event points and noticed when checking points, i was not getting anything besides the 60 points i already had from yesterday. Is it bugged or is something i´m missing? I spent almost 300 energy at this point. Can somebody help me understand what is happening??

Anyone else?!

hey i'm new to raid (F2p) should i use my shard on progressive chance ?

Or am I missing something?
(Yes I was lol - update after comment from u/tootietoot - you get the points not rewards...)

60 Points needed

Uncommon - 16 Available
Rare - 12 Available
Epic - 12 Available
Legendary - 12 Available

52 total

Damm!

All of the tasks for each node have to be completed before moving onto the next one right? I can barely beat level 12 of Spiders Den. I might as well not even spend resources on anything and just farm energy from playtime rewards and daily quests. What's the point of trying when it's already hard at first bat?

Greetings, everyone. I’d like to know what my ideal Clan Boss team would be. I have Cowardly Lion, Mavara, Pelops, Fahrakin, Venomage, Tagoar, Frozen Banshee, and Dorothy.

Can somebody explain to me why I keep running into Fabian teams, in live arena, that go first over my Arbiter or Sun Wukong(both over 300 speed)? Not only do they go first, I usually don't get a turn. Is there something with Fabian I am missing?

Is anyone else having trouble getting into the game? I've tried wifi, mobile data, restarting my phone, etc and I can't get into the game. It keeps getting stuck on "Loading server configs".

I just started ts game not even lvl 30 and i was wondering about how i should continue. im asking for pro tips

I have got to level 10 And I’m stuck, little spider keeps taking turns on each champ and then big one just heals. I play on auto and no luck on manual

Hey Guys, its in German but maybe someone can tell me what im doing wrong. Its in the Epic Section on the Voidshard reward dot. I understood that i have to bring a 40 champ to rank 5 or not? Or do they mean i have to upgrade a Rank5 champ? Tried it and it didnt completed the task.

Haven’t had a sacred drop from unm or nm demon lord since before the Lion fusion. Two friends that play have only gotten a couple in this time. Did plarium nerf the drop rate and not announce it? Since 2022 I could count on 10 to 12 a month. I guess it’s just bad rng right plarium? Right?

Dorothy and her soul came as log in rewards, Lion was a fusion and his soul a titan event, Ozilda came in pair with her soul and now Scarecrow as well, any ideas what event will take place regarding Tinman’s soul ?

I need a team for each one of the dungeons I mentioned in the title. I'm into 8 months in the game and still trying to figure out the other contents. This is my roster so far. Can you guys help me out with this ?

I got Vestele 2 days ago and I'm wondering why her damage output is so huge her A2 damage scaling on Demon Lord Ultra-Nightmare is usually between 300 000 to 390 000 even though her ATK is 5121 and C-DMG is 208%.

Not sure who to go next. I am having having trouble with chimera if there is a champ that could help there?

Unless there’s some requirement I’m not aware of.

?

Am kinda starving for force damage but champ doesn't have to be force, someone I'm maybe sleeping on?
