I cannot find anything on the forums mainly because its so convoluted these days and......... im old.

But looking at the rewards for the upcoming event it looks like its double everything. Have I missed something here as I thought everyone would be going nuts over that? IN a good way ofc.

Or is this a late April fools?

    I did wonder but it seems like so much more then stated seeing it in black and white in game.


    Thank you

    It seems like it's much more. For example the table in the quoted post says no changes to elite tokens in scl 7 and 8. Yet the very first reward in this PvE is 2 elite tokens. Further down we get multiple 3 and 4* covers. It's either a mistake or the increase is much bigger then initially announced.

    Not just two 4* Blade covers, but in black & red.. two colours mine is sorely lacking. And a boosted 3* Strange should make tearing all those goons apart a breeze.

    I don't recall ever being happy at seeing ISO-8 roll through the cycle before.

    The only little gripe I have is that my R&G is at level 209. The next 4-5 champ rewards are mostly ISO with one Heroic token. Still.

    Huge rewards but need insane amount of playing?

    Roughly the same amount of playing as any other 7 days of MPQ. Sure, the rewards are even more back-loaded than they are for, say, a 3-day followed by a 4-day, but they're also better.

    Sure. Try that same math with HP or CP, though.

    Speaking of, does anyone have the math on how many of the early days you can skip if all you want is the 4* prog? Doing 6 clears instead of the minimum 5

    A 3-day PVE grants in progression 30 CP, so two 3-day events will land on 60 CP. That's 10 / day in progression if we split it out. So yeah, having 73 CP in progression for a 7-day event is more; 
    10.4 CP / day to more more exact.
    While I don't complain (I want and need CP) the hype for the new 7-day event rewards don't really weigh up the things that are tedious of facing the same opponents for 7 days. :)
    But Blade is boosted so it's a breeze. 
    I don't know how Thick as Thieves followed by The Hunt (or whatever) qualifies as "different opponents" ;)

    I think it's a bit misleading to used two three-day PVEs for comparison since a good number of PVEs are 4-days. I always assume that a week will consist of a three-day and a four-day PVE.

    New event every Thursday...a week is either a 3 day and a 4 day or a 7 day.
