Hero's path reward structure: length too short to reach progression

Hello Team,

it seems that the full streak of 180 ribbons in the new event Hero's path is unobtaineble.
If the event lasts 1 full day, so 24 hours and starts with 2 charges per node with 8 hour recharges you end up with 6 charges per node.

In node 1 you can earn 10 ribbons per battle, with 6 charges in the node your maximum number of ribbons is 60. 
Innode 2 you can earn 15 ribbons per battle, once again with 6 charges in the node the maximum number of ribbons in node 2 is 90.

If the above holds true then the maximum number of ribbons is 150.
@Oktagon_Support can you confirm this?

(Also this is adding insult to injury if we are losing charges due to unneccssary softlocks and crashes)

[MOD NOTE] Changed title to reflect Technical Issue. BK

    It runs for 46 hours. Plenty of time to get the ribbons.

    46 hours with a start of 2 charges equals 7 charges

    7 charges is a max of 175 points; the event max is 180

    Last round will be playable between midnight and 6am EDT

    a 6 hour refresh would be 9 charges and 250 points max, is that the error here?

    @bken1234 can we move to bugs?

    I had assumed the x.3 nodes would make up the points. :(

    I'd argue that it's unachievable, but on a different platform.  Several of the objectives example: "Summon 3 or more humans in a fight," do not activate when you do that.  I even tried casting 5 humans in one turn, to no effect.

    I have a perfect score so far and will only possibly see 175 points out of 180. That is the max available. Not sure how someone figures 25 goes into 180 evenly but ok. Even if it were set properly at 175/175, they aren't letting anybody miss a single objective and still max rewards. Challenging but kind of ruthless. I wonder if we will be given the 20 mana jewels in our inboxes because of this math mishap. I mean we did spend 15 yellow to enter.

    So my initial calculations where off but overall it seems I was right.... 

    Mind, the fact that you need a perfect score to get all the rewards doesn't bother me. However such a challenge only fair if
    1 All secondary objectives work as designed
    2 the game is bug free as far as freezes and crashes go
    3 Cards actually do what they are meant to do. ( looking a K's transformation for one)

    Hello everyone,

    We apologize for the issue with Hero's Path - Face The Hydra event.
    We will make sure the event is working properly the next time we run it.
    Also, we will add more charges not only so players are able to finish it but finish it without worries.

    Thank you for your patience,
    Marcela.
