Well, we need tier 2 alphas and tier 3 class, I have 5 bots maxed at rank 5 and still couldn’t beat the stinking last chapter 3 in expert, once you beat the final boss once, you shouldn’t have to keep beating him to complete the map, it should permanently go away. I spent even over 700 energon for revives and repairs and had full energy in all my 5 bots for the final boss, and every stinking time I was ready to win they got a whole bunch of energy and went crazy on my bot and couldn’t even get a hit in.
To make it worse, you lowered the rewards because you added master level so this time I couldn’t even get the silver relic for beating the hard level and got nothing for trying to complete the expert level, I didn’t even waste my time playing the master level,
You should have kept the rewards the same and made the master level higher rewards
I only have 3 bots maxed and forged at rank 5/50 and I fully explore master difficulty... I'm also in a top 5 alliance, and I still don't have the resources to make 5 maxed bots yet.. I'm f2p. So, you're doing better than me with progression.
The problem isn't the system, it's developing ninja skills, upgrading the correct bots that counter the mod meta, and learning the different playstyles of all the bots, so you can use them when needed instead of relying on one or two.
Also... They actually increased the rewards for hard and expert overall, it's only really the relic that changed and moved up.
Most of the time when I touch my screen on my iPad Pro 12.9 my bot won’t do much, I wish we could use controllers/joysticks so when you press the A button it does a specific task, not just touch and hit a screen for it to move and do something, it doesn’t matter where you touch it on the most part, I know some places block and such but most of the time it doesn’t matter, auto play actually works better
They buffed them.Kabam buffed the rewards for all difficulties adding on top the brand new Master difficulty,which offer great rewards.But is defo not easy.
Only the relics are moved up by one,but the last two are not very useful anyways.And there should be a challenge in my opinion to win them.Adding a Diamond relic for Master would be nice,so I am with you on that and hope they put it in soon.Maybe next month?
As of you,who has more R5 bots than most of the players in game and you can not beat Expert with R5 4* bots?Expert was tunned down a bit and we managed to beat it with R4 4* bots in the past.One R5 4* decently forged bot and you can solo Expert easily with only this one bot.
As of your second to last comment about playing mostly on auto.Where is the challenge here?Why you play the game when you actually do not play it by yourself or try to become better,smarter.
No comment....But to each its own.I wish you to have fun though,but do not expect to clear Expert bosses on autoplay.
Else there is no point in really playing this game for any of us.
I think a purple ribbon should given too for all those who attempted expert or master completion.
Honestly dude, if you can't beat a level difficulty that's called EXPERT or MASTER should give you an indication that maybe your skill is not up to par to completing those levels. Just because you have a max r5 does not mean you should be able to breeze through everything. There is a skill cap for a reason.
Keep practicing, and the end result will rewarding.
Also, on the subject of friends of Kabam rushing in to silence criticism...buddy you should be active enough to see people call Kabam on alot of stuff, myself included.

Bro half the reason you get crushed is auto fight. Auto fight is fine for easy,medium, hard and story. Even arena 1-5 can be auto.
Hiw you going to learn how to play if all you do is autofight?
if you don't have a team that can earn t3c from spotlight missions then you aren't in a position to need t3c anyway. Finding a good alliance can be tough, but the best way is to check the scoreboards for events - then you will see which alliances are active.
What a load of crock. I have FOUR 4 star bots. Each is rank 4/5. Each requires 1 t3c. Two of those bots are the same class, so I need two t3c of the same class.
Since t3c have been available, I have 200 spark essence at most in each of the classes I need. That’s purely out of selling overflow t2c.
At this rate, it will take me TEN MONTHS to get ONE t3c of a given class.
This is not okay.
To say I am not in a position to need t3c is ludicrous. I have recently joined an alliance that does do alliance missions. This allows me to earn extra t2c to sell. At this increased rate, it might take me 8 months to get t3c. Probably less with any bonus t3c essence from the sanctum crystals, which is awarded at a random drop rate.
So at best, I’m looking at 6 months before I can even consider maxing out my four star bots.
At that point, I’ll have already begun collecting 5 star bots, which require even more t3c.
This isn’t about knowing what I need, I know what I need and I know how to get it - the issue is the rate of collection.
I need the t3c to max my bots to finish story mode and do the master levels. To say I’m not at a place to need them is to forget why I need them in the first place.

You're really not understanding. You have the bots to beat the content that will reward you with t3c. If you can't, you don't need it anyway.
As I said before... You don't need to finish master to get t3c, you only need to explore expert. Ask around. I will wager the vast majority are able to do that with 4/40 4* bots and finish story missions with 3/30 4* bots.
If you can't finish expert with rank 4/40 4* bots, you need to practice or use some of your free energon to get through it. It's a worthwhile investment. You think top players didn't target their spending this way when the opportunity presented itself?
You can also crush story missions with rank 3/30 4* bots, the AI is elementary in those. So, if you think you need rank 5 for that.. man... Your bot power isn't the problem.
Your answer is to get spark essence once a month? If you aren’t going to read, stop replying. This is not a solution. It is a one time per month thing to get a fraction of a crystal that will yield a random drop which in itself a 1 in 6 chance of being a spark I need.

Stop joking. It isn’t funny.
It's half a crystal. Which means you'll have a full one in two spotlights, which is less than two months unless it takes you the full 30 days to explore expert, which it will not.
Once you get one r5, more content becomes easier and you increase your available sources of t3c.
But hey... Go ahead and keep selling them t2c sparks if you think you'll get there faster that way.

Before it took like a few months to get 1 t3c random crystal from AM.Spotlights had none.
And the only other sources were beating Rok1 and the cash/energon deals.
We have beaten Expert in the past with only 1 R4 4* bot the first time.Was hard.lol
But with full team of R4 4* Expert is easy,if you chose the right teams for the given path/nodes.
Now if you join a top Alliance you get tons of t3c fragments from rank rewards,exploration.It adds up.
Spotlights give some as well.Expert : half of t3c.
It is still the wall.Not for the top/veteran players,but for new/middle tier players-yes.
Just be patient like we all were(we played the game for more than an year,grinded for 3* bots in the begining.lol.Even did Arenas for 2* bots.)
You get 3* bots from the daily crystal nowadays.
The game has come a long way.
Get to the top and in time you will pass the current wall and will be ready for the next challenges.Master is actually challenging even if you have many R5 4* bots.
Need to play like a ninja and many of us die miserably on some bosses from time to time.
Practice and up your skills.All you can do right now.
If you want a faster progression buy some deals/energon and explore the Spotlights 100%,Rok1,Rotk,etc...
A t3c deal will appear soon as well.
Are you even in an alliance that does map3? If not step up and quit crying..... 1000 t3c essence from the ancient sanctum crystals and if you are good enough to run 21+ you get t3crystal shards for exploration, so if you have r4 bots you can use, find an alliance, there are plenty looking for members that want to progress, join up run am every week get better help your alliance push and you will get there. Look through your acheivements and see which ones you havent accomplished yet that give t3c crystals and shards... there are countless avenues to find t3c sparks so stop crying and instead of cruising through get it together and figure it out!!! They are there you just have to work for them...there are no participation trophies with a t3c spark wrapped up in them, unless you work for it
You speak as if everyone has access to an alliance crew that actually plays the game. My alliance categorically does not do AM. I have joined many and none have ever done one. I have run my own and no member sever joined in - i was always alone doing it and never got any t3c for trying.
Join my alliance then We have 100% AM participation and get 100% clearance across all 3 BGs each AM.
We're looking for a new member. We specialise in recruiting people miffed that their alliance doesn't AM.
If your team only has a rating of 7k then you don't have any bots that require a t3c.
Fake news buddy!
Motormaster: 2530 requires 1 t3c to rank up
Optimus prime: 2447 requires 1 t3c to rank up
Dinobot: 2046 juste ranked to 4/5. Will require 1 t3c when I level him up.
Forge some of these bots.Your best 2-3 ,which you use in AM as well, should be max forged or close to it.
After max forging your R4 4* bots ,they will be even a bit stronger than a none forged R5 4*.
Then you can 100% Expert and with AM rewards,raids, you can get close to 1 full tier3c per month.
Try the first two chapters of Master as well(they are easier than the final chapter) and you will have your first R5 4* in no time.
And if he is max forged,he will be a killer. And then repeat with the other bots in your roaster.
Joining a strong top 20-30 AM Alliance is a must now with the new rank and milestone rewards.
Cheers.

so add another 2 bots to that, at rank 4, and you'll be able to 100% explore Expert spotlight if you are skilful enough, and you can start to accrue t3c. Isn't rocket science. If you don't have 5 4* bots at rank 4 with some forge levels in them, then I repeat, you don't need t3c.

They’re about 25% forged as is. Today they finally made t3c shards available for raid chips. That’s all I was asking for.

This is a huge thread. For me personally, I practiced alot in KoH. Even if I didn't beat the bot, I could rate my progress and skill based on how far I got with him... Mixmaster is a brutal opponent in KoH. I finally beat him the other day with Prowl. I have 2 r5 bots, Prowl and Grimlock and I'm almost done with expert and am hoping to at least complete Master.
Practice my man....took me a while.
T3C shouldn't be handed out but the rate at which t2c can be sold for it could be improved. 40 is too low considering they are 10k. A return of 100 t3c shards would be fair IMO.
It's still a bit crappy to be sitting here pulling from random crystals and, for example, stockpiling some useless t3c and unable to pull a specific one for months or shards from AS crystals.

Only one left I have left that gives t3c essence required me to start a mission with rating of 20k. I’m am currently at 7k.
Not a single other achievement I earned ever gave me t3c.
I have never gotten a single t3c of any kind.
