18k for 100 shards of Alphas is ridiculous. Will take forever just to form 1 Alpha via raids.
Maybe have an Alpha Challenge one a week where the reward is 25% of the shards you need so upon 100% completion in a months time you could get one Alpha spark. At least that pace would be a 100% fast than the snails pace I'm currently moving towards getting an Alpha spark.
Gr8 idea @Trailbreaker77 i hope kabam will see that
There should be no reason you cannot complete chapter 3 without r4 bots most time my r4 tied up in am or defending.

It's not a one time thing either... If you drop below 1200 medals you get locked out of the high end purchases until you climb the ladder to the threshold again.
Also I really don't think the game is in a state right now where you should sink money into it. But that's just my personal opinion.
As you all know, this game is pretty new. We're only just cracking the surface of what progression is going to look like as we move forward. That being said, we do know that this is a pain point for you all right now. Over time, this will get easier, and we are looking at ways to accelerate the rate at which you can obtain Alpha Sparks.
We have done a few things already, like introduced the Prime Challenge. Yes, that challenge is VERY hard, but that is one way for players to obtain it, if they so wish.
But this is not all. There is much more to come, so stay tuned!
At least they scaled it in segments so you can at least mitigate the difference in progress vs heavy spenders by paying for part of one :l
the latest Alpha offer is just that. 100 energon with escalating costs every 1k alpha shards. Unacceptable.
18k raid chips for (first purchase only) 1000 alpha shards.. unacceptable.
why make 3* upgrades so difficult? might as well remove the alpha requirements for them to reach max power? should only need alphas to upgrade 4* bots not 3*s!
The challenge is not feasible without having Alpha-upgraded bots AND spending money; takes about $100 to complete even then apparently--the challenge to get an Alpha requires you to already have multiple Alphas, specific dupped 3* and 4* bots AND spend more money than an Alpha cost when it was sold...
Do you not see an issue with this "way to accelerate the rate at which you can obtain Alpha Sparks"?
sorry it's 18k raid chips for just 100 alpha shards.. that would take you 100 purchases of that just for 1 Alpha.
Hey w8sted,
Like MustangJon mentioned above, there's been a huge change to Raids, as well as how many Essence you can gather daily from the Raid Store (as well as cutting the costs significantly). We've also just introduced our first Spotlight quest, which also offers a fairly decent amount of Alpha Spark essence in the 100% Exploration as well as first time completion rewards.
There are definitely going to be more events like that in the future, and we are still looking at ways to make Tier 1 Alpha sparks more accessible!
So far Kabam is very generous with the stuff you give for completing the quests..I've do well collecting bots and such, but they do not good if it's impossible to get what you need for upgrades.
