Every good chessmaster is always a few moves ahead of their opponent. So you’ll need to start planning because Kingpin has made a move by stealing Mystically empowered artifacts. These artifacts have been locked into Kingpin’s vault for safekeeping and their enchantments have made these vaults into a Chessboard of challenges.

Start Date: April 3rd, 2024
End Date: May 8th, 2024

Overview

Two separate maps - Maze and Vault - 5 Threat Levels

All Threat Levels unlocked for all progression levels
4 paths on each map
New maps weekly

Complete Solo Objectives to earn Maze Keys (total 16)

A new string of Solo Objectives will appear each week and run until the conclusion of the event

Complete Maze paths to earn rewards and a key to the Vault of corresponding threat level

Maze Keys are consumed upon entering the quest. Vault Keys are used to open up a path but are not consumed unless the quest is completed
DISCLAIMER: There are only 16 Maze Keys available, and there are 16 paths in the Vault of each Threat Level - if you spread your Maze entries across multiple Threat Levels, you CAN miss full exploration rewards - BE CAUTIOUS

Enter the Vault and complete paths to collect goodies
Fully Explore a Threat Level (FOCUS ON ONE), across all four weeks to earn Awakening Gems
Complete Solo Events to earn Hail to the King Crystal Shards and other rewards

His Name’s Sake Available May 1st

Step Five - Fully Explore a Threat Level

**AGAIN: Focus your Maze entries on one Threat Level, or you will be unable to explore a Threat Level*

Can we start getting more t6c or nah? A few 5% per month is criminal at this point.

Rewards are ok I guess, nothing groundbreaking
Gameplay sounds a little like this months quest but without the exploit of doing the lowest threat level

Where does it say anything close to that? Is just the list of champions in the crystal, no 7-stars there

Unless your a mega whale and have all available relics as 5 and 6*, then the relic rewards are fine.

There's no point of collecting ALL relics of ALL tiers unless you're a collector (get it 🤣)
Literally no difference other than nieche interaction in nieche fights in nieche nodes

Am I missing something on the traders outpost bundles or are they just extremely underwhelming for the amount of work put in? I stopped doing the Knull side quests this month because all I get is mysterium and you trade it in for limited quantities of okayish resources.

The more champs you have ranked up, the more relics you want to have for that sweet combo extender on every champ. And you want to have the 5* and 6* rarities, too, because of the quicker spirit gauge…

Thats the point. How did you reached the conclusion that was refering to 7-stars?

See, this comment right here.
Let's be honest. The only thing stopping the majority of Paragons is the existence of the two R3s. Before the Title even existed, everyone at that level was deep in the process of working on their 7* Roster.
If someone made the argument that Valiant deserve MORE, that's logical. It can also be supported by the needs of their Rosters.
Telling people to get Valiant if they want more 7*s is ignorant to the fact that the trend lately is to omit the 7* Shards from these progress-based reward situations. More is one thing. Cutting them off completely is the same as saying they're not appropriate to that level, and that I strongly disagree with.

I think you missed the point of the question mark.
I asked the question because there was no reference regarding the amount of stars the champions would have. The answer to that question would get me to a conclusion.

Defeat FEMALE TAGGED Champs…
There isn’t an actual TAG for FEMALE (or Male) in game.
Similar to non-existent CANADIAN Tag.
Curious, is there an “internal” Tag for these in game (that just isn’t visible to us in Tag Filter or Champ Profile), or are Objectives like these manually coded with a list of all the individual champs available each time another Objective like this comes up in a given month ?
So wondering if say a new Canadian champ were added to game, would Kabam have to go back into that Canadian quest/objective and add such new champ into that list, or is there an internal “Canadian” Tag that makes that seamless when a new champ gets that internal Tag ?
(For example/fun, re Canadian. another Deadpool, which drew the ire of a certain Canadian equivalent of the Blue Fairy, since Deadpool sort of breaks the 4th-wall Rules and might be able to transcend into Disne…'s other realms. And this Fairy does a sort of “opposite of Pinocchi..” on him, turning him into a WOODEN DEADPOOL. And then goes on to team up with Groot and K.G. to have some Synergies with).

This is why I always feel like a joke when those famous forum names start to blablabla economy system of the game and why Kabam is so careful about changing things.
Economy system of the game is broken.

even as a valiant, the rewards are below my expectations. Basic alpha selector was a big W kabam has made, but i am surprised how lacking of the t6cc were

Kabam trying to walk a fine line there, after giving us Female theme event, now in April they literally want us to defeat Females specifically 💀

A 6* Awakening Gem for completing a selected *Threat Level..? 😐
Common you guys! I have like 15 of these! Maybe at least make it 20 7* sig stones or something. Paragon+ hardly could care about generic awakening gems at this point in game.
