Season rewards: do they need buffing?

It came to my mind recently that the season rewards are really underwhelming. I'm now in the Master League I. The box gives 2 rare item pieces, which means you'd need to play in this league for 10 weeks to get the equivalent of a single rare item, and 300 rare parts, which are only enough to upgrade a single item a single time. If you are good and manage to get a top 10 spot in Master I, you get some extra uncommon parts, which is completely pointless because nobody ever lacks those.

I thought it was only the lower leagues that were so underwhelming, because I heard that higher leagues give you epic and legendary pieces, but @Kitterini pointed out that Ace 1 gives you 1 epic piece, meaning you'd need to play for 20 weeks to get the equivalent of a single epic. That's not any better.

So my question to you all is: what do you think about the current rewards?

 

It would be an obvious place to increase item generation, but nothing really indicate that devs share a belief that such a change is needed.
I'm loving the gold boost when a season ends and to be fair it wasn't long ago when only top 10 got crates -- But compared to weekly default rewards, the seasonal ones are fairly insignificant.

To me the general issue is how long it takes for f2p/low spenders (read. anyone unwilling to buy pearls for 500$+) to acquire and level epic gear. Slow and grindy is absolutely fair, but 3-4 years to reach endgame level gear is crazy! But its a tricky balance I suppose, players need motivation to keep playing and to spend money along the way.

 

Well, they are definitely less rewarding than deserved because all that pushing for what.. some pieces!! They should give item to top 3. And scraping pieces gives soooo few parts.. Any thoughts on that?

 

I'd love a rare item at least for being master 1 every season. I don't think 1 rare item every 2 weeks is gonna lower the game's profit

 

I already made a thread on it here is the link- https://forum.battlebay.net/threads/season-rewards.9847/#post-32116
But this basically what i said...
Anyone else feel season rewards are really really lame, even for #1?
Like, this is the only event we have, it takes two weeks, and the rewards are terrible.

Unfortunately, i dont have a picture. But what i got for winning 2nd place in masters div 1 is 200k gold, 1.5k badge points (it was actually like 1,577 or something like that but i dont remember exact number)...from the box i got like one rare weapon, 300 rare parts (one overboost upgrade and they were gone), and two rare pieces.

Likeeeeeee, cmon. that didnt help me. at all.
Thats like what 2 hours of battling and scrapping commons gets me.
two weeks for that?!

Also, can anyone help explain to me what the badge does for you? is there any benefit to having a higher badge? Just a cosmetic thing? What are the tiers to it? I understand there are three star levels before you get the next badge color, what are those colors?

 

I agree that the rewards are crap!! We are all feeding off of the scraps of a cracker in the season rewards.

 

They are crap until you get to ace 2. Then you start getting legendary pieces as rewards, they are defo worth going after.

 

Well, the poll result seems rather decisive...

Does everyone get them though, or is it just the top 3 or something?

 

Season rewards are very less, especially for the top 3 considering the amount of time people spent to reach the top spot. For others, it doesn't matter, but for the top 3 or 10, it matters.

PS: Only thing good for the top spots is the season upgrade points.

 

You dont get to the stage of legendary rewards by infamydropping though
Stop suiciding on purpose pretty please!

 

@monobrow why not wait until your team engages the enemy before charging in? You'll survive a lot longer if you aren't the only target, and your team could actually make something of the distraction you provide.

 

Thats a fair cop and to be honest the same conclusion im coming to in the 3k+ space..
Watch this space for Monobrow v2! Lol

 

Omg, will you lot stop moaning

But seriously, with agressive teams, its an easy fast win - when its followed up.
With teams who sit back camping, my patience usually runs out after a couple of minutes, so i move in and try to make something happen. If i wanted to play a shooter, sitting behind a rock, id play shooter.... speeders are meant to zip about and cause chaos, if the team is no where near me then the outcome is pretty much a loss, yeah.

At mk6 i get access to a different spec which gives different options. More camping friendly options, but at mk5 the quickest way to mk6 is fast wins..
