Rux Rewards for Grand Master Ranks
Seems like it would be a wise idea to award 1000 Star Rux items for each Grand Master rank achieved. Either that or 500-1000 Rainbow Stars per Grand Master level.

@themightylayman I don't get it. I agree with you, they're never going to give players who reach grandmaster free stars. Which is why I said what I said. Prolonged grind just like GW2, no need to create new cosmetics that go into the reward-o-tron, and 500k isn't very grindy. You're also not forced to play modes you don't like.

One thing is CERTAIN, we will not get this grand master reward (or any other), if the devs don’t know we’re unhappy with the current setup.
I don’t know whether you saw but the 2nd Rainbow Stars Gift (300 star gift) was likely a direct result of this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Another-Round-of-Bulbs-PLEASE/m-p/8414344#M7154
I encourage you to give the devs and EA staff a little more credit. Though we often disagree with their decisions, we can be heard as a collective voice when the likes and me too’s climb high enough. 👍😊
In this instance, hearing our collective opinion (and implementing a reward) would actually benefit devs and gamers alike by extending the play time of those of us who like to max rank characters: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Grand-Master-of-wasting-time/m-p/8480628#M8382
- @spIash_damage Okay I will be the first to admit that my BfN give-a-damn has been in the shop recently because it is pretty busted, but did I miss a new batch of rainbow stars or am I miscounting or remembering? I've been in on and off to do bulb quests but I don't remember a second batch of rainbow stars?

- @Iron_Guard8 & @TLEsquire No, me neither - I assumed at the time that it was a typo about the free bulbs??
- @spIash_damage I don't remember another 300 free rainbow stars? And I do give the staff some credit, heck I'm the one who says the new Rux is reasonable considering!
My point is you should argue for something that you think has the best chance of being added to the game, which is why I keep arguing for that weekly exchange. You could rally together and ask for 1000 Star Costumes to be worth 500k coins, but that's not going to happen is it? Despite all the Me Too's and likes.

My point is that we can ask for things when we're loyal to the game/forum and even though it's not always granted, it's ALWAYS seen and 9/10 taken into consideration, etc. I've spoken privately umpteen times with Blueberry specifically as well as David but hate to tag them to prove a point (that they're watching these popular threads). .... but.... they are, man (or woman...lol). Believe me. Shaun is, too.... he's messaged me to let me know that they are watching valuable input. We (forum community) can't expect to stomp our feet and have demands met but we can tactfully make a request that the staff can consider and even if they don't oblige, they're likely to come up with a compromise we all can live with. At the current time, Rainbow Stars would be the preferred reward for anything in-game. Secondly would be bulbs. I get currencies confused cause they're so abundant. (LoL).
Hope this makes sense.

So then I thought I missed rainbow stars and that would suck. Sorry I took this a bit off topic, I just didn't want to miss out on the most scarce currency in the game.
I'm sure I had a brain fart but didn't see it until your post. I also don't want to go in and edit my initial reply or the thread wouldn't make sense.
Somehow, I missed an entire page of this discussion. I don't know whether my phone browser or the forum software is giving me issues but browsing = challenging. I've just busted out my PC to sort this. =]
