The further I get through this conquest, the more it becomes obvious that this was intentional. If it was one unit, a bug would make sense, but it’s every sectors mini and boss.My biggest issues with this are it wasn’t announced in any fashion. They let folks spend $30 & $10, and choose hard mode, but with these changes, those folks wouldn’t have made those purchases.If they aren’t going to re-adjust the difficulty, they should refund folks and re launch, so players can make the best decisions based on this new garbage CG is delivering.

If this change wasn't intentional every single one of the devs and QA should be fired because it's laughable how terrible they are.

Found a "normal" team for first miniboss...starting to wonder if the idea was exactly this...make a boss that requires a specific counter...or a small set of counters...I got a "try different teams" answer from support...i am curious if this will happen on all bosses...I guess it will backfire as most players will NOT find the "trick" and will be annoyed and cut on battlepass spending...me thinks...

You really don’t get the full value of the pass unless you can get more than 30 banners lol

too difficult, it doesn't make sense. Squads with relic 7 having a hard time with team squads 12. Only the legends have enough power... you have to reload not to advance, but to see how they fall one after another until you find one that is worth it... it's not worth it , this game mode is not for me, no matter how many rewards it gives... I will dedicate myself to collecting squads until I get tired, because they are worthless... sad

Why would they increase the difficulty, it was fine before? Add new disks and consumables, give us different bosses - cool, but there was no need to ramp up difficulty on an event that was already fairly challenging and time consuming. So what if a few players at the top found it easy. I am sure the majority of players don't. I will not longer buy a pass every conquest if this ramp up in difficulty was intended, the pass provides little to no value at this point.

Its intentional and they did communicate it, only in cg speak.

"Some exciting news coming your way about this upcoming Conquest!
Booster consumables were boosted notably, with new Data Disks that can amplify their power further

New Preview tech consumable to allow players to test out the Conquest unit as a summon in the ally slot

Personally, I'm excited for these Consumable adjustments, we will want your feedback as you interact with them (Possibly a survey, but feel free to let us know as you use them)"

Boosting consumables=increased difficulty. I thought people spoke cg by now

Yeah but he also lied and said it wasn't tuned to require the consumables, leading everyone to believe the difficulty levels were the same. But every single node is tuned up from last time.

I’d usually buy the pass, but this conquest is ridiculous in difficulty. When jmk lv and Reva can lose without taking hardly a turn against sector 2 boss it just reassures me not to buy the pass cause why bother

I understand that the work day is just starting in CA, but you'd think they would have put out a post first thing apologizing and issuing a make good, or at least explaining what is going on. Is the difficulty increase intentional? If so, why was this not communicated to players before Conquest started so that they could decide if they didn't want the pass prior to spending. If its not intentional and another bug, just cancel conquest and refund everyone, and start it again once its fixed. This is a dumpster fire right now

Some dude in CG‘s ivory tower of ignorance had a brilliant idea for the already grindy conquest to make it even more ridiculous. This game is getting more and more abysmal…god…it has been great when Carrie has been running the show years ago. The current guys in charge are simply…

They boosted consumables but reduced the duration to 1 fight. That's not really a net "boost"? :s
