Diamond Quest could really use some improvements

My only wish is that Pxp was earnable during the showdowns. But that is not too important to me.

Conquest is loved by "offline" players who want to play low-stress games to finish stat missions and level up cards.

DQ doesn't do that. The stakes seem too high and the reward too RNG for the time invested. Lots of people don't want to play on Legend or GOAT.

@T4RbRuSh_XBL said in Diamond Quest could really use some improvements:

I don’t like going all the way through and only having a chance to get one of two cards.

Yup, I tried DQ last night (sadly, not the yummy ice cream) and was whelmed. This in particular irked me a bit enough to not wanna do it again, at least not right away.

I covered all of the spaces, lost only one or two of the challenges and played both stadium games on Veteran.

I got like 15-20 assorted packs and pulled Crochet for 11k all within an hour. It's better time spent than grinding Showdown - which is a mode I don't entirely hate - for an hour only to lose on the final boss.

@dbub_PSN I don’t have a big problem with the way it works. My biggest gripe is it’s just not rewarding enough. How about standard packs instead of bronze players. Make it worth the time it takes.

The odds need some work too. IMO, playing on GOAT mode should always be 100%. It makes no sense to me that there’s a, for example, 2% difference in odds from playing all star or legend.

My first (post tutorial) Diamond Quest experience (on Switch): I go through every square on the board to increase my odds, I get into the stadium game, the game becomes very very laggy, I lose, I get nothing from an hour of gameplay. Cool beans.

Idk if the game wasn't really to handle 15 active perks (as opposed to 3 in showdown) or what. Seems bad if you have to do the whole board to get good odds. The pitching challenges were a decent change of pace.

The previous post points to another problem -- if the connection craps out during that last game, you lose EVERYTHING.

That alone gives me pause.

[T4RbRuSh_XBL]

I gave DQ another shot earlier today. My point still stands. I ended up with 7 bronze packs and none of the reward players. Lost one Showdown, and beat both Stadium challenges. In my opinion, it’s not worth the time. At least with Conquest and Mini Seasons the rewards are guaranteed.

@T4RbRuSh_XBL Hopefully they make some adjustments. 40+ minutes for a maybe at a card worth 10k just isn’t worth it for me.
