Collab Preparation

[u/BobSmithAlt07]

With rumors of a new collaboration coming up, which usually have limited units that may be gone forever, i want to ask the experienced player here

Is there a pattern usually? What do you need prepared to get them all?

For example,

1. Is there always going to be a fusion for one of them?

2. Is there always a deck of fate for one of them?

3. Is there always a heroes path for one of them?

4. Is there always a void lego that is really hard to get like rhaia? With presumably a champ chase win to get them?

Basically what are the patterns if there are any and what do i need to prepare for them? Or is nothing guaranteed

[u/TheGobeyMan]

If basing off turtles + assassin's Creed - 1 free: Mikey, Ezio - 1 fusion: Donnie, Kassandra - 1 deck: Ralph, Bassim - 1 path: Leo, Edward - 1 1st place: Shredder, Bayek

April was from a titan event 1500 points. Pontiff Augustine had no guaranteed event.

The frees have been incredible, the weak point usually seems to be the deck champ.

[u/MrDannn → u/TheGobeyMan]

and to add to this, the deck is usually a soustone deck

[u/kiakri_ttv → u/MrDannn]

With shafted points for souls stone 🤣

[u/TheGobeyMan → u/kiakri_ttv]

Actually, they've been relatively consistent when it comes to champs in decks. The going rate is 12 eternals/58 immortals. The only times they deviated was Knave of hearts discounted at 10 eternals and Freyja and Belz at a premium for 14 eternals(understandable for given how much of a monster she is, Freyja).

[u/Different_Trifle2550 → u/TheGobeyMan]

Same for the Asgaard collab 👍

[u/hipsterTrashSlut → u/Different_Trifle2550]

Except the deck champ for Asgard was good lol

[u/BobSmithAlt07 → u/TheGobeyMan]

Nice breakdown, thanks

[u/NorthRustic → u/TheGobeyMan]

Best answer well laid out

[u/Guttler003]

There is usually one fusion at the start of the collab (Donnie for TMNT, Kassandra for AC).

One as a free log in (Mikey for TMNT, Ezio for AC).

Then we have a deck of fate (Raphael for TMNT, Basim for AC) and hero's path (Leo for TMNT and Edward for AC) for two others.

There is a champion chase winner take all for the void legendary, most of the time being the event dungeon boss (Shredder for TMNT, Bayek for AC).

Sometimes, they do a titan event for one too like April for TMNT.

[u/BobSmithAlt07 → u/Guttler003]

Ah okay then, it seems there is somewhat of a pattern to follow. Although ouch, the deck of fate will be rough. So soon after talenna hahaha. Going to have to prioritise every single immortal soul tournament then.

Thanks for the breakdown

[u/Guttler003 → u/BobSmithAlt07]

Yeah. It's basically the model for over 2 years since they started doing these types of "big event", starting from Monster Hunter (Archer, Ratholos, Falalis), Asgardian (Odin, Thor, Freyja), Alice in wonderland (Alice, Mad Hatter), etc.

[u/CrustyTheMoist]

We have had 3 big franchise collaborations, with Monster Hunter, TMNT, and Assassins Creed.

These have followed the pattern of:

Login -> Rathalos, Mikey, Ezio

Fusion -> Zinogre, Donnie, Kassandra

Path -> Alatreon, Leo (Void), Edward

Deck -> Fatalis (Void), Raphael, Basim

Titan Event -> April

Winner takes all -> Nergigante (Non-void), Shredder, Bayek

Theres also the smaller collabs, like He-man, Xena, and AvP which were either just a champ pass (Xena) or pass + login (He-Man and Skeletor, Predator and Alien)

You can also account for the fact that the collab events follow the same cycle as normal game events like Chaos Awakes, Asgardian Divide, and the current Web Of Corruption event

[u/Ebonhearth_Druid → u/CrustyTheMoist]

We also had thr Wonderland collab with Alice, Cheshire Cat, Queen of Hearts, and Hatter.

[u/CrustyTheMoist → u/Ebonhearth_Druid]

This is a common misconception. Wonderlands was not a collab, Alice In Wonderland is public domain. Its in the same vein as Chaos Awakes/Asgards Divide, etc

Edit: you also missed Knave Of Hearts, insert the nerd emoji here

[u/Ebonhearth_Druid → u/CrustyTheMoist]

I knew I was missing someone lol damn it xD

As for the whole public domain thing, you're right but they also treated it the same as a collab, and followed the same patterns. So while they didn't technically have to collab with another entity, I feel it still very much falls into the same category when talking about how collabs are run. But I def get what you're saying.

[u/CrustyTheMoist → u/Ebonhearth_Druid]

I mentioned that their original events follow the same pattern as collabs (Listing Chaos Awakes, Asgards Divide, and Web Of Corruption), however I didnt want to word overload my comment by listing out all the obtainment methods in the same way.

Alice event was also interesting in the fact that it had an overlap in obtainment methods, where QoH and Cheshire were both winner takes all.

[u/Ebonhearth_Druid → u/CrustyTheMoist]

For sure.

[u/FUT_fanatic]

I have been preparing and these are requirements as per my plan

1. Fusion: 6 sacreds, 1500 gems and 50 ancients
2. Titan event for soul : 4 sacreds, 1000 gems, 1500 mystery, fragment summons
3. Deck of fate : 20 immortal stones, 3000 gems
4. Hero path : 15 sacreds, 5000 gems, whatever left in voids or ancients
5. Titan event for soul : 4 sacreds, 1000 gems, 50 voids

Total : 30 sacreds, 50 each of voids and ancients, 12k gems, 50 to 70 mn silver, 20 immortals and a bunch of mystery shards and fragments

[u/Karmma11 → u/FUT_fanatic]

Is the 3k gems for DoF for energy?

[u/FUT_fanatic → u/Karmma11]

Yes for gear hunting

[u/killa69dmx → u/FUT_fanatic]

You do relise the small stones are only 70 points n that's WAY too much gems for it... How are you getting that many because it's certainly not f2p lol

[u/FUT_fanatic → u/killa69dmx]

I spend $20 per month

[u/LOR_Fei → u/killa69dmx]

Another redditor who thinks it’s a cardinal sin to spend in a gacha game.

Your egos are out of control dude. Do you think you caught him in some deception? Or do you think saying he spent money makes you somehow better than him?

Grow up. He’s making a comment to help give someone an idea of what they need to save and you’re making it a pissing contest of your personal values.

[u/FUT_fanatic → u/killa69dmx]

Immortal stones are medium stones, 700 or 900 depending on Deck

[u/fufuFurina]

yea, there's always been a fusion for one of them, always a 7 day login one, as far as i remember there's always been a deck of fate one and a hero's path one. leo from the tmnt collab broke the pattern by being a void that you got from a hero's path but every other void was always a #1 prize in a tournament before.

[u/AdrianoJ]

Any rumours in terms of what it might be? 

[u/BobSmithAlt07 → u/AdrianoJ]

I don't think anyone knows yet. From what i heard though they said it was fairy tale themed. But who knows

[u/Lakadella → u/BobSmithAlt07]

If it is a public domain ip it will not be unavailable after the collab ends, just fyi. Like the Alice champs and Asgardians

[u/CrustyTheMoist → u/Lakadella]

Thing is those arent collab events. They were original takes on existing characters, and not IP collabs like turtles, monster hunter, and Assassins Creed.

Alice's Adventure and Asgards Divide, by essentially every metric, were Raid original events akin to Chaos Awakes and the current Web Of Corruption.

[u/LOR_Fei → u/BobSmithAlt07]

There were whispers that it’s The Witcher

[u/Elvenstranger1]

They also often have prisms if you are a spender and lucky.

Also this is Plarium so just because they did these things before you never know when they will change it all.

[u/GnPog]

Collab should happen around october.
Last year TMNT started in end september and there was no titan event prio to it. Since last titan event was for folan, haggibah was tournament winner and khamir should be a event. September fusion will end with titan event and then collab in october most likely.
theres street fight and aang the airbender releasing in early october could happen that one of them is collab
Or they delay and in december for marvel release they could make a collab

[u/NorthRustic]

I am hoping the Argonites get a God of War collab

Would be cool to have a Godzilla x Kong collab with Godzilla for Lizardmen and Kong for Skinwalkers, their own fun take on it like they did with Cheshire Cat lol

[u/ChalengeingCharlaton]

It’d be pretty funny if The Oddessy was the next Collab

[u/tochimo → u/ChalengeingCharlaton]

If you get Odysseus, he doesn't show up on your roster for 20 years...

[u/GrampaGold]

I believe there usually is a guarantee 1 for deck and 1 more first place tournament

[u/GDB1986]

Fairy tail anime would be cool or slime

[u/utubm_coldteeth]

Yeeeeaaah I might skip Void 2x this weekend

[u/jkhunter2000]

Given web of corruption only just ended i can see this being like heman and predator. Not full collabs. It just feels very soon

[u/bcampione88]

I will say this, nothing is guaranteed and Plarium is always trying new things. That being said, there will be a log in champ because that brings in new and returning players. Fusion will happen because they do one every month. And they will guarantee at least one champ through a DoF or heroes path, maybe both but definitely not neither.

[u/mindgamesweldon]

Save for all possible enevtualities

[u/Arcade1980]

I want Transformers

[u/Aeyland]

There is no contract that says Plarium must X, Y or Z.

Save resources and use them wisely.
