This Event Quest is available in TWO difficulties:

The Variant Challenges!

Rewards:

Once upon a time, a mutant of incredible power sought to shatter the Battlerealm and free his kin through any means necessary. Surprisingly, the one who opposed him most greatly was himself!As the Contest has grown and evolved we’ve introduced many Event Quests, each with their own unique stories, and many that have expanded on the mythos of The Battlerealm and The Contest of Champions. We want to give Veteran Summoners a way to relive those moments, and newer ones that weren’t with us at the time a chance to experience the stories of the Contest that they had missed out on!difficulty is a recreation of the original quest. While not completely 1:1, the layouts, difficulty, and dialogue are all the same as you remember. Take a stroll down memory lane and see how far you've come, or experience a quest you never got the chance to play!difficulty is a new spin on the quest, available for Summoners level 45 and up. This version features more of a challenge, new opponents, updated map layouts, and new combat effects for the boss fights. This quest will test even the mightiest of Summoners, so be prepared! You can find out more about the challenges you will face in Variant Difficulty in our latest Dev Diary post here: https://playcontestofchampions.com/dev-diary-added-difficulty/ Variant Difficulty will test not only your skills, but your knowledge of Champion abilities, immunities, resistances, and counters! Those who rely on only a few Champions will find the need to diversify.Like Back Issues #2, we’re going to be encouraging the use of certain Champions. This time, you’ll want to take advantage of the Composite Construction (All Tech Champions in this fight are immune to Ability Accuracy Modification) and Stack Overflow (Each Tech Champion on the Attacker's Team increase the Attacker's Debuffs Duration by X%.) Global Nodes to boost the power of your Tech Champions!For even more of a power up, use the Mutant hunting Sentinel to take advantage of the brand new “Apex Manufacture” Global Node geared specifically to the Mutant hunting Sentinel! Apex Manufacture allows Sentinel to gain Analysis Charges even faster, and to deal bonus True Damage per Analysis Charge!Take a look at the new Buffs you’ll be combating or benefiting from:These are in addition to other nodes that you have already experienced.This Back Issue Quest features 6 Individual Quests over 3 Chapters, unlike Back Issues #1 and #2, which featured 9.
