Summoners!Let’s take a trip way back in time! Back to a time where a maniacal machine was on the path to destroying the Battlerealm, but several courageous Champions and Summoners stopped his rampage!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 Battle Realm and the Contest of Champions. We want to give Veteran Summoners a way to relive those moments, and to give Summoners 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 40 and up. This version features extreme 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/ Each Chapter of Variant Difficulty requires that you only bring Champions from 2 specific classes. These Quests will test not only your skills, but your knowledge of Champion’s abilities, immunities, resistances, and counters! Those who rely on only a few Champions will find the need to diversify, even outside of the Champion Requirements in place.Remember Summoners, Variant Difficulty is going to be HARD! We’re stressing the use of a varied roster in this iteration. The good news is that Back Issues are permanent content, so if you’re not able to take Variant Difficulty on right now, take all the time you need and come back to it when you feel you are better equipped!As the name suggests, this is our first iteration of our Back Issue Quests. Our goal is to periodically release more Event Quests for our Summoners to relive! Keep an eye out as we go back and explore more of the history of the Contest of Champions!For completing and mastering all of thequests, you earn:Tier 2 Generic ISO x4Tier 3 Generic ISO x22Tier 4 Generic ISO x6Gold x12250Units x225Tier 1 Alpha Catalyst x1Premium Hero Crystal x33-Star Hero Crystal x1For completing and mastering all of thequests, you earn:5-Star Rank 2 → 3 Gem Crystal x35-Star Rank 3 → 4 Gem Crystal (2015 Champions Only) x35-Star Rank 3 → 4 Gem Crystal x15-Star Rank 4 → 5 Gem Crystal x15-Star Awakening Gem Crystal x15-Star Crystal x2Tier 5 Basic Catalyst Fragments x216006-Star Crystal Shards x22505-Star Signature Stone Crystal x48Gold x2,100,000Units x360You’re probably wondering about those 5-Star Rank 3 → 4 Gems for 2015 Champions only.
