I love the new BQ, I get 26k exp everyday, so it takes me only 5 day to gain 100 stat points, which is amazing!

I still think that boss challenger should drop an item from their loot, even randomly, so you have 1 chance per day or whatever..

The only think that makes me sad is to see that now I can beat all the retired challengers that I couldn't beat when they released >_<

Again chiming in on the weird button/link situation with the needless extra steps. Who would come up with such a stupid layout and how hard can it be to keep/revert to the old style?!!!

We have a larger pool of challengers than before, why do we get the same ones 3 times in a row? EVERY DAY. Something must be wrong with the random choice generator there.

My 1-year GA problem also has not been addressed yet. How do I get reimbursed? The 10 extra Battlequest XP, my sole reason for GA has been taken away. Others have said, they will not renew their GA therefore, which is an option for them, however I have already paid until August!?

I agree with GA stuff. Its such a bullshit excuse to give us "skips" as a perk.

And as for the pool of challengers, there's a relatively small pool right now, but the BAs are supposed to add challengers to it "soon." I honestly dont know why it takes so long, but thats what it is.

Well, I do like that for the first 15 quests I can use my "lower" two pets. I just switch who starts off every day so their experience gain will be even between them. They don't have as much exp. points as my main battler does.

Then for 16, 17, and 18 I use my main battle pet. However, the skip does nothing for me as apparently The Hustler has his butt parked at level 19?

So yeah, I really don't see how the skips are a perk when you get the exact same challenger you wanted to skip in the first place.

Hustler isn't always quest 19, though I will admit that it is frustrating to use a skip only to get the same challenger again (it especially doesn't help when you are trying to find out if a certain challenger appears in the new BQs or not).

To think until the revamped BQs, I never even noticed how few non-Cash Shop tier 11+ challengers we have.

I wonder if having an old bqs xp earning system may be a presented as an opt-in GA perk. Like say more chances of getting 50+ % of a opponent xp and peaking at rarer chances of getting 70-80% . It would be shitty for lvl 1-10 but over the top for the rest.

I finally found that out last night. I was able to beat quest 20. Didn't even need to use the skip. :) That did ruin my streak though. He had been at quest 19 for me ever since the BQs changed. I was wondering there if The Hustler was having fun trolling me. lol Nice to see, he was.

As said above: The randomizing really does suck though. I've had a chain of the same challenger like 3-4 times in a row, no using skips either. Though I guess it isn't that bad since they all give the same experience depending on the quest level. Really isn't that different from the old BQs of getting the same challenger a few times in a row.

So I've been thinking about this a bit. And this may have been suggested already, haven't checked back in a few pages.

Before the slight update to the quests (Skipping, exp per battle) I was getting a battle token for EVERY fight. Not sure if it was luck, or they were just handing them out, but for me, at least, I'd much rather get a battle token for every quest instead of a weapon. The weapons are only being given out because Maleria asks for them, but I read that shops are restocking a lot more to try to ... do something for the economy.

So why not nix the weapons as prizes, let people restock their own damn weapons for Maleria, and give out a bit of exp and a battle token for each battle. Maybe even bring back the small sP reward, to help with healing costs.

I even feel that some of the boss challengers that can be fought outside of BQs are not even worth being bosses. I mean, Recycle Beast is definitely not harder than Hustler and yet he's a boss. Likewise, I feel Daemon could be in the regular opponent pool rather than the boss pool (Mama Mush, Wyrmgear, and Prodigy should all stay bosses though). I kind of wonder if something like that could at least better opponent variety.[edit]Pinged the wrong user.

A few days ago my pet lost a battle quest fight and it counted as a loss in his stats. As wins aren't counted it seems a little unfair to count the loss. Was this a glitch?

this was likely because instead of navigating back through battle quests to fight the opponent again, you fought it through the challenge an opponent page in the BC, which would rightfully count as a lose.

I am definite I entered the battle through the battle quest link and not the opponent page, but thank you for the suggestion.

there used to be a challenge this opponent again button that would link you through the challenger page link, not the BQ link which makes a difference, so even though you may not have visited the page, and only navigated through the battle quest dialogue, it would still not count as a BQ win or lose. if you're absolutely positive that's not the case, file a ticket, but it's not really possible to have gotten a loss if you only clicked the challenger from the BQ page since it generates its own BQ specific link.

Thank you for your help. I do understand your points.

I am confident that I entered the battle through the battle quest route so I am not sure how this happened but it is very reassuring to know it shouldn't work that way.

Thank you for your help and good luck battling.

I'm bored with these now. Can we go back to the old way? Thanks! Doing these seem to be more like a chore now. & The same hardness level 5 times in a row is boring me. Putting me to sleep even. Yay! I get more EXP, But id rather get less, than to face the same level 5 times in a row.

lol, they need to expand the list of challengers in each difficulty tier! The only more interesting challengers are the boss battles :D I hope they already know this and are working on adding other challengers we had in the past.

I like the revamped BQs overall in contrast to the initial launch, save for a few quirks like GE in the wrong place and some improvements to the user interface.

For some odd reason since the BQ revamp now after you beat an opponent outside of bq the button to go back the colliseum has disappeared o.O so now I have to go back to games then colliseum. Very Odd

I got Hustler as a challenger for every quest from 16 through 19. 4 consecutive quests is just a bit outrageous - even if my best battle pet can beat him easily. I think the challengers should definitely be more random.

I agree with what many others have posted here- getting the same challenger 2-3 times in a row is frustrating and makes the "skip" option pretty useless. I may be able to beat almost all of the extremely hard challengers, but getting something like Sandragon twice in a row defeats the purpose of me using the skip.

Could more retired challengers be added to the queue? This may help prevent so many repeats from happening.

And am I going crazy or did this come back for a few days, and then disappear again? I could have sworn it was back last week, and now it's gone again.

It's annoying the shit out of me, I really wish someone would take the time to code that linkback back onto the regular battle pages.

It's been awhile now that it's been missing, and I think the argument could be made that it's a pretty important linkback. Sometimes small fixes go a long way towards boosting the morale of the userbase :P
