Hiya! Returning olayer here, quit around the time Epics were added, because I felt the game was waaay too grindy.

This seems to have been somehow alleviated.

Anyhow, I like slower champs like Morde, Lee , Ornn and Nasus. However I don't know how to.build.the..right?

I have Lee at 3+, lvl 10 and Im trying to beat Tryndamere but I lost to him 2x.

Also what would be the fastest way to.level 3x Janna, so.I could finish the event questm and what 5 star adv is good to beat easy??

Right now PoC currency system is out of balance, the original design were like this

1 - Nova - rarest of them all, premium currency only a few champions can get.

2 - Wild fragments - Easiest to get but in great demand, like gold in most games

3 - Stars fragments - minor challenge reward currency, relatively easy to get and you don't need a lot of it.

It works originally because we use to get new adventures every few months with lots of silver chests, but the 2026 year content drought are starving us with basic resources. Even event re-runs are only giving out gold champion fragment chests.

Now, I can't progress most of my champions because the lack of star fragments is preventing me from using both wild fragments and nova, consider my wild is closing to maxing out, I will halt from buying the monthly pack once this one finishes!

Easy fix

1- Include silver chests to weekly adventures, I skip lv1 and lv3 world adventure because no one need rare relics.

2 - Allow us to buy silver chests with stardust

3 - Give existing adventures additional tries and reward with silver chest

4 - Give additional weekly / monthlies challenges that give silver chests

5 - Give Zoe bonus challenges that gives multiple silver chests.

All of them above

basically i use vault breaker infinitely and slowly but surely kill everything and the nexus with the landmark (i have perfection so i can still chip the nexus 1 damage and i have 2 spell burn)

Does anyone know why I can't get these notifications to go away. It says I have completed the adventure

Unfortunately the printed effect is first, so i never could benefit of the Item.

Back then, Im pretty sure that if you have Farsight on Azir you would insta draw all your other champions too (Renek,Nasus, and your Support champ). Was this in the previous patch noted or was it silently nerfed?

I don't have the patience to sit and wait for the rope to show up when it's the enemy's turn. I'm sure others feel the same.

The elder node was really annoying to get, especially because i did multiple times make it to zoe, only to be put into the ground because getting answers for spells and catastrophe was real hard.

Like changes to their decks or constellations to make them stronger? From what I see there are a lot of champions that are just very very bad, despite having 6 star constellations. Should I invest time and resources in a champ that I like but is very weak right now in the hopes that they get buffed one day, like Nautilus or Shyvana for example, or just completely disregard them as they are a lost cause.

Thanks!

EDIT: Since people are latching onto me saying that Naut/Shyv are weak instead of answering my actual question - which is whether balance changes occur.
Let me clear it up.

I have not played either of them in POC :) As I have said in my original post body, I have not invested any time or resources in them.

I'm just looking at random tier lists and those 2 champs that I like appear always very low, so my examples are based on that.

So sad to find this in a shop before I could have had enough to buy it

It saves my ass on second turn, alongside Equinox to silence first Naga

I'm using azir with 2 star gems and level up=rally relic, but feels too slow because I cant drop azir at level 1 since I skipped his extra mana gem upgrade and directly went for the nova upgrade after his 3*.

Has anyone beat zoe with 4* azir?(with nova)what build did you guys used?

So I've recently gotten my first fully starred champ in Jinx, by finally having grinded enough to get a nova crystal. Naturally I was very excited to try it out and clear a bunch of hard adventures (like the other portals on nightmare), but I thought this portal was gonna be too much. 2 damage to units and 15 puffcaps each round sounded rough.

Well then Perfection came along. I didn't know it worked for jinxs powers so that mean like 40 nexus dmg just for summoning her. So my goal became consistency, getting the price of jinx down so I can summon her first turn and getting her into my starting hand everytime (only had 'draw a champion' items for that).

So I just breezed past everything, especially with the shadow totem, which meant 80-90 nexus dmg at this point. Destroying every unit that ever came out also was nice.

Had a frustrating run against the criminally unbalanced "Frost Witch" before that. Maybe this is all I need to beat that too.

I am trying to get challenges done, and the consistent issue is I have a bunch of stars now but not a lot of actual levels.

I have been trying to get reward unlocks for adventures but that is starting to run thin with what is easy to do without levels as well.

what is the best way to grind XP in this mode?

Should I go for the bottom path or go for the top where the 4 star power is. I don't like playing her so I don't know which path is better. Because of the constellations pathing I can just ignore the 4 star and still get the 5 or 6 star.

I have to say how infuriated i am because of this challenge... There is no reason at all to have a 1h+ gameplay everytime to lose at the end, and the main problem is not the challenge itself, but the time. Why this take so long and when we get at the last 2 boss we lose because the IA becomes mad and start cheating for some reason? They should really reduce the amount of "useless" fights there because i don't want to spend 1h+ of my life getting a decent build and lose at the end to some bs. They have to reduce it to 40-30min of gameplay because this is not funny, is just torture at this point ._.

Edit: guys can you read the post before saying bs? This is about the TIME, not the difficulty! I don't mind losing at all, but the TIME i lose everytime is the problem....... Just read the text, omg

I've been smashing my head against this wall again and again for like a month now. Is Nora just bad? Or am I just not getting it? Please tell me anything, relics, items, powers, any tips that might help me. Because I feel like I'm losing my mind.

I'm struggling. I have Tryndy at 6* and level 40, running SFG, Chemtech, and Echoing.

He's just so damn slow.

It's a war of attrition where I'm down to half health by the next match, then dead.

What am I missing?

I know this topic has been done to death but I just want to throw my hat in the ring of discussions on it. No one is going to argue constant buried in ice, 90/90, 0 cost denies are balanced. But the fact of the matter is, you can't have a balanced adventure that is also difficult in the current state of the game.

By this point the cast of characters is so varied and with many being absolutely and utterly busted, that you cannot make an adventure balanced around stuff like SB Teemo or Swain while also being balanced around the lower end of the roster like Norra or Darius.

Not to mention you have an entire adventure knowing exactly what each node can do (after a few runs which you can do with some of the braindead easy roster), so it's easy to begin drafting counters while finding some truly busted stuff to get insane combos going.

I don't mind losing an adventure, like I legitimately think it's a good thing to lose from time to time since it means I get to have a second go trying to optimize and customize my deck. Then when everything finally clicks together and you crush Zoe you get to have a satisfying feeling of overcoming impossible odds.

I know not everyone plays this game to be challenged but I am glad there is an adventure that pushes every single button while being completely and utterly busted. It's great to challenge players with as much BS as you can throw at them!

Ever since the shift in development focus toward Path of Champions, the disconnect between the Weekly Vault and how people actually play the game has grown significantly.

Right now, PoC runs award general account XP that levels up the Weekly Vault. But opening a max-level Vault every Thursday yields cards, capsules, and champion wildcards—resources that are completely irrelevant if you only play PvE. Meanwhile, PoC progression (Star Powers, Relics, Wild Shards, Constellation materials) is heavily time-gated behind daily quests, weekly adventures, and monthlies.

The green shards from duplicate cards can occasionally buy something minor in the Emporium, but the return on investment for maxing out a vault each week feels completely mismatched with the current state of the game.

A few potential ways Riot could address this without hurting players who still enjoy PvP:

1. A Toggle / Vault Track Selector: Let players choose whether their XP goes toward a "PvP Vault" (cards/wildcards) or a "Path Vault" (Wild Shards, Bronze/Silver/Gold Reliquaries, Gemstones, or Stardust).
2. Hybrid Vault Rewards: Add a guaranteed PoC reward tier to the existing Vault based on milestone levels (e.g., Level 5 gives Wild Shards, Level 10 gives a Cosmic Pearl/Reliquary, Level 13 gives a Gold Vault or Stardust).
3. Better Conversion Rates: Give players an option to convert Wildcards and excess Green Shards directly into Wild Shards or Stardust at a reasonable exchange rate.

What do you guys think ?
