Just a quick question, how come blood rains ebs aren't considered as unlocks? I mean they are harder than actual unlocks so surely they should count as an unlock right?
Blood rains are about plunder bonuses, not about the ebs themselves. Plus, if they were unlocks, you wouldn't be unlocking them in order and you wouldn't be able to run the eb if they weren't unlocked yet.
The original plan for the bloodstains was to re-lock the epics so players could enjoy unlocking their epic battles as often as they like.
It wouldn't have to actually unlock the next eb up I mean just as in it would show you have done the eb in clan achievements
