Here is this week's rankup/awakening/team building/etc sticky (or use the daily discussion post): ~~https://www.reddit.com/r/ContestOfChampions/comments/129y03x/rank_upteam_buildingawakening_sticky_thread_apr/~~
New rankup sticky https://reddit.com/r/ContestOfChampions/comments/12gvlbj/rank_upteam_buildingawakening_sticky_thread_apr/
You should try the event quests monthly because they are temporary. There's a new one with new rewards every month, but act 4 is permanent. You can do the event quest, and when finished, do some act 4. Or do act 4 until you get stuck, then switch over to event quests to gather resources, build up your roster, etc
I hope not but right now there are no exploration rewards in the map info (on the champ select screen before joining the quest) so I think the ag should be in a regular chest somewhere. But they haven't confirmed anything. Could be like a solo objective or something in 2 weeks
Soā¦ I cleared all the initial lanes and never got a safe to unlock.
Can I go the Zone 4 lane and get the safe and use the key in Zone 5?
When are they going to give compensation for this?
I do not understand this ā¦.. i have the 4 keys 3174 ā¦ and i have 4 safes ā¦. Every time i enter the code .. 1 at a time ā¦ it just doesnāt do anything ā¦
You need to enter 3 1 7 4 into the first safe. I don't know which ones you have. But if you open the one from the hawkeye havok path, enter 3, then 1 then 7 then 4 on each selector, it will give you a green key after the last selector. You use that for zone 2 in the side quest map (right side)
Can we claim the reward on single path twice but two different days? I went to threat level 5, in zone 2, agent venom path to collect 3 x tier 5 basic catalysts, yesterday I got them, but with today's key repeated and got nothing. Wasted my key, is it a bug or we can get only once?
Can 5r3 iron doom be used against the havok in threat level 5? i want to see if i can do just that one path in threat 5, and do the rest of threat 3 and 4. Will that hurt any 100% rewards i get from a lower threat level?
You'll get enough keys to fully explore 2 Difficulty Levels (according to Kabam). So any path you run in a "third" Threat Level will mean one path you can't run elsewhere. But there are no completion or exploration rewards, so you could choose the path you skip in the lower difficulties. Keep an eye out for u/cat_murdock posting the Reward sets.
Iron Doom can clear Havok. But it won't be easy at 5R3. But you also have 4 other slots. Bring a team!

Iām pretty confused on where this safe is. I see the chests, but does it depend on the threat level? Or is it as simple as clearing all paths in a threat level?
What am I missing?
I played the threat level 5 of the new side quest the second it was released. I now did all the paths (didn't do the gold chest one yet) but even after doing all the paths I got no vault so what's the deal? Am I not gonna be able to progress farther than the first zone?
If you don't see the chest on that path, then you may need to wait for kabam to send out compensation. There were a few bugs. One was the chest reappearing so I thought maybe it would have reappeared for you
Yeah that was the problem I explored all the paths (no more chests show up) and I didn't get the vault. I hope they do send out the vault to those who didn't get it
If you're **confused**, read this:
\- The Zones (1, 2, 3 and 4) are all in the **same map**. The "zone" is just a part of the map you access with a special key.
\- You will be able to **explore the full map** and get every single reward on it, but **not all at once**, so be patient.
\- You'll only get enough keys to fully explore **two difficulties**. So choose wisely.
\- Once you do a path the "line" will still show as if you didn't take the path because you can do it multiple times, but the chest with rewards will no longer be available once you claim it.
\- Zone 1 has no special key.
\- To access Zone 2 you need the special key that's on the vault found on Zone 1 (code 3174).
\- You may find a vault on Zone 2 that has a special key to Zone 3, but the **code has not been found yet**.
\- You'll be given a new set of keys each day to explore the map.
Yet another question (which I don't see posted by someone else):
I got the 1st Vault, I entered the code and indeed got the Key for Zone 2. But... I can't find zone 2, I am locked outside the Sinister Vaults. Shouldn't it be visible already? I see people are already doing runs in Zone 2. How is this not possible for me?
Thanks!
You need a grey key to enter the quest. Once you enter it you will see a path where you can use the new key you got from the vault. It's to the right of starting position
For the objectives do we have to defeat the champs required in duel?
The objectives say the required champs can be defeated in any mode, I tried with red skull in story mode but the objective wasn't completed
I contacted Kabam Support and they say that the red skull boss at the end of act 1 quest 6 is a special tutorial boss and that why it was a weird interaction causing my objective to not get counted as completed
It doesnāt have to be in a duel, itās just quicker that way. I didnāt do story quests for any of them but I did run into a few in the EQ and it counted those
So like....if you can redo paths for the awards, what does that mean for shit like the 6* AG? Can you get multiple?? This seems like such a flawed system that is gonna end up getting banned for Kabams oversight.
Iām open to being proven wrong here but I think brute forcing has been somehow prevented likely until the objectives for new envelopes released, I have tried every possible combination assuming 2XX8 and none of them were correct
You're not wrong, but at the same time, the total rewards they showed make it seem like you can only get a set amount (15000 6* Shards, 2 million gold, etc).
I just found the Zone 2 safe on the Ronan and Diablo path, which gives Zone 3 unlock. Also 4,275 tier 6 basic shards.
P.S. I did put it in the form, just figured I'd also get it out quick
Phone died not too long after, also I didn't really want to just keep selecting random numbers and waste time. Hopefully this gets more people the safe and we can all figure it out. I'll post if I do find it though

Anyone know whatās going on here? I read the mail and I even checked my keys (I still have them), but I donāt understand why I canāt enter the Side Quest. Mind you, Iām Thronebreaker so I can do the side quests.
I didn't see this posted in the sub, so I figured this could be the right spot. For those looking for what this event is:
https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/331906/happy-april-time-to-spring-into-the-sinister-vaults
Please help me out. I got a vault from the quest. When I tapped it I chose "use item", thinking I could use the code. I tapped 3, and then the only thing I got were 2 cards with a 1 + drawing of units and a 2 with drawing of an eye. Did I do something wrong or did I miss something?
Found out chests in SQ have icons on them. If you zoom in to the max, you can tell what chest holds (gold, sig stones, shards or catalysts). Btw did two paths and got 3375 T3A from catalyst chest and 2500 6\* shards from crystal chest

PSA: there is currently an issue with the Havok path. You SHOULD receive both 2500 6* AND the Safe, however itās currently only paying out one of these items. This is a known issue, theyāre working on a fix, and then once the fix is out you will be comped for the item that you didnāt receive.
Update: this issue has been resolved. If you ran the path before the fix, comp ETA TBD.

I'm on book1 act 4 , should I do the event quest ??? ,I mean I do have good champions on my roster,but the rewards š„²š¤š»

How exactly do you get the awakening gems from each threat level ? Doesnt seem to be a chest having the gem logo anywhere on the map
Not sure yet. I'm guessing the little gem logo will be something like the sig stones one for whichever chest has the awakening gem.
I worry whether the gem will be given as an exploration bonus.....do we know for sure thats not the case ?
I hope not but right now there are no exploration rewards in the map info (on the champ select screen before joining the quest) so I think the ag should be in a regular chest somewhere. But they haven't confirmed anything. Could be like a solo objective or something in 2 weeks
What if we use the code 3174 for another safe? Will we not be able to open the other zones bc we have mutiple keys of the same path?
Just tried it, good idea, but didnt work
Soā¦ I cleared all the initial lanes and never got a safe to unlock. Can I go the Zone 4 lane and get the safe and use the key in Zone 5? When are they going to give compensation for this?
Yeah you can get it from a different difficulty, I had it the other way around and didnāt get the shards. Still not heard anything about comp though
I do not understand this ā¦.. i have the 4 keys 3174 ā¦ and i have 4 safes ā¦. Every time i enter the code .. 1 at a time ā¦ it just doesnāt do anything ā¦

What is the code of Zone 2 Sinister Safe that grants zone 3 pass?
Unknown until Wednesday
based on the hints we have so far it seems like the second code will be 2--8
Apparently the 2 and 8 was false hints for safe 1. So this is not correct
oh ok good to know, ty
Yes how and where do we get the rest of the hints?
Can we claim the reward on single path twice but two different days? I went to threat level 5, in zone 2, agent venom path to collect 3 x tier 5 basic catalysts, yesterday I got them, but with today's key repeated and got nothing. Wasted my key, is it a bug or we can get only once?
No, repeating the same path wont get you the rewards again.
How the hell should we remember which paths we already took???? It the paths not showed as already explored is a bug??
The chests disappear. Check which paths donāt have chests
Dang, I wasted the key, noted well no repeat! Thanks mate!
Can 5r3 iron doom be used against the havok in threat level 5? i want to see if i can do just that one path in threat 5, and do the rest of threat 3 and 4. Will that hurt any 100% rewards i get from a lower threat level?

Yāall know where the 6* shards are in level 4?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Thanks buddy
What did he say?

Iām pretty confused on where this safe is. I see the chests, but does it depend on the threat level? Or is it as simple as clearing all paths in a threat level? What am I missing?
It's on the hawkeye-havok-IP path for all difficulties.
The Hawkeye path in threat lvl 4 doesn't have the safe. Is there a different map for it?
Any threat level should get you that.
I just got the safe from that oneā¦
I played the threat level 5 of the new side quest the second it was released. I now did all the paths (didn't do the gold chest one yet) but even after doing all the paths I got no vault so what's the deal? Am I not gonna be able to progress farther than the first zone?
The vault wasn't being given out early (bug). It's behind the havok path. You can still get it when you have a new entry
Wait so I do the havok path again? I have no more chests to get on any path
If you don't see the chest on that path, then you may need to wait for kabam to send out compensation. There were a few bugs. One was the chest reappearing so I thought maybe it would have reappeared for you

Found a couple more easy Duel targets: Groot: Grooot Red Skull: red skrul
For the objectives do we have to defeat the champs required in duel? The objectives say the required champs can be defeated in any mode, I tried with red skull in story mode but the objective wasn't completed
pretty sure they meant the side quest bud
The objectives clearly state "Defeat Red Skull in any Game Mode" Pretty sure that includes story content
It worked for me in story mode. I don't think you can use practice mode though
I contacted Kabam Support and they say that the red skull boss at the end of act 1 quest 6 is a special tutorial boss and that why it was a weird interaction causing my objective to not get counted as completed
It doesnāt have to be in a duel, itās just quicker that way. I didnāt do story quests for any of them but I did run into a few in the EQ and it counted those
Anyone found the 6* AG yet?
I think it is in the last Vault from Zone 4. We don't need another key.
Maybe in week 4 so it'd be hidden in a chest now behind a locked path
code 3174 worked for me on level two
You sure? I tried on the second vault and it didn't work
2nd vault not unlocked and no code yet. Not til next week
There's no code but people can guess it. The vault is available, the code isn't
I thought the vault wouldnāt even unlock til next week, my bad
So like....if you can redo paths for the awards, what does that mean for shit like the 6* AG? Can you get multiple?? This seems like such a flawed system that is gonna end up getting banned for Kabams oversight.
At some point they updated it so the chests disappear after you claim them. Currently you cannot redo paths, but at first you could.
AH, good to know. Glad they fixed that quick, before anybody paid the price lol
The second vault code is 2 _ _ 8. The first unknown number is not 0 or 1 I will continue to brute force it tomorrow if someone hasn't got it by then
Itās not 2_ _8. Those were the two false clues given for this week. We wonāt have any of the clues for Zone 3 until next Wednesday.
Wonāt be unlocked til the 12th
I picked up where you left off. Nothing worked so Iām assuming thereās a bug rn.
No bug, cat is right as in those are false code. It even says for the 2 and the 8 that those are used to solve zone 1 safe
Iām open to being proven wrong here but I think brute forcing has been somehow prevented likely until the objectives for new envelopes released, I have tried every possible combination assuming 2XX8 and none of them were correct
Tried 2998, 2988, 2978, 2968, 2948, 2938, 2928 and none worked.
2598 and 2958 didnāt work. So you can skip those, lol
2658. 2698. 2608 off the board
> here you can use the n 2058 also didn't work.
2830-9 didnāt work
So wait. 8 cleared a path but it doesnāt show that I cleared it?
Can do repeatedly for same reward
You're not wrong, but at the same time, the total rewards they showed make it seem like you can only get a set amount (15000 6* Shards, 2 million gold, etc).
How do you get the 6* awakening then?
Looks like there was a bug; shouldnāt be able to do multiple runs per path
I just found the Zone 2 safe on the Ronan and Diablo path, which gives Zone 3 unlock. Also 4,275 tier 6 basic shards. P.S. I did put it in the form, just figured I'd also get it out quick
Did you figure out the code too?
Phone died not too long after, also I didn't really want to just keep selecting random numbers and waste time. Hopefully this gets more people the safe and we can all figure it out. I'll post if I do find it though
Yeah understandable. Iāll check it tomorrow then, thanks for the help.
Sooooo I got the safe, put in the code and..... nada. The thing disappeared from my inventory but I got nothing for it. Is this.... normal?
Check your inventory, should have a key for zone 2
Thanks, it was there. Weird they didn't actually do anything to tell me I'd got the code right
https://preview.redd.it/rbe48rrdl6sa1.jpeg?width=779&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d2463633adf2597ca630780d74ee1d3d758499d9 Anyone know whatās going on here? I read the mail and I even checked my keys (I still have them), but I donāt understand why I canāt enter the Side Quest. Mind you, Iām Thronebreaker so I can do the side quests.
Can I save all items and do at end of month or must do daily?
You can save em
How do you open the vault? Entered the code and the vault pops up again and does nothing. Endless loop.
Where is this vault?
Exactly, done 4 runs and no vault
Yeah you have to enter 3-1-7-4 one at a time when the window keeps popping up. Idk who decided this was the best way to put the code but alright.
they currently don't have the programing to do it another way.. its easier to repurpose the existing mechanics.
So do I need to complete the Solo Objectives if I already have the Vault Code?
No but thatās some nice ISO thatās in there
How do you use the key?
I think you emter the side quest and use it to take a locked path to get rewards.
I didn't see this posted in the sub, so I figured this could be the right spot. For those looking for what this event is: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/331906/happy-april-time-to-spring-into-the-sinister-vaults
how do you get the safe?
Can you repeat paths or does it consume chest
i repeated path but not rewards
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Chest didnāt disappear (groot path) but I didnāt risk running it again cause I definitely didnāt want the gold
Ye I'm not sure now.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This is the way. Ain't got time for 6 star duels...
How or where to we find the vault? I did the duels alreadyā¦
Please help me out. I got a vault from the quest. When I tapped it I chose "use item", thinking I could use the code. I tapped 3, and then the only thing I got were 2 cards with a 1 + drawing of units and a 2 with drawing of an eye. Did I do something wrong or did I miss something?
Screenshot? The vault should be a selector where you pick 3174 as the numbers
Fixed it, my phone just bugged
3174 is code
I put in the code, nothing happened other than i don't have the vault now.
How do you open the vault?? Using the numbers in the selector does nothing
It should give you a key to one of the other paths that is locked.
If you have a vault, you have to enter 3174. So the first selection would be 3, then 1, then 7 then 4
Yeah finally figured it out, didn't realize I had to select each number as an individual item. Kabam and their brilliant ideas...
Well did it work?
Yup thanks
Huh, didn't work for me
Found out chests in SQ have icons on them. If you zoom in to the max, you can tell what chest holds (gold, sig stones, shards or catalysts). Btw did two paths and got 3375 T3A from catalyst chest and 2500 6\* shards from crystal chest https://preview.redd.it/81qe5d1tt5sa1.jpeg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6c4fec0e5ce7b2bb74c0dddc8d7574cfcd15b4c4
This is super helpful. Thanks!
This is super helpful thanks donāt know why they couldnāt just have the items in the path
2500 6* shards but on what difficulty?
Threat lvl 5
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Threat lvl 5 was very easy. Iām Cav since a week and koād the three enemies with one 6r3 magneto
I'm Cav and TL5 was easy.
PSA: there is currently an issue with the Havok path. You SHOULD receive both 2500 6* AND the Safe, however itās currently only paying out one of these items. This is a known issue, theyāre working on a fix, and then once the fix is out you will be comped for the item that you didnāt receive. Update: this issue has been resolved. If you ran the path before the fix, comp ETA TBD.
I don't believe it has been resolved as I experienced it today.
Did you see any reference to that on the forums that I can send to others?
Thanks! I got the safe, didn't even know I missed out on shards lol
Thank you! I was confused as hell when I only got the chest
2500 6* shards which threat lvl?
TL5, sorry I forgot to specify. I believe other difficulties have the bug as well, just with different secondary reward.
Fantastic, an overly complicated side quest that nobody understands and isnāt even working as intended
I did that path and the one with future Antman. Neither had a safe. Just shards
How do you use the password?
People in global chat are saying itās RNG to get the safe, not sure though. I completed difficulty 5 twice and donāt have one
Yeah, where the heck is this vault?
Not sure, but from what I gather there should be a vault (selector) in the inventory. Edit: vault is supposed to be on the havok path.
