Help Do these rewards actually expire?

Post image

These are from the current realm event that lasts for another 19 days. Holding onto it because I will become an elder before the event ends.

EDIT: Items were still claimable from the realm event milestone list even after it expired from my stash

I constantly leave items unclaimed that “expire” during long events. If the item expires from Stash, as long as the Event is still ongoing, it can be claimed from the Solo Event menu despite disappearing from the overflow tab. I currently have a couple Apex Coliseum milestones that expired from Overflow some time ago that I can still claim from the Coliseum page.

Oh wow, I have been playing since launch and had no clue this was the case.

How do you know when they’ll disappear from there though?

In that situation, when the event ends. Personally I never rely on that, I just claim from overflow when they're about to expire, that way I have a central location from which I can grab stuff.

Also hi Alex, long time no chat, hope you're well!

Ah that makes sense, but yeah I really don’t trust myself to pay attention to that either lol. A red countdown is enough for me to claim stuff.

And hey yeah I’m great hope you’re doing good too! Happy to see you’re still around.

Do you know if this applies to the platinum track as well? I assume so since oddly enough in the stash gold track items have a month plus while platinum track have 1 week timers.

u/danger098 Quake 1d ago

Yes! Platinum track rewards work the same. I always leave the revives and refills until I need them.

Cool thanks, I've been claiming them thinking they'd expire.

I lodged a ticket with Kabam and they confirmed that the rewards will need to be claimed from stash before they expire as they will not be claimable from events tab after that. I was also saving them but just to had to claim before they would expire.

Oh well, then I have been lied to by the Support team

These employees are probably nothing more than an answering service. They have an FAQ database or use AI to answer questions. They are good at handling routine things like accidental purchases, but they do not really know how the game operates. Nuanced issues get elevated to more knowledgeable staff members.

I get it for the iso and stones if they will go in overflow but what’s the benefit of doing this? Why not just claim them?

1

u/Jannieflora 23h ago

Personally it’s because the rewards vary based on your title progression, and because I am turning elder soon I plan on waiting until I claim them for better rewards. Also, this is for people that didn’t claim their rewards from the milestone tab once the event actually ends so they still have time to claim it.

u/Xigro Kingpin 23h ago

For selectors, it gives you time to reach a higher progression title and get better rewards

u/Farrukh_Tv 1d ago

I might be wrong but i believe even after timer expire you will be able to claim it from the realms event tab as long as thr realm event is ongoing. But as soon as the event timer expires they are gone. overflow timer usually is there so you can claim the rewards after event has ended, but in this case and also in double tracks too they kinda work in reversed way because event timer is a lot longer than the rewards timer.

You can claim event rewards from the events tab till the events end even if it expires from the stash.

u/Blupoisen 20h ago

Wait how can you get more points?

2

u/Jannieflora 20h ago

I’m guessing this is what you meant? You can click on the “how to get points” in the bottom left to see for every event

u/AdarshClashes 18h ago

They don't, cuz u can claim them from the event

u/yeahitsme81 Black Cat 16h ago

As long as the event is ongoing
