I had been tracking Raid Boss Stats and Rewards in the following thread but I’ll continue to update here to consolidate the topic: > [@Update 1.2 - The Broken Tree](https://community.puzzlequest3.com/t/update-1-2-the-broken-tree/2593/84): > > So in a previous post I pointed out that Tiers XI, XII, and XIII (11, 12, and 13) have exactly the same rewards except for a small increase in shards but have increasing difficulty and damage thresholds. Tier XIV however did have increased rates for items including the introduction of Eveline Crystals to the loot table. Sadly however, we come to find out that Tier XV has exactly the same loot table as Tier XIV (with a small increase to possible shards; 70 instead of 65) and again wit… Here are the raid boss stats known to date: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/puzzlequest3/original/2X/c/cecdfded15ca4bde013165726f9d886ef42d544d.png) As mentioned previously, Tiers XI, XII, XIII have the exact same rewards except for a small increase of Superior Shards per Tier for the Silver and Gold Rewards. Now we have confirmed that Tiers XIV, XV, and XVI all have the same rewards except for a small increase of Superior Shards. So for several of these Tiers, you have no real benefit to progression but instead are actually penalized by succeeding as the reward threshold for Silver and Gold is increased in these Tiers with identical rewards. Just for reference here is the rewards for Tiers XV and XVI which are essentially identical to Tier XIV: ![Screenshot_20220831-220004_Puzzle Quest 3](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/puzzlequest3/original/2X/d/d98a1e8b63ac37d70a801a07a5d6d689e6a1729a.jpeg) ![Screenshot_20220904-072408_Puzzle Quest 3](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/puzzlequest3/original/2X/d/dcb95833d439f0e615761b8b4a329f1a5d4e56b6.jpeg) This is probably as far as we will be able to go. Are there Tiers after XVI? Would it even matter? 🤷 --- _[View the full topic](https://community.puzzlequest3.com/t/kingdom-defense-feedback-and-recommendations/2681)._
