New Marvel badges parity please for existing Garmin users.

New badges for Marvel watches are all repeatable and easy , this ruins the acheivement factor for those already collecting badges and striving for the harder ones, can we have parity for those already owning a non marvel Garmin device. Same challenges for non marvel devices or remove repeatability factor I'm not going to buy a new watch for a badge but excluded if I don't ? Already have edge1000 and va3 don't need a new device atm.

Big fan of new badges a great incentive to push on for me and would like more without the new device barrier.

At least if there is such a disparity they should not mix users with different watches in the same leader-board. It's like comparing apples with sausages right now.

Concur completely...

I 100% agree - it's a shame that theyre heading this way. I have had 3 Fenix watches (Fenix 5, 5+ and now the 6 Sapphire and there are no rewards just for having them (I don't expect any either). Just making a joke of the badges and points system.

I feel these other badges and watches are just aimed at the weak or kids? Not very fair or motivating.

How do you record walking as an activity?. I've manually added walking but can't get the new badge.

Manually created activities do not count for badges. You need to start a walk activity on your Garmin device. And you need five walk activities for the Walk the Walk badge.

I’d also agree with these, remove them from people who can’t get them and don’t have them count towards leaderboards.

you’d need 4 different watches to get those badges, unless you’re loaded and bored or some kind of collector of Marvel merch you’re never going to buy all 4.

I had a look at them when they were first released but the spec is a vivioactive I believe and I needed a fenix. I enjoy getting the badges and get annoyed that I can’t even filter out the ones I can’t get!

I do like them, but still nothing repeatable like the marvel/star wars watches have.
