Thanks for the chests and getting Garnet's fifth rune out, it's great, well worth waiting for :)

Hey there, is tier 6 gonna be the last tier of new crusaders or are you planning on a tier 7 afterwards?

There are just so overwhelmingly many crusaders already, most of which have no use except for missions.

It would be really nice and refreshing to see focus on new aspects of the game

Congrats on the Garnet rune launch. It seems very well thought out, balanced in power as you get higher rune levels, and implemented well. Haven't seen any bugs with stack accrual, calculation, or even with warps and skipping multiple bosses giving appropriate rewards and chests etc... and speed is always meta!

Any thoughts about T8 talents or a new Crusader that might start to speed up the passive accrual of runic chests?

Cheers,

Hi Erika,

I have 2 questions:

1. Now that all runes are in play, would you consider giving as a one-time-full-reset option to remove all runes that were placed in the past, which would allow re-prioritizing based on new(er) runes?
2. When I run dungeons for idols, I run them on level 3, but sprints for points at level 1. Of course sometimes I forget to switch difficulty. Would it be possible to allow a switch after starting the dungeon with some limit (e.g. before area 5 or while still within your sprint limit or only if your max dps for this run is below the dps needed for the area you have reached in the difficulty you want to change to)?

Thank you!

...

1. ) Someone said you were thinking about reworking weekly challenges, or at least Blast from the Past since it's only the eldest of event crusaders and changes very little run to run. Any more on that at this time?

2. ) Last weekend for the first time; there was no new GL for a weekend buff and instead a new skin. Is that going to be a more common thing?

Hi Erika,

I am sorry for asking regarding another QoL feature, but I just need a brief clarification on something. At the beginning of the year there were talks about improving the Mission system, with the introduction of new mechanics and other QoL improvement it seems that has been pushed back. I imagine that it would be difficult and it would take a long of time to update this system, so my question is this "Can we get an option to complete all missions at once, skipping animations?" before any big overhaul to the Mission system.

Its a feature which will improve player's experience when dealing with missions after opening so many of them. The only issue when it comes to such a feature is (experienced vs new players), but I imagine that a solution can be reached where experienced players get the skip (after having clicked the same button over ten thousands of times) while newer players marvel at the intricacies and animations of the Mission system.

Great work on the Garnet rune, my compliments!

Hey Erika.

Few things:

1.) Love the new Garnet rune. It just feels really good to use. Love that it self corrects for less monster kills with the multiplier. Completely unexpected interaction, and it works flawlessly.

2.) What's the event after Alien invasion? I don't want or expect a date, just trying to plan out gear acquisition into the future which is easier during events.

3.) Any plans for currency conversion? I would be willing to take a pretty massive hit on conversion ratio if it meant I could turn dungeon coins into rubies, challenge coins, solvents, geodes, or catalysts, and vice versa. I sometimes feel like I have endless quantities of useless currencies, and none of the currency I'd like.

4.) Any plans on changing or updating the mission interface? With the huge number of crusaders, and now with runes directly impacting missions, it can be tedious to endlessly scroll right trying to put together a team.

Thanks

An expansion of crafting is the first thing that comes to mind, something along the lines of having multiple item choices for the same item slot sounds interesting. Maybe only available through crafting and the requirement of new and difficult to obtain materials.

Some refining on the formation building part of the game would also really be fun. I have a blast piecing together my own formation on challenges or difficult objectives, something that sadly falls away on freeplays because end game formations are so difficult to get a clear view of and are usually provided by a few people actually understanding the formations.

Maybe a new form of Reset currency (possibly obtained from dungeons along side of dungeon coins?) to be used in a skill tree type thing for unique bonuses also sounds pretty intriguing, making choices for what to level and figuring out different builds as opposed to talents where you simply max everything

That's about all I can think of on the spot haha

To 1. I have used a bunch of rune solvents and I have some left, but not enough to empty every Crusader I would like to. I also want to keep a few in stock. I understand that some player might not want it, but there could be a button like talent reset (altho I fully appreciate the fact that implementing a button for a one time use might be a bit overkill).

To 2. I'd be cool with a confirmation box too, in the end it's not the worst thing ever, because I can just buy more runs, so I don't lose out on the longterm. At least it brings me closer to spending 25k coins :D :D :D

Thinking now: If you let me buy rune solvents with my challenge tokens, I won't need a mega reset :D

Hi Erika,

thank you for Garnet's rune. It is well worth the long wait ;-)

As many players have more than enough power even for Diff3 that extra speed is much appreciated.

So long, best regards

How about undead/demon/evil as a challenge? Bit of a mirror to Royal/Good/Angel and Undead tag isn't currently used for much.

Loving that we finally got Garnett's 5th rune and it is actually useful - even if it will be several years before i'll be able to put a R15 in there, its good design means it has value even with lower runes. Thanks.

Looking ahead, i am hoping that this speed-up in runs isn't going to just get erased next season with a raise in goals past the current 12.5k/17.5k that will once again lengthen our runs. Don't now what the plans are, but hoping that instead of yet higher goals, we'll maybe just get higher tiers? (Unless other time-saving mechanics are also in the works; i just really hate 12h+ runs).

2. Great job to Wilson and everybody involved on Garnet's rune, can you
revise some of the other runes like Langley's, Griz, etc. which are very
underwhelming? Instead of a bit of GF on Lanlgley's 5th to be All
Aboard/Chew Chew buff

The feature that I hope for on the mission screen is the ability to toggle the sort direction with respect to EP, without also reversing the direction of sorting on other factors.

Originally posted by bippyarg

Oh it just occurred again to me, a nice QoL feature for Garnet and would likely be easy to implement would be dis-allowing warp to trigger on areas 1-4, just like sprint and phase skip areas. It wastes warps and postpones getting to a multiple of 5 level for sprint to start.

Thanks!

I was originally thinking about all new gear but being able to choose different legendary effects would be enough I suppose.

I don't think adding 2 or 3 legendary effects on a single piece of gear would be good as some legendary gear is already a little op as is

Thank you :D

Hey Erika!

Was just thinking about something: What if Ana's chest dropchance ability was turned into a talent instead? It feels like she's gonna be hard to swap away from in basicly any formation you can use her, even if her DPS power is suboptimal. Would that be a possibility?

Originally posted by BenL7

Thank you for the chests.

Would it be possible to keep the Save Formation buttons from going gray (grey) between levels? That makes is difficult to save a formation while Sprinting.

Also, could the numbers blink or do something to indicate they've saved the formation when pressed?

I don't know who came up with Deernan, but I must say that it's hilarious. And Kat also did a great job with the skin!

How are we doing with speeding up challenges? Not looking for a sprint here, I'm more interested in deep runs, but when they last a day or so I feel like I'm missing out on dungeon runs.

Don't forget the horizontal scroll bar, please!

Yes, more runic chests to buy with rubies will be great.
