I was wondering if there can be a Skip to area ____ mechanism. Don't know how hard that is but to power dps back up sometimes I find myself having to go back a few hundred or thousand areas. Instead of pressing the back arrow on the area map, is there a way to say... Skip to area 3000 or something like that? Or is there a short hand mechanism to do this that I do not know about?

Thanks again.

You're welcome for the code.

Happy holidays to you and yours as well. :)

You can hold the Shift key and press the left arrow key and it takes you back to area 1.

The mouse wheel also works on scrolling the mini map, though you want to choose an area before you either change areas or get wiped, depending on why you need to change areas.

If you're looking to go to a specific area, there's no mechanic for that yet, but it has been requested before, so I'll add a vote to that item on our suggestion list for you.

Good luck with the contest.

Because Kaala ended up blue themed, and we needed an Angel tag in that seat, that's the tag I ended up giving her.

Hi Erika,

Happy Holidays!
I have a suggestions for runes. Could there be crusaders who decrease the time of gold missions? (Less OP than all missions, but still useful).
Are you planning to add more crusaders who decrease the mission times? (I haven't recruited Springy yet, so might not be a relevant question)

Hi via_119,

Happy holidays to you and yours as well. :)

A Gold mission duration rune sounds cool as a possibility. I'll note it down.

Springy would have been a good candidate for a mission duration rune in hindsight, so then players have to choose where to use him. We'll probably do more mission duration runes in future, but that rune type can end up confining Crusaders to missions only, so we'll have to choose carefully.

EDIT: Yea, can we get a filter to show speed up 4th runes, similar to the doubling 4th runes on the rune panel?

I'm glad to hear you're enjoying Springy.

Thank you for the reminder about more rune filters. There were a bunch more I wanted to add, but Wilson wanted to make the list operate more intuitively if we're going to add more filter choices, but maybe we can sneak that one in.

Hi Erika,

how you gonna handle the lag caused by calculations on hitting maximize crusader levels button? If you can't max all saders levels, but being close to max, it is up to 1 minute of computing on 35k-40k levels. Getting worse as the game progresses
-better not to press that button accidentally...

Maybe it's best to calculate this more unprecisely at higher amounts as most players won't care much above e2000 gold...

Hi _umdos,

Does it happen fairly reliably for you? If you put in a ticket, we can grab a copy of your account and see if there's anything Wilson can tweak in the new year.

Hello Ericka,

2 questions for you along with the raffle entry.

Can you share what percentage of active players have completed the 'That just happened' achievement? That one has been a PITA on my end for too long now, but I will get it one of these days.

Any thoughts on how achievements tied to dungeon seasons will work once the game goes into maintenance mode? As of now there is a set of achievements per season which does not seem sustainable. I'm asking mostly because I am bitter about not getting the season 1 get to level 25 achievement.

Thanks and enjoy the holidays.

Hi Kittymug,

1) So about 22% of the players currently playing the game have that achievement, which is pretty good considering it is so random.

2) It's not something we've thought about right now, but I'm sure we'd discuss it more once we're actually closer to putting in the game into maintenance mode, as there would be a lot of questions to answers about dungeons/seasons in general.

Cheers!

Erica, hello.

  1. Since you promised (or suggested) that the skin fair will be in 2022, can you guess what skins will be included in it? Maybe you already have some blanks?
  2. The number of sprint arenas has doubled. And the speed of passing challenges and campaigns is still very low (general modifiers are only 1.2 for the second item drop / second kill and the speed of movement to another arena, and the rest depends on the crusaders). Are there any plans to increase the drop rate, or another increase in the quantity modifier?
  3. Well, as always - thanks for the chests!

Hi dimitrius5naj,

1) Looking at the 2022 schedule, and the back to back events basically plus the season 6 drop, the first opening for a skin store update would be in Q2 2022 at the earliest. Kat will probably choose from her list of player suggestions when we get closer to that update.

2) I do have some plans for adding speed to challenges, but objectives are still fairly short, in that we're not making you go to area 30,000 for them and instead applying difficulty compression, so aside from Garnet and Phase Skip, normal objectives probably won't get faster. There is also the talent that speeds up quests for having 3 taskmasters assigned to using Speed Buffs, which isn't Crusader dependent and would only be blocked on objectives that turn off Talents.

3) You're welcome for the chests.

Thanks for getting those Tier 5 11th objectives out before the new year! The amount of idols I gain now just skyrocketed!

If I may offer a suggestion for Missions? I'm sure it's been brought up before but since we've unlocked more missions and can send more crusaders out on those missions, could we have an "Complete All Missions" then get an overall summary for the missions?

Instead of having to click through 20+ completed missions, there could be a list sorted by total EP|Gold|Rubies|DP|Recipes|Materials|Misc. gained, then a separate list for failed missions (if any) at the bottom, similar to opening 100 chests at a time.

You're welcome for the chests and the objectives. Glad they're helping. :)

Yeah, complete all missions has certainly come up a lot. I still want to do it as complete all by category, rather than just all-all, because some players still like to save some missions for a few seconds before completing them, but we'll see what happens when we get to improving that.

Cheers!

Hello Erika,

thanks for the code

when i had 100k rubies i asked for a new optiopn to spend them, i dont really need JCs any more. maybe 1 or 2 more rune chests with rubies per week.

now i have a lot more of them and with the new ruby missions and objectives i will have 150k soon. and there are people with much more than i have...

even more options to earn them but still nothing new to spend them? more rubies is nice, but its not worth much when there is nothing really useful to buy...

just a feedback...

oh, and next t5/t6 objective double dungeon sprint pls :D

sorry for my bad english

happy holidays all

Hi Made_In_The_80s,

You're welcome for the code.

I'll add your vote for more Runic chests for rubies to the suggestion list to consider.

Not every player has done 7 years of daily quests and ruby missions, so they don't all have a hoard of rubies sitting there, but we may come up with more ruby uses in future.

I don't plan on adding more Sprint to the dungeons for awhile, otherwise that would really mess with the point drops for players who don't have max sprint, but we'll keep the request in mind.

Happy holidays! :)

Got a question: Since Springy has the supernatural tag (makes sense, since it's a living plushie), do you think Xander with his plushie skin could also get the supernatural tag? You know, since he's basicly the same?

Hi Daurakin,

I have in my notes from last year that since Xander is a dragon which is already mythic, we just wanted the skin to be a look-swap, not a tag swap. But we'll keep the request in mind for any future potential tag balance pass.

I would like to ask whether it would be possible to modify Xochitl's Sisterly Water Spirit* ability a bit - make Sister spawn first in a wave. Right now in speed forms Ana and Xochitl are almost on par. Ana's leprechaun tag allows using Viktor for some extra AQDM**. Xochitl's disadvantage is that you need at least two kills on each area to trigger Sisterly Water Spirit AQDM effect. This tweak would send Ana on a much deserved holiday :D

Happy holidays!

*Gives each wave of monsters a X% chance to spawn a Sister and adds a X% chance for Sisters to drop three quest item at once, or count as three kills for area quests

**Average Quest Drop Multiplier

Hi tlj_,

The monster system really only supports adding a monster type to a wave. It doesn't support telling the game which monster in the wave of x monsters should walk at the front of the pack.

But I'll note it down on the suggestion list to consider.

Cheers!

Just an idea, but I was wondering if maybe the rune mission of the tier 7 missions can be repeatable in some way(for future tier 7s, and until the release of tier 8s), but considering its giving out a random tier 7 rune, perhaps you could increase the event currency cost by double or triple(or maybe even higher) the amount each time multiplicatively, to balance it out.

You're welcome for the code. Happy holidays!

That's an interesting idea for getting more runes, and would definitely encourage more Time Warp usage. I'll make a note to discuss with Wilson if it's even possible.

Unsure if this has been touched on previously, so apologies if that's the case. Are there other ways to acquire rune solvents? I didn't know that you could combine equipped runes to level them up, and knowing that I need to reshuffle some. The only way I've been able to find to get a solvent is by buying a pack that only grants one. I just wish there was an easier way to obtain more, like through gems or rune chests or challenge coins. Or even to purchase a set alone. And like I said, I might be missing something here.

Happy Holidays to you and the team!

So there's the weekly mission to get a rune solvent, and then we also give out some as part of the rewards from the Dungeon seasons, along with the occasional DLC pack.

We currently don't plan on adding more sources for them, but I'll add your vote to the item on the suggestion list and we'll see what happens.

Happy holidays! :)

hi,

since you've added more ruby missions via the tier 5 11th objectives, can you please give us 3 weekly runic chests in the ruby shop instead of 2?

Hi Halaberd85,

Increasing the amount of Runic chests from the Ruby store isn't something we're planning on doing at the moment, but I'll add your vote to the request, and we'll see what happens.

Hello

Is there any plans to expand the ruby ​​shop? Perhaps more rune chests or skins or idol bonus. There are more and more rubies and there is nothing to spend them on.

Happy Hollydays

Hi Bocian00000,

We hope to do more regular updates to the Skin Store in 2022, so that will be one ruby sink for players.

No other plans at this time, but I'll note your votes for the runic chest and idol buff from the ruby store, and we'll see what happens.

Happy holidays!

While I'm here I might as well throw in a couple suggestions for minor QoL upgrades. Put me down for a +1 to making challenges faster now that they are getting quite lengthy. Also, it might be nice to be able to better sort crusaders on mission screens, and be able to change skins within the mission screen.

Springy seems like a cool new sader! Always fun when totally new abilities are introduced to the game, especially ones that have functions even if they are not used in your main dps form.

I hope you and everyone over at CNE has a wonderful break over the holidays!

I think everyone may end up taking the fire rune. :D

Votes noted for some of the popular items: faster challenges, mission filter, skin screen from the mission screen. We'll see what happens.

Yay for Springy. :)

I'll pass it along to the team. Happy holiday season to you and yours as well.

Hi Erika. Thanks for the raffle and jeweled chests.

Do you think of an action to facilitate opening hundreds of thousands of silver chests accumulated?

Hi papillamammaria,

You're welcome. :)

We've got an update coming in 2022 to help players with opening their normal Silver chest hoards.

Hey! Looking forward to that point buff, would appretiate a 4x this season.

It's the same percentage of buff as before, but we've checked and it does apply to the dungeon points missions, so that should help the gains. :)

I'll make a note to review those skins and we'll see what happens.

Not every Undead is meant to have a Supernatural tag, but for a while there, it is true that we were pairing Angel or Demon with Supernatural.

Greetings.

Going to be interesting to see what people put on their wishlist for things to change in 2022 in regards to the game.

My #1 is less dps spam for sure

And #2 - #10 are less gfx options, best for me would be a stickman option and no drop/number spam :D

Greetings.

I thought you make resolutions for yourself, not the games. ;)

I'll add your vote for more graphics settings to the item on our list and we'll see what happens.

I'm sure opening 1000 chests has been suggested, but that would be good. I also think a more complex filtering process than star and X for crusaders we want to send on missions. For instance, the same selection but isolated into the various mission categories.

Thank you

No buttons for opening chests higher than 100, sorry.

I'll add your vote to the more mission filtering possibilities, and we'll see what happens.

Cheers!

I would exchange 1000 silver chests for a gold chest,
and 100 gold chests for a runic chest.

We don't plan on offering exchanges between silver, jeweled and runic chests.

Still in the works, aiming for early next year.

Speaking of which, is there any talk of having things to do with the Mystic Thinner? I don't remove runs that often, so it's kind of building up in my garage. ;)

Nope, no other uses for Rune Solvent planned, other than removing runes if players need to do that.
