Hey Erika

Anything you can tell us about

1. When will there be new talents?
2. What will they be generally related to DPS, Idol gain, Missions?
3. Will the new talents cost start at Trillion or Q?
4. Will the mysterious new feature, related to chests, come with its own related mission(s)?

Hi! Thanks for the codes! I think about the game all the time and have some questions!

1. When will it be possible to delete saved formations?
2. Will the mission menu be updated to make it clearer and to be able to accept all completed missions at once?
3. When new talents!!! :D
4. Will it be possible to get the previous Desert Bus Crusaders?
5. Sprint extension to 5000 arena? :o

Damn, the rest just fell out of my head, well, I'll probably remember in a week

Hey Erika

In regards to the question: Nothing exclusive. That's it.

Hi Erika, thanks for the chest. You must get tired of saying "you're welcome" so don't worry about that!

For the dungeon rewards, I'd like to see:

• For the maximum level: permanent buffs (e.g. +10% speed permanently, +5% rubies permanently, -1% idol cost for talents, etc., like T11 objectives give)
• A token that can be redeemed for a skin or event crusader or simply sold for a large amount of rubies (depending on what the player already has)
• A special taskmaster that can only press the 'buy all upgrades' and 'buy all levels' buttons

By the way, I swear I remember seeing a 'draw your own monster' feature… did I just hallucinate that? What happened to it?

My idea for the dungeon pass(and also eventually could be used for other things) would be something similar to an idol buff, but for materials. So while the material buff is active, all chests opened give 2x more mats(or some other amount, I'm not sure). With idols not really providing much of a DPS increase anymore, materials are generally the easier way to raise DPs, and since people are spending more time doing deep runs in the dungeon, they are getting far fewer materials than before.

If it isn't too hard to code, and you don't want to provide an "unfair" advantage to the people that have been hoarding chests for months/years, you could make it so that the material buff only applies to the chests that drop while it's active, instead of chests opened while it's active, maybe call them silver+ chests and JC+ chests or something.

Hey Erika,

Thank you for the code!

What other characters are on the short list to be added as DLC?

For the next Tier 6 events after Carnival of Sorrows will it follow the same format that you will have needed to complete the Tier 3 objective on Ghostbeard's Greed? Or will the next ones require others of the 11th Tier 3 objectives to be completed?

Hey Erika,

At the moment it seems that there is no option to link accounts out of Miniclip. Will this function be added until the end of the year or will we have to create a ticket for it?

I think I asked this already, but: Vehicle Mode skin for the Desert Bus, please.

Hi, Erika.

How are things? I hope that everyone in the Office, and their Families are keeping safe, and healthy. I just hit 5 Trillion, this morning, I think it was. From my Morning Rest, off of yesterday's Second Run, I assume.

I know that I asked about this before, but it's in relation to "Hot Keys/Sticky Keys". I remember it stopped working, and I asked what happened, and you told me that it was an issue, with "Flash". But seeing as we'll be moving away, from "Flash", is there any chance that Kevin will give us back that "Feature"??? It was the Hot Keys not interfering with the Sticky ones, the x10, x25, and x100 Leveling.

Salute, Erica!)

Linking the passage of a new TIR to DPS looks quite normal. The only problem is that if you don't devote all your free time to the game, then in the intervals between events there is almost no time left for standard campaigns (between earning idols on freeplay). There are probably people who cannot play at work, or they have families and other hobbies. I lead this to the fact that next year it is not necessary to tie the seventh TIR to 1e600 and higher.

And I also expect that this year at least part of what you wanted to do will be done - RoboSatan, increasing the number of EP in missions, decoupling legendary effects on objects from specific crusaders (except for those that were in the same TIR with them, such as Momma and Turkeys) and something new to replace the Gardeners of the Galaxy.

And as always - huge gratitude for the chests.

Hi, Erika. Some were wanting to make sure, capitalized Q means quintillion or e18, right?

Originally posted by Legitimate-Guitar786

1. could you please specify, would low Q be 1e18?

Hi, Erica. Could you give more information about saving rubies? What it would be? What for to spend them? One more question. I have only one crusader missed, it's pretty useful for a lot of formations, Ichtaca. Is there any chance to get it from the shop for, may be, rubies? No missions for crusaders for about a month of my active playing.

Thx for the chest.

I almost forgot.

Is it possible to add talents like "Blue Shift" to the list of general talents?

If not an exact copy, then something like "Red Shift", thanks to which more gold will pour from the monsters, as if they were several levels higher.

can we have hint on next crusader and skin on t6? which tag it would be or the idea of the art concept ?

Originally posted by cschwa

Hi Erika, Thanks for the info on the CNE launcher. For dungeon rewards, how about a buff that extends Sprint? Idol buff early in the season because an idol buff for the interval is currently pointless. Buff that allows you to do dungeon runs in the interval (perhaps without the idol bonus) just to use the higher dps available. If I were CNE, I would make the pass valuable even if one wasn't sure of reaching L25. It's easy to not spend if it is unlikely to have a reward

Hi again,

Thank you for the information! I have another question. For the Desert Bus donation how does that work in the sense of getting the crusader? I haven't had a chance to donate before so I don't know how the process works.

Hello there !

I always miss the live hour (crying in sadness) but always there for reading or my questions/ideas.

How about the next few 11th objectives ? Is there plans already or is it open to suggestions ? As we need always more idols (and I don't even speak of the 'no max level' ones), why not adding some limit breaks or, even better, one to make them uncapped ? And another one to add a gear in chests (or talent like) ? And one to have more JC drop ? And ... no just joking :P

For your question on the dungeon pass, I may be better but still doubt I have the time to reach a good level for it ... maybe for season 3, who knows.

No teasing for the next crusader yet ?

And lastly, about the rubies ... Are there plans to have them more easily too ? Since the last skin in the skin shop, I did not used them and still thinks it is building up stoo slow.

Will there be any differences in Codename Games launcher and the Steam version of Crusaders?

Hi Erika!

I had a couple questions while reading through the other posts.

1) Can you give us a ballpark on how many rubies will be useful for the new feature? Are we talking thousands, or tens of thousands, or what?

2) To help bridge the gap between dungeon seasons, is there a way to just turn off the point accumulation, since it's too late to gain more dungeon levels? Then people could at least continue to play with the new formations while waiting for the new season to begin.

Originally posted by Dragon97240

For the gears in chest, literally add in every common and jeweled chest one slot with automatically a gear. That way, we will get more materials and/or complete the gear's collection. So a talent or 11th objective that add in the chests a gear, so 4 slots in normal and 6 in jeweled chests.

Yes, the challenge tokens are mostly reserved for golden gears and, at the time, I only got enough legendary catalysts for a few craft each week. So my best option was rubies. Now, I will spend the catalysts as I have a good amount of them. By the way, when will the GE for Ana Guinness ( the one for chest drop) will be avaible in that shop ?

I am a pretty casual player compared to some others and still didn't reach e15 idols so ... except by having a good speedster or two until the end, a run in the dungeon can take longer than expected. Even when using speed cards ! And as some as talked about on Steam forums, Drosenthes is badly compatible with Tiernan in end runs so if you are unlucky, you think you reached area 700 but still at 6500 because of that. Hope a good healer/support is on its way to help with that ;) (I don't say he is bad, just can give us bad surprises when going away)

Originally posted by AllenMS828

Isn't that a bit steep, considering the current Tier 7 talents have starting costs ranging from half a billion to 200 billion? I finally have almost 3 trillion idols, and I'm still struggling to finish the Tier 6 talents. Or are we skipping straight to Tier 9 for the new ones? :D

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Thanks for the game.

1. For obvious reasons, I'm sure you don't want to make any promises about when the next Dungeon season is going to start.

Is it possible for you to give us an "it's going to be at least this long" kind of idea? e.g., is this a "Yeah, there's zero chance that this is going to be released in the next (week/two weeks), and who knows how much longer it'll take than that" type of thing?

2. Dungeon pass: I'd suggest the best direction for this would be as a way for casual players or people who started late to catch up in a Dungeon season.

So, for example:

• A pool of extra Dungeon runs (say, 60), which don't refresh but get dipped into if you run out of weekly runs. That's not going to matter for most players, since most players are going to have a tough time doing all 15, but it's a way for spenders who start mid-season to try to catch up.

• Consumable which lets you reroll which objectives get which bonuses

• Consumable that doubles your Sprint maximum just for that Dungeon run

• Consumable that massively increases the speed factors that don't already have a buff (quest drop multiplier, drop rate multiplier) for Dungeon runs during a limited period of time

3. Dungeon changes

Just making sure that my biggest desire for a change in the new season is at least on your list to be considered: Making the dungeon bonuses rotate rather than random.

There's a reason why you didn't make Challenges completely random, and it's even more true here. Sure, it (probably) balances out in the long run, but getting your least-favorite map every other run for a long streak is pretty frustrating (as is never getting your favorite map).

Let's even it out. Either just a straight rotation of bonuses, or (if you need randomness) something pretty close to that.
