Crusaders Community Q&A #260 with host Erika

Hey and Happy Thursday!

Two questions for today.

First, at the current rate of acquisition(and I say this as someone who buys every season pass for context) and assuming the stars align and we get extraordinary chest luck, we’re looking at getting our first level 15 rune in about 3 years from now. Is this intended?

Second, is this dungeon season a subtle warning? A “be carful what you wish for” type scenario. It feels we’re being punished on one hand and taunted on the other by the higher end rewards that are only really obtainable if you put the kind of time and effort of a full-time job would require. Historically I have bought the dungeon passes for some extra perks, and to support CNE, this season it basically became a pay to win feeling of HAVING to buy it due to the dungeon point buff.

Cheers,

A disappointed player

EDIT: Forgot to mention, the new achieves also feel this way. People asked for more, and instead of ones tha...

Hi HexxarTek,

  • Runes are intended to be a long term investment system. That said, over the year they've been out, we've increased the way to get them from just the weekly chest purchases to being included as season rewards and starting soon the level 7 random rune reward from Tier 7 events, so there may be more changes as the game continues.

  • Level 25 is still the intended season completion mark, and any rewards past that are bonuses. As said on stream on Tuesday, when we make the point change, we'll probably remove the runes from the rewards past level 40, so players don't feel like they're missing out on not going for the most efficient point dungeon resets.

Good morning! I'm curious if you saw this post about the current scaling in dungeons and what your thoughts are on it?

Good morning,

We have seen the post and we're discussing making a little tweak to the point rewards for higher areas.

Also, I am just as unsatisfied with the dungeon changes as the other people here.

I'll chat with the team about the possible slowdowns of the game/server. Did you notice a certain point when it started occurring, like a formation change? Or it just happened?

You can still complete the season which is level 25, and likely complete level 40 without too much effort, but as noted on stream on Tuesday, we'll be looking at changing the point distribution a little.

You'll need to have completed the Bullet Hell objective to complete the Crusader recruit mission, and to complete the entire tier, you'll need to have completed Washed Up as well as maxed out Arithmagician.

I want to point your mistake. In Dungeon Reward Breakdown base reward for idols should be everywhere 0.

Hi Kimedis,

It's not technically a mistake, because it is the base amount of Idols the dungeon with the idol bonus awards without any of the additional idol buffs on offer, but I'll chat with Wilson about what we can do on the rewards display.

not that smart system since like I said L15 might cost 100 cats.

If you've made 2 Level 10 runes, then you've already spent all the runes and catalysts to have those level 10 runes in your inventory, to only spend the 1 catalyst to merge them to a level 11.

But yes, going from scratch of just level 1 runes in your inventory, and not accounting for any other rune rewards, you would need 1023 catalysts to make a level 15 rune.

BRUH I WROTE THIS ON THE WRONG REDDIT ACCOUNT LMAO... This was the one I messed up my name on. Anyway, after looking at it again I have seen that the point nerf isn't that bad, but the linear scaling really is. For newer players it's not as bad as endgame people since they would greatly profit from having more time irl if they could do long runs. Please just make the scaling for points higher a little bit and also change the scaling past area 10k since newer players then will have their normal runs with a little more freetime as to not have to spam 3 long runs a day to achieve their goal and endgame people can also do long runs instead of thousands of even more stressful sprints.
Also, yes I know I may be double posting both of my messages, but that is only because idk if someone from CNE would even see it at the other post.

Thank you for the feedback on the point drops for season 5.

The levels past level 25 are just how we can implement the "repeating rewards" effect that other games have for seasons. Level 40 is still the main goal for bonus levels, since after that is when the rewards go to all materials with a sprinkling of runes. We just added up to 100 levels to see how far players decide to go.

I'll discuss with the team about the points from objectives though.

thanks for the chest!

Streams at 11am Pacific would be great.

Hi suoxons,

You're welcome for the chest.

The 11am stream slot seems to be the winner, so we'll be moving the stream to then.

Cheers!

will we have new Carnival Special Event Tier 7?

should we get new talents for increasing dungeon points for percentage?

should we get bounty idol increasing more percentage?

Yes, Carnival of Sorrows Tier 7 is coming around Oct 14th, 2021.

No talents planned for dungeon points at the moment, but I'll add your vote to the request.

No plans on increasing the idol percentage right now.

First thank you for the code

Second I would vote for an hour earlier

Third I Killed 10,000 Godos but although it shows as complete in Achievements there was no on screen message, so I probably continued to kill them for a while after I had achieved this. Similarly for 50,000,000,000 damage taken by Rosoideae had no message.

You're welcome for the code.

Noted on the new stream time. Thank you for the feedback.

Were you watching the game when you were going after the achievements or was it idling and you just came back and checked on the achievements? I believe the achievement pop-ups time out after a while.

Have a request and question at the same time, is possible to disable TALENST like we do with UPGRADES, is something that have been asked before or first time? Will it be possible to implement?

Thanks

Hi Kite-sama,

It's come up before, especially after we introduced the Omniclick talent. I'll add your vote to the item on the suggestion list and we'll see what happens.

Cheers!

There isn't a cooldown timer on rune costs.

Creating a level 6 or higher rune just costs 1 catalyst.

If you need to make more runes in order to have a level 10 to merge with another level 10 for example, to slot a level 11 rune in a slot on a Crusader, then depending on your current rune inventory, the catalyst cost displayed on the quick merge dialog will vary.

Thank you and your team for launching Dungeons 5 as scheduled. The short break in between has allowed me to complete all available base event objectives so I'm ready to go deeper.

Please add my vote to 11am Pacific Time.

Any idea of when the next T7 event will launch? Just curious.

And thanks for the code.

Cheers~!

Hi GemPro,

Congratulations on completing the objectives in the break. I know some players were worried it wouldn't be long enough to do that.

The Carnival of Sorrows returns around October 14th, 2021.

Cheers!

Thanks for the Runic Chest. Looking forward to Season 5 of Dungeons. Thanks to you all for all of your hard work getting it together. One question... when will Carnival of Sorrows begin? Again, my vote for the time slot is 11am Pacific. Have a great week!

Thanks

Hi appyleaguefan,

You're welcome for the chest. :D

I'll pass along the thanks to the team, and the vote for the stream time.

The Carnival of Sorrows returns around October 14th, 2021.

Now that we have had Zucek in the game for a while, and he has a very nice ability.

(And I most likely know the answer will be a donno)

Do you log how many Delorean and other time skip buffs have been used to get his skill up?

Hi Bazzturd,

Zuczek is very impressive, yes.

No, we didn't put in any tracking for how Zuczek gets their stacks. But for every player to build up that ability, it's probably a lot of them getting used finally. :D

So in addition to my other comment on this thread, I'm confused, because when I asked about this on stream a couple months ago regarding reconciling how static runes are vs the dynamic nature of formation building, you said that you couldn't and would look into it. Has that plan changed?

There's no plans to change it at this time, but the request is on the suggestion list to consider as a reminder.
