Good afternoon, thanks for the chests.

QOL request. Would it be possible to have the cooldown timer appear in the popup box when you hover over the abilities? I struggle to be able to read the time left on a cooldown and I think having it appear in the popup box would be a nice helpful feature.

Hi fixingcars,

You're welcome for the chests.

The cooldown text can be a bit hard to read in some cases. I'll add it to the QoL list to look into if the timer can be added to the tooltip.

would be nice to have 1 party doing dungeons and other party (not same saders) doing event and other objectives.

how about converting some buffs to others since flaming rocks aren't used much (at all) while gold, dps, crit and spawn get much more use.

While having two formations running at once would be nice, Crusaders wasn't really built to support that, and two instances would mean probably four times as many bugs, at least.

I'll add your vote to the item about trading buff cards, but it's not something we're planning on adding.

Can we expect the launch and end of missions to be automated with the help of taskmasters?

We don't plan on adding taskmasters functionality to the mission screen, but I'll note down it was requested again.

I did a campaign objective once that said that only crusaders in the second slot of each bench could be used. While the tooltip on a crusaders portrait says their bench number, it does not say which "slot" in the bench they are in. This was frustrating since I had at least 2 crusaders in nearly every bench slot, but in the majority of the benches all crusaders were locked out for the campaign. Apparently I had very few "slot 2" crusaders in the then 36 benches.

How can you tell what slot in a bench a crusader is in?

Ah yeah, looks like that objective was based on the global list of Crusaders and not the Crusaders you had unlocked.

The only way to tell currently in game would be to own all the Crusaders, to have the Crusader who originally unlocked the bench seat showing on the bench currently, and then the Crusaders listed on the Swap button would be sorted by order of release, so the one at the top of the list is the 2nd swap for that seat. But that only works if you own all the Crusaders.

That mechanic has only been used on that one event objective so far, and to pass that, you'd just need to check who was unlocked and available to use, as you ended up doing.

If we end up reusing that mechanic for more objectives in the future, I'll gate it on at least having completed the Tier 1 11th objectives, so you'd have 4 Crusaders available, and we could look into adding what number in the bench seat a Crusader is.

- can the 5th taskmaster on the field improve drops?

  • Which scaling on Master Crafter? The Idol cost, or the bonus per recipe?

  • I'll add the vote to the item on the suggestion list about the double rewards runes and we'll see what happens.

  • The 5th taskmaster on the field increases the clicks per second of the taskmasters clicking monsters currently, but we'll keep the idea in mind if we ever add more taskmasters who can click monsters.

Hey Erika

Are you planning something about those achievents which player can`t do anymore?

For example for Sjinn, Turps etc.

Hi Kimedis,

Yup, one day I want to deal with the Yogscast achievements, but sadly it is not this day. Thank you for the nudge though. :)

Hi Erika !

Thanks for the code as always.

I missed an event (the one for quadir) and I want to ask if he will be avaible in the recruit mission in the near futur.

Hi Dragon97240,

You're welcome for the code.

We just updated the mission system back in July with Crusaders through Yaretzi, so I wasn't planning on adding more missions until Tier 7 events started up, but I'll see if we can sneak them into an update before then.

Erica, hello!
Now that the merging of runes is a little faster, and the game has crossed the 6-year threshold, can you find out more about the plans for the development of the game?
New campaigns? New achievements? New talent? Ways to somehow make up for the rewards of previous seasons of the Dungeons (otherwise, the more time passes, the more everything you need and beautiful is sold there, and there are no special ways to accelerate progress, if you are not an unemployed millionaire with a lifetime supply of energy drinks), or at least discounts on absolutely old items? New rewards for certain campaigns (for example, an ability that increases the likelihood of triggering abilities that have a trigger chance - like a dwarf with a fork)? New tags (like the repeatedly asked "Shooting" tag)?
And as always - thanks for the chests!

Hi dimitrius5naj,

You're welcome for the chests.

For sure we're adding more talents and more tiers of difficulty to the permanent campaigns, which includes more 11th objective rewards as we get there.

We would like to add more permanent campaigns and more achievements as well.

We're considering some ways to get the older season rewards to players cheaper, but you can grind out the dungeon coins if you really want them.

I would still like to do a tag pass at some point as well, but it's not in the immediate futures plans.

Cheers!

HI Erika,

Is it possible now that we got over 500 legendries to make it so the cost of catalyst for upgrading from epic to legendary will always be reset to 1 instead of 80% reduction?

Hi SnowLov3r,

We don't plan on making changes to the catalyst costs for crafting legendary items, but we may consider possibly looking into other ways to help newer players get legendary items quicker.

Neat! Are there any plans to include larger denominations for the "auto chest open" buttons? For those of us with a lot of chests, 100 at a time takes a while.

We won't be adding a button for amounts larger than 100 at once, but I do have some plans to let players tackle some of their chest hoard scheduled for later this year.

This is random, but I've been wondering for a long time...

Why is the snowman an animal?

So, in the beginning, there were no tags.

Then we added missions and tags, and we went super basic, with Humans and Non-Humans, and some Non-Human Crusaders ended up being an Animal tag.

We just haven't revisited Frosty's tags since.

Welcome Crusaders!

Mitsuko is showing off both their forms in the Shapeshifter colouring sheet, now available on our website

Or, if you're feeling creative, you can submit your Crusaders fanart!

 

If we get 50 coloured sheets shared at us on our Twitter with the hash tags #lostidolscolouring and #kitsune or shared here on reddit by Wednesday, August 11th, 2021 at 4pm (16:00) Pacific Time (UTC-7), then we'll release a code for a 7 day long 400% Gold buff redeemable by all players....

I'll mention it to them, and we'll see what happens.

I would also second the possibility to buy more rune chests, because, according to my calculations, at the current rhythm it is going to take several years to get a level 15 rune (right now the highest I can do is level 11, so multiply the time it has taken to get there by 16, bearing in mind I have bought all available chests in the shop every week).

Another vote for more runic chests, noted!

Yeah, more missions are something I'd like to add at some point.

The way the cooldown system works right now isn't super great, so I'd prefer we have a go at untangling that before we do anything that affects the cooldowns such as through talents, but we'll keep the request in mind.
