Hi Erika,
Thank you for your work and have a nice day! I have one question:
1) When the newest tier 6s will appear in the mission for recruitment? Been AFK for months and miss several!
Thanks again!
Hi Ysicer,
Thank you. I hope you have a good day as well. :)
Funnily enough, I was just thinking about that. The missions for gear/recruit for Gwendolyn through Yaretzi will be released with the Tier 5 Mugwarts objectives.
Cheers!
Hi!
I know it's been said, but thank you for moving Qadir. It no longer feels like we're being overtly punished for asking for a QOL improvement. On that note, Qadir marginally slows the chest creep problem, but doesn't eliminate it. Are there any plans to tweak chest opening chance % via rune/gear/talent/Gem interaction, or adding an additional in game tool for opening larger quantities of chests, or is Qadir it?
Thanks
Hi HexxarTek,
Thank you to the players for trying Qadir and providing the polite feedback.
No further plans to tweak Qadir at the moment, but there was that suggestion for their gear earlier in the Q&A, to have the GL be 99% open rate. We'll see what happens with them.
As I slightly hinted at on stream last week, though players might have been distracted by Qadir's abilities tease, I am slowly coming around on a solution for opening more than 100 chests at once. So there is future hope for the chest hoards.
Cheers!
Thanks for moving Qadir!
You're welcome. :)
Read moreHi Erika,
Today on the agenda I have two very specific questions, which probably have already been asked:
- Can Warp interaction with Sprint be fixed? Pretty much currently Warping acts independently of Sprint which causes Sprint to start working 50-100 areas down the line (depending on your rune level). Not only are you not Sprinting for those first areas but you also losing Warps to areas which you can Sprint otherwise, reducing the efficiency of both Sprint and Warp.
- Another Mission Question: Can shop Idol Buffs also apply to Missions and not only Resets? This one is pretty straight forward, with the invent of Dungeons, Idol Missions have started to slowly lose their appeal, while Dungeons should be more profitable for the amount of time and work you spend on them, there should be a small jolt Idol Missions to make them feel somewhat exciting.
Oh and thank you for moving Qadir, I think this is the fi...
Hi emilking91,
1) It's been requested to have Garnet start warping in a later area, and I'll add your vote to the item on our suggestion list, but it's not something we're planning on changing at this time.
2) Interesting idea. I'll add it to the request list and we'll see what happens.
Cheers!
Yes, thanks for listening to feedback on Qadir.
Of course, that achievement is still a pain that's out of step with normal event achievements - but at least we won't have to sacrifice materials for all the weeks it's going to take to get the achievement.
And then i'll probably never use her again.
I never had a problem just opening my chests manually at either the start or finish of every run or two, so have never asked for that particular QoL - but as long as it's clearly possible, i'd really rather see it be useful (put to 100%) or have a talent that allows a TM to be placed to open all incoming chests.
PS - really bummed that there won't be a new colouring sheet again this week. Turns out i really miss them when the weekend comes around and one hasn't been posted yet. Hoping they will continue if it's not too tedious for Kat to do them.
Thanks.
I mean, there's 24,000 ingredients in Casey's Stew, so the achievement isn't unprecedented. Qadir's achievement is also meant to be one of the more long-term achievements for the game.
The auto-chest open almost wasn't possible, but it did end up working out. I'll note down the request for the talent, but we don't plan on adding more auto-opening at this time, as there is now Qadir to do it.
Kat's just trying to get a bit of a buffer back, and since the colouring sheets aren't in-game art, they are the first thing to be cut when we need the art time. They are quite fun for Kat to ink though, so they will still appear, probably just not weekly for a little while.
Thank you for the seat change, that's a big improvement! In the past, you occasionally had a developer in the Q&A. When will you throw Wilson into the fire?
Maybe we'll make the 6th anniversary celebrations feature Wilson in the fire, heh. I'll discuss it with him and see if he's game for hosting a reddit Q&A.
hi,
thanks a lot for moving Qadir!
Thanks to the community for trying Qadir and giving their polite feedback about them.
Thank you very much for listening to the community feedback. I think you made the right decision, and it is very nice to see the feedback taken seriously and in the helpful manner it was (mostly I hope!) delivered.
It will be interesting the see the synergy that can be found between Ana and Qadir now that they can both be in formation. Off the top of my head, I'd say to truly make Qadir's Auto-open a QoL improvement, I'd make the future GL associated with auto open a 100% chance to auto-open (or 99% for the memes!)
Thanks, -Bipp
Most of the feedback was quite polite, yes.
That's an interesting idea for the gear. We'll keep it mind.
Cheers!
Welcome Crusaders!
Before we begin: I hope you're all staying safe and being kind.
For those of you who are joining us for the first time, I'm Erika, the Live Services Manager for Crusaders of the Lost Idols, and I will do my best to answer your Crusaders questions. This Q&A is so you know where to find one of the team to chat Crusaders weekly.
I will be answering questions live for the first hour and then checking back throughout the week.
The previous Q&A: Number 245!
Hail Crusaders!
No new colouring sheet this week, but you can recolour any sheet you haven't yet 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 #catchup4 or shared here on reddit by Wednesday, July 7th, 2021 at 4pm (16:00) Pacific Time (UTC-7), then we'll release a code for a 7 day long 200% Spawn Speed buff redeemable by all players....
Read more External link →Thank you for all the rainbow-rrific colouring sheets this week!
We'll carry them forward to the next week to get closer to the Speed buff goal!
I can't use reset crusader in popular mechanics. Any help ?
Fixed if you reload the game.
I've done it now, thanks; I'm not sure why I couldn't do it before...
Cool!
Is the "Perfect guardianship" achievement broken? I can't seem to get it...
It's still working. I just got it in my game. https://gyazo.com/9830a9e1b3111c015b56f4e805b348c0
Blaze of Glory requires Crusaders being exactly 2 formation slots away from the Holy Guardian to give its bonus, so you need THG to be 2 slots away from both of the Crusaders in the front row that you're targeting.
(Ignore the other Crusaders. I just tossed them in to get a full formation)
Yes, more runic chests to buy with rubies will be great.
Thank you for expanding, I'll add the idea to our more sources of runic chests list.
Don't forget the horizontal scroll bar, please!
I'll add another vote to the list. :)
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.
I will let Kat know you like the art. :)
Once we decided on an Animal skin for Tiernan, his antlers led pretty quickly to deer, and so Deernan was a natural evolution for the name. Wilson added the flavour text.
The challenges update and season 5 are currently on my design plate, which I'll get back to once we've gotten Alien Invasion out the door.
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?
You're welcome for the chests.
Some things just have to be disabled while changing areas. I'll run it by Wilson and add it to our suggestion list if it's possible, and we'll see what happens.
I'll add your vote to the item for feedback for interacting with the saved formations.
Cheers!
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?
Hi Daurakin,
Interesting idea, but she's already had the power for so long, it would feel weird to change her up now. I'll note down it was requested though.
