Hello Erika, I was wondering about the new tier 8 talent Legendary Hoards if it increases DPS for every 5 legendary items level in the formation or for every crusaders owned.
Every 5 levels of legendary items across all your Crusaders.
A small suggestion due to today's new talent drop: When something that keys off a general total is added, please also add that total to the statistics page.
That's a fair request. I'll make a note on our QoL list.
Read moreI have had a chance to read your posts on runes.
We've had players with runes over level 10, which led to the e10 DPS increase (mostly) at level 10, push to get the 5th slot runes out there. It's also easier to buff things than nerf things, so I am open to revisiting the rune powers, in smaller batches at a time, now that they're out.
The Dungeons are meant to be the main source of runes, with the weekly sources there for extra and then spending if a player is so inclined. So I am looking at similar, if not more, rune drops for the season 4 rewards.
I guess since we overrode all the quests to be collect/kill 25 versus what is actually required for the campaigns we borrowed the backgrounds from, I can make a note about seeing if we can make it 2/3 kill 1/3 drop or something like that, and we'll see what happens.
Dark Dwellers was just changed for season 3, so I'm not going to change it again so soon. Fun and Games is definitely winning the informal po...
Oh, and that I need to do the rune scaling blog sooner than later.
Hi Erika!
Looking forward to seeing the last runes, Garnet included!
When will you guys be able to lift the veil a bit more on season 4? You spoke about different scalings on stream last week and it sounded really promising!
Hi XZlayeD,
I am looking forward to Garnet's rune when it drops as well.
Scaling, more runes, and the fun new prize are about all the teases for now, aside from Fun and Games getting changed up. :)
Read moreHave you had a chance yet to read either of my 2 posts about runes? Any thoughts you care to share if you have?
Regarding changing any formations, the only thing I'd like is if some of them(looking at you old school) could maybe get a few more areas that require 25 kills instead of picking up 25 items as the quest drops take much longer(can add upwards of 30 minutes to a run to 15k compared to the higher kill zone forms). In terms of the weakest forms, I think fun and games and dark dwellers are probably still on the lower end in terms of power. It's tough to say what will/won't be strong as I'm not sure what DPS requirements we'll be needing for next season.
Anything you are willing to share about the changes for S4? Are we going to be seeing some scaling to make it so that we require a lot more DPS to hit the same target area?
EDIT: Playing it Old School is one of the strongest forms we have, please don't change it's layout at all. Even if you don'...

Read morehi again,
have you had a chance to read gragatrim's posts about runes?
also, can we get a thoogoose skin for thoonoose?
thanks for the chests.
Hi Halaberd,
Yes, I have had a chance to read the threads.
I'll note down the request for Thoogoose skin and we'll see what happens.
You're welcome for the chests.
Not with runes, but with the gold missions, since those missions aren't worth much for a lot of us, it was mentioned to change those to reward runes instead, but you said runes aren't planned to have any changes for now, so instead of gold missions rewarding gold, a talent or challenge can convert that reward in a buff, like speed, warp, more drops of idols, things like that.
Thanks for clarifying. :)
Greetings one and all.
Wrt formation change, I would like to see the second one altered because it is the one that I am unable to break the 5k areas on. I am getting 5,600+ areas on all the others.
What are your thoughts on a talent that would, on the first completion of a boss area give a small chance of converting a silver chest to a rune chest?
I see it as a ten level talent starting at a 0.005% chance going up in increments of the same.
Finally, Thanks for a great game. Long may it continue.
Hi draco9881,
A vote for Free for All eh? Interesting, it's pretty Mindy and Tiernan friendly. I'll note it down though.
Given Ana can basically guarantee a chest drop on a boss area, a Talent like that feels like a lot of runic chests from sprint runs. But I'll note down the request for a way to get more runic chests.
Glad you're enjoying Crusaders. :)
So I have been super thankful to the great minds on the crusaders discord/reddit because they enabled me to make it to 15k in each dungeon formation. However, I keep finding myself feeling that, rather than enjoyable, dungeons feel like a chore to me. I don't have enough time in a day (my computer is off at night) to complete 15 runs of the dungeon each week and it leaves me with a strong FOMO feeling. I haven't had time to do any of the new objectives like cursed child, because I don't want to miss out on dungeon levels.
Has the team considered any changes that would allow the devoted players to get the same or higher level of rewards from doing tons of dungeon runs, while allowing players like myself to not feel like we are missing out?
I'm glad to hear that the community formations helped out. There are definitely some great minds playing Crusaders.
We've discussed some ideas for other ways to get points for the season, but nothing in great detail. I'll note down the request though.
Hi,
May you add a request to have a button that will allow deleting saved formation
Hi Vitalii,
That's an interesting way to add a Delete button for the formations. I'll add it to the item on our suggestion list to consider.
Alright, one of the complaints I have is about dungeons.
One of the things we need to do is shorten the point spread between goals. It's coming up on 16 days and since dungeon season began. Other than doing event missions and weekly challenges. I have spent all the time there. I am currently at rank 19 and closing up on 20.
This is a bit too much in the hope of being able to complete the entire thing with bonuses in the next 16 days.
I like the idea but the points need to be lowered and allow the end layers more attractive to players to participate in the next season of dungeons.
One suggestion is to elevate or declinate the point totals based on the following criteria.
1) Idols and 2) Legendary Ranks. This would adjust the difficulty and the amounts that are going to be needed to deeply go into the rewards for the next season of dungeons.
What area are you reaching on the Dungeon objectives?
Are you taking the ones with the bonus point buff at all? Have you done any sprint runs (where you just sprint to your max sprint area, or a bit higher, and then reset) for points?
Hi!
I vote for Fun and Games to be changed next dungeon.
Thanks for all y'all do!
Hi LC125,
Thanks for vote and stopping by the Q&A. :D
Fun and Games is definitely the formation that causes the most trouble. Beyond that, it might be worth taking a look-see at Achieve Flight.
Fun and Games vote noted.
Achieve Flight, eh? I'll note that to consider as well.
Definitely Fun and Games for a refresh. It is a consistent under performer both due to the shape and being the only 13 slot dungeon.
I see some don't like Old school for the no Mindy slot but even if you opt for leaving an empty slot and forgoing the Formation Full Up bonus it is still a better form than Fun and Games.
Fun and Games getting an update, will do!
This is kind of a silly response, if I'm being honest. No one's been demanding a refund for spent rubies if a change goes through, I've never even seen it suggested. It doesn't have to be a retroactive change to be a change.
No one may be mentioning it now, but 7 months of buying Rune chests for rubies at 300 vs 200 is a lot of chests missed out on, so someone would inevitably bring it up.
Erika, here goes.
- Can't wait for next batch of T8 talents.
- Question: Would it be fun if the dungeon formation should let me see 16 crusaders in formation?
Glad you're looking forward to Tier 8 talents.
We don't plan on having a 16 slot formation at this time.
Hi Erika,
Thanks for the chests. My personal vote goes to Fun and Games, there's just not enough space, plus there's only one spot in the back column which makes Marzi very sad. Speaking of Marzi, would you ever consider an overall power neutral / minor buff that makes them slightly less reliant on the back column slots? Something like a base value for Tempering Master + bonus % per slot in the back column, so they doesn't get so shut out. Alternatively, being a good candy dragon and all, Tempering Master could instead work with the number of unique tags in the back column, which is something that's more within the player's control than "number of back row slots". Thanks for your time.
Hi Not_Pro,
You're welcome for the chests. :)
Fun and Games is getting a lot of the votes, so we'll be changing it.
Marzi isn't meant to replace Sashimi in everything, more just to be an option, but I'll note down the suggestion.
Hi Erika!
No questions today, just wanted to apologize for not sending colouring sheets for a few weeks. I'll try to get my kids to do some this week, though!
Keep up the great work!
Hi rjakubec,
No need to apologize. The colouring sheets are there to have fun with, and the buffs are just small bribes.
Cheers!
