I decided to make a new crusader concept based on the "What tags or upgrades would you like to see for the upcoming Merci Mix up crusader." its a completed concept with a name, upgrades, formation abilities, gear, legendary effeccts, the mission tags, the story of the crusader, and if you guys at Codename want to use any of my ideas, your very welcome to!

Very thorough design. We'll keep it in mind.

Hey Erika!

VOTE: I'm torn on the vote. Katie, Frankie and Alacrity all sound good to me.

MERCI CRUSADER: A tag-combination I'd love to see some is some kind of demon clicker-tank. A chubby, four-armed devil, maybe having skills related to taskmasters and eating the monsters in a gluttonous fashion?

Just have a question about Dungeon Season 3:

Is it gonna be a bit less... intense this time around? Season 1 was already harsh, and season 2 was even moreso. While I did get a few idol runs in the very end, the point-farming prior to that was not particularly fun, to be honest.

My suggestion for dungeons: How about cutting points needed down by about half - BUT - also reduce the amount of runs you can do per week by about half? That way, the time required is significantly lessened, but it also makes idol-runs less cheap, since you'd need to use a lot of dungeon coins to farm idols a lot - which might be harder to come by with fewer free runs.

...

Hi Darukin,

Votes for all 3 then. :)

Oooh, a squat demon, that could be fun. Thanks for the suggestion!

We're taking into account the completion stats for Season 1 and Season 2 in planning the final points requirements for the levels for the rewards, and how long the resets take. It might end up a little less intense than season 2.

Thank you for the skin vote!

Hello Erika.

I wanted to ask if it's known around what time the Nate's Candy Conundrum will be this year? Seeing as it sometimes in March and sometimes in April.

And my vote is for Alacrity.

Hi Sjinkogaming,

The event start dates are definitely one of the easier things to plan.

Nate's Candy Conundrum is tied to Easter, which is why it moves around.

Looking at the calendar, Easter is the weekend of April 2nd, so I've started the Nate's Candy Conundrum event on March 25th.

Alacrity skin, noted!

Hey Erika,

I know Kat doesn't like gender swaps, but an Incubus skin for Sally would be in-character for a seductive demon (and hey, if Alacrity gets to switch between three options, a male skin for Sally can't be unfair, right?). Might mean gender-swapping certain of her effects, though (Seduction, Jealousy, her Whip)

As for the new mystery Crusaders upgrades, we're overdue a new clicker, but an upgrade that boosts familiars click damage (perhaps by +100% per familiar in play, multiplicative? ) might suffice.

Hi Cassius,

Skin for Sally, noted.

A new clicker Crusader eh? Sure, we can try again.

So you want taskmasters to be able to compete with, or overtake, projectiles in a sense? Because taskmasters already click 6 times per second with your click damage amount, and they do crit as well.

However, the stand alone is not working that well for me. But... it's working.

Improvements to the launcher chat, noted.

The stand-alone works in mysterious ways, and depends heavily on how much CPU and RAM you have, as well as the age of your CPU, and if you're using auto-clickers at all.

Hi, sorry if this is overstepping, but I was just curious if there are any plans to change the two Yogscast crusaders in any way, given the misconduct allegations that led to the removal of these exact two members from the Yogscast IRL.

Hi jazelock,

We aren't currently planning on changing any of the Yogscast crusaders.

Will it ever be possible to fuse multiple sets of runes at once?

For example, if you have 30 level 1 star (soul) runes, can you make 10 (or 15!) level 2 soul runes in one go instead of having to drag the level 1 rune to the merge button 10 times?

If you have a lot of level 1 and 2 runes, it can be a bit tedious when you want to make level 5 runes or above.

Yeah, we'd like to add a way to speed up the crafting of low-level Runes. Thanks for the poke!

A Katie skin that replaces the Angel tag with something (maybe human?) would be pretty funny. I'd say hold off the Rocky skin for when (if) you start doing skins which do something more complicated than just changing tags because his would need to give a significant boost.

A Human Katie could be neat.

Yeah, poor Rocky, the butt of a lot of jokes.We'll definitely keep that idea in mind for when skins have effects.

1.) Can CarPet get a level rune? It would be good for Power of Two. Ignore this if you're customizing runes to fit each crusader.

2.) My vote for the skin is Alacrity. They're the only one that mid-high level players use.

3.) When can we expect T4 11th for Mugwarts, and/or a new campaign?

1) The 5th slots runes will be custom to each Crusader. We'll keep the request to have Power of Two buffed on Carmen and Petunia.

2) Alacrity skin, noted.

3) Once season 3 is out, some more objectives for the permanent campaigns is on the list of tasks.

Hi Erika,

Great that the game survived the killing of Flash.

As the stand alone app works fine now Kevin will maybe have some time to improve the chat. Being used to the Kongregate chat there are some improvements possible to make it working.

Some suggestions:

— The player box is unnecessary long, 11 names could shrink to 5 or 7.

— The player’s names, please list them alphabetically.

— Make it possible to make players friends who then are listed first.

— Possibly enable private whispers to other players.

— Have text from players start with a local time stamp, it’s not inviting to react to a message if you don’t know how long ago it was posted.

— Can the announcements get a toggle in options? Not everyone is happy with the pop-ups that someone you prob don’t know got an epic hat for Squiggles. I know it’s mutable, still…

— Thanks for the mute function.

— The text entry field could use some more ...

Hi harimau2,

Yeah, it's doing OK so far after the death of Flash.

We would like to make some improvements to the launcher chat system, and we'll keep your suggestions in mind, though things like whispers and friending players are probably not going to happen.

You can't switch accounts once you've linked them through the in-game Option.

The only way to switch accounts would be to have multiple log-ins with Steam or our Codename Games website, and log in as a different user when you want to play the other progress.

Hi Erika,

now during this weeks challenge I thought it would be great to have some sort of counter that indicates at which area you would gain the next challenge token. Something like "Next token at area XXX" or "X more areas for the next token". I guess it could be merged with the challenge icon that shows how many challenge tokens you have already reached in the current run or placed below it.

It's nothing super urgent but it would be a nice feature that makes it easier to estimate if it would be worth it to push to one more token or not.

Hi towerarmor12,

Wanting to see the next challenge token is totally understandable. I'll add your vote to the item on the suggestion list and we'll see what happens.

Yeah I know a bit late, but hope you still look and might answer.

Now that we are going towards season 3 of the clocktower, I was wondering.

Do you have any thoughts about rerunning the different towers or will we see new ones?

If yes, how often do you think you may rerun them, will it be random like challenges?

Thinking that some people who slowly gain more idols, would like a chance of getting the achievements to reach level 25 in the crypt, as they may get the DPS/speed to be able to get to 25 in the clocktowers at a later date.

Hi Bazzturd,

Once we've released 4 seasons, the themes will repeat.

Our current plan is that we'll have new season completion achievements for seasons 5 and onward, with the originals being hidden if a player didn't earn them.
