That is one long Christmas break you have. It's good, very good, I hope I'll have such a break when I start working.

Yeah, it's definitely a nice perk. Just how it worked out this year with where Christmas and New Year's landed.

Yup, they'll definitely bring more spice to the game.

Hi Erika

Great game love playing it ! Only one question. How many idols or crafting upgrades to be able to beat mutiny? I've gotten mixed messages from many. Just a general idea will be enough.

Thank you,

LazyBast

Hi LazyBast,

Well, you'd want enough Idols on hand and then legendary levels and runes on your B-team to be able to clear about area 4000 on a normal free play on Ghostbeard's Greed, due to the difficulty compression on the objective.

Given that Tiernan, Hildr, Imani and Odile aren't blocked on that objective, I'd say the Idols required has probably gone down a bit since it was released, though you still need at least level 8 of the Arithmagician Talent, so in the e10 - e11 range.

JK, not here for the GE, I already stopped playing 3 months ago. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/606980460467191808/761611757428277298/unknown.png

Just saying thanks for the good times, and I miss seeing Kat's fabulous creations in the game.

Thank you for stopping by coani. I'll let Kat know.

I will add that I don't delve into the Dungeons because the payoff versus progress is not worth it. I focused on gaining idols, and quickly lost interest as the time to achieve any benefit wasn't worth it. Simply put, I did the math.

I would say that doing the math seems to be the issue. Keeping a game engaging and challenging is a full time task, and to add new features takes effort and calculation. With these new avenues mistakes are made, and I would hope that all can understand that. I do as I am in the software engineering business. The most important thing is what you do after a mistake has been made. Ideally you acknowledge it, analyze it, and remediate it. It seems that there is an issue with remediation at this point, as well as with play testing before features are released. I would posit that involving the long term high idol count players in pre-release play testing would be to everyone's...

You're welcome for the chest.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the situation. We'll discuss the viability of maybe reviving the player council in 2021.

Happy holidays. :)

hi thank you for making the giveaway go on for almost a whole day because i was sleeping

i have many questions like can you make a talent or something that changes quests that drop items into quests that kill monsters

when are you going to make effect bubbles usable in modern formations. they overlap, keep refreshing, are really small, and dont show everything so they are really really hard to use

why does hildr buff projectiles like karl when they're not upgrades i mean mindy can mimick them

why cant hildr buff pennys trash pickup

why cant mindy mime adina hero league when its not even good

why is aegis middle legendary so strong but robosanta right leg and exterminator middle leg are weaker when the number is bigger can you buff robosanta and exterminator to be the same

why does mindy mimicking monstrous assembly end up weaker than original monstrous assembly even with legendary hat

why dont runic chests restock with...

Hi,

That is certainly a list of questions.

can you make a talent or something that changes quests that drop items into quests that kill monsters?

That wouldn't be a talent that we add. With all the Crusaders who improve the chances for monsters to drop quest items, those quest goals go pretty quickly these days.

when are you going to make effect bubbles usable in modern formations. they overlap, keep refreshing, are really small, and dont show everything so they are really really hard to use

It's definitely something that would be handy to improve, but I don't have an ETA on when we would get around to it.

why does hildr buff projectiles like karl when they're not upgrades i mean mindy can mimick them

Hildr can buff the upgrades that improve a projectile ability, like with Karl's upgrade to add more footballs, as those are upgrades.

Re: crow, I just lost like 3k areas. I'm not even angry, just apathetic. Why should I bother with building formations and optimizing and all that when interactions can just be killed at the drop of a hat? Interactions that you were informed of a few days after release and made no response to. Even more so when requirements and all that will continue to be scaled to the previous levels of power. And now the replies seem to show that I can expect more such nerfs in the future.

Recent direction just makes me feel that like you guys don't understand your game and don't care enough to continue to make things attainable for people who don't play 24/7. I'm guessing that I will stop caring if the trend continues, and that's probably quitting time at that point. Would be a shame, I liked the game.

I apologize for how the Crow situation was handled. We'll try to do better in 2021.

If the server crashes and everyone emails, we'll do our best to get it back up as quick as possible.

Hi Erika

Hope you and your family are safe all the time.

I wonder how you gonna raise up the round of maximum reward for next season.

(for example 14K for seson2)

Hi lflsban,

Yup, they're doing well, thanks for asking. I hope you and yours are doing well too.

We'll review the season 2 data before settling on the changes for season 3: the amount of points required for the levels might go down for the rewards.

Well, seems like things are going well...

Just another hope for something in exchange for the extra epic recipes from the reward, still annoyed that it's something that can't help me at all...

Yeah, we'll look at changing up that reward for next season.
