Hi Erika,

I have 2 questions:

  1. Now that all runes are in play, would you consider giving as a one-time-full-reset option to remove all runes that were placed in the past, which would allow re-prioritizing based on new(er) runes?
  2. When I run dungeons for idols, I run them on level 3, but sprints for points at level 1. Of course sometimes I forget to switch difficulty. Would it be possible to allow a switch after starting the dungeon with some limit (e.g. before area 5 or while still within your sprint limit or only if your max dps for this run is below the dps needed for the area you have reached in the difficulty you want to change to)?

Thank you!

Hi Darkliandra

1) We aren't planning on doing something like that, and it would have made more sense to do it with the official drop of the last major batch of 5 slot runes. Plus, some players might not appreciate a sudden drop in power and having to put all their runes back.

Have you been making liberal use of your rune solvents and so don't currently have enough that you'd be happy with a mega reset?

2) I think allowing a switch while on the run would possibly be more confusing, and also something that would be forgotten on auto-pilot, if it did have to be done before area 5 or before you'd sprinted too far. I think a better compromise would be seeing if we can have separate difficulty saves for each objective, or as another player requested, the dreaded confirmation box with no option to hide it, if choosing the wrong difficulty level is something that is cropping up often.

Congrats on the Garnet rune launch. It seems very well thought out, balanced in power as you get higher rune levels, and implemented well. Haven't seen any bugs with stack accrual, calculation, or even with warps and skipping multiple bosses giving appropriate rewards and chests etc... and speed is always meta!

Any thoughts about T8 talents or a new Crusader that might start to speed up the passive accrual of runic chests?

Cheers,

Hi Bipp,

Glad you're enjoying Garnet's rune power. Wilson be happy to hear there's no bugs with it in general. :)

Nothing aside from dungeons to speed up free runic chest accrual at this point, but I'll add your vote to the item on the suggestion list about more runic chests or runes themselves.

Cheers! :)

Hey there, is tier 6 gonna be the last tier of new crusaders or are you planning on a tier 7 afterwards?

There are just so overwhelmingly many crusaders already, most of which have no use except for missions.

It would be really nice and refreshing to see focus on new aspects of the game

Hi birdbirdbird,

Events will continue to have new Crusaders added, with Tier 7 and beyond.

What aspect other than Crusaders would you like to see explored?

You're welcome for both!

I'll pass along the praise to the team. :D

At the moment, this does not mean forever. And it pleases.

I would like to know what will happen in the final of the event. Skin? Taskmaster? Legendary item? Something new?

Redeeming all 7 anniversary codes will trigger an idol buff, like in the past.

And I'm currently planning to have one of the codes award a taskmaster.

Erica, hey!

I am very glad that the game continues to develop. What used to be something new is now trite. And that's great. But it's a shame that much of the old is becoming useless. For example, many Tier 1 support crusaders have BushWhacker-enhancing abilities. Nowadays, the combination of the original crusaders and crusaders of the first tier range, where the Bushes Breaker would find its application, is practically not found. As well as the opportunity to combine Montana and the Princess. Will you ever have some free time to clean up the tier 1 crusader abilities?

And as always, thanks for the chest.

PS. As for the birthday of the game, are you also bound by a nondisclosure signature?

Hi dimitrius5naj,

The game will continue to receive updates as long as it makes sense to do so, so we're happy that players are still supporting Crusaders.

The earlier Crusaders still have their niche uses, but we aren't planning on rebalancing the old Crusaders at this point in time.

You're welcome for the chests.

What teases did you want about the anniversary celebration week?

Thanks for the chests and pass my thanks on to the team for another great dungeons season, the pass is great and it's well worth going for points on level 3. The only question I had was about Garnet's 5th Rune but I see that's been asked and answered so I will just be patient and wait, I'm sure it'll be worth it when it comes :) Have a great week!!

You're welcome for the chests and season! I'll pass it along to the team.

I hope the players like the rune, though there is probably some false hype from all the waiting.

Have a great week yourself. :)

Is there a reason for all that blank space in dungeon pass rewards lvl 30 onward? its painfull to look at

No, we don't plan on making the Dungeon Crusader's recipes available for the Epic Recipe Tokens at this time. I'll note down the idea was requested though.

Jialong has been ruling the game for a long while now. Any idea if he'll be dethroned?

Hi Darkliandra,

One day he might be. We'll keep trying as we continue to release the new DPS Crusaders.
