Hey Erika,

Agent 79's Briefcase GE doesn't appear to exist. Can this please be rectified at soonest convenience (as getting Ricochet Training up as high as possible post-nerf is very desirable)

Hi Cassius,

We can consider giving her the Golden Briefcase sooner than later, depending on how the promo planning shakes out.

Can you guys please think about changing the with Soldierette legendary that is currently on Arachnobuddy? I think it was one of the goals this year to delink a lot of pair legendaries, but some of them have been skipped already for some reason?
Please reconsider doing such small changes for the future again.

Hi JustRikki,

We revisit the older Crusaders when the event comes around if there's time. I don't think we'll be able to get to it with the event this year.

Are you ready to leak what the big ability of the next T6 crusader is(I hope it's progressing nicely)? How are the S4 plans coming along, anything you want to share about it?

Looking forward to the next batch of runes dropping!

EDIT: I forgot to ask originally, but is Pascal's tag sharing still on the roadmap to take a look at why they aren't spreading?

It's progressing, but I haven't been able to test it yet, so not really comfortable with teasing it.

Season 4 plans are looking good so far.

Yeah, Pascal's tags are still on the to-do.

any chances that search for simon event makes return so new players can get that event's achievements which require event completed?

no need to be 2 weeks long, 1 week is enough to get saders and spending achievements.

The event won't return, but thank you for the reminder about the achievements.

Hey Erika!

Just wanted to discuss the "gold reward runes". I honestly think there is not a single player who find these useful. I made a suggestion thread (which seemed to have been received well by the community), proposing to instead make those runes reward you with a little bit of crafting materials, while still relating them to running gold reward missions.

What do you think of this suggestion?

Hi Daurakin,

We did see the thread, but we're not planning on any changes to the runes at this time. We'll keep it in mind though.

Hi Erika, Is there ever gonna be a new event, like. an entire new event?

If not, then any new campaign?
Also, chatroom2 asks if there will be an automatic rune merging system.

Hi Armyegg11,

We don't plan on adding a whole new event at this point, since the event schedule is pretty packed already, so we'd need to drop one, and then there's the question of if it would start at Tier 1 only or debut with all 6 or 7 tiers at once, which just gets a bit complicated.

I do still hope to have campaign 10, to round out the campaign list, at some point.

No automatic rune merging, but we are discussing ways to make it a little quicker.

Sorry about that. Amazon did maintenance on a bunch of our servers so the game was down and other services were down for a bit.

If you're using the Complete dialog that pops up when you visit the mission screen, I call that a complete all dialog sometimes, since it's giving you the option to complete all the missions easier than clicking on them individually from the mission list on the side of the screen.

So if you're using that dialog and clicking super quickly through it, sometimes previous missions animations/results can overlay the current mission you're completing.

Yes, I would like to gain experience faster. In addition to being one of the DPS multipliers, some Legendary improvements are tied to it. For example - Detective, Nate and Littlefoot. Not that they are very often taken, but in situations where there are no alternatives for them (campaigns with a choice of tags and challenges), and the total DPS from this is significantly reduced - I would like at least a minimal decrease in this effect.

No, this is the chance of triggering probabilistic abilities (Fire Rain at Phoenix, Skeletons at SkeleTom, Storm recharge at Mushroom, etc., etc.). Gourmet is, unfortunately, the only amplifier of its kind, and there are a lot of restrictions (by tags, slots and other factors) where it may not pass. So if there is a talent that somehow increases the chance of such effects being triggered, it will be just great.

Well, yes, it is good for points. And for those who scored on them because of their minimal influence on the total DPS - th...

Thank you for clarifying. :)

With 30 minutes for an experience point, you do get 16 every time you use a Quantum Leap Time Warp, or 1 for every Delorean Time Warp used, but you did explain the use-case for a shorter timer, so I'll make a note.

Tier 4 event Crusaders start with 300 EP when you unlock them, Tier 5 event Crusaders start with 450 EP when you unlock them and Tier 6 event Crusaders start with 600 EP when you unlock them.

Not that I expect brand new players to be tackling all 6 tiers of an event. I expect them to tackle 2 or 3 tiers, depending on their idols, gear, objective unlocks and Crusaders, and grab the rest of the event in future years. So 750 EP is fine for a Tier 6 event objective.

Erika,

Would it be hard to have boosts that would affect a mission? Like spend this boost to add 5 or 10% to a mission success after putting in your saders. Maybe offer them in the challenge shop and use challenge coins to buy boosts or sell them in packages say 50 boosts for $3.99.

Hi VioletHem,

Hmm, not sure how hard it would be, and at the moment, I can't recall if it's been requested or not previously.

It's definitely an idea though. I'll make a note.

If the mission isn't 100% because of missing the gear check, you can try and get gear for the Crusaders sent on the mission, and you can still increase the chance of it succeeding, since it checks at completion.
