Version 1.181

[Killiak]

Just to clear some things up.......the new buildings, the fields and the military boosters, will not be in the mystery object chest so no need to worry about a deduction of percent for diamonds......they all will however be made available to craft in the first slot only of the magic academy, yes the same slot our military boosters are presently being crafted in

How sure are you? The announcement speaks of added recipes, but when it speaks of the fields it is under the header of rewards.

The announcement, to me anyway, is a bit ambiguous. @anonglitch could you clear this up for me?

These were added to beta recently. They appear as choices to craft.

Thanks for the info.

I am wondering if this is not even worse, since it dilutes the choices we get.... meaning we'll get less and less actually useful crafting options.
And RR as crafting costs? Inno must be joking, or were extremely high when they thought this one up.

Yes, I do not really like all the flower fields to mess up my chances of getting military boosters...
Also, I would never use RR as a crafting resource! I rather craft RR's from blueprints/diamonds! So that recipe to me is the worst

Just got an in-game notice that RRs are now available at a discounted diamond price.
Go shopping!!

Uhuh... "discount"...
I make 30 RR in a crafting recipe that costs 3 blueprints or 900, at a cost of 30 per RR. The "discount" offer allows me to pay 1900 for 64 RR, which comes down to 29.68 per RR, can hardly call that a discount. The other two offers (300 for 9 RR = 33.33/RR, or 500 for 16 RR = 31,25/RR) are even worse offers than the crafting recipe...

The crafting recipe also gives me an additional 25 Vision Vapor, which gives me another chance of getting some Diamonds back from the Mystery Objects...

And I really wonder what they base their original (non-discounted) diamond prices on, as the 'normal' prices according to them for the 3 offers would be 315 for 9 RR, 560 for 16 RR, and 2240 for 64 RR...? Seems a totally random amount and as always, I wonder if that is allowed under European law...

@anonglitch ??

• We fixed an issue that allowed you to place Ancient Wonder even without having enough Royal Restoration.

Royal Restoration spells upgrade event buildings, have no connection to Ancient Wonders that I have ever been aware of in 7+ years of play ??

I also found that strange, must have been a typo...lol

 

[Se7en69]

FA waypoints costing diamonds...ooh yeah let the richest fellowships just buy the first spot..way to go INNO..you guys sure seems to be needing diamond sales urgently. This leaves a bad taste in the mouth for any gamer with the spirit of "may the best team win"...

 

[kimkimkim]

How sure are you?

I read and saw the pics from the thread about this in Beta

I no longer am progressing in one of my cities, therefore my RR spells have skyrocketed, so I too must be high as I welcome this change

 

[rowena656]

With all the items that you can now Craft, i think we might need more than 5 crafting slots, maybe 7 or 8 would be better to give you more chance of an item you would like to come around.

To clarify the Ancient Wonders and Royal Restorations. The bug we had meant that chapter 21 Ancient Wonders were unable to be built unless players had Royal Restorations in their game. Although these are not a requirement for them, this was blocking them from being placed. This has now been fixed in this update.

I suppose there is always a niche group of people that is willing / able to use them.
For me, however, every new chapter means needing loads of RR, simply because I have so many event 4x4 and 3x3 buildings. At no point have I ever had a surplus of RR spells.

Thanks for the explanation! Sounds like a weird bug, kudos to the one who discovered the unusual link between the RR's and AW's

 

[Killiak]

All these buildings are going to go into slot 1, increasing the variety of buildings you can craft there. Basically, we will see (a lot) less booster buildings. On the other hand, with the expanded set of options for booster buildings, we will be able to more specifically focus on the prevalent units for the type of tournament.

All in all though, it looks to me as though our odds for boosters are being heavily reduced, which will hurt over time. So, I have to wonder, why aren't more people up in arms right now?

I've started to give up hope that being up in arms has any effect to be honest... Inno does what Inno wants (mostly money driven)...

4 RR for a flower tile.
4 RR for one flower tile?
You are joking I assume.
Do you have an experienced customer voice in your developer discussions? If so, who are they so we can contribute meaninhfully to the discussions?

 

[Jake65]

4 RR for a flower tile.

Agreed.
i really like the flower tiles but at a cost of 4RR, I'll pass unfortunately.

 

[Taku21]

Can someone explain the rationale for crafting costs?
3 pet food requires 2500 fragments and 1 phoenix artifact.
The artifact costs 10k fragments and 3 blue prints.
So, 1 pet food is worth 1 blueprint and 4k fragments?
Who thought that was a good idea?

Thank you for the clarification @Silmaril the wording of the fix was a little confusing for many.
