I just upgraded my Warrior (Veteran to lvl 50). I'm on lvl 32 Cave, and the boss is super tough. Always kills the Archer first (my main damage dealer), and he has a lot of HPs. Anyways, I upgrade my Warrior to get better armor. Armor goes up 40 points, and in response the boss's damage goes up 78 points! So it's actually better if I don't upgrade my guys?! This needs to be fixed. If you are having a tough time on a map, you should not make it worse by upgrading you heroes.
The boss at level 29 is too hard....he regengerates 66% of his 56.1k health every turn. The only way to do damage is with your archer...stacking buffs until you can do 56.1k in dmg with a single shot or do close to that in 2 consecutive blows. I have stacked 14 stacks of Revenge (at 23% I was lucky to get that many), and I still can't defeat him before my party wipes. I stack 5 stacks of Protection on each person in the party. He always kills the priest first, then goes after the warrior. I get about 27-29 attacks on him before I die. How am I supposed to kill him when he regens 66% of his life back per round, and I only have a 23% pierce chance. I have started over so many times. The luck gods would have to be with me to stack revenge more than 14 times. I keep raising the warrior's shield (armor) values, but the boss's attack value increases at the same rate as my armor value, so he will always do the same damage. Fix this please.
Maybe I'm overlooking it, but how do you harvest ore and meat? all I can harvest is wood, and you have to have meat and ore to get the harvest nodes for that material.
Follow the tutorial help text early on. Unlocking different buildings will give you access to ore, meat and fighting, which you can then by workers to gather for you :)
If I buy upgrades with Kongregate coins, they disappear if I transfer cargo? Bought about $15 worth of upgrades, and now the are reset to default levels. Seems like a rip off. At least give a warning it's not permanent.
