I've been playing this game for weeks, but just now realized the totems show number of charges left by number of tiers with runes colored.

Hej, tough I think the luck factor should be decreased a bit, you should get like onle +2 weapons from 3 or 4 dragons to kill and +3 from 6 or something.
Also it's a lot of grinding to level the huntress and the dwarf, maybe find a way to replay the easiest caeer quests with them or increase a bit the xp of smaller monsters, I mean with 200%+ bonus some average monster give only 30 xp.

I have a lot of opinions on Kongregates new way of badging things.
But I'll not let that influence this comment -
I'm positively surprised by this game. Yea, I've only killed one dragon, but I still want to commend you for making this game feel like one of high quality, atleast in the start. The Narration helps with that A LOT, great job.
If I have one little wish so far - it would be to let the Narrator keep talking when entering a battle. I want to hear the narrators beautiful voice, but I also want to start killing enemies as soon as possible, so it's a bit sad I can't do both.

Too bad you gotta include pay to win achievements, makes me not want to play anymore, as i like playing games that i can 100% without cash. I think achievements gotta be a way to stimulate buying the premium version as it is easier to get those achievements, specially harder ones like killing 1000 dragons. They're a way to keep you hooked to the game. When there's achievements you cannot win without buying premium, i usually search for other games with achievement instead. Hope it changes in the future, i'll come back if that happens.

Like many such games without upgrades progress get slow and then stuck at some level. But I am grateful to play such great game for free a long time.

Nevermind. Looking at the comments it looks like there IS a way to get Shock and Awe... should've kept my mouth shut just a little longer XD

i can't believe i missed this before:
the Elf can "leap' EVERY turn.
she also has a "leap attack" where she jumps OVER an enemy!

Okay, so after extensive testing and failures, I got The Works. This one's really tough. You have to start with the human and get a feat bonus. Try to surround your targets in fire and/or pits beforehand, as you can't use scrolls once a feat triggers. Bull Rush a large enemy with at least two health back, pinning it between you and another enemy with pits/fire/the edges of the arena surrounding everyone. This requires a LOT of luck to set up and pull off, so good luck! I got this in a 8 white dragon hunt.

If you had the prerequisites for the new achievements prior to the addition of the second set of badges, just finish a game (even if you resign) to get them awarded.

guess what? for the bolt badge, i explore the FULL map, and i found ZERO bolt, and i have to grind 4 more stupid map again to get another chance! bad badge

Hej, indeed, all heroes level 18 is crazy as a free player (can use only the human as daily quest), and also the bolts are not available as a free player.

Dear developer, as looks like you are in fact interested about the badges added to your game, care to talk to Kong so they can change the Defender's Heroism badge requirement to lv 12, or make it an impossible? Surely it has much more work involved than the current impossible. Thanks.

@evoluchien, in Career mode, every time you beat red dragons, you can play as premium vs white dragons. So, yes, it's possible, as I just did. That said, the person adding badges has no idea what is doing. I have killed 228 dragons until now. My heroes lv 13, 9 and 8 haven't 1M XP combined. The hard badge for lv 18 requires 10M for each hero. The impossible will come MUCH faster. Should be lv 12 it would be ok.

evoluchien, bolt scrolls are same as any other scroll. They can be found randomly in any dungeon. For the achievement, bolt pillars count too. As a free player, I've found bolt scrolls and pillars in multiple dungeons.

"Shock and Awe – Kill 2 monsters with one bolt scroll" So now there's premium-only content included in the badge requirements? Is there a way to use Bolt Scrolls without spending money that I've missed?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@Arcanmster It also awards retroactively (that's how I got it), probably based on the Shock & Awe achievement in game.

You can use bolt scrolls for the badge if you win 5 career games -- that gets you one free game with premium features. Level 18 is impossibly high though. I love the game and have put in lots of time over the past month, but only just reached 14 with my highest hero.

So, one of the new achievements is contingent on using a scroll that you can only use if you pay for it. Brilliant move, Kong.

Me with eight health potions and a 98% hit chance. "Ok, but what if I walk in a slow circle so I can push this kobold down a pit?"

I very much like that every room is basically a self-contained puzzle best solved through clever use of scrolls and a hero's unique abilities. The sound design is also excellent.

That is not the kind of badges we used to have here on kongregate, Endurance badges lasts much less than that, while impossible is usually reserved for something that require skill, and is only occasional. The lenght of this one and the fact that doesn't really require any particular skill but just grind makes it completely off the kongregate old standards, therefore people getting mad at this change.
Then maybe it should be based on Fame Level instead of dragon kills. There would still be a grind element, but skill would be more important because you only go up in fame by winning games which get progressively more difficult.

@Snooj your score won't increase until you reach your old score that included the daily hunt with JUST THE DRAGON, so for example I have a score of 707 but 98 dragons killed, so unless I kill 609 more dragons, I won't see my score increasing anymore. So yeah we would have to do 100x more work to get the badge than the people who already got it (Cheaters excluded). But I'm here just to read comments about this, I won't play the game anymore I lost all my motivation. 1/5 for badge choices and badge management.
People who already got the 1,000 dragon badge mostly likely did so by killing 1,000+ dragons. The dragon killing records go back long before we implemented the badge, and there are lots of players who have killed 1,000+ dragons, which you can see by looking at the Dragon Kills high scores (which do not include the hunt kills). I'm not sure if people who got that badge from hunt kills will lose their badge or not - that's done on the Kongregate side.

Dragon Kills don't get updated until you finish a game. That may be why it does not look like they are counting. Also, with the recent bug fix, your new Dragon Kills stat may be less than the old Dragons Slain stat because the old stat mistakingly included hunt kills.

Greeting developer, it was not a bug, it was a feature. You go and kill 1000 dragons, I’m done with your game unless you reverse the change and modify the badge description. And please give me back the weeks I spent doing your daily challenges.
We apologize for that bug, but it needed to be fixed in order to be fair to all the players who are attaining the achievement correctly through dragon kills. However, we will soon be adding a Monster Kills achievement, and all your hunt kills will go towards that. Once that achievement is added, you'll just need to complete a game and all those kills will be included.

Hunt kills counting towards the Dragon Kills stat was a bug which we just fixed. MISIFreak - are you sure that dragon kills are not counting. Is anyone else seeing that?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Two things to hopefully make your badge grind a little easier: As people have already said, the Daily Hunt targets count as dragons for these badges and are significantly easier. While you only get one chance per day (unless you bought the full game), it's still highly recommended to give it your best shot. Also, in Career and Campaign missions with multiple dragons, if you kill some but fail to kill them all, the dragons you did kill count for badge progress, so even if you think you're going to lose, try to take out as many dragons before you're forced to flee.

Rolls were slightly bogus to begin with. All the odds skew to favor the enemies, period. Across the board. So I buy the full game, thinking, Gee, maybe that will improve with the premium version that they will be charging even more for in days.
Wrong. The rolls somehow got worse. I just sat for a half hour, kept starting the level over and over again to get to the first treasure item. NOT A SINGLE +4 or higher in all that time, mostly +1 and +2. WTF IS THAT ABOUT???
I have nothing but buyer's remorse from go since I suddenly now can't get a single weapon or armor I can use, only crap with witty names that guarantees a swift end at the lair because I'll have burned up any potions I'll have found just to get there because of the &*%*-tier quality junk I've found.

Parecia que seria legal, mas após perder 7 vezes no segundo dungeon porque só tiro números baixos nos ataques e defesas e a roleta não me dá um upgrade de armas e escudos maior que 2 ou 3, não vou mais perder tempo nesse jogo.
