Topic: Castlot / Suggestions for Castlot

A new relic tier for 110 & 120 would be nice too.

Topic: Castlot / Introducing Equipment Imbuing

This is a fun update. I too think it’d be great if we could use pots for the higher tiers but the constant rerolling makes it quite fun too (even though it’s costly).

Topic: Castlot / Suggestions for Castlot

You guys are a bit off on how mass raising works. At level 6 Iron Dragon if I get no leaps it’s 6,600 exp, if I get 3 leaps its 10,430 exp. So it’s really not comparable to the single click route.

Topic: Castlot / Valor Medals

Since levying has basically been removed from the game, where are we supposed to get valor medals from now? Or is Ultimate Explore intended to be the only avenue?

Topic: Castlot / Bug Reports

Babel stopped working for me after the update, all I see is a beige box with the letter E in it. I have tried reloading, clearing cache and even using IE. Nothing seems to be working thus far.

Topic: Castlot / FvF Is Racist!

How shocked was everyone that Dark started out with lightning, and then the first weather change for dark was to lightning? Nothing like losing to mechanics and not people.

Topic: Castlot / FvF Is Racist!

Why does Dark start with lightning every single FvF? Does clapalong really think they’re that bad that they need a handicap every time?

Topic: Castlot / Decoding Mystic Buffs Of Faction Battle

There has to be some randomness to it. If everyone could max out every buff we’d be back where we started. Just 4m gold in the hole. It’s just annoying that FvF has simply come down to who’s CoD goes off first. It used to be fun having to switch cards around every round when fighting against an opponent.

Topic: Castlot / Decoding Mystic Buffs Of Faction Battle

Were Buff 5 & 6 changed? Last week I couldn’t upgrade them any more once the first for hit level 10. Mine stopped at 3 & 1, before I received the “everything is maxed message.”

Topic: Castlot / Suggestions for Castlot

1. Faction Battle – Allow us to garrison troops with Arthur/Blackmore – This would prevent the run by tactic that so many people seem to enjoy employing.
2. Faction Battle – PvP and PvNpc should not be weighted the same when it comes to credits. Killing 20k+ NPC troops a pass is a heck of a lot easier than killing 4k hero assisted troops. Currently the way rewards are set up you benefit the most by avoiding pvp and simply afk’ing vs npcs. That sounds like a lot of fun!
3. Relic Wars – Randomize the team structure when the battle takes place. Winning by failing is a crappy option.
4. Relic Wars – Countdown timers overlaying the time remaining on each relic would be really nice. Rather than having to click and see how much time is left.
5. Levy Tab – Didn’t recall all use to only apply to the active page? How is this VIP service beneficial as it stands now?
6. UI – Fullscreen… if you can’t do Fullscreen because of an agreement with Kongregate, a zoom out option perhaps?
7. Dragon – A radial for 1x, 10x, or 100x leveling bumps would be nice. Meaning I spend 20k, 200k, or 2m a click.
8. Materials – Gem Exchange – I think it would be nice if we had an option to trade 50:5:1 Green:Blue:Orange gems. Once you finish “race up” primary gems are useless.
9. World – Is there any reason to use the world map? You get very little resources from robbing. It’d be nice if we could get crappy green/blue items for evolve fodder if nothing else.

@Hunter – A larger population to play with to prevent stagnancy?

Topic: Castlot / [News] Castlot Server Mergers on Jan 3, 2012

3. Mails without attachments and Battle reports will be deleted. – Apparently mails with attachments were deleted too… At least it was only 50mp.

Topic: Castlot / Full screen mode

Since we can’t double exit the game anymore for full screen mode please give us a work around for this. The kong box is just to small for the amount of space we need for this game.

Topic: Castlot / [News] Newsflash: Ultimate Explore Gets Extended!

@Gamemaster63 – I did it with 3 blue & 6 green defense cards.
@karamkudzu – You should only feel insulted if you spent a lot of money on diamonds getting ready for the event. Otherwise it’s really just par for the course.
@krolik – it may have been snuck in your email this morning, I just happened to notice it with the NYE pack as well.

Topic: Castlot / Relics War

Relics are for lower level players to get a boost to alleviate the grind. They’re not for the people at the top to sit on and obtain those ridiculous prestige ranks.

Topic: Castlot / [News] Newsflash: Ultimate Explore Gets Extended!

Oh, boo, I was hoping to at least be able to fight through the hard stuff to have a shot at the free MP’s again. Thanks for the answer!

Topic: Castlot / [News] Newsflash: Ultimate Explore Gets Extended!

If the quest is completed does it still roll over and allow us to restart it?

Topic: Castlot / Bug Reports

That’s odd I’ll try to duplicate it if I can.

Topic: Castlot / Bug Reports

@Krolik – When frozen imp is used they have a fairly high chance of all getting to attack again before the opposing team swings. Unless you are saying they’re essentially attacking three times in a row.

Topic: Castlot / [News] Newsflash: Ultimate Explore Gets Extended!

I’m guessing it’s as Kalsitu stated. I’m going to have to get all those fights unlocked asap.

Topic: Castlot / Question about 11/29 Update

Ignore that I always forget about server time being 12 hours off my time…

Topic: Castlot / Question about 11/29 Update

1. Players can move to the NPCs that have already shown up in Explore without fighting.

How does this work? I’ve cleared pretty much every NPC on the map at least once, will I need to go back through and do this again or is there something I’m missing with the “move” feature?

Currently I can only move to a directly adjacent NPC and cannot pass without fighting.

Topic: Castlot / [Activity] Faction Battle

Feel free to ignore the part about morale.

Topic: Castlot / [Activity] Faction Battle

If you keep the NPC’s as beefy as they were in the last FB, I don’t think time really matters. I thought it’d be kind of cool if the instant one of the bosses dies a 120hr timer starts then the next FB begins. I don’t know about the rest of the players but that’d give you some time to refill your ranks and put more money into your cards. We really need a reason to have an active meta game going. I like what you’ve done with Arena battles (I just can’t participate) and having a reason to keep swapping around cards and trying new strategies versus different players would be great.

And since odds are you’re reading this has anyone else mentioned or complained about the morale loss in FB? I don’t like that if I kill 4x the number of troops fielded I still lose a ton of morale.

Topic: Castlot / [Activity] Faction Battle

Can we get a schedule of when the FB will occur. There’s really nothing to do except burn keys right now and I’d like to know when to come back on.
