Topic: Time World / Bugs and Glitches

The Command Center on my home planet was in the process of being upgraded from level 21 to level 22. After spending around 700K in Ore and waiting over 50 hours, it had 6 minutes left to finish this upgrade when I got online (3/11/13 6:15pm – EST). I refreshed my tavern, and went to P2 to refresh that tavern. I got a message box that appeared dead center of the screen stating there was a “time data error.” The box disappeared and I was able to get to the tavern on P2 and refresh the heroes. I did the same for P3 and P4 and returned to Home planet. That’s when I saw my Command Center was “finished” but it is still at level 21! What happened?
I exited and returned,and my CC is STILL at level 21,(and with all the Ore having been forfeited).

HELP!

Topic: Technical Support / ministry of war

I have the same problem. (Have been playing for 2 years.) Where can I find this information from the developer that states Snail games requested MoW be removed from the Kongregate link? I went to the MoW official site and could not find any information (which is typical for Snail). Thanks.

Topic: Ministry of War / Can't finish loading MoW!

After 6 hours, I got a reply from the Help Desk. They already knew about the problem and suggested I clear my browser’s cache. Yeah, it it had only been that simple! No matter what I tried, I could not get the game to load past 54% with IE.
I even deleted IE (and everything associated with it), and reinstalled it- still would not work!!

So, I downloaded and then installed Firefox. Plus, I now had to download and reinstall Java and Adobe Flash (which doesn’t always play well with Firefox). Finally, I got the game to load! Whew!!!

(only to discover that the developers “stole” 32 items from my Inventory with not a single replacement or compensation as they had PROMISED they would do).

Topic: Ministry of War / Can't finish loading MoW!

Since the upgrade to the “older” servers, I have been unable to play MoW via #13: R & B. I can login as and get to the main page that has you select your server. I am able to select #13: R & B, and get completely connected to the server. But, after the screen changes and the graphics get loaded, it stops every time at 54%, and just hangs there. Have tried this on a second computer and have get exactly these same results. Any suggestions??

Topic: Ministry of War / 502 bad gateway error code

Well, now it seems we go from 502 to 440: Requested Server Is Not Available." This does not seem to be a step in the right direction! What is worse, is that the Developers and their Tech Support won’t even bother to give a response or offer a token compensation to those players adversely affected by these snafus (it’s not it actually costs them anything, and might even produce some good will from the community!)

Topic: Ministry of War / 502 bad gateway error code

All day, I have been getting disconnected from the server, but until, I was able to log back in. And it figures, I was in the middle of fighting off a raid. !#$%^%$#*!

Topic: Ministry of War / 502 Bad Gateway is a waste of TIME

Not to mention the loss of items. I was in the middle of using an Experience Book AND had been waiting for 50 minutes to talk to a GM when I got disconneted from the server. Meanwhile, the Exp. Book is counting down to zero while I am unable to login, and I have to go back to the end of the queue in getting help from a GM!!

Topic: Ministry of War / Can't Merge with the Merger

I have not been able to login to MoW since the merger of Survivors, Qirimirage, and Victoria. It is 1400 on 2-1-12 and the server still does not connect. I’ve tried Qirimirage and Victoria (Survivors does not even exist!)
Help!!

Topic: Ministry of War / "Failure to Transport"

Using an Exodus Card, I tried moving to a location (level 3) that was 417 units to the East (x axis) and 102 units (y axis) to the North from my city. The move failed because the “transport was out of range.” I was able to move my city to an in-between spot (level 3) that is 260 units East (x axis) and 90 units North (y axis) from my city’s starting location. I then tried using a 2nd Exodus card to complete the trip which is now, 157 units East and just 12 units North of this temporary location. Even though this distance is much shorter (<half) than the 1st move, the transport fails because this (lesser) distance is out of range!! I have been unsuccessful with repeated attempts over the past two days to make this transport (I’m meeting all prerequisites for using an Exodus card) There are no mountain ranges, bodies of water, or other countries to go through in making this shorter transport.
Please, any explanations or solutions?

Topic: Dream World / Level 60 Skills

I appreciate everyone’s feedback:) I was hesitant to just try switching classes during a boss battle without making sure that I could revert back, since DW is not too forgiving of mistakes nor lets you “undo” an action. Thanks everyone for your help!!

Topic: Dream World / Alien Portal Offerings

Thank You to everyone who replied to this topic:) It had been so long since I’d purchased any CON and could not even take an educated guess at the cost. Again, thanx!

Topic: Dream World / Level 60 Skills

I’m a DevilSlayer (level 73) and have followed the recommendation of having the amount of points in Sword skill be equal to my current level, and to have 60 points each for the Magic and Gun skills. My question is: how do I get access to Divine Light (magic), Big Bang (gun), and Call Bunnies (jester)? I have had Banish Dance (sword) ever since I got past level 60, but these other three don’t show up while in battle, even when I have the appropriate weapon. If the solution is to switch classes, can you revert back to your original class (and hopefully still be able to use these top tier skills)??

Also, I’d appreciate any recommendations on where best to put additional learning points. I have been saving up my gems to buy 9 LP packages which would provide about 2600 points. My base stats are: 94/120/60/64/71.

Topic: Dream World / Alien Portal Offerings

For the Alien Portal, is it cheaper to use the Demon Ring and then purchase 2 Constitution points (to replace those which were sacrificed), or to spend 2.5 billion in gold as an offering? My CON is currently at 120 (I’m undecided as to whether or not the Royal Crown is worth 21 gems for a gain of three points in CON).

Topic: Dream World / Santa and Allies

I played everyday during this event and one time I got 12 Santas and another time I got just 10. I usually averaged 6 per day. I have 133 energy and would typically go through this about 1.5x each day. I don’t think most players ended up reaping too much of a harvest from these Santas that KingK needed to place a limit of 24 per day!

Topic: Dream World / Class Weapon problem

Thanx!

If I have 172 in Strength but improve this to 180 with a weapon that gives +7 in power, do I get 10% bonus in block chance, or 9%?

Topic: Dream World / Class Weapon problem

So, the bottom line is that, boosting the sword skill until it matches the character’s level is a very good thing as it increases damage (whether it be the minimum, average, and/or upper limit)!!

Quick Question: Does boosting a sword player’s Strength also increase their blocking ability, or just the overall damage when attacking??

Again, thanks to everyone for all the information on this topic (and for pointing out that any weapon can be equipped when using the Call Bunny attack)!

Topic: Ministry of War / Unable to log in..

Same here!! I get either the “authentication failed” message or that I have not signed in (even though I am). Have not been able to play for the past 5 hours. I would have sent a message to the developers, but to date, they have never gotten back to me on any previous issue (or even acknowledged that they received my message).

Topic: Dream World / Class Weapon problem

Thank you, everyone for your replies:)
After magic and gun are at level 60, and I put more points into sword (to make it greater than 60), if I still keep getting Staves (which is what had happened to me before), is there anything else I can do to get the game to resume giving Sword drops?

To clarify:
- Does minimum sword damage increase when sword skill goes up or when Strength matches your character’s level (or is it both)??
- Once I get all three skill sets to 60, would I then get the bunny attack, or do I have to also multi-class as the Jester???

Topic: Dream World / Class Weapon problem

When I was a DragonSlayer, I had 45 points in Sword and 39 in Magic. As soon as I began to put LP’s into Magic, I started getting staffs and no more swords (even though I had never changed classes and kept wielding a sword). At that time, replies from the DW forum either maintained that I would be getting sword drops once I resumed putting points into my sword skill, OR had more points in Sword than in Magic (though that was already the case with my DragonSlayer!) But, though I stopped putting points in Magic once it reached level 45 and exclusively boosted my Sword skill, it was not until I had maxed Sword skill at 60 AND became a DevilSlayer, that the game resumed giving me sword drops!

It has been suggested several times in the forums that players should get all three skill sets to 60 (though I am not sure what the benefit is for getting my Gun skill past 13 (for Aim) other than the extra Skill Points). My big concern is that once I have all 3 skill sets to 60, that the previous situation re-occurs and I will be stuck with getting staffs.

Have I overlooked something or gone about this the wrong way??

Topic: Dream World / What did YOU get!!!

Alien Robe of Wisdom +3

Topic: Dream World / Chosing Armor

I am having some difficulty with determining which of these pieces of armor would be most useful:
A.) Alien Battle Plate of Power Def= 95, and Str=3
B.) Alien Robe of Power Def= 90, and Str= +8
C.) Alien Battle Plate of Agility Def= 94, and Agil=2
D.) Alien Robe of Agility Def= 88, and Agil= +6

Which Power armor is better, and which Agility armor is better?
Also, which of these four pieces of armor would overall, be most beneficial??

If this topic has been covered, I’d appreciate any info on were to find it.
Thanx:)

(In case this helps in answering my question, I am a Devil Slayer (level 71) with these stats: 69/120/45/46/55)

Topic: Dream World / The 56 Gem Question

I have the Elf Princess, and from reading the forums, if I were to purchase another ally, it seems that Lilith would be the best choice.

However, is there any advantage/gain to buying Lilith as a 2nd ally, or am I served well enough with having just the Elf Princess? (I am a Devil Slayer at level 71 and have the Greater Heal spell)

Also, any recommendations on what abilities I should boost when using the Ally Skill Books??

Topic: Dream World / Banker's Guild

I would like to thank everyone for your replies:) They were very helpful and so quickly submitted! Again, thanx!!

Topic: Dream World / Banker's Guild

Is it still worth the 42 gems to buy into the Banker’s Guild if you are going to be joining a player’s guild? (I’m not concerned about paying the processing fee for depositing your money).

I am at level 71, have one premium ally and will be buying another, in case that information affects anyone’s reply.
