Do these kind of effects stack? Such as multiple greedy or multiple jinx?

How do they stack? additive or multiplicative?

I know you guys (and girls) are working the most you can to bring us this update. I also know you are waiting for apple approval, and time of update isn’t in your hands so please be straight with us. Is it likely that we will get it before 21st or we will have to wait next year?

Exactly, would be a shame if all that free time around Christmas doesn’t go to upgrading at least a couple troops to mythic and collecting a bunch of traitstones.

</div>

so 4 Peasants with full traits would get:

+2 attack (for having 4x humans)  
+6 life (2 for having 4x humans, 4 for having 4 blue allies)  
+12 armor (2 for having 4x humans, 10 for 4x swords edge)  
93% reduction of masteries (0.5_0.5_0.5\*0.5)  
+25 water mastery (4 blue troops)  
+8 gold when matching

_giggles_

Seeing mythic legendaries is just making me sad because I doubt I’ll ever have any beyond Goblin King.

It’s looking good. But I can’t guarantee anything.

Multiplicative, I believe.

This is just a test account I have. On my live account I only have 1 legendary with more than 1, Webspinner for which I have 2.
