Hi Adventurers, We have a hotfix going live very soon today which addresses a few issues. Please note that while we understand there’s some more pressing bugs that aren’t addressed in this hotfix, with the tight turn around before Christmas, these were some of the fastest, least risky issues to fix. We will keep working on those other issues up until Christmas and in the new year! We have fixed: - ‘Touch by an Angel’ achievement not progressing - Xbox, Playstation and Switch: Selecting a Dungeon door, then pressing the back button quickly, prevented you from being able to start Dungeon battles - Mobile: Rewarded Ads were missing - Fixed text on some screens where the text cut off or was otherwise incorrect ---

> [@Kafka](#): > > Mobile: Rewarded Ads were missing They were gone. But I wouldn’t call them “missing”. Definitely need a rewards buff because otherwise these ads are not worth 60 seconds of anyone’s day. ---

That little extra bump of gold or souls can be quite significant to an early-game player. ---

Decaying Gems don’t exist. Several troops can create Ghost Gems, you can find them with a search. ---

I cannot update the app on an Android device. Not enough memory. What did you do with the game that it became so fat? I already removed everything I do not use, and it requires more and more. Yes, my tablet is not new, but now it looks like I have to find some newer device just to keep playing. ---

I already removed everything I do not use, and it requires more and more. Yes, my tablet is not new, but now it looks like I have to find some newer device just to keep playing. There was a gigabyte of Cache data that I just removed from my own device. May want to check yours as well. That being said. ![1000003673](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/b/6/b643fc20cb353052b94df88141e8d2aa7b0d48ff.jpeg) 2 Gig does seem a bit bloated with little to no effort done recently to compress the game. ---

> [@CLARE](#): > > Ghost Gems 🤔 The best bet is Aldric the Frostbound (3rd trait 1 per turn) and/or Frostbound hero weapon paired with like a Egg Thief to pop them and repeat till bored. Options fall off a cliff after: Warg Spirit: Do damage make 3 Ghost Gems, Ghulemoth: Do damage make 2 Ghost Gems, destroy 8 gems. If you don’t have Aldric/Frostbound weapon, you can also run into Aldric in Sword’s Edge Explore Mythic Boss. ---

on reflection, it has to be more of a steam issue than gems, no? ---

Yes, most likely as your progress is saved on the game server in order to inform your platform that the achievement should be unlocked. But we have a programmer looking into it just to be safe. ---

After the update my Stellarix (but not only him) was nerfed, before he did 150 damage, now with the same team and in the same place he dropped to 144 damage. Did anyone else notice? (I’m on Xbox) ---

Did you unequip any Nysha medals? Or change teams to one with a lower magic bonus? EDIT: You said same team, so guess not. I sometimes notice Stellarix “nerf” after forgetting to switch back to Nysha from World Event medals. ---

I did it with 3 Nysha medal equipped and I’m sure, because I had looked at it carefully the day before the update. But it happens also with other teams, for example, the team I always use against safe gnomes (hard), Ruby Macaque, Czernobog, 2 Leprechauns (with 2 Nysha medals and 1 Anu medal), before I killed them in two turns, now Cedric is left with 7 health and the demonic gnome with 3 health and I have to take 3 turns to kill them. ---

No because the old campaign that gave magic had already ended a long time ago, the drop in power occurred right after the update. ---

Could it be because a troop had boosted stats from being the week’s featured kingdom or troop type? [Next page](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/8-3-hotfix/86657.md?page=2)
