That is one happy Turtle.🐢

Axolotl works too, but it’s strange how the embodiment of a raging Tempest brought Merlantis together.

The troop is okay. Not amazing, not terrible. Damage output is heavily carried by being Purple/Yellow (Astral Spires).

Well, I like that Merlantis has a perma part blue storm to support Azura, but I wish it made more than 13 mixed gems as a base.

What’s missing in the spell is gain an extra turn. It would then be a decent mythic troop to have.

+1 for Tempestus having no graphic on Android. Steam is fine, but even after checking the “Download All Assets” button (which returns “There are no additional assets that need to be downloaded.”) across two accounts (on three different devices) on Android, the troop remains graphic-less.

Damage wise I serious doubt it can outperform Atlanta (Yellow / Purple 12, magic +2 damage to all). It’s role is more like half-damage-dealer and half-board-destroyer (by lucky matches of those lightning gems).

Have the devs tried restarting their computers? Feels like an annual issue and restarts are the first step in trouble shooting problems.

Comparing a troop that casts once and drops the turn and a troop that semi-loops is kinda silly.

Right now my Tempestus does 237 damage compared to Atlanta doing 81 damage. So in one cast, Atlanta is doing 324 damage. Atlanta is pretty good.

However, I’d only really need Tempestus to cast twice to do more. It doesn’t always happen, but it does happen. It can loop, fill other troops, it can do high damage against 1-2 targets.

Unless I’m fast farming where I’m one casting with Atlanta, I’m taking Tempestus.

Iv already had 4 loops and more continuous on expl 12.

Just using temp with 3 taks. And not touching the taks.

Temp can beat ex12.

Atlanta definately can not.

So it has happened again…  
Well, if you - the team - would keep record of encountered bugs and the details pertaining them then you - Jeto - could consul said record before spewing useless advice that, at best, shows you as being just completely uninformed, annoying and mindlessly regurgitating memorized lines without any deeper thought and knowledge or, at worst, actively wasting time and mobile internet limits (reinstalling the game) for players who don’t know better.

We’ve encountered this particular bug (corrupted assets for mobile) multiple times before and, as others have shown you, it has nothin to do with _missing assets_ or _reinstalling the game_ (which you - the team - should be perfectly aware of).  
Were it a case of simply broken/missing assets (as your updates have been doing for mobile on regular basis for years already and you, the team, - needless to say - have done absolutely squat nothing to fix it) the game would automatically download them as soon as respective troop gets first displayed and, therefore, people wouldn’t be reporting missing pictures.

As a programmer I can’t comprehend how a simple asset can not be correctly referenced in a game. Mind boggling

It would likely only affect mobile or pc, its just knowing if its specifically pc, android and ios.  
And I saw your comment, so it’s all good.

It’s just anyone else reporting that they do have all assets downloaded and reinstalled, I need to know the device.
