**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened?** I was expecting to be able to play all the challenges once I complete the questline… like in every other kingdom. **What are the steps to make it happen again?** That would probably require to intentionally mess up the server… I remember that during the time that I played the quests there were huge server issues - I was getting reconnection screens with the retry button and also some kind of weird errors that said something like: “Cannot complete battle, because another battle is in progress” or something like that. I remember that one the quests I had to complete twice - because the first time I finished the quest I got one of these weird errors and the quest didnt complete, so I had to replay it… Its more than likely that the quest this thing happened to me was the quest that was supposed to unlock the challenge. **Do you have any screenshots or video you want to share with us so we can see the problem? Attach them to your post!** Sure do… the challenge in question is in Blighted Lands, its called When Dragons Cry… Heres a picture: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/2X/0/020e7d5f2ce1350559efc0835f55d15c607c0687.jpg) I imagine that there might be other people who have the same problem with a different challenge, depending where they got the server issues… In any case, I doubt that there would be a simple solution other than reworking the challenge unlocking system - I mean rewriting it, so that the challenge wont be unlocked by “one-time” reward after completing a quest, but rather everytime you open the challenge it would perform a check whether or not the quest is completed or not… But this type of solution would probably only be necessary if this kept happening on a large scale, so I guess that in this case it might be simpler to just manually unlock the challenge for me or any other people who were affected. ---

Holy cow, that was fast… Thanks very much. And btw - good job on the update. Iam very happy to see game getting more content and the overall direction its headed seems very promising. I know people will more likely complain about the things they dont like, and Iam sure that reading the forum these days can cause a headage, so heres something for a change: I love the heroes rework. Classes give you more customization, stats of heroes are in line with ascended troops, the fact that heroes have a kingdom and can have a type from trait is awesome. The magic bonus to certain weapon color promotes variety and experimentation (might require some more weapon balancing down the line, but I like it). The fact you need 250 wins to unlock a weapon - you hit the sweet spot there… If it was like 50 or 100 wins, it would be too easy to get. If it was like 500 wins, it would be a boring grind. This way you can get the weapon in a reasonable amount of time and considering there are many classes, it gives you something to strive for. I especially love what you did with Miner and Tyri… kudos on those changes and I hope we can get more unique abilities like that in the future… There you go… Just wanted to let you guys know, the work is appreciated. ---

Same area, slightly different issue. I completed the Blighted Lands quest line but the “Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang” challenge isn’t unlocked. ---

I have a similar, though not identical issue. I had to play the last battle of the Blighted Lands quest twice because after finishing the first battle the game froze and I had to kill it and restart. But after winning the last battle the second time, I noticed that the last challenge “Devil’s don’t cry” has not unlocked… ---
