**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**  
_Picture 2, the game tells me I have extra copies of Prisoner Luther and instructs me to ascend him. Actually, I have no extra copies of Prisoner Luther, see pictures 3 and 4, with Luther still at his base rarity Epic. I can’t ascend him, picture 5._

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
_This hero was created today, it has been this was ever since the Ascension tutorial became available in the library._

**Steps to make it happen again**  
With a newer hero, \*Go to library \> Click “Learn More” under Troop Ascension, Look at more upgrades for Prisoner Luther

**PART 2 - Troop Traiting Tutorial**

**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**  
Learn More activates a tutorial where Luther says we will use the traitstones I got in the mail to give Prisoner Luther his first trait. I was expecting to have enough traitstones to be able to follow the instruction. Picture 1 shows Luther telling me I have enough traitstones for the trait, but the traitstone numbers clearly show that I do not have enough. I have no option but to click the trait, upon which the game simultaneously says “Upgrading…” and “Error - You don’t have enough Traitstones to upgrade this troop.” My only choice then is to Restart Game. \*\*

How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?\*\*  
_This hero was created today, it has been this was ever since the Traiting tutorial became available in the library._

**Steps to make it happen again**  
With a newer hero, _Go to library \> Click “Learn More” under Troop Traiting, follow the tutorial prompts._

This is unrelated to 9.2, as I have had some random reports in 9.1, or at least similar.

I am going to manually send you the additional copies of the troop, then let me know if you still have issues

**Platform, device version and operating system:**

ALL.

**Screenshot or image:**

**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**  
_On a new character (currently level 14), I cannot complete either the Troop Ascension or the Troop Traiting tasks. Luther will not give me the traitstones or the copies of himself necessary for these upgrades. In the case of Troop Traiting, the failure restarts the game. I have tried re-installing the game (on multiple platforms) with no change._

I have purchased the Library Pass for this character, which appears to have been a waste; I cannot collect the 150 gems I was due for the Traiting task.

**Steps to make it happen again**

N/A.

@captain_video your invite code isn’t in your profile, so I can’t manually send you the copies

Hi Jeto,

Thank you so much for taking quick action. The mail went to my main, but the issue was on my alt. I should have caught that you might mail my invite code, I’m sorry.

The account with the issue is far enough to see the invite code now: THEBARISTA\_RSXB

While I have your attention wanted to make sure you clocked that this was a two-part issue. The Troop Traiting bug as well, described in the second half of my post.

Know you’re busy, just wanted to make sure you got the full picture. Not expecting instant miracles. Thanks again!

Goblin

I didn’t see the other post on this, sorry. TY for joining the threads. I am seeing the exact same thing as in the other user’s screen shots; I’m trying to play this character on Steam. Its invite code is LANNY\_LW3J.

OK, for me, that fixed the Troop Ascension. Still stuck on Troop Traiting. Luther says “Spend the Traitstones you received in the mail”, but I didn’t receive any traitstones in mail, either from you or the game. ☹

@Jeto you sent both mail to my main account IC errorlieshere\_3ri4 who is level 1,320. That’s the wrong hero.

The new save file is under THEBARISTA\_RSXB - if you would still like to get my new character unstuck, please send the mail there.
