What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:
I had cashed in some shiny tokens, I had already played level 137 with 400 towers killed. After applying shiny tokens the cost of the troop went to 0/2, the graphic changed and the troop, when cast, doesn’t allow you to choose a target and doesn’t change any opponents scores. This is so frustrating that I can’t change it back…
How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?
As soon as the
shiny tokens were taken from the chest
Steps to make it happen again
Just trying to play invasion makes it happen.
Issue seems to be that shiny level 2 switches the standard spell to the shiny spell. This shiny spell hasn’t been assigned, so it defaults to a placeholder spell that does nothing.
I just applied shiny tokens before going back to play. This is a pain. I paid for the booster pack, head start and two more tiers and I can’t play the game! Very disappointing
@Bramble@Kafka this will need fixed this week…there are some players that are severely handicapped now. Luckily i seen this post and got the word out to my guild before they upgraded theirs.
There’s more wrong with it than that. The shiny spell also seems to cost only 3 mana (reduced to 2 mana for shiny level 1). Apparently this is still a prototype that never got finalized and somehow went live, despite getting thoroughly “tested for bugs, balance and fun”.
As a paying player I’d be really upset about this. Buy the Headstart offer, receive shiny tokens that break your event troop, watch tumbleweeds while the event clock keeps ticking down.
And yet again, something else broke and can’t really help, this is getting bad enough with all the things to do and everything breaking, I’m really thinking to leave the game!
