To be fair, if you didn’t level her and her pet at the time, it will still be enough to level them. 🤣 ---

Lovely nerf for Ipanema. Useless troop again. Excellent job, thanks! ---

> [@Eika](#): > > What happened they capped it at 30% on top of being a 10:1 ratio. 200 enemy armor needed to reach the max 30%. but it kinda doesn’t matter.. they made the damage normal instead of true damage, so if the player casts and doesn’t kill… the armor is now much lower to land that slay on the next cast. the 3rd trait actually is pretty good on testing, which is not what I expecting to say, but Merlantis already has a ton of good troops so a bad spell troop doesn’t have much room on any Merlantis/Merfolk/Blue/Green team. ---

Ipanema’s spell started out as inferior to that of P4-NTH4’s spell. A nerf just changes by how much. ---

I’m confused about this pet, because typically the holiday event would allow you to buy 30 copies (5x6) and you’d get the last one from the weekly task (which is this week’s yellow enemy thing). But I didn’t complete that and I have it at mythic already. where did I get the extra copy? EDIT: @DelMonkan just told me last weeks’ had the same pet? So we get 32 for no reason? lol cool. ---

is it possible to put a warning on the Power Down / No Change / Power Up screen that pops up during holiday events? I can’t count the number of times I’ve hit the A button twice to finish a battle and go to the next screen, then after a slight delay it defaults to power down and I lose a handful of event currency each event. It should default to Power Up, not Power down, but if that’s not an option, then a simple warning popup, Are You Sure, would suffice.
