I’ve got 15 trogpoles at legendary and it says I need 15 to ascend to mythic. But the ascend option is unavailable. Do I need 16? ---

The “cost” is how many get consumed when upgrading, you still need +1 to keep after, so yes, 16 in that case. ---

Thanks. I would have thought that the 15 would be consumed to create 1 at mythic level. Perhaps the text should say 16 to clarify the real situation. Looks like I wasted 50 gems today lol. ---

If one has, for example, ![Capture](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/d/8/d812e86aa3f3ab1c43b41eb8a8f3531a1d4840fc.jpeg) and looks under BONUS tab when clicking on the pet, it quite clearly states: ![Capture1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/4/5/45a3df012797cff509381e29d1cc50346bbc3786.jpeg) meaning that it requires 16 legendary pets to get 1 mythic pet. Although, I agree that somebody unfamiliar with how ascension works might get confused when looking under Level Cap tab and seeing that the cost is 15 - it does look like the procedure is _‘exchange 15Legendary for 1Mythic’_ instead of _‘give up 15Legendary to make the reminding copies Mythic’_. ---

Change is coming, soon. Well, maybe not soon. Still a few Russian translation issues to fix. A few French ones as well… I bumped a relevant thread, sorry for no links.
