I am wondering if Emperinzara will be able to summon it as part of her “Random Kobold” spell It would be interesting Pure Faction speaking. Ps: No The Tower announcement yet? ---

Event chests have been configured incorrectly in the past. Infinity Plus Two doesn’t compensate for keys wasted due to their mistakes. If you plan to spend a large amount of keys, make sure what you are looking for has already been found by other players. ---

> [@Jeto](#): > > - Silent Sentinel: 6 Shiny Rocks > - Hive Mind: 6 Shiny Rocks > - The Frostfire King: 8 Shiny Rocks > - Obsidiaxas: 8 Shiny Rocks > - Shoggorath: 4 Eyeballs > - Xerodar: 4 Eyeballs As every week the reminder, that players should be able to find this information in the game. And as every week, you will silently agree, but won’t be able to convince the development. Let us both remain persistant annoyances about it. At some point they will give in just to make you shut up. P.S.: > [@Jeto](#): > > The battles will drop a variable number of Shiny Rocks and Eyeballs (on average about 1.18x the base amount). The wording on this part is a mess. I guess, it means that rewards increase with level. Am I on the right track? [Edit:] On second thought, it might mean, that the rewards do not increase, but vary on an unspecified spectrum. Couldn’t you simply have listed a range instead of that? ---

I’ve suggested better wording before, but only one point out of 3 was implemented, sadly. ---

> [@alv-thanos](#): > > I am wondering if Emperinzara will be able to summon it as part of her “Random Kobold” spell It would be interesting Pure Faction speaking. From my limited testing, doesn’t seems to be possible, always the same 3 other faction troops. They might need to make it clearer in Emperinazara’s spell. Although, Deep Faction of Emperinaza will come eventually, so more summon-able kobold will come by then. It was such missed opportunity indeed. Pure faction would be a bit more fun with this addition. Not necessarily easier, as Emperinaza is one of the easiest faction anyway. I find it strange sometimes how they would release a Glory troop that was clearly inspired by its home faction, but doesn’t belong there. It’s happened even before Deep Faction become a thing too. > [@alv-thanos](#): > > No The Tower announcement yet? It was already over the 3 month limit too. They should make at least some announcement about why the delay happened. Personally, I’m find with waiting a while longer, as this tarot won’t increase the star level anyway, need one more troop, which is coming soon ok Hellcrag week. > **My speculation...** > > They might delay it so they can release the tarot as the same time as Mythic The Colossus, a possibly Soulforge craft troop with this tarot as main ingredient, like the wolf pairs. It keep getting new added info and name change, so if it’s coming soon, Hellcrag week would be the perfect time. ---

Please, devs, it’s less than 3 hours before the Deep Faction Event will be live. The troop is still Blue/Yellow right now, while the faction is Purple/Green, so it’s not even pickable. It’s Burning Ocularen issue all over again. Please fix it before the event goes live, and not wait way too long like last time. Thanks in advance… ---
