Thanks for this HUGE patch!  
I am really surprised that I have only one star for my kingdom power despite 1600 points.  
Is it normal? I thought that the max points was 2600. That means it’s currently impossible to obtain kingdom power level max?

It’s currently possible for most kingdoms but SUPER difficult (you’d need everything at Mythic L20 with full traits unlocked). As we continue add more troops to the game, it will get easier though!

</div>

I understand but I have 1600 pts and only level 1… I thought that with 1600 pts I will obtained 3 stars 😛 .  
For level 2, it asks me 1700 points. And level 5, it’s 2600. So level 3 must be 2000 and level 4 2300…  
But why this distrubution? I thought that it will something more constant (1-\>600,2-\>1100,3-\>1600,4-\>2100,5-\>2600).  
But in all cases, I really enjoy your works ;-).

I have a _couple_ of bones to pick…

**Ascension can only put in troops to sacrifice one at a time.**  
I don’t know why this is the case, seeing as we’re only ever going to do it when we have enough to go all the way to the next level. That should have a button for that purpose, either instead of or in addition to the ‘one at a time’ button. Commons are going to wear out my mouse.

> [@Shimrra](#):
>
> **Guild Key Tasks are now 6 Glory Keys for the same price.**  
> As theorized before, these should be rebalanced to reflect the fact that a Glory Key isn’t actually worth as much as an Iron Key. 6 for 15k or 20k, or 10 for 30k, or something. I will personally be holding back my gold until this is changed or my guild disagrees with me, the latter of which I doubt will happen. Unless Glory Keys are somehow better and we got Gold Keys for free for some reason.

Nevermind that one. Becomes 12.

**Maximum Clarity?**  
I realize this will probably surface in the next 24-48 hours, but right now I’d love to know how much money is needed for VIP Level 10 and/or how it actually works. And how many points we need for Kingdom Level 10. And a couple other similar late-game totals.

Oh and the $25 gem option has conspicuously vanished.

Okay, first, YAY! Everything looks great! Opening lots of keys is awesome! Traits look super cool! Shop looks beautiful!

Second, thank you for all your hard work on this. Also, thank you for listening to our feedback - don’t think I didn’t notice the team bonus restrictions to unique troops or the fast speed option tick box!

Third, dang, I have to go to bed now!

I finished a task, and it popup up exploration task, says 12 keys reward. Maybe if you are already on Exploration task, it stayed at 6.

My keys disappear so fast. 😢

Um. HOLY CRAP so many units became useful! This is awesome! (Well after trait stones of course).

Armor regenerating Paladin? Yes please.  
True shot? Thanks!

So now we know. Commons need 5+10+25+50+100 to get to Mythic. Total 190. I can get most of mine to _Legendary_ but Mythic would need nearly double the keys I started with… 4500~ Gold keys. Coulda opened up more before the patch, too late now. It’ll happen eventually though, right?

Just as an idea, would it be possible to award some points towards kingdom power for completing challenges the first time? Doesn’t have to be much, just a bit to make them more interesting, they feel pretty obsolete right now. This would probably benefit new players most that don’t yet have a large pool of troops/souls to improve the power level. Maybe stretch the overall points required scale a bit if this would lead to the max level getting reached to easily.

kingdom challenges have been updated and are now harder when you get to 50 or more levels

Treasure Hunt reward scaling is odd. Vaults (the final end-stage chest) went from 2 Iron Keys or 1 Magic Key to 5 Glory Keys or 1 Gem Key, respectively. Shouldn’t it be at least 2 Gem Keys?

Had to do a bunch of maps for it to show me that one. And I don’t even know how the main currency scaling has fared.

Is it just me, or is resource management bewildering now? I mean, trying to decided how and when to spend gold, glory, and souls gives me a headache… I like options, but this might be too many. lol

That’s without mentioning having to manage the 40 odd traitstones of all blasted colours… Getting very confused!
