I am putting this feedback into its own post as it keeps getting lost inside of the many other Hoard Mimic and Dungeon feedback posts and I’m pretty sure there are many others are in a similar position as me.
My scenario:
My Dragon’s Claw power level upgrade is stuck, I now have TWO troop options to get it unstuck and I have absolutely no way to work toward resolving it.
First Option: Hoard Mimic – RNG upon RNG upon RNG with no way to earn the troop
On the rare occasion when I do have the time to grind extra Explore battles just hoping:
- I get a Mimic Battle
- Which might trigger a Hoard Mimic battle
- Which might actually drop the Hoard Mimic troop
The Hoard Mimic drop rates are so TERRIBLE that I’ve only triggered the battle 4 or 5 times since the launch and on those rare occasions I wind up just getting more tokens which become medals that I no longer need.
Fun? NO
Exciting? NO
Nothing worse than ending a gaming session feeling like the time spent was completely wasted.
Second Option: Diamantina – RNG upon RNG upon RNG with no way to earn Dragonite
Fourdottwoone summed the Dungeon issue up perfectly in this post and presented some fantastic solution options to make it fun again here: Continuing the discussion from Dungeon Feedback:

SOLUTION OPTIONS PRESENTED
TL:DR -
My Dragon’s Claw power level upgrade is stuck, I now have TWO troop options to get it unstuck and I have absolutely no way to work toward resolving it.
First Option: Hoard Mimic – RNG upon RNG upon RNG with no way to earn the troop
Second Option: Diamantina – RNG upon RNG upon RNG with no way to earn Dragonite
Let me be very clear that my failure to be able to proceed in my game is because of the overuse of RNG with no way to work toward these goals.
This makes me very angry and frustrated with the game and frankly quite sad.
The very best part of this game, in my opinion, has always been the awesome balance between being able to work toward every goal in the game by playing the game along with the element of a single RNG to be able to help you get there faster if you were lucky! That’s fun!
STOP OVERUSING THE RNG - It is NOT fun!
