They always deny this at first, deliberately spread misinformation and ultimately refuse to communicate further once enough proof has been presented. Avoid spending money on this event, you may receive something inferior to what you paid for, their support will just close and lock your compensation request. For the most recent case of faulty loot boxes and how they were handled, see [this thread](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/spin-me-right-round/72024) and [this summary](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/arachnean-weaver-compensation/72178). ---

Wu Hao’s Traits: Immune to Mana Burn and Mana Drain Twice??? Also: No new tarot added to vault lately? ---

Amen to that. Wu Hao needs a better third trait or it won’t have much meat in her bones. I think Transcend would be a good replacement since its a common trait in some Shentang troops Eg. Diviner, Spearmaster, Spellblade. ---

Transcend wouldn’t be of much use to Wu Hao; her spell doesn’t scale at all. Maybe something simpler like Elf Bond, putting that in the 1st slot and Sky Ancestry a little further back. ---

Give her a Banding trait instead? 🙃 😆 Good to see logical World event scoring again though 👍 ---

@Kafka@Jeto First: The new glory troop doesn’t make sense. Trait 1+3 both have immune to mana drain & mana burn, totally redundant. Only thing the 3rd trait offers is mana burn steal. Would have made sense to just drop it for something else. Secondly: the Shentang campaign tasks start off with a gold task of doing 22 battles with hero with a Mace weapon… but Shentang doesn’t even have any mace weapon. Uhh… what the heck? This doesn’t make sense thematically at all. People are already commenting on these here & on discord & in guild chat. ---

I get my first “Yasmine’s Chosen” on the 34th fight of the event. (If you planning to finish campaign task on weekly event) ---

As per usual, in the Campaign thread I’ll be suggesting you look for Yasmine’s Chosen in Casual PvP. I’ll also be suggesting a harmless team to put on PvP defence that includes Yasmine’s Chosen. For those who don’t know, putting good teams on PvP Defence gets you _fewer_ resources than putting up teams that people want to fight against and that are easily defeated. If you don’t understand why, it’s probably best not to ask, lol. ---

Would have made sense to just drop it for something else. Sky Ancestry (first trait) has Mana Burn and Mana Drain immunity. The third trait, Mana Shield, provides immunity to Mana Steal (and Burn and Drain). Worthless third trait though. Almost nothing in the game uses Mana Steal. ---

They are going to read the feedback and then change the second trait to Dark Ancestry. 80% of the devs jobs now are just to troll the players as a way to vent about how much 505 Games is killing this game.

> [@awryan](#): > > They are going to read the feedback and then change the second trait to Dark Ancestry. The feedback would first have to reach the game designers, which would require the community manager team to forward it. If I remember correctly that only happens for things posted under Feature Requests that receive at least 50 likes, so I guess Wu Hao will remain in her current sorry state.
