Will the achievement “I Believe in a Higher Power” be reworked?

No crystal crafting in the soulforge.

Was it promised?

I agree that shiny troops are obnoxious and need a better solution, but they are not pay to win. Playing pvp for gold marks can purchase up to 3 shiny keys a day (90 keys a month) from the PvP shop.

Shiny keys in pvp shop for gold marks.

The math was all correct. All my 20/30 kingdoms jumped to 49 or 50. Once I collected all the kingdom tasks, they jumped to 55 to 57. With extra crystals, got a chunk from 60 to 63. My guild leader has all of his magic kingdoms to 68 already. The higher level kingdoms add more global population than the lower level, so I found it better to ignore the 2 kingdoms that were under level 50. I don’t know if this balances out in the future, but my guild leader told me his Mydnight was at level 32 while having level 68 kingdoms.

Astral spire doesn’t affect pvp anymore. Please fix. Some of our players spend hundreds of dollars to upgrade them to do pvp faster

What you are saying is not correct. We did not get compensated for the prior spent books value in the new system. All they did was map 50 to 50. When you say it jumped from 50 to 55/57 it was the xp gained from the troops/pets already maxed. It was not from the value of the 30 books. Mine only went to 52 because I do not have as much sunk into maxing every troop, pet, elite level, etc. They people sitting on books got a huge benefit the people who do not have a book stash. For the people who spent the 30 books that took years to accumulate, they got the raw end of this conversion. It was worse that this was not announced like a year in advance to prevent people from wasting a precious resource. Your guild leader example is a .05% of players. It is not relevant.

Correct not from books but from troops. So while my kingdoms were maxed and so the update allowed my kingdoms to jump to 55 to 58. There are players who were behind me hoarding their books and they now jumped to 68 while my max was 64, due to lack of books. One player, who is level 3800 has reported having his kingdom jump to 81.

Yea, found it. I should’ve realized before posting that it would be just another case of your discrimination against windowed-mode players (and custom windows in particular) as you obviously had to move them to location that would be inevitably cut off when not in full fullscreen mode. Thank you immensely for marvelous care!

Old kingdom home screen was completely fine and when I saw the new screenshot in the opening post I thought it might be a mess
and I was not mistaken.


It’s a perfect example in bling-bling-bling visuals over functionality (as have been almost all user interface changes that you have implemened)
what is this stupid design philosophy that seems so prevalent everywhere these days?

Entendí mal la actualización!? Pero Pensaba que cuando recogían tributo cada hora también otorgaban polvos brillantes.

En la informaciĂłn del Reino aparece un tanto %.

My exact point. You should be much more advanced than the hoarder. Why do they get to leapfrog the people how actually spent the books for 20/30 kingdoms.

Which happens to be one par with one would expect in this situation, what you gain from your kingdoms now (tributes and bonuses) is just about the same as before. Yes, you could have saved up your books over the past years and possibly be in a better position now. No, you won’t be able to undo your past decisions, or get compensated for them.

That’s a valid question. I imagine the didn’t find a fair exchange ratio that works in all situations. Under the old system the value of books and deeds got exponentially worse the higher your kingdom level, under the new system it’s constant (except for early levels). Apparently they decided to make sure everybody got at least equivalent value (with some possibly getting a lot more), rather than the other way around.

And which wiseguy thought that this was a good idea?
Before you had both exit buttons on the same side - exit explore, exit kingdom right in the same general area - whereas now one has to move all over the screen
brilliant, just brilliant and perfectly intuitive design! Keep up all your marvelous work and, guess what, I’ll throw you even better idea and won’t even ask reward for it - implement exit button location that is randomized each time you open the respective window. That would be such a bestseller!

No, we’re disagreeing with it. Not the same.

If for 5 years you never fought any battles, that’s gold and souls missed every hour of every day for 5 years.
I’ll do rough estimates. 100 battles an hour, 1000 gold per battle, 10 hours a day.
5 years, that’s 1,000,000 gold x 365 x 5 = 1,825,000,000
That’s nearly 2 thousand million gold. That’s resources got for not battling vs battling.
So people that didn’t play the game should have got a million times the conversion for books, right?
Oh, no, wait. That makes no sense at all.
Because people not playing the game don’t magically deserve to get extra for nothing.

I don’t think you are, though.

Sorry, we’ve been told several times there isn’t going to be crystal crafting. Dunno about future update, but for now, not an option.

This is indeed a really strange design choice. Don’t get me wrong, the kingdom maps look great, but that’s a lot of wasted real estate and requires extra button presses to see useful information.

Shake hands and move on, please. Not gonna see this thread getting locked.

Yes please get rid of this screen after we complete the kingdom quest. Should be the upgrade or task screen instead.
