Troops that won’t exist until portals open in a few days. It’s content that “released” but no one is allowed to use yet. Sounds like you caught the bad end of “3.3 wasn’t ready but the release date was sacred”. ---

Hey JARON, If you restart the game, you should be given an alternate task. Also, Tower troops are the new troop type for the upcoming Invasion event. ---

that’s about right - tasks that wont reset that u cant complete. disappearing gnomes that when reappear drop nothing - fancy animations that give nothing, misleading events and a spate of mystery troop deaths in pvp followed up with goblin cycling extremis. Cant wait to see the prices of the new orb bundles because the producers sure don’t want the existing players.
