Maybe try with stronger creatures? I don't think I beat 37 with only smalls.

Wow.  What can I say?  

Well....

The new tower is quite possibly the worst idea in gaming since...well since anything I've ever seen.

What a colossal waste of time trying to force people into using smalls.  Not to mention that I now need 51 teams to do 51 tower levels.  

Awful awful awful.

Awful.

This will be the only week I bother looking at my score ever again and I used to pride myself on being one of the best at this.  

I will finish the tower of course, rewards are too good not to but I will do level 1-49 with one team from now on to save time and sanity.

The survival bonus does not always make sense to me. Can someone explain how it is calculated?

It's buggy IMO, therefore can seem hard to understand.

Survival bonus is the percent amount of health left on your creatures. SB can in the current version vary from 0% to 100%. You get 100% if all your creatures are in full health, 20% for each creature. However if creature died in combat you get 0% for it - even if it has been resurrected later. In this manner you can get SB of 0% if every of your creatures died at least once in combat.

That makes sense. It looked like resurrected creatures gave 0%, but then I got 100% even when using resurrection, and on other levels below 40% even if none died and had almost full health.

Well I don't know about this, personally I find it more enjoyable to use teams of small and getting to score higher instead of just swiping all floors with PvP team, and it doesn't take much longer anyway. What I find tedious is NEEDING to redo it every week, but on the other hand I find it hard to complain about something awarding you a greater essence -which is worth 50$ in real money shop and a lot of dedication to gain through PvP- just by spending a couple of hours once a week climbing it. I certainly wouldn't mind a possibility to allow to beat rewards floors directly once passed for 0 score though, as after all the real performance is to be able to beat said level in the first place. True, needing to do all floors costs more energy but once you are able to beat all levels or at least until 49 who cares about that.

I feel I will never repeat it enough, but daily bonuses were really making the tower more fun to spend time in, especially the "drop rate increased" temporary floors.

Tower tower. To be honest I have decided that I would not try to rank by using smaller creatures or even colour counters because it's just impossible.

To remain constructive I really think this bonus isn't adding anything to the tower. As I appreciated somehow the change of the old tower to the new one, where you had to rank through scores, that score depended mostly on using the right colours to maximize it. Now not only colours matter but also creatures' level, the lower they are the higher the score, which is in my opinion a waste of energy for the player.

I understand the policy of the game that wanted to give a chance to the player that take care of their smaller creatures, as well as to weaker players who don't have as many full proof epics and legends as 'veterans'. But in my opinion, tower should be reviewed. Maybe putting more variety in it, changing its global system, I don't know can't help you on that one. All what I know is that climbing the tower tonget idols, diamonds and the great essence is all I can do, while ranking in 1 % is not worth enough the effort, particularly when you keep getting hit in dungeons which is more interesting or when you spend your energy on event quests.

Keep up CQ.

How many small or middle creatures would you actively use without the new version of the tower?

Now, trying to get 5 small creatures fully awakened for every colour is a goal to achieve to reach great score.

And this way, you explore "secrets" of small creatures you would not have been aware of without this new tower version. Example: using swan in level 51..

For me is too much of a headache to struggle changing team for every level right colors and small size is taking too much damn time. Is not even worth the struggle for just two extra diamond idols.

I just rush with the same team from up till floor 50, then change my team once for floor 51 and that's it.

The weakest ever solution to Tower's problems.

They could leave last period's scores on non-boss floors at least.
Now the tower is even less appealing and more boring than before.

They diminished the value of the only one game mode that could compete (more or less - less, actually) with the Dungeon (which is kinda broken too).
