So we will have simultaneously 3 active dungeons and the attacker will randomly fight one of them. I like the idea, nice one!

But please keep in mind that currently the top ranked players in each group are using the walrus + Templar combo and one creature only in wave 1.
To defeat this set up I personally need a customized team, that is good only against this kind of dungeon. After the update, if mixing up a dungeon like this between other two 5 waves dungeons(19/19 filed up), will be even more problematic.

It should not be allowed to have empty slots at least in the first wave.

@Bragjul

Actually, the strongest defenses I've encountered are full dungeons. Effective strong dungeons against my party exist but they indeed are quite rare.

However, yes, stun mechanic is being abused and exploited to the max by maybe half of top ranked players. Bear in mind though these are extremely RNG dependent, most of times will fail unless all 4 dots triggering first turn (if you have strong enough party), these dudes still barely get around 40% defense rate.

Hopefully new update does some good, I'm quite excited.

Looking forward to more details! By the way, kudos for making the app more stable. I used to have one crashes a day, but over the last couple of weeks I can't remember having a single one. Keep up the good work

Was there talk about removing the preview dungeon option? Like maybe in future updates if this one doesn't work? I think it will improve defense without the preview option

Yes I was hoping the same, the preview allows you to counter any defense... it should be limited somehow.

And I'm a bit disappointed that there will be only 3 waves defenses, I was hoping to keep the 5 waves defenses but with an update about keeping the relevance for the following waves after the first one.(like mana leak)

It's nice to hear that economy management will be introduced with Kingdoms. Hopefully this will reduce the need to grind certain quests on a regular basis, as opposed to the opposite.

Dungeon 2.0 sounds good. Removing 5 wave means each fight will be faster, and full dungeons giving bonuses to all waves will discourage empty wave 1. On the flip-side, filling out and testing 5 dungeons might become very time consuming. Will you be including more stats in the log? Now we only see what creatures died, but it would be nice to know at least on what wave they die. Especially when you potentially have 5 dungeons to optimise, more detailed statistics will be very valuable and give more optimised defences over time.

And another request: Please add a "collect all" button/function for quests. Even one of the official CQ videos shows that it is better not to pick up any loot until the end of the quest in case of gold or xp bonuses. This quickly becomes tiresome if you play a quest several times in a row.

Have any questions about Kingdom, Dungeon Challenge 2.0, or any of the above information? Please ask us on our social channels so we can address them in the Creature Clips videos or the patch notes.



A few clarifying questions:

- What does "duplicate" with regards to combo dot fusion mean? Is it only same type, as with awakening? Or does this mean same amount of stars, level or awakening as well?

- Will fusing always carry over the highest amount of dots, or is it average rounded up? For instance, if you fuse a 2 with a 4 dot, do you get a 3 or 4 dot as a result?

- New kinds of summon events for small and medium, will that be for ticket summons, or still diamond summon with the same cost as it is now?

Not sure if this will be something we're going to take a look at immediately, as there are many other pressing items to iron out, but we've definitely heard this from your guys more than once. It's something we're willing to look at in the future.

-Duplicate refers to the same Creature. Phoenix can only be merged with other Phoenixes, Ogres can only be merged with other Ogres. It works exactly the same as Awakening a Creature, except instead of gaining an Awakening Ability, you gain a Combo Dot. Also, the Creature doesn't need to be at max stars to gain extra combo dots (unlike Awakenings).

-It will always carry over the highest amount. If you fuse a 4-dot to a 3-dot, the 3-dot turns into a 4-dot. If you fuse a 4-dot with a 1-dot, the 1-dot still becomes a 4-dot.

-For now it will be with Tickets, but we are looking to expanding past that in the future, as we have the ability to.

It's funny, I remember before the preview was added the talk was "we need a preview to make it fair"

My thoughts exactly. It will be a good selling point for old Heroes players.

Hmmm... Creatures of Might and Magic!

Me like those resources... mercury, sulfur, wood, ore, gems...

Looking forward to it and hopefuly there will be less grind (aka tower) and more fun

Oh haha I wasn't around back when there was no preview. Also darn you took me out of top 25 last challenge! Nice last hit

To keep things a little transparent, everything for 1.4 has been submitted and approved! We're now setting things up to go live hopefully next week, unless something happens. Fingers crossed!
