Universal Epic Island - (by Backflip Studios)

So it looks like pets will randomly spawn based in chance rather then location, rather then a few exceptions like the saber tooth and enchanted armor I found this little guy today in a level 2 water dungeon

 

Pet spawn is random I guarantee that. (In exception with the Halloween Pets)
Currently taming my Crusher (4 Days Pet) from Evil Tree Dungeon.

 

Post the results of your open ticket. My friends and I also did not receive our bonus for the faction war.

 

Perhaps it's just only showing one buff at a time? Even though you have more than one active?

 

I'm finally in the lich's lair, working on my first kill.

I have an earth spider fist, and will be pirchasing the cold spooky mask soon. I'll be working on forging those into epics over the next few days. I also have both halloween pets. What I'm wondering is if there's any real reason to even worry about killing the lich king and leveling up his lair. I mean, I don't need him to get the items/pets, ther are no achievements for killing him, and all of the progress to his dungeon will be gone once the event is over and the shrieking island disappears. Killing him once just for the sake of doing the event boss is a given, but is there any benefit to continuing in the shreiking island beyond that? Not that I'm saying there needs to be. I'm just curious, because killing him more times will take a lot of hours that I could be putting into the wind zone and sorcerer tower instead.

 

Hey everyone, I have about 25 gift chests so far. But add me: GC peeholethethird

 

The 4-day-tame elemental pet is actually an exception in that it can spawn anywhere, but the others only spawn in a particular dungeon (Which dungeon they spawn in is hinted at in their description), so if you need a particular pet going all "Where in the game is [pet X]?" may well point you in the right direction.

 

This thread has been a great help, thanks everyone! Add me on GC: Lootshare.

Today I saw the sparkleface, its 30,000 gems since $99 get you 18,500 meaning that mask costs $200. That is illogical to me at least, can someone enlighten me or am I missing something?

 

Sparkleface is actually a very easy craft. Just buy the spooky mask for coins in the shop and forge it with a wind item. 2-element epic with 3 stats? Sweet.

I wonder if there's a payoff at the end of the lich dungeon. Get it to level x, gain an event-only epic. Sounds possible.

 

If its that easy why so expensive in gems.

 

Because it's powerful and event-only? Also, some people don't know about crafting or have money to burn. It's not our call on how to price items.

Look at it this way, you're getting an item worth 30k gems by spending a bit of gold and crafting it with a wind element item. You have the option to buy it immediately with gems, but you don't have to. It's good value.

 

They don't expect anyone to actually drop the cash and purchase the mask. It's an even item and only available for a limited time, so they put a ridiculous gem price on it make crafting the item feel that much more rewarding.

I'm sure they would love for some people to drop that kind of cash on the game, but I'm confident that they don't actually expect it to happen.

 

I'm a new player. How do you know what elements an item has? Thanks

 

If you look for example on an item in your treasury, you and see small colored stripes in the top left corner on and item. They are the elements, different colors are different elements.

 

When you look at the item's icon, you will see a little colored banner(s) at the top, indicating which element(s) the item has (if it has any). If you tap on the item twice, it will bring up a closer view of the item and it stats. In this closer view, the colored banners will show up with little pictures of their respective elements on them.

You can also tell by looking at the item's stats. An item that gives hero fame is plant, for example. Coin bonus is earth, dungeon progress is wind, arena strength is fire, honor is lightning, rare chance is water, and titan damage is cold.

 

Anyone have an update on not receiving the faction war bonus from last week? I'm still waiting for my ticket to get responded to.

Thanks Didrik and Wizard Mike. Totally makes sense. I thought all items were associated with an element. I only have a couple of items in my treasury associated with an element but then again I'm new at this so I guess that's to be expected. I'm thinking that I'll stick with fighting Titans to try to get more.

 

I'm sitt waiting for one. Has anyone sent a support email to Backflip?

 

I sent an email yesterday at 6am. Haven't received anything other than the automated response when I sent it. Would really love to have 100% Dungeon Progress about right now....
