I have so far 4 level 4s, 4 level 3s and 3 level 3s in my group of 11, just reached level 35 today and staring the stage 71 I have only used the gold refreshes earned in elite missions, a bronze refresh gave me a 4s the other day (the white Knight), the other heroes are from mixed of bronze/silver/gold. My only complain is the connectivity issues...
I have noticed that the drop rate goes down *very* dramatically if you use the energy refresh. It seems that using the energy refresh should only be used to try and 3 star levels and grind exp and gold. Conversely, the beginning of a new day when all your levels reset is the best time to farm for items you want. Scrolls are a big problem, as they require a lot of grinding that doesnt give much xp or gold. The type two red scroll is supposed to do skill levels 4-7, but skill level 4 actually requires 5 of the type one blue scrolls.
Yeah, the drop rates are a huge problem... I think gear that is with a white border should have 90% drop rate, green 70%, blue 40% and purple 20%. But I have been farming for a blue sword and have redone the level literally 50-60 times and have only been able to get 1 drop. That is ridiculous! The green scrolls should drop almost every time... you barely get any exp/gold and you have to farm so many levels to get them and when you do, you need to farm gold elsewhere as level 4 skills require 5 scrolls and 22000 gold... I suggested to them that they could take things to more mystical direction: e.g. vampire heroes, werewolf, dragon, etc. That would be cool to have like an undead army or something! Still loving the game tho, although it takes forever to play (waiting for the recharge). That should be tweaked to 3mins instead of 5mins. Waiting 10 hours for the full 120 is way too long. I understand they want you to pay for extended game time and pretty much everything but the drop mechanics and the delays are what are seriously harming this game!
They decreased the drop rates the same day they increased the difficulty, the chances to get a useful item is too low now. by the way, I received today 30+30 tcrystals in reward from Trinity.
I only got 30 tcrystals, I guess my suggestions weren't good enough. Are we supposed to send emails to support every day for 5 days to get 30 x 5 = 150 tcrystals, or just once to get 30 tcrystals once. It's hard to understand their memo.
I've notice that my drop rates improve if I kick the enemies butt. If I can just barely beat a level, the drops are pathetic, but if I wail on them, I get better rates.
It's very difficult for the human brain to correctly predict a random pattern. Casinos make a living on this false feeling of pattern recognition. That being said I don't expect to get the loot if I merely 2 star the level
Just did 8 runs to get green boots, 3-star each time, 0 drops.... this is honestly B.S. for drop rates.
I have gotten drops with 2 stars many times. It may be a factor, not sure. I do think that the number of attempts on a level is related because sometimes you can get wood or metal 5x in a row, and sometimes not get it 5x in a row. If the drop rate was 50%, these occurrences would be 1 in 32, or 1 in 16 for either variety. And its much more common to get a 5x run than that. Mats come in bunches in my experience.
I am still enjoying the game, no matter what It is fun to see your little army grow and beat the obstacles. Plus there is a great deal of excitement to see new 4 * guys... I hope the devs are still following this thread, and consider the following; - Item loss bug: I had a crude staff equipped on one of my heroes, then I got the blue quality blade from Elite Stage 25, when I equipped the blue blade everything was fine.. But then I tried to equip the crude staff to another hero, and the game said: Crude staff is used by Hero X (the one supposed to be using the blue quality blade) I thought it was a small bug and proceeded... But *bam* the second hero equipped the staff and first hero was naked! My blue blade was now nowhere to be seen - Daily Rewards: There should be some tcrys reward daily, to provide some small and slow advancement help... - Energy: Gain is slow, and refresh is costly... Perhaps refresh with gold or energy gain/3 min can be added to improve experience... - Grinding: A little bit of improved drop rates would be nice... - PvP: A balanced PvP system would add a lot... For bug and feedback reward purposes, my in game name is "myzrym" Thanks for your consideration of the above issues and the nice game you've done...
They are difficult and I get piss off some times but I have so far 8 Blue Items (I think I got 2 from completing some quest) and all my army equipped with green ones. I found that 4 stars heroes are also getting more difficult to get, I burned the 60 tcrystals I received looking for my 5th hero and didn't get any.
I have 2 4-star heroes, the cavalry w sword and the mage. the mage is my most powerful char. The cavalry dude is ok. I got only 1 blue item so far from a quest. Nothing else. I'm trying to farm green gear for all my chars. Getting 3-stars at this point is tough. I'm focusing on upping my skills. I have all soldiers at 40+, my 4-star heroes have soldiers at 55+. Most heroes have skills in the lvl 3 or lvl 4, some have lvl 6. I am lvl 29 overall and max hero lvl is 29, min is 25. I'm ok to get 2-stars but not more than that and overall I am having a hard time advancing, which I don't mind. The problem is with the drops. Now I dunno if anyone did this but if you buy the top chest and key. Can you get good gear out of those? If so, then that would explain the shit drop rate. They would want you to pay for gear... Anyways, the game is loads of fun for me. I don't mind the difficulty but the timer is too long, even a 4 min timer is better than 5 mins. Of course the ideal would be 3 mins and double drop rates. Honestly, I think what we are asking for is a game that can be completed 3-star without ever paying. Something Triniti isn't in the business of doing... sadly. At least we could have a double drop rate weekend or a sale or something... but currently I think soon I will be at a paywall...
I have one, is equivalent to an archer, I mean his troops are archers, I think they are 4 star only. My other 4 star heroes are a barbarian, a mounted archer and a White Knight. The more difficult for me to find are cavalry warriors.
I don't know about you guys but the drop rates have been even lower (it seems) as of the last day or 2...
been playing for a week or so... I have used every blue crystal attained so far doing 5 crystal "refreshes" in order to get 4 star heroes. I have 4 of them so far. I think I've used over 150 so far just trying to get my 5th, no luck. All crystals have been gained in game, no money spent. With the chalice's so high priced, drop rate so low, and crap rate of 4 stars showing up, I will NOT be spending ANY money on this game. Energy gain rate also needs to be sped up by 2 or more. Drop rate on items/gear has been unrewarding. Like another poster has said, some mornings I've received 5 green scrolls back to back and later in the day I've went 0 for 10. I have wondered if I have used up my "allotment" of items for that 24 hour period. What I find strange is, I'm at a point in the game where I'm "hooked" (middle of the game), this is what they are after right? This is the point where people are most tempted to spent money BUT it is exactly this point where gamers see the flawed rates and are turned off when thinking about spending money. example... 1. hey neat looking game, I think I'll give it a go... 2. loving the start, I'm sure there is a "paywall" coming up lets see... 3. hit the "paywall", really like the game. is it worth and/or could I finish the game with $10 to $20 investment? knowing the mechanics, NOPE 4. play a bit more without investing... getting bored, about to move on.
