Thank you for the quick response! Knowing that toons keep their level ups even when not leading will definitely help a lot. Gonna go work on getting them all to level 1 ASAP! I have watched many Castle 1 runs but nothing seems to help no matter how well I emulate the videos, I definitely think leveling my toons will get me there!
Beat Depths 1 as well. Used the bomb dude and was working on leveling him. I did use all the buffs which threw me off a little since I wasn't used to the speed. So I had to retry once or twice. Leveling with coins right now is something I'm putting off limits until I max out all of the special stuff. I think that will be worth more than level 2'ing everyone.
I like the game but I will say that the grind is epic. To level your guys up past one star takes forever. You earn money so incredibly slowly and the difficulty ramps up so much that it's impossible to get further without leveling up.
Just unlocked the Arcane... BEAST. So, I've got all my heroes up to the Arcane at Level 1, and all the Power-ups maxed out. What is a good way to progress from here? Grind a hero or three up to Level 2? TIA! DBC
DBC, You're coming up on Depths I, which is really tough. I'd consider trying to get a couple of guys to level 2, like Gizmo and Arcane. The increased range helps a lot. Or you could pump some armor on some guys for survival purposes.
Cool! Thanks! Oh, so the Depths that everyone has been talking about... Gulp. I think I'm going to enjoy leveling Arcane for a bit, switch to Gizmo (who I also enjoy quite a bit incidentally), and I guess I'll see the Depths soon enough... DBC
A quick note on the arena leaderboards for anyone that is concerned. Currently we are pretty sure how people are manipulated the leaderboards and it will be fixed in the first update. For now anyone that is manipulating their score is currently being removed and baned from participating in arena events. Also we are monitoring the event right up until the end so that the rewards are assigned correctly.
Nimbletim, anyway to fix the leaderboards as well? Lots of hackers in there. .... I now have 11 characters available. The second round of levels is difficult simply from the mass of enemies that appear. I don't think it's possible to get much further without eons of grinding or IAP. I don't purchase IAP at all, I only buy whole games. But the wall is approaching. I switched to te second TA guild. I seem to be ranked better there so a much better chance at getting decent coin. DBC, try leveling characters to 2 star. You have all the powers upgraded so all your gems can go to that as well which you'll need as it would take 5000 kills to upgrade otherwise. Start with the bomb dude (gizmo I think). He's who I've used to ge past depths 1 and Forrest 2.
Unfortunately devs have very little control over Game Center leaderboards. So there is very little we can do about that. The fixes should help a little but I can't guarantee we can do a lot about those.
Depending on how highly you and your guild place, you get tokens as rewards (people were getting 50 tokens for placing in the top guild)
Nimble Tim, can you comment on whether or not this will ever support iCloud like Pocket Planes? I've gotten really far on my iPad already and would love to continue on my phone...
I would really like to support this game. But consumable iap are a plague , and the red gem unlock is way too pricey...
Just an FYI...I ran a search on the in-game video sharing system. When enough users/apps adopt it, the company that makes it will be inserting advertisements. I'de rather not have trojan horses lurking in my apps, but...such is the state of mobile apps.
ICloud support in Pocket Planes was an interesting experience. Because of that we don't have plans to support it in Nimble Quest right now. However I will not say it is off the table permanently.
