Ok will do that asap, Matdav.

Yes I have seen it too, TheLion, I already let Baraty know that, he will fix that by tomorrow.

The game clock is an old problem from our system admin. I am pretty angry about it to that he does not fix this. Will talk to him to find a working solution asap. The problem is, that the clock can't be synchronized constantly because it would cause many problems with all the time-based actions, you would lose hunt SE etc. But will try to find a solution. Sorry for that.

Trackur, yes, sometimes I'm also pissed off with that Our programmer prefers security, so the cookies always expire when you close the browser. That is good to protect you if you are in an internet cafe, but for a home computer we could allow a permanent cookie. I will consult Baraty about that. Btw password remember of the browsers work, I just type in the first letter of my username, and my browser pops up the username and remembers the password. So I have to press only one letter.

Sbart: there are armors, shields, helms, boots, focus crystals and relics and even a potion. You have all of that and still have a surplus of soul-diamonds? Sure, we can implement some potions then, I will put it to the planned things list (although its very very long atm but we try to work through them quickly)

Someone asked about how much SE can be stolen in a duel, so I will write a detailed description.

Base SE stolen is 15-20% (random) of the defeated doomlord's unprotected SE. (unprotected = not protected by transcendal projection).

Modifiers which affect this amount:

Decreases:
Premium: x 0.8
Several others attacked in past 3 hrs: x 0.2...0.8
Loser is lower level: multiplier depending on absolute lvl and lvl difference
Loser diamond: x 0.7
Some items and clan buildings also decrease SE lost.
There is also a special multiplier which takes effect if the target lost too much SE compared to what he collected in his entire career (called the "slave modifier", to prevent people just breeding droid characters for farming).

Increases:
Winner diamond: x 1.3
Loser 100% infected: x1.5
Attacker 0% infected: multiplier depending on loser's infection.
Loser cursed by attacker: x 1.2
Winner executed: execution skill bonus
Also pet equipment and some items give a multiplier.

Regardless of multipliers, there is a limit to the amount of SE can be stolen.
Base cap is 30%, if the winner is diamond, 36%. This can be modified by several factors, loser is diamond (x0., loser is premium (x0..
Creative affinity adds beyond this cap.
Please note that thing described here are subject to change.

100 and 150.

Ok, the situation is: the base value for +1 bonus is not 50, it is 40. In the old times it was 50 but with the young servers it was changed so it was easier to reach.

Ok I will check with the programmer on Monday to see how it works.

Yes this is true, but if we make duel too powerful for EH players then there will be some who will just duel. I have seen this on other server. The way to go is to make hunt more powerful for EH players, and as I mentioned, we are working on it (actually, the AA ability connected to this is coming to you eary on next week.)

Thanks

The base number you need for +1 is 50, for +2, 100, for +3, 150. This number can be higher, if your team has a bonus chance due to having less members than others, but I don't think it can go lower. The reason why you need only 40 for +1 is prolly that you already collected 10 pieces.

Ok, we corrected that.

Thanks, we can correct it now.

I agree with you Sbart, and that's why we are still working on balancing out things to make it fair for everyone. Adding to dimension door rewards besides the hunt SE might be a good idea, we will consider that too.

Temple of Doom is one of the coming projects. This will be a new feature, available already from level 1. In the temple of doom, you will get mini-quests. (A beginner player gets 4x4, a higher level gets 5x5, even higher, 6x6). You can complete the quests in any order, even parallel. As soon as you complete all quests in a row or column of the temple, you get a small reward (like at the wheel of fortune). Complete all rows and columns in the allocated time, and you get the great big temple reward as well. Quests will be randomly choosen for each player. Players will have the option to skip up to 2 quests of their choice.

Valkyre: could you please make a screenshot and send it to info doomlord net? Thank you!

Sbart: I am very sorry, but we can't do that but I hope it's not that big deal, it worked the same way for everyone, so no one got advantage or disadvantage over the others, it's like the helms got into the game 1 day later.

Baraty said he corrected it too, thx for the notice.

About the Experience ability, EH and DD.
As long as there are two separate ways to follow in a game (like EH and DD) there will be always argument which is more powerful, and with every new thing people will examine if one side gained advantage. Actually, this is quite a complex thing.
- Collecting shards at maximum efficiency needs 2 AA abilities, for a total of 30 AA points. For DD players it's quite difficult to collect this amount. But, on the other side, going for one duel is easier for them than for an EH player to capture a creature.
- About Experience as a requirement. This have effect on an EH player when he attacks a much lower level player. But in terms of SE/XP, please note that even with experience, you will get a very good SE/XP yield, much better than DD.
- Please also note that some new AA abilities are coming up. One of them will increase the SE you get for hunts - but only for EH players!!! Also some quests in the coming up Temple of Doom will balance out things as well. So I wouldn't say we hate EH, quite the opposite, we try to make the two sides equally powerful.

In more details:
currently, an EH player who only duels can become much more powerful than a DD player. But, the goal of the game is that you both hunt and duel. Experience limits the anomaly of getting better reward for super-weak opponents, while we make hunting more appealing for EH players.

Dexi: the error message you missed was:
"you can't attack a Crystal Horde member"
It seems you set that you do not want to attack and be attacked by Crystal Horde members under duel settings, and still, you tried to attack one somehow.

Sorry for the initial problems, looks like we have been able to correct them, shard collection must work now as intended, I personally tested everything. If there is still something missing, please let us know.

Piko: of course there are helms which can be purchased without ancient stones.

Valkyre you still have problem seeing the helm AA ability's description? Did you refresh the page?

You get HS only for the first action of a type. So you get HS for the first duel on a given day, but not for the second. If the text said otherwise, it is a text display bug indeed Baraty will correct this by tomorrow.

Experience: You need to be experienced to be able to collect shards...

We increased the maximum level of some AA abilities. These are:
Skin evolution, Aura evolution, Pain resistance (+10)
Long-term memory (+1)
Focused strength (+2)
Soul protection (+10)
Dream thief (+3)
Uncontrolled madness (+3)
Also removed from the Experience ability the limitation referring to war.

Some new abilities will follow soon.

We patched to the game two large additions:
- Wheel of Fortune. Under soul-huckster, click on the wheel of fortune button. You can turn it once a day for free, and 2 extra times for ancient stones. Available from level 1!
- Helms. From level 80, you can buy the AA ability "collect helm shards". Each day, when you win in duel, in challenge, complete an adventure, hunt, or capture a creature, you get helm shards which you can use to purchase helms and helm focus crystals at the soul huckster.

We have ninja'd the helms into the game today, enjoy!

Babe, could you be more specific, please? So you say wheel not working for you? What browser are you using? Do you get any error message, or what happens when you click on the wheel under soul-huckster?
