Is the smelter not processing when you are offline (or at a much slower pace)?

Trying to recall, but I think you need a fair number of True Disciples to convert to Ambitious, then the additional screen will appear.

I believe the mini games are locked for now. There are only 2, Meowruto & Jimmy Feline. Jimmy Feline is also a stand alone game on Kong. The ability to turn ore into bars has not been released yet.

So, if I start a new raid, I basically lose all my gold producing buildings and my heroes are reset to level 1, and I spend a few weeks getting them back to where they were. In exchange I get some stars. Am I missing something, or is this a pretty bad deal?

Its a bit annoying that your ability timer continues to run down between rounds, but you don't accrue time towards the next time you can use it. Means abilities such as additional damage or armor are really only useful for 2-3 seconds.

They will drop occasionally from containers. I've not found them to be any better or worse than others.

Of what value is the extra energy from the usb artifact?

@salened - you're welcome. But it would be nice if somewhere there was something that showed this or the benefit of an upgraded piece of equipment before you spend the ammo finding out its not as good as something you already have.

Renegade does damage with a chance to stun for 3 seconds

I've also noticed that when you sell items, it only shows the 'original' values and not the upgraded if you've enhanced them. So if you have 2 identical items and one of them is upgraded, you run the risk of selling the wrong one.

@EarlofMouse - a partial solution would be to allow the tokens to be carried forward to future events. That way people can save up for the best items. I agree, it wasn't going to be possible for most players to get to that 550 points in the last event.

Any idea if the spooky treats have any use/value other than showing the point progress?

Mutagens are still dropping, so its a run of bad luck.

Didn't post well - level 10 - 8 tries, level 11 - 5 tries, level 12 & 13 - 1 try, 14 - 2, 15, 16, 17 - 3, 18 - 1, 19 - 2, 20 -1. Other than level 10 & 11 it was a reasonable number of attempts.

For grins, here's a table of what it took to upgrade a Mutant shotgun Common M4: L cost odds tries Total Cost 10 1010 Low F F F F F F F S 8080 11 1150 Low F F F F S 5750 12 1290 Low S 1290 13 1430 Low S 1430 14 1570 Low F S 3140 15 1710 Low F F S 5130 16 1860 Low F F S 5580 17 2010 Low F F S 6030 18 2160 Low S 2160 19 2310 Low F S 4620 20 2460 Low S 2460

Event is probably going to be similar to their other game where it is up for about 3 days, then a cooling off period of a few days.

Also has anyone experienced a lack of mutagen drops since the update?

@earlofmouse - I think you are correct. Tracked the last 40 that I opened, all either 4 or 5. Personally I think there is also an issue with the failure upgrade rate, repeatedly I will get 4-5 fails in a row but never more than 2 successes (at the 50% level).

@Trunk - just found out that upgrading the hero does next to nothing. Upgraded Orderly, health went from 310 to 370 and I'm guessing its accuracy went from 19 to 22. Nothing else changed. And if you already have a hero at level 10, you can't get them any higher (not that I saw any stat change when they advanced in levels).

@Vauzhao - correct, its just the speed of getting to 50. Not worth the upgrading in my opinion.
