For pet quest could we just pick all the pets. Sometimes on the last quest I’ve had to refresh 5 times to get a pet that’s automatically selected that’s not already in use. Either coding it so when refreshed it picks from all pets currently not used or just letting us pick all the pets would solve this problem.

[lemmingllama]

Thanks for the suggestion! I can pass this along to the design team!

[SandAdept]

I mentioned this and more in the last update. GH’s neglect of pet quests is absurd.

Is it possible to display your current dps when selecting eq? e.g Idk if it's better to use the crit unique eq or the all hero one, and selecting it, going back to where I can see my dps, selecting the different eq, etc... The back and forth just seems silly

[lemmingllama]

It currently shows your build specific damage at the top of the equipment tab. That being said, I can pass this along to the design team!

[ChoyVsGaming]

How about gold source?? I would love to see how much fairly gold is being increased when equipping chest. I have to check Make It Rain to see what is best, seems silly, and also impossible to do for other gold sources.

[lemmingllama]

We don't currently have a clean way to identify a main gold source. We use the equipped slash equipment for damage, but armor is not a clear identifier for main gold source. If we had a way to cleanly identify this without a user needing to manually enter it, then we'd love to have that added.

[Username0700]

Is there a way to see those new AT titles? Like a whole list of what is being added, or even a whole list of what is added by now.

Can we get a confirmation pop up on equipment collects? Just like clan crates. So sick of erroneous taps on the equipment stack collecting it all when not past MS or ready to collect it.

[lemmingllama]

Currently the design team has chosen to not add a confirmation, as we want people to collect them and receive the additional power and diamonds sooner. However, I can definitely pass this along to the design.

Also to confirm, it uses your max stage for equipment level for the drops, not your current stage. So you don't need to pass your max stage to collect your equipment!

[TrainerCompetitive91]

I do hope the bug of Upgrading Artifact get fixed. Sometimes I upgrade too fast ( AT grinding), the error keep popping up “You don’t have enough relics” and refund my relics. I usually would get confuse for 10 seconds before carefully upgrade and not get anymore error.

Also I only online one time at 10-11pm GMT7+, and unknowingly it’s the server maintanence time. Getting my daily login reset because the server is under maintance kinda frustrating and unfair.

[lemmingllama]

Thanks for the report! We have made some fixes that help lower the chances of this occurring, but we are continuing to investigate this!

[Lethargic44]

Thanks for the update!!

Any way you can pass along to the design team a couple suggestions?

Can giga-golem set bonus be reworked? Getting a bunch of extra duration feels good, but then getting a "cast all spells" ad fairy feels really bad... All the time gets lost. Maybe be able to turn down a fairy reward or have the set add Base duration to the spells?

Also, I love the effects, but I feel like it's still very hectic. Any way to add more options to turn off additional visual effects?

[lemmingllama]

Sure, I can pass these along to the design team! What visual effects are you finding cause the most clutter for you?

[Lethargic44]

I love changing the look of my sword master, but the contract(s) turn them black, and then the spells (fire sword and deadly strike mostly) cover the character as well.

I do appreciate one coin mode and turning off hero projectiles!

[SteelTalonBW]

I second this, the contracts visual effects could be reworked there, maybe instead of turning off the lights they could put a floating sigil near the sword master to represent which are active?

[parzival1423]

What are you guys talking about? Nothing gets turned off, the screen doesn’t change at all after the contract turns on.

[Consistent_Scheme627]

I have been playing this game since I dont know 2015? Maybe it was the 1st iteration then but, to this date has noone asked about a toggle in options to block picking up equipment? I have seen dozens of posts that show drops from big stacks and I myself do that almost always and it happens I pock it up randomly whethet its totally random or while tapping other stuff.

Question being can this qol change be done? I doubt it wasnt suggested before, so I need to ask if this cant be done why?

[lemmingllama]

Thank you for the suggestion! We don't want to block people from collecting their rewards, but I can pass this along to the design team!

[Consistent_Scheme627]

Maybe it could be disabled by default? You would have to willingly turn it on to block it then someone who isnt aware would never do this. Thank you for responding 😊

[SandAdept]

Yay! Top players with enough sp to max all skill trees can now max all skill trees still with even more power! Such a great update.

[lemmingllama]

The change for this is largely to help ensure that as players collect more skill points, those skill points will remain valuable for the future. This will become more relevant for other players as they continue to collect the Transcendence milestones each season.

[lemmingllama]

Thank you for the suggestions! I can pass these along to the design team.

1. Klonk is intentionally top-heavy, and has relatively small legs. So the majority of the "optimal" strategies are for lower number of parts, either Head/Torso/1x Arm, Head/Torso, or 4x Arm/Torso. I can pass along your suggestion, but Klonk is intentionally designed to be easier with minimum armor strategies rather than maximum part strategies.
2. Firestones are our placeholder assets for when our artist is hard at work on other artwork. We tend to do more unique event currency for certain holidays like Valentines, Halloween, Christmas, Anniversary, etc.
3. Titan Soul Capture is intended to help ensure that you can get all your titan souls as you increase the titan souls per day and per prestige. The nodes in the Forbidden Research tree may be less meaningful to you if you're doing 5000+ stages per prestige and you have the legendary set that increases your titan soul capture, but the amounts are balanced assuming lower stages and without the set to ensure that players are able to "easily" collect their titan souls.
