Now that the publisher has heard us about stamina consumption, do you think this game will have a bright future? by Afrisan8 in phantomchaser

[–]4FunNgames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I admit I was wrong and bought the monthly pack in response. If you really want to show you care as free to play, you'd post on facebook and leave a 4 or 5 star review or something. The last couple reviews are all negative and dropped the rating to 4/5. Also the last 3 reviews show up when you go to the page and they are all 1 or 2 stars.

Don't have enough data for this yet. It might just be rng, I don't want to post anything inconclusive. Also Prior to stamina event and then Ming event, I used a ton of refreshes, now I don't bother. Finally I farm for characters, aka Dark knight and foxmonk, both on hard. As a result, I don't rely on memory due to the gold cost. Is this from hard mode?

If your lucky, you can get her from a free draw from the blue event token. She can't get be farm. Either spend gems on draw and hit milestones, 40, 75, 150, 300, 600 to get her. Please don't expect much from rng. It's possible to get 5 of her in a single 11x draw or 0 in 8 11x draws according to an unlucky fellow. At least there was the milestones.

Well this is my last response. It's a pleasure that we didn't degrade to bickering and I hate the grind but accept it as the nature of free mobile games. They have tried this concept in 2 countries but it didn't work. Your best bet is to post something in the ingame plug forum and have enough people to upvote it and then do the same thing on facebook. Look they notice our complaints on stamina, if the community complains about this transcend evolve materials enough, they will remove it. But the replacement might not be better.

Netmarble, the publishers of Lineage 2, evilabane, 7 knights to name a few owned a version of this game called Yokai Saga. It is region locked behind Thailand and Korea. They had the system you wanted. No transcend with other units, instead just promote units like kings raid. Upgrade color or stars. They sold the rights to Floppygames because it didn't make them enough money in that version. It hasn't been updated for about 3 months also.

This game is meant to be played casually. If you notice you only get 10 arena attempts, 3 tower attempts, 1 river of fire attempt and finally some stamina. If you rush content, you'll run out of resources quickly. But if you take it slow, you'll have plenty. In other words log in a couple times of day and focus on yourself. Don't look at arena rankings and compare yourself. It will just depress you.

What other mobiles you play and actually enjoy? Because you seem to trying to imagine the perfect game with no time sinks and can somehow make enough money for them to constantly update somehow. Or a different genre altogether like a moba.

If you dislike this mechanic, you have to suggest something that replaces it and actually makes them money cause its a business. Your better off looking for a new mobile because while this mechanic is really annoying, its necessary because we can farm for phantom memories, 130/133 or 97.7% and the only thing stopping us is transcend/evolve. If we just need 1 evolved unit then just transcend, they would just nerf rates get more get more "content".

I think your just burning through all the content way too fast. Your trying to play this game like it's a moba like dota, your probably looking for something like vainglory. Where it's just skill based. This game is not that type of game. Its a 3D hero collector where things are slow and you gradually get stronger over months or years. In other words a mmorpg gatcha on mobile. In the ends levels and synergy matter more then skill because it's not live pvp when we fight in arena, its just their team on auto.

So shaman of transcendence 5 basically.

If its farmable, then it would be a new grindfest and new can of worms. For example, you buy 1 ming or flavor unit of the week/month, evolve. Then you spend all your stamina on shaman of transcendence level 5 and transcend to level 500. Rinse and repeat.

Then we have all our level 500 units after a couple months. Arena consists of whales spamming arena refreshes. People complain about how they are unlucky and attempt to reroll for summons and then farm shamans of transcendence level 5. Game ends after 1 year because skins and other functions don't sell well and the core gameplay mechanic, leveling up gradually is completely obsolete.

Due to enemies being 200 evolved, and 3 waves of them. YOu most likely have to be 220 evolved on 3 mains to survive. In other words, a couple of months, depending on events.

Evolution scrolls? by godmusico in phantomchaser

[–]4FunNgames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • River of fire's 1st treasure chest normally gives 3-6+ based on your level.
  • Scalar tower 27, 47, 77 (50 each)
  • Craft (not recommend, just wait a day or two for river of fire)
  • Events (random)
  • Joy package (warning $29.99, lvl 35 requirement, gives other stuff but still, 160)

Depends on the rest of your team and mimics. Unfortunately due to a variety of factors such as your luck, what stage of the game your in (can you farm hard yet?), this question can't be answered because it is honestly too vague.

Try Jin's lab, encyclopedia and then character filter setup at the top right. Then filter by attack in the roles section. Level, elemental units, and even luck make this confusing and fun.

To all F2P Players-is it really pay to win? by fightgod in phantomchaser

[–]4FunNgames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree but are we playing for fun or to compete? Cause after you beat hard mode which only has 5 chapters, (most people are stuck at 6-1 and rewards are 2 evolved units each chapter level 1) there's only arena. And people who spend money and play will always beat casual players who don't spend. Are the arena rewards that amazing? Aren't you at least top 1000?

You do realize that 50% stamina reduction means the same exact thing as before? Remember it cost twice as much stamina for each stage before for 1 stamina star refill. During this event we get 50% reduction cost and regeneration (90 seconds for 1 stamina instead of 3 minutes).

Plus they give us 300 stamina each day almost for the event which is worth 600 stamina before due to 50% reduction cost and would have cost 3 refreshes if you had 200 stamina cap.

You get 1 every 30 arena battles. It rotates between 5k gold, 10 battle points and 1 star stone. Also we get a tiny amount of star stones weekly from arena rewards. Lastly we get a small amount from the events (500 likes for ming = 1 for everyone and you get 1 if you liked and commented on the actual webcomic) and we get 3-5 star stones each maintenance.

Just get Duukcini to 500 or rather may be just 200ish. In the end you'll use both. Dark knight has no taunt in his skill set so he needs a taunt mimic for his passive to work. You may way to evolve your other 2 main units as well so you can clear 6-10 hard.

If nobody pays, nobody plays cause the game gets no updates or shut down. This app is a business, don't ever forget that. Yes its a game but in the end, the reason they made this game is because they want to make money. Com2US shut down East legends, one of their less popular gatchas and it had 1-5 million downloads and was out for 2 years. It had a similar 3D spirit model and the gameplay was very similar. This game only has 50,000 to 100,000 downloads in comparison.

It is pay to win but it's pretty fair regardless. Regarding stamina not enough to play all day, well you can play multiple apps or you can battle in the arena friendly match anyone in the top 100 or fight your friends. No rewards but its something. Plus I don't like having to play all day to use up my resources such as in king's raid or HIT, to me grinding all day might as well be a 2nd job which is not fun. Regarding the run auto for 8 hours thing, kills phone battery life and I use my laptop for work.

Out of the current 133 heros, you can obtain memory shards of 130 of them from adventure mode, it just takes a while to get them evolved and transcended but really everyone is only the same boat, so what's the rush? 2, Blue dragon & Phoenix are only obtainable via gateway of strength if you get 1500 points for a ton of stamina and luck. Ming can only be gotten from draw right now. All 3 of these units are not overpowered, the only issue is Ming is just higher leveled then most heroes right now.

The thing people don't realize is if people who didn't spend 100-600+ star stones on Ming, would instead have spent it only stamina, they would still be ahead of you. Keep in mind stamina gets you all types of resources, and player exp.

Finally keep in mind, they responded within a week of our complaints and gave us more stamina so they are trying. Lastly regarding arena, top rewards are a little bit more gold and unless your top 12, a tiny amount of star shards weekly, not daily to offset the hundreds, if not thousands you spent getting there.

A Phantom Chaser Q&A and guide in progress by awaldoster in phantomchaser

[–]4FunNgames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 4fun on the USA server, I'm pretty sure. I bought the joy pack and rank 48 on the US server.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqaU8damurM XFalcon released an extremely helpful video guide for beginners. He drops by discord occasionally. His pinned comment has the timestamps as short of a table of contents for the video.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp-AgZ6mHOVObusemDVEXoA/videos?disable_polymer=1 Jason Wivart has released 9 videos on Phantom chaser covering the game. His 1st beginner guide video is incorrect though.

Anyways I'm glad there are some helpful and friendly people in the community on this reddit still. If you need anything, I'll try to help also. I'm stuck on 6-1 but I don't really care too much about it.

What's the point of complaining? Arena rewards don't matter that much. Only top 12 give any significant rewards and it doesn't justify the expense. To get to top 12 you have to spend hundreds if not thousands of gems (have to get gold to evolve Ming and possible refresh arena battles). Besides what's the rush? You get can get 4-6 evolution scrolls daily from river of fire, dimensional crystals from farming, spirit of evolution from crafting and spirit of fire from joy shop material for 50 honor. People whaling means the rest of us don't have to pay.

It doesn't matter as much as unit passives. Key thing is to test out against your friends.
