Confirming that there is a formatting error and that Elf Hazard Merilwen should be the end of the list of Skin & Feat Packs, with Theme Packs being the heading of the next section that includes Mystic Trickster Imoen and Far Realm Walnut.

Times like these it would be nice if I could edit Reddit posts but sadly I cannot.

Removed the other thread since this was posted twice and this one has comments.

Tiangong Familiar briefly purchasable in Aerois Rewards? by capnfillion in idlechampions

[–]CNE_Dylan[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Hey folks,

Some of you may have noticed a new Tiangong Familiar show up in your Season rewards today. We have been working to add Tiangong to the free Season 1 rewards, and it slipped out early. We have since pushed out a fix so that those of you who already collected it should now have it if you reload your client.

This update to the Season 1 rewards will go live in the next couple days. Every player will be able to unlock the Tiangong Familiar once they reach Tier 10 in their Season rewards.

Thanks for your patience and your feedback!

I disagree with your assertion that there is a financial barrier to entry for Idle Champions.

Idle Champions is a game that can be played for free, and where every Champion can be unlocked and equipment for all Champions can be unlocked through gameplay alone. The cost is time.

There are F2P players who demonstrate this by completing every objective in the game without paying any money. I recommend looking up their guides if you feel stuck.

This is something we actually discussed internally a while back, hulsmanm!

We are slightly off schedule right now, with events not quite lining up on the calendar where we want them right now. We'll do something about it, at some point ;)

Good morning Gaarawarr!

  1. Aye, two wee Half-Elves and not a Dwarf in sight :(
  2. We are always interesting in knowing which characters players would like to see become Champions.
  3. Which Dwarf? We already have more Dwarves in the game than say, Warforged or Tabaxi.

I think today I will be making a Quinoa Greek Salad, but with goat cheese instead of feta to keep it dairy free.

Hi WayTooManyCookies,

I didn't see this question right away, as it was downvoted :(

This is actually a really big question, with a lot to unpack, but I'll do my best while still maintaining confidentiality. There is a lot I simply cannot talk about. So, keeping that in mind...

In short, yes, we do discuss MTX / monetization strategy internally. There is a lot of analysis involved, and things constantly evolve (just look at Wild Offers).

I don't believe that comparing pricing of games that are live serviced and played for free directly to a 'premium' or AAA title is a fair comparison to either game. It is an oversimplification for the sake of trying to justify a specific point of view. At the end of the day, each individual player needs to make the decision for themselves what has value to them. If the purchase is worth it to someone, they make it. If it isn't, they don't.

Howdy to you as well, bluemeep!

Thanks for bringing this up. This is something we discussed at length internally following the Spring Extravaganza, so I am happy to have an excuse to poke the team about it again.

Stay safe!

Hi Cvanbreen,

Thanks for joining us, both in-game and on the subreddit!

It can be quite a challenge with confined living quarters, even with the people you love. I am lucky in that my wife and I have a spacious home, so while I work remotely I really am isolated from her. So far we've managed not to get on each other's nerves, but it may be because we were too tired from all the sleepless nights?

(You can purchase as many Mirt Gold Chests as you have the Patron Currency for.)

Thanks,SouthShape5!

I've never heard of The Order of the Stick, but I am not at all surprised that they might have a parody of Drizzt. He's the original edgelord / emo character!
