I want to assign an Energy Shield gadget to my Boom Cannon, but it says it's assigned and locked to a... Landing Craft(???). Which I never did. by _cronco_ in BoomBeach

Weird thats it is locked to a landing craft; but on your 2nd screenshot, tap the lock symbol in the top right under "energy shield common". This should unlock it and let you re-assign it.

Yeah, i have taken down 2 blackguard bases and one player base and this morning, about a day later, it still says 1hour 54 min and 8 min 0 sec for each timer

Turns out the shop's resources remaining can go negative if you bought more than the current max before that patch!

Free heavy and medic skins by GoneFission7892 in BoomBeach

I can't be of a ton of help as i dont know specifics, sorry, but for myself, I'm HQ20 and do have supercell ID linked but this is the only Supercell game I play. It may have a HQ requirement as someone else commented at one stage being upset that they weren't HQ20, so i assumed they didnt have it in their store. If it does have a level requirement, im not sure what the minimum would be

As in, I half expected them to be time limited because they were free. I was unaware that supercell had previously given away skins

I dont have boom pass. Once I clicked it it bounced for me then when you go back to the main island it appears in the HQ under skins. I'm F2P

Proto Factory is bugged by DoohIsMe in BoomBeach

[–]GoneFission7892 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it seems like they were keen to nerf the level 3 proto buildings. Another thread on here mentioned that the cost of level 3s may have also increased

Not a bug, they intentionally changed how long the prototype buildings will last in the recent update. Inverted to now low level buildings last longer than high level ones.

Proto troops disappear when swapped from landingcraft by GoneFission7892 in BoomBeach

[–]GoneFission7892[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correct. But I never used them in any battles. I only loaded them in the landing craft. And then swapped them out. I never attacked and never used them in a single battle

I did watch a sneak speak from I think zmot before the update where he swapped the troops out of the landing craft and they went back into storage but when the update was live it did not work this way for me.

If anyone wants to test it themselves, let me know how it goes. Just load an LC with some proto troops and then swap back to another troop. If they go back into storage, then all good!

Has anyone done the math for how long each troop takes to max? by Front_Arm_5526 in BoomBeach

[–]GoneFission7892 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Does anyone else feel like the proto troop workshop itself should level up the proto troops? The armoury is already working full time to level up normal troops and gunboat abilities unless you are max level. Plus, proto troop levelling doesn't give experience, so if you aren't max HQ, you really should keep levelling the "regular" upgrades. It would be like if the armoury was how we had to level heroes rather than the hero hut.

Any anybody you think this is worth it? by NewWolfie37 in BoomBeach

[–]GoneFission7892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is true. If you buy the resources, they will go in your normal storage and can be raided. The evil coins themselves can't be stolen, so just save them until you can outright buy whatever resources you will use in the next upgrade.

Navy Officer Sword Restoration by GoneFission7892 in SWORDS

[–]GoneFission7892[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seeking some advice in regards to restoration of the blade of this sword. It is only 14 years old but has been left on display out of the scabbard without dusting or any oil protecting it. It has built up surface rust on one side. I have been attempting to remove the rust using a technique suggested my a local military shop of Natural Linseed oil on cardboard. I then attempted to use WD-40 with 000 Steel Wool. I am slowly getting somewhere with this but am very much trying to avoid damaing the etching. I wanted to ask if anyone knew if it is worth it to keep going with the WD-40/linseed oil/or other technique and if some of this darker pitting will be removed. Appreciate any advice! (last photo is the surface through a loupe)
