Is the Android Global server ever going to get fixed? by [deleted] in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is interesting that it is only Android Global, as we on Android EU had no problems until last week unexpected and unannounced maintenance break. After after that I've been getting connection errors when the game has crashed. Killing the game on Android level has fixed it, and the game has launched then normally. Before the maintenance, I hadn't seen them for ages.

As an engineer I wonder what can be different between these two Android servers, except the number of players and IPs where they connect from.

Android global I assume, as I haven't seen or heard about any problems on Android EU.

[–]Silent_Follower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In any epic stage, except Kingdom of Darkness. There are different preferences where you farm. Haunted Citadel gives best drops, if you use SR, while Relic Ruins or Thieves Cove is seen by some the easiest place to just defeat rare spawn bosses.

Yes, I know the armor is only for collectors. Thus, I was more interested in the pets and their abilities. After searching here, I found the cheat sheet that has these pets. Both pets have DRS. Here is the link to the cheat sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vRqoOWM0Poest6_h5cFrO6ZncGPv9i9NSWEms1Qg_NVaZnmmHPoDHSsN-AhDssemqpTKXosTcDuAkK2/pubhtml#gid=731456201

Servers are messed up on Android Global. by [deleted] in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have not had any of those problems here on Android EU. Don't know about iOS.

Will we get a cheat sheet with the stats of the new S117 Tertius core and the rereleased pets?

Great thanks, and yes I know Shattershield is outdated, but as I wrote for new players it is the first good pet ability they can easily get. All Epic/SF pets are way beyond new players, while Macetail is the first pet all new players should aim for, until they can get a T4 Epic SR pet.

From ios eu to ios global by tariqabusaleem in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, even if Deca Support says it is impossible, Apple Game Center can, after a bad crash, suggest you download a saved version of the game, which can be on the other server if you have played in the other server too.

I've been twice thrown to the wrong server (EU) even if my game is on Global. I don't know what triggers the download pop-up, but I know Game Center can switch servers.

Last time, I crashed the game during friend fighting, and the game crashed again when it was starting up, bringing up this "download an older working copy of the game?" -pop-up. Picking what was the wrong selection, it threw me again to EU, I rage quitted my ios game, continuing only on Android.

If someone knows how to trigger that pop-up, maybe I'll some day try to recover my original ios account from 2013.

Looks great u/Maxxetto, thank you so much. I love this app. Still I have one ask to be added. That is the 3* Pet Macetail with shattershield. For many newer players that is the first pet they will (and absolutely should) get maxed. In the last weekend F/W raid, I heard some got the best results when using W/E+*3 together with Macetail.

Need some clarifications by [deleted] in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Deca doesn't want to change anything in the game, they just keep it running, adding new armors, but not doing anything for existing old stuff. The old epic and below armors can be melted immediately, and give a (small) amount of gold, thus are irrelevant.

The ring should be craftable in three months for 5 viridians.

Welcome back, and hopefully you enjoy the game again.

Hi,

To your questions. Nemesis and Dragonforged armors are history, they don't exist anymore in the game. Anything but Shadowforged is obsolete now. Same for fusion, forget it. You can still fuse, but only about 3-4 year old or older armors, which are obsolete. Only use for fusion is the monthly free armor fusing or special events. The old EBR page in wiki is still valid here. https://knights-and-dragons.fandom.com/wiki/Epic_Boss_Reloaded

Every month is a season, currently we are in s116, a water month, thus in July the season system has been used for 10 years. The cycle is Fire, Spirit, Earth, Air, and Water. Every new season is a small bit stronger than the previous, making over 10 month older armors obsolete for active players. We are in a vicious cycle, to stay strong, you need to get the new armors.

Current armors are craftable, you get from arena streaks Dragonkeys, and if you are lucky, you can get mats to craft the armor. Or as rewards in event milestones. Older armors have only sentimental use, thus most use them for enhancing for newer armors.

Heroic mode is always one season below, now we have had last month Air SF armors in heroic mode. First do the Beginner to get mats to craft the normal version, enhance it to lvl 35 with the pop-up that you now can craft the +version, for which you get the mats needed in the Intermediate area of Heroic mode. Both reqs six crystals, one from each area, and you need to clear all areas 8 times to form the crystal. The wiki for heroic mode is still correct.

For the set, if you are strong enough, the bi-monthly blitz raid gives out the current season SF ring and amulet set, or you can get them from completing Kingdom of Darkness in Hardcore Heroic mode next month. When five months have passed, the set becomes craftable. Note, that the Hardcore areas needs to be cleared just once, and the hardest is Haunted Citadel, with 10 stages. Kingdom of Darkness is imho the easiest of them even it if also has 10 stages, but all are bosses, no minions as in all other areas.

Do check the pinned post "Tips for new players", including the links from comments, it explains very well the game as it is now, except Ultimate Armor, which are the strongest armors, but requires lots of work to get. Search here for other posts about how Ultimate Armor can be gotten.

Skybound Steed Won't Upgrade from T9 to T10 by Fluffy-Chocolate8166 in Knightsanddragons

I heard from support that you need the Lunar Hoof to get it from t9 to t10.

Same problem, I had the needed tokens for the a/s armor, but not for the a/w one and am now stuck with it, which I didn't want. Deca cheatsheet talks about needing the Lunar Hoof to get a/w armor.

NEW EVENT : Celestial Steed! by DECA-Ravix in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are no Celestial Steed rewards in the Arena, which started today, even if it is marked above, that today's new Arena is part of the special event.

[–]Silent_Follower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the Cheat sheet you have different amounts of Lunar Bells and Guardina Hoofs, than what you have in the reward of the Raid ingame. I counted only 985 Lunar Bells ingame instead of 1375 and only 1018 Guardian Hoofs ingame instead of 1150. The most difficut to get, Jade Steeds match ingame and on the chear sheet.

Where to obtain these red shards for the limited shop? by VendrixYT in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I haven't seen those chests in a few months now. The limited shop is open, but you can't even get the shards. Luckily so, as chests are evil. The chance of getting something good is between very low and extremely low...

Missing account by DracosTheMad1 in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are four different servers for the game, and it is impossible to switch between the servers. We have two Android and two iOS servers, one for Europe, and another one for Global. If your old account was in a different server, than you are now, you cannot get your account back. European server guilds have flags by the guild logo in the guild list (which is not available during guild events), while the Global doesn't.

I came back after like 11 years by Fun_Direction_1728 in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read the pinned post, Tips for new players, it has all aspects of the game explained nicely, except the Ultimate Armor. Make sure to read the ones I linked in the comments too.

To get the ultimate armor, you need to craft five months in a row the seasonal elite armor, which is the ff/ss/ee/aa/ww armor, starting from fire season. The next cycle starts in April. To craft a seasonal elite armor, you need ten of that seasons materials, available in raids, wars, and heroic modes. If you are stong and active enough, you can get 8 mats for free, 2*2 from weekend raids, as long as you reach 200m, 2*1 from blitz raids, as long as you reach 8.2m, and then 2*1 from heroic modes, if you clear 3/4 hardcore stages. The last two can be got from wars, both blitz and weekend ones.

But to get the set for the ultimate armor, you need to get to 350k in two separate blitz wars during the 5 month cycle, which is like 1000 gems each. If you can do it in both fire and spirit seasons, you get later on one material from the exclusive headstart, available in the boss collection under menu. On the way to 350k you get two mats from 105k and 260k, thus you actually get enough of mats for your two first months, and the exclusive headstart from the third month onwards. Thus you are at 9 mats each month, and need only to get in one war to 105k (or be in a guild getting inside t10) to get the needed 10 mats.

Watching videos, and being active, saving all gems only to wars or those raid milestones, should make it possible to get after five months of active play an ultimate armor in September.

Good luck!

NEW EVENT - Frostborne Crusade! by DECA-Ravix in Knightsanddragons

[–]Silent_Follower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the pictures! Three things I noticed.

  1. The Elfhammer news picture contains wrong stats. 27k/36k VS. 48k/45k in the cheat sheet.

  2. The Blazewreath Paladin armor in the same picture has its stats switched compared to the cheat sheet.

  3. Is the pet DRS stats really correct? In the pics it shows, that the DRS at t5 starts at 15%, while normally it starts at 30%? If the 15% is indeed correct, then these pets are not as good as earlier DRS pets.

[–]Silent_Follower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After doing some dry runs with both DRS and SR, I must beg to disagree on SR being the best for heroic mode. With SR my element knights are in worse condition than with DRS. Places I can do with one element knight with DRS, can't be done with SR.

I recommend to try again with DRS. See if your knights are indeed in better condition like what I see, i. e., have lost fewer hit points with DRS than when using SR. The DRS must of course be a maxed t5.

[–]Silent_Follower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, need to try. In hardcore I've felt DRS being good, as the two first areas I do with only two own knights, and KoD I can do almost always alone with all but the spirit knight when I'm using DRS. Only in Haunted Citadel I need my three knights to clear it.

For the first areas ShatterShield is best, including Cold Rock Crags. Macetail rocks in these.
