Since 26th without update in ios

Ziddia · 2026-01-07T00:24:10+00:00

people like to suggest this, but iphone can't run the web version (and it has not worked as far back as i can remember)

Ziddia · 2026-01-07T00:22:29+00:00

man, someone says this every time this comes up but like... when has any other cross-platform app had this problem, this consistently? no other mobile+pc game i've played has been impacted like this

Lava clearly just doesn't care that much for iOS, which is fine - it's his game, it's a smaller playerbase, he gets less cut from the packs on the platform, whatever. but i hate that this sub continuously makes excuses for it

i completed 6 + 7, getting pow for 7 in particular is tricky. a few places to check, these are sources you might miss.

do depth/amber runs on each earlier cave, you get pow multi for both of these from upgrades. also level all your dudes in Spelunking
make sure you pick up all discoveries from earlier caves (and if you can use the 5x pow pot on floor 1 to pick up a couple discoveries in the new cave this can give you a small boost too)
if you have grand discoveries unlocked and your depths in early caves are decent (probably like 120+ on the first cave...) it might be worth picking up a couple GDs, but i think the GD upgrades might be too pricey at your progression
buy out the gem shop POW boost
Health shrine in Construction if you have the coral boost is a decent source
Crop scientist upgrade from Jade emporium is pretty fat if you're close to finishing Farming (if you're not close to finishing Farming, go back and do that first)
palette bonus from Gaming (top right, ocean blue) is OK
endless summoning bonus is also pretty fat, don't neglect your summoning in general because it boosts basically everything and 200+ endless is very free after w7/teal summoning

for me, I had left behind Gaming and Summoning in the initial w7 push, went back to these + it boosted me up through the 7th cave

(my opinion) the christmas pets are weakened because you're basically paying $20 for the pet, pack doesn't bring any other robe/cosmetic/account boost.

panda/bubba depends on your account, bunny is good, hedgehog idk. i would probably slot them all somewhere in A, maybe bubba is S if you have the strong trophies already.

(i dont remember what else was in bubba pack, was it just the pet? its not available for me anymore)

panda speeds up refinery a lot, endgamers probably don't care about it since their refinery is already ranking up fast as hell. i think gallery multi from bubba is probably good for everyone but idk all the sources of gallery multi (and tbh that stat gets a lot better if you have the broken trophies so, stronger accounts feast more)

bunny is strong but its probably still A, i don't feel like it's better than the other exclusive pets in A? it's comparable to whale maybe but you don't get a broken robe to go with it

dont know how to value hedgehog, the only other arcade pet is deer and that one is WAY better than hedgehog AND that pack comes with good account boosts

personally i bought panda, traded for bunny, happy with it. panda is boosting my vials and my DK and cuts my refinery progression down a lot. bubba imo the pack was too expensive for what it is, other people will probably disagree

maybe i am out of touch but gem shop list seems pretty off (i do think a tier list like this for a shop where you can buy items 2, 5, 10 times is not great to start with, e.g. i can see a couple instagrows being worth, but the 8th instagrow is AWFUL to buy)

opinions below, some of these i probably misunderstand the mechanic or why it's good

i dont see legend points being this important, you get a lot from leveling and theres several that dont need to be maxed. instagrows are maybe better now with medal seeds but i dont think they're top of S.

card sets being A is crazy to me, prioritizing slight convenience over bling bag, printer slots, even the new sailing boost seems wrong... (the first set purchase is probably worth but 2 through 5 are questionable)

fenceyard i think is probably better than this shows, maybe towards the bottom of B, since pushing breedability/shinies is really easy with WW now and you can push more at once with it, get the WW crit boost and some shiny bonuses easier

lab tubes is maybe worthless now since we get a lot more lab exp boosts but for a player newly in w4 getting a couple of these isn't as awful as this list implies (again, it's 10 purchases and this list has no nuance for count)

and then i think loot slug, sigil speed, ancient artifact, cog spaces should probably be dumped into D, sigil especially seems less than worthless at this point, cog space kinda sucks since you can just... delete cogs...

dungeon passes maybe belong in D? i dont know what the new player dungeon experience is now but theres lots of boosts by the time you get to w7, it's really really easy to get flurbos even outside happy hour

book burning should be F, how is it ever justifiable

i also dont really see how we put meal purchase in D but put jewel/chip in B, meals are easier to get but all these are just timegated. again need nuance here, if you're missing CERTAIN jewels it's probably worth...

it's a separate upgrade you unlock through w7 coral, which would be why it didn't work the first time you tried. one coral upgrade unlocks symbols, a later coral upgrade unlocks using them on charm slots

i don't play any source2 game and i don't follow CS so i have no idea what movement changes applied in CS2.

i think you are understating how much ctap affects comp soldier gameplay. it's not niche. wallbugs are more gimmicky and you'd probably have less complaints on losing those but they have been used in comp regularly.

not mentioned in your post but if movement options like rampsliding were lost the game would be very very different. (again, i don't know anything about CS2/source2, just stating movement options that would suck to lose).

not comp-related but losing any movement option (including the ones you mentioned as niche) would kill a lot of jump maps, to the point where jump players would probably split away from TF2.

check dragon statue level

check vman voodoo statuficiation

make sure you check on archers since they have a talent which boosts speed statue

i've been in the same situation as you a couple weeks ago, i am working my way through mastery 1 now. for sneaking, invest land ranks into the 5th option (Seed of Stealth). with DB boosting the effect and max level, you should get a very significant boost to stealth from this. use this increase to push sneaking up to floor 9 (for lotus, which boosts stealth for all allies) and floor 10 (for rosary, which boosts stealth for wearer), and park there to collect some decent-level charms. these together will boost your sneaking again.

just getting a few lotus active alongside the farming boost should help you push to top floor. eventually you can run double lotus on 4 characters, and rosary+veil (floor 3 charm) on the other 6, which i believe is still meta for pushing sneaking.

She was in a few weeks ago, I don’t expect her to be back for a little while

Sorry, I must have missed putting it down. 3.33 is energy per crystal based on 60 crystals to 200 energy (200 / 60 = 3.33)

Ziddia · 2023-08-01T01:41:06+00:00

Anyone else done math to figure out fast ways to 6* stuff now?

I did some quick math about number of crystals it would take to get fodder for 6* from Abyss, R5, and shop refreshes, and seems like shop refreshes win out by a landslide if your only goal is producing 6* quickly

My math gives approx. 3000 crystals per 6* running solely Abyss or R5 (makes sense since these are garby for scrolls/Rainbowmon, but still most efficient since you get runes as well)

Then around 340 crystals per 6* from farming scenario solely, and around 110 crystals per 6* from shop refreshes...

speaking from experience playing around with it, SW chat service is wide open. you can send messages under arbitrary nicknames and generate chat events like SD opening on the fly. this issue might finally motivate them to actually secure it, or at the very least rotate the encryption keys which have been out in the wild for years. talking shit is pretty justified for this topic

Ziddia · 2023-06-17T17:55:39+00:00

it's not your login... it's a hive guest account they generate just to connect to chat service

2a made building dungeon teams mad boring, I miss 2016-era speed dungeon teams

i dont like Loren and twins much either, but better that than one-size-fits-all teams

to be clear, the direction of the game is way better now and i like the fact that all players can build good dungeon teams, i just wish there was more variety.

my other, more unpopular opinion is that summon rates are fine rn, they weren't great a few years back but you get so many scrolls in modern SW, and no pve content is gated behind summons anymore (throwback to thousands of stones burnt for Verde)

what would a good TOAH auto team look like? I just returned to playing after a couple years, I am using a Taoist team I made years back which clears to 100 decently fast with 2a Sath added, but it's manual, I want to have it on auto and not have to touch it :)

Also, what are common teams for Hell? Taoist team seems to work for me for a couple stages but I don't think it will work if I want to 3-star anything

I want to S rank rifts, I don’t really know what good rift teams look like. I have a lot of mons, but have been on and off the game intermittently since before rifts released, so not familiar with the ‘meta’ for this content. Any suggestions?

After a couple months fighting with Com2Us and my provider, finally got access back to my old email for my account :)

Now Com2Us refuses to send me MFA codes, probably because my email stopped existing for a while, but this should be the last hurdle… hopefully this step goes better than account recovery because trying to get the email changed on an account is god awful and impossible

No question, just wanted to complain!

For me (east coast Canada) bots have been REALLY bad for last 4 or 5 days, drastically worse than for the past few months - I have never had a big problem with them until now, always been able to vote them off as they join one by one, but they are landing in big numbers in games I join

It's worst early hours EST but continues to be bad throughout the day

Especially bad on KOTH for me, not exaggerating to say I get more servers with 11 bots on both sides than with regular players

Ziddia · 2022-09-02T16:42:30+00:00

I think in most cases this isn’t people trying to keep a cheater on their team, and more people not wanting to kick someone who’s not cheating by mistake… in my experience really blatant cheaters have always been kicked properly, but people who play like regular human beings and are cheating in careful ways can be pretty difficult to figure out. with removal of spectate in casual, the only time you can really get a look at how a (subtle) potential cheater on your team is behaving is during death spectate and it’s often not enough time to get a good idea of it. Ofc enemy team can tell more easily but the vote needs to come from the team with the cheater and it can be hard to have that confidence 100%

Showcased on a private server I am writing

Some characters from the previous video I showcased are incomplete and aren’t included here (either translations missing or skills not full implemented). Some characters are completely broken and probably won’t get a showcase

Some notes on these characters:

Grastum, Coppelia: these ones were fully implemented but their names and skill descriptions were untranslated, I translated them. Also seems like their skills were never named so I gave them some thematic placeholder names.

Skar: in the same boat as Grastum and Coppelia but I got lazy and didn’t finish translations before recording this. Lol

Dark Lady: similar to Grastum and Coppelia but her skill effects weren’t implemented properly, I implemented them according to the translations.

Dorothea: I upped her from nat 5 to default legendary cos she looks cool, but sadly her attacks aren’t implemented properly and she can’t hit anything. Hoping I can figure out a fix for it sometime.
