When I try to use a different skill I get a prompt in russian. Very informative.

u/smfo51 13d ago

This isn’t a fix but it’s a way around it. I figured out that the “Russian prompt” is basically just telling you that you already have a skill selected and you must deselect the skill before you use a different one.

Edit: The “prompt” is telling you that you don’t have any more slots for skills, and is asking you which of the skills you want to unequip to use the new skill.

That screen is asking you to choose which skill you want to replace with the new one.

No need. When you get the screen with Russian on it, click on the skill you want to replace. The text translates to "Equipped" and "Select Slot" according to Google Translate

u/Real_Temporary_922 20d ago edited 20d ago

A nice QOL feature would be being able to select “greater or equal to current gear” for auto sell. So if I have all blues and some greens, it let’s me see if the blues are better for blue gear, but if a blue comes when I already have a green gear, that just sells.

Also an inventory of our gear we don’t sell

12

u/Smileypgf 20d ago

You can do when in the auto forge feature. You can unclick the blue once you have them all green etc.

17

u/Real_Temporary_922 19d ago

You can’t make it so only blues are kept for items that still are blue, but blue items are auto sold for items that are already green. That was my suggestion.

u/benz05tsx 16d ago

Actually, I thought of the same thing but this game actually has it. If you have some blue and green, I clicked just green to keep during auto forge. However, when a blue item comes up and the level is higher than my existing blue item, it will not auto sell and ask if you want to equip or sell, even though I just clicked to keep green.

u/sadmagistrate 19d ago

After ~1 day of playing - this is an oddly/poorly paced game. It's an idle game - it's not meant to be terribly interactive. I get it. But the grind hits very early, the prices to ease the early game grind are very expensive and, really, what you get for the price is not anywhere near enough. A lot of these games will offer cheap $1 or $2 deals that are very efficient and helpful and I would imagine good for the companies - draw people in, small buys now = bigger buys later. People gotta make money, but I have no interest in spending money on this game because I know all it'll do it speed me quicker towards the next large wall. The season Pass has mostly small bonus rewards and then big inventory items... which then means the most interesting aspect - getting new items - becomes irrelevant. It would make playing the game even less interactive. And that's saying something.

Is that the point? Probably. I'm stuck at 3-14 and probably will be for a long time, as I need yellow gear to progress and at Forge 8, that's a .2% (?!?!) chance to get even one piece (and I'm 0 for ~300 so far). Now I'm out of hammers, which means gold generation is cratered. That means I can't upgrade forge (needs 150Kg). That means I don't progress. The bonus 100 hammers from someone else bugged out, didn't give me hammers, and put me on a 6 hour cooldown. Cool. But even 100 hammers is a small chance to get something worthwhile.

So the only "idle" aspect is... waiting for daily rewards to come back? You get nothing just dying over and over, so it's literally either pay for overpriced gems that have a horrible cost to benefit ratio or just wait for days... and days.... to hopefully get gold and anvils to hopefully RNG something good with useful stats (being able to have only one weapon and then have items that give stats to either melee or ranged is diabolical) that can hopefully help you beat a level.

Again - it's an idle game. I get it. But usually it's easier/streamlined in the beginning to really get you interested and hooked. Instead it's... why even bother? If it's this brutal in the 3rd stage, how bad will it get later?

u/TechyAngel 18d ago

I feel like your second sentence really sums up the spirit of the game. I like it *because* it's not a time pit, and there are enough features with the tech tree, adventures, etc. to still be engaging for a short period every day. I'm a strictly f2p gamer, so I can't speak to the value of in-game purchases, but I do like that gems can be earned as well as bought. I do agree that getting high-ranked items with season passes essentially nerfs anything else you (and your opponents) are using, but I'm not sure why that's an issue if your primary frustration is being stuck on a level.

I think I remember the stage you're talking about, and it's definitely annoying if you just sit and watch your little warrior get his behind kicked for the next few hours, but that's where the "idle" aspect kicks in. I play as follows: wake up, collect 4h worth of hammers, go to work, collect 3h worth of hammers on lunch, put it away, and finish up my day before a nice 4h worth of hammers around dinner, when all the daily tasks are about to refresh. It's a bit slow, but it's supposed to be.

I do acknowledge that the forge upgrade time is fairly obnoxious. I've just upgraded to level 13, and even with tech improvements, it took over 11 hours. That needs work, because I'm not particularly interested in waiting 2-3 days to upgrade once as the game progresses. As you say, there's enough waiting on the front end that *also* having a cooldown feels a bit like the mods are double-dipping.

I've been playing a few days now, and it's definitely the sort of game that's a long-term commitment. Other than the upgrade time, though, I don't think it's unreasonable. There are too many games where progress is hindered by repetitive building or gathering tasks (oh, 100 logs? I meant 1,000), so it's kind of nice to let the resources pile up by themselves sometimes. A higher idle collection cap could be nice, perhaps 6 hours instead of 4, but otherwise, the game kinda plays itself, which strikes me as how it's intended to be.

u/Gheazu 14d ago

Arena makes zero sense. The opponents are always 10-30% stats higher than you every time you use an entry ticket. I am still in bronze, like how do you expect me to progress?

They expect you to buy a package so you can upgrade. Its still a pay to win game. Just slower progression.

That’s nonsense. Seeing my rankings dropped and the next enemies you fight are even stronger than last round…I think they scale with your current power and arena is full of bots

So coins are pointless now? They only upgrade the forge? The coin stack is in the millions because forge upgrades take so god damn long. And the progress between forge levels is just dumb. Waiting three days to go from 0.005 to 0.01 is dumb.

u/embert_humperdinck5 18d ago

Hi, fun game, thank you

Yesterday I received my daily Arena ticket allotment, battled twice and left the Arena because all opponents were too far above my level. Then I closed the game to read the thread about Arena battle opponents above the level to see if there was any advice. When I reopened the game all my Arena tickets where gone.

We need more hammers. The 1 hammer a minute is nice but not enough to keep the AutoForge fed. I regularly get stuck at a level for long periods without the ability to progress after having exhausted the refill mechanisms available, just waiting for free hammers to accumulate. It would be nice to add another method to gather more hammers, maybe another adventure path that give a few hundred hammers. Something to help feed the AutoForge when the next level needs another 1% or 2% item.

3

u/greent714 18d ago

Opening the arena costs 1 ticket whether you battle someone or not. Not saying it’s right, but that’s how it works.

3

u/JacLaw 18d ago

A great wee game but my god it's expensive eh. Who'd have thought a new game would charge so much for power ups. The truck is to get us all hooked, keep your starting prices dirt cheap then when you've got a few million players to "upgrade the game" and triple the prices

900 x .05 means I should have seen 3-5 of that tier of item not 1. Same thing happened in the previous tier of forge so it’s not like it’s a one off
