My suggestions:

1. Raid and War Dragonforged in Chests
2. Less Holiday Packs so as to create a f2p Raid or War
3. HC and up declares only or just add a confirm button for declaring
4. Make Dragonforged Armors fusible, especially the War and Raid ones
5. Add more gems for hitting EB milestones
6. More expansions in the Story Line
7. Stop recycling the Quests for the Arena as they are getting boring
8. Improve your "Customer Support"
9. Add more Armor Slots
10. Improve the t250 and t100 rewards, getting a Komodo and Komodo+ (respectively) is not very rewarding at all, especially if Komodo+ is not even on par with fusible Epics that aren't the "+" version

Can we have the ability to put some special characters in our names and maybe have 5+ more characters for our name. Some characters that would be nice to use are periods, hyphens, slashes, etc.

Also, when choosing an armor to equip, your oldest armors show up first and newest last (assuming they're maxed/same level). Can this be switched? I always have to scroll through many epics just to equip the one I want on my main knight.

10. t250 rewards don't have to be good. The reward was hellfire not too long ago which was good enough. Last raid, my guild only had 23 members and mostly everyone doing fe (some gemmed a little but no extraordinary scores) doing level 3's. We came in t250. I think Komodo was fine since we barely put in any effort. There's an event every week. You won't get Komodo every single week as shown with previous rewards - Hellfire, Snowstorm, etc.

I agree with this, especially #1, #2, and #4. When the raid DF were Introduced into chests I was lucjy eniugh to grab each one for ~200 gems. As for less holiday sales, I love the idea. I havent bought a single gem in months and am still able to place into t50-t25 pure llama y on free energy. Honestly Gree, tsking away the holiday packs and introducing raid DF to chests were the 2 best moves you have made in a long time. Now lets go, im ready to claim my Pharoah's DF for 200 gems or less please! As for fusing the raid DF, I believe it's about time since every chest epic (excluding shell-shocked) is made fusable since the latest patch.

To make it fair and keep everyone happy, here is a proposal I am sure many can agree with. Raid DF in chests (as before) and Epic War DF to become fusable. Think of your player base, they all want and surely support this! Count me as the first vote, I look forward to these brilliant changes to keep this game alive!

T25/T50 purely on free energy in what, raids? Come on, is that in guild or player ranking because I don't see how you could get top 25/50 in player ranking purely on free energy.

Raid and war DF in chest is a terrible idea, not gonna go into it to not feed the trolls too much just hope gree knows who to listen to. Sure they will become fusable, looking at when epics became fusable one would think about ~9-11 months and you can have them. Enjoy!

T25/T50 in Wars with purely free energy is very much possible actually, as long as you are active enough and there are enough strip Wars (but also if you join DK Empire in Android, not 3D Alliance as the DK Empire is more larger enabling more strip Wars and uses proper stripping etiquette), in Raids, it is also entirely possible too as long as you have strong enough Armors.

Other than this, T50 is doable on free energy, T25 requires you leeching off other players or expecting them to carry you. Raids are an exception when your armor is insane (IE you hit 100.000+ per hit on a lvl6)

One small improvement would be a possibility to filter out those Guild Seekers who doesn't fulfill your guilds minimum level. It is unnecessary to scroll through page after page with sub lvl100 guild seekers.

You are wrong, T25 is doable with free energy as long as every War that you participate in is a strip as a T25 is usually with a min of 75k-95k which if you do the math works out. Assuming that you use 5 energy every Strip War against a properly stripped GM, you should get roughly 4k War Points and if in a Frenzy about 5k War Points and if you participate in only 19-23 Strip Wars (With and Without Frenzies respectively), you will hit the min (Assuming that the min was 95k).

Of course guild ranking lmao, you would NEVER see me near the t50 individual ranking. You see, on my weekends I have something called a life. This involves human interaction with my family, not with some online "family" mindlessly tappi g away at my phone and/or tablet for the whole weekend to obtain some virtual garbage that will just be stripped down next week to rinse and repeat. Hmmm... yeah, doesnt sound very appealing, I will never dedicate that much time to this game hahaha, seeing as I have a life.

Did that answer your question??? :)

Everyone their own. I cant bring myself to it either nor do i have the means to do so byt other people might enjoy it when they have a lazy weekend. I dont know the t50 scores but if you have good armors it takes considerably less time.

Anyhow. Feedback.
-Please try to prevent more bugs like the eb and heroic. Already afraid this war might be crazy cant use more bugs.
-Please take reports of hacking seriously. Both f2p and spending players dont like to compete against lvl 100 accoubtsaccounts with all df+ they got for abusing.
-No event df in chest im glad for the people that got lucky but we can really use some new designs and its just a slap in the face for the people who do dedicate their time.
-Im not too fond of the new milestone rewards. Seems to cater only to the t10 players who already get a sick DF. Id have like up to 100k and better 4* but this is too much.

It's not even about new designs. We don't need a new df in the chest every week. So far they haven't released a new event df in chests in a few chests so hopefully they keep it up.

I just tried to solo boss level 19 and ended up losing because of 6+ misses.
You know, that bit of code that goes something like


if "narrow win predicted"
then "quadruple misses to make it a loss"

is pretty anti-fun, since it punishes trying to play optimal and forces to play safe by a large margin. :( :mad:

I was thinking of a possible new idea regarding gold. Most Maxed guilds seem to have Millions of gold in their bank just sitting around not doing much.

It would be nice if you could withdraw that gold from the guild bank with the approval of guild leaders.
Allow members to request gold from the back to be withdrawn, then 2/3 of the leaders have to approve the withdraw before it actually gets pulled from the guild bank.
The 3 leaders being Guild Master, Guild Sentinel, and Guild Champion. As long as 2/3 approve, you should get to withdraw the gold.

How many of us would love to level epics and dragon forged armor but run out of gold?

So instead of using alts to donate large chunks of gold to guilds to power-level elements, now alts can be used to feed gold to your main account or to others?
edit: And you'd also remove the gold bottleneck from new accounts, since they'd now instantly could get the gold to unlock and build their whole castle.

Lol, looks like the topic about the bug that allowed people to restore used gems got deleted...
But it's silly what a mess KnD is by not properly moving all important stuff to the server and not making the client a dumb I/O terminal.
I just started doing a bit of raiding on my alts to farm some milestones and then suddenly noticed 1 being on 5 energy and the other being on 9 energy while tag-teaming level 2 raid bosses and clearing the exact same milestones. So one of them apparently got the rewards of the 24,000 points milestone twice, which should be impossible to happen if the server is in charge of handing out milestone rewards... (it makes me wonder if the client could in principle do things like collect energy milestones dozens of times or send arbitrary raid damage values which the server would then not object to...)

Kangaroeland
08-08-2015, 01:39 AM
Thats random marco. sometimes i get 24 energy off 9m milestones sometimes i get 12

But as to the deleted topic. I think gree knows what the abuse is and who are using it but it brings them money because others compete with people with unlimited gems. So why should they care?

if it was an "OR" case, they would have put "OR" there like at daily login rewards. (I don't think the extra/double energy shows up as double on the popups that show you what you gained from milestones.)

I think KnD was basically designed with a offline-ish core, having the client handle everything and they applied patches to it where they thought they really needed it when more multiplayer things got added instead of rewriting it to a server-based core. :(

In another game I play, there is no "save/sync to server", since (near) everything you try to do is just sent directly to the server, after which the server tells the client what to "playback" to the player; no saving to the client (first).
On KnD, things like special attack makes that a bit more difficult to implement, but in the time KnD has been running now, they should have been able to rewrite it kind of like that...

Weird... I thought that the "silver keys converted to enchanted keys upon app update" would mean they'd probably scrap the tired old silver chest, but it's still here...
Oh well, I don't object to my keys being upgraded to now have chance of fusion boosts, better rings/amulets fodder. The number of gems from either type probably about evens out (more often from silver, more at once from enchanted) .

Chest change wise, I would have prefered if they'd have given the Dark Prince chest the contents of the new champions chest instead of making that one an extra chest.
It would have been win-win:
- better results from DPC keys (which right now aren't really better than enchanted keys)
- Gree would no longer have to put resources into making that newbie trap Nemesis armor each week

So far, I like @Ant Venom's suggestion about selling K&D to a more professional company best in this thread!

@Marco, you don't understand: the Silver Chest has to stay there, because sure enough there will be a few players who accidentally click the button and spend gems- who cares about them feeling pissed if they get a bronze armor or an 'earth shard' in return? It's the MONEY that counts. Gree doesn't think about tomorrow.
This also applies for the Prince / Champions chest - great suggestion and any company trying to make their customers happy would do it (as it is overdue since the appearance of DF armor), just as to improve the drop rates of the 'Limited garbage' chests, but GREE won't because they either don't care or simply don't know how to do it better.

K&D is a great game, but ruined by mismanagement. I don't think it will survive this year.

I would like to see a Friend's Leader-board for the EPIC BOSS - showing your total damage and last level defeated. This would let me know how the rest of my guild is doing vs. the EB's.

As you know, the only info on the EB we get is vs. other players.

You already have a Friend Leader-board for the Arena, you should have on for the EB too.

A small revamp of the raid rewards would be nice. Just to add one or more milestones beyond 12 million points (12 million points is relatively easy to reach if you are committed or going for a >t25 run)

One new suggestion I have is to include a final milestone that gives you a df chest key (or more than one) for the weekly dragonforged chests. If only available at higher milestones it will only be available to paying players (or determined gem savers) and would be a nice reward after a lot of hard work put in to get there.

That reminded me - I would like to see you get KEYS to higher level chests as a possible outcome of opening a chest.

i.e. You use a silver key and possibly get gold key. You use a gold key, and possibly get a purple key, etc.

K&D is a great game, but ruined by mismanagement. I don't think it will survive this year.
Since the chest screen doesn't default to silver anymore, since there's _always_ a DF chest, I very much doubt that more people accidentally spend on the silver chest than wear a nememis armor... It probably barely pays the work of changing silver and enchanted chests contents maybe once a year... ;)

Dark Prince chest: with epic+epic=100% epic fusion and legendary+legendary rate for fusion to epic seemingly dropped lower, DPC keys may just have dropped below enchanted keys in usefulness (3* bling vs gems I guess as decent-ish rewards that differentiate them) so I doubt DPC keys have any incentive any more to spend that bit for the next milestone/next step on the flourishing chest etc. (which Gree might define as lost revenue...)
If Gree had upgraded the DPC to champion's chest content, they would have restored it and its keys to its state of a few months after the first epic chest was released.
Heck, Gree already seems to be half indicating they don't want to spend effort on those stupid nemesis armors by copy-pasting them from previous armors part of the time. ;) So restructuring the DPC, including removing nemesis would have made sense.

About selling off KnD to another party: well, former Gree title Jackpot Slots is now listed in the google play store under a non-Gree company, so I guess Gree does sometimes sell instead of close. Though Jackpot Slots was an odd title for Gree anyway, since it doesn't fit their "buy game, use game as 'skin' around guild war business model" MO. ;)



(Champion's chest "feels" biased though: my alt is currently trolling with 1 epic that would be a wearable for my main from each of its 2x 11 on champion's chest. (first Raptor Embrace, then Angelic Battlemail) while my main only got fodder epics. ;-P )

just one more reason why KnD is doomed.

My guild has lost 2 members this week because of the latest rain of bugs. After 4 weeks of grinding, they couldn't finish their stuff in time because of the 'temporary ban' on the game (timeouts). In general, I sense much less activity and various levels of (partially serious) anger. That doesn't keep the big spenders from spending of course, but to me it looks that more people than ever before are getting sick and tired of those bugs and pissed about those little exploits and abuses Gree directs against their customers on a weekly basis.

Not trying to sound mean, since thats what I'm known for but...

If everyone has one, it devalues those that others have. The idea is to make them rare, so that people will work to get them, and hopefully spend gems, and eventually money, to do so. This game is about making money. If they give everything away for free, people won't need to spend money or work for it.

Sure, some people think the opposite. If they give it away, people will be enticed to get more and thus spend money, but its no guarantee. And if they give away armor that is the highest level right away, if you know how to play, you could level said armor, and easily start downing EB's, using it to hit milestones in raids and wars, thus getting good armors with very little time or money investment. That isn't what they want.

Well, the step up of total enhancement points needed from epic to dragonforged is bigger than from legendary to epic, combine that with DF needing more EP per level, would make giving everybody a DF nearly as big a newbie trap as nemesis armors... (I don't feel like looking up the numbers, but for most people it would probably be better either to max out multiple EB+ or fuse the EB armors into some halfway decent epics and max multiple of those. DF "per level" stats are barely higher than those of epics; it's mostly just that their level 1 stats are silly high, while at the same time having much higher "per level" _cost_.)
I doubt many of those not farming fusion boost armor from rankings max out an DF within 1 month of getting it...

The revamped heroic mode is a vast improvement on the last heroic mode. No complaints from anyone I have talked to so far.

New fusion boost armors and the fusion boost chest were also great ideas

These are easily the 3 best improvements you have made to the game in over 6 months.

Yeah, good job for a change, really!

Now just remove the inopportune restriction of only being able to craft when having less than 170 (! ...u kidding me?) armors, and I'll not have much left to 'whine' :'(

Still cant believe you have 170 epics. Otherwise youre just holding yourself back. Yes it sucks but its not as bad as it was with 80. You really gonna pass on a free vargar and vargar+ just so you can keep a few boosts?

I think I have close to 60 epics and df's. I had 10-20 more epics at level 1 but said fk collecting and fused them all away. 170 epics not too surprising if someone collects at least one of every epic (and maybe one of every + as well). I think an increase to 250/300 armor slots would be nice.

I agree, fused about 50 epics away trying for vargar and gunslinger last weeks just so i had room for boosts.

Which is a pity! There is no logical reason why the ability to craft new stuff should be suspended just because you have collected lots of rewards over time.

The whole game becomes kinda pointless when you fight / grind for rewards that you have to delete afterwards just so you can craft other stuff with it - stuff you can then not maximize because you have deleted away the upgrade material! https://adamsart.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/crazy-smiley-5.gif

Some players may take these kinds of things as 'nature's law' just because 'it has always been that way', but there's no good reason - I would rather call it a design problem. I suppose they had some technical limitation in the early days of K&D (like using short integers for the count variable, an unfortunate array construct or whatever) and still couldn't sort that out. That is probably the only reason why we have to deal with a ridiculously small armory in times of DragonForge which swallows 150+ pieces of fusion armor within 5 minutes to maximize.

I'm not aiming at a small increase in armory space, I propose to remove this needless limitation altogether and allow us to decide ourselves what we consider worth keeping and what we don't! After all, we're allowed to do it with jewelry as well.

a) KnD most likely still is a bunch of spaghetti code or we wouldn't have the constant bugs, security holes etc. returning.
b) you yourself have just written down probably one of the reasons for Gree to not work on removing the cap: they don't want you to max out the shiny new DF within 5 minutes...
Before DF, most (sub-)top runners were probably capping all their shiny new epics within minutes, then they jacked up enhancement points needed with the introduction of DF and now they introduced the fusion boost chest, since nobody can stockpile enough fodder to max those DFs quickly...

That's kind of true, but if they make the Armor Slots unlimited like the R&A, ppl might actually pay more in top runs in Raids because then they wouldn't have to worry about running out of Armor Slots, ppl might even play HM again if they quit it due to problems involving Armor Slot limitation(i.e. Roookey1). Then GREE will also make profit too so they won't have to worry about losing profit. Too bad there isn't anyone who can and will relay it to the GREE Team.

I for one can definitely say that I would be more active in the game without that stupid limitation. Call it obsessive-compulsive or not, I won't delete nice fusion armor (FB's, 3-stars and above) which I have received as reward before. And if I can't craft anything due to this cap, it goes without saying that half of the game is pointless.

I would agree with this but if you think 50% of the game is pointless than I think 100% that responding to this Feedback thread is pointless as I can't name a single Forum user who will relay this to GREE.

Can we have the ability to put some special characters in our names and maybe have 5+ more characters for our name. Some characters that would be nice to use are periods, hyphens, slashes, etc.

Also, when choosing an armor to equip, your oldest armors show up first and newest last (assuming they're maxed/same level). Can this be switched? I always have to scroll through many epics just to equip the one I want on my main knight.

I noticed both of these have been added (some time ago). Thanks.

this is a ripoff! My armory is full of earth-containing epics I can't fuse anymore, other epics and DF's I still need, unfusible douple and triple Df's, and fusion boosts with an ingame value of real gold nowadays when maximimzing a single DF's can take several weeks. So I can't participate in the EB event, because I can't craft, and if I would clean out all FB's and the few remaining 3-stars, I couldn't upgrade those armors to be able to create the + versions later. It's ridiculous!

GREE, OPEN UP THOSE ARMOR SLOTS!!!! And don't be so greedy to cash in on every friggin' part of the game!

Can we have the ability to fuse set jewelry? Currently when you try fusing it, it won't let you select another 4* ring/amulet and says, "Combined [Rings/Amulets] need to share the same rarity. Pick a(n) [Ring/Amulet] with the same rarity!" Since blitzes replace the set jewelry with Ridges and Focus', it would be nice to have set rings count as Ridges, and set amulets count as Focus'.

EDIT: I mean fuse away, not fuse the actual jewelry.

That's probably not going to happen because I don't see GREE doing that to Armor sets. If it doesn't perserve enhancement, then people will tend to try and get more bling to do so. This is GREE's way of thinking.

Very simple, you don't. The Sentinel is supposed to be the strongest one, although there is a set amount of times needed until you can get past the Sentinel so no worries.

We really need a Flip Order button in the Armorsmith like there is in the Fusion Master. When you've been playing a long time if you want to craft low level armor for fusion you have to page through tons of armor to get to it. Please!

You REALLY need to get the programmers to reduce their memory footprint. I can't keep playing with it freezing up all the time like it is.

I run task manager to clear memory, and an additional memory manager to get around 300Mb free before starting the game, and with it constantly "Please Wait" updating, it just slows down then stops responding. I then have to kill it and start all over clearing memory and restarting the game again. This comes at sometimes the worst moments.

RE Thargor
01-07-2016, 02:30 AM
Three things are bothering me very much,and i think it's time to finally change them:

1. 3 day war!
It's very unfortunate to make wars last this long,because they tend to get boring after some time,but especially because they now end on a monday and it's quite impossible to organize attacks properly when most people are busy with work or school. I think wars and raids should be pure weekend events.

2. Set armors without r&a!
Please put ALL set r&a in chests,not just some. I would love the set for my emissary which sadly i didn't get in raid that time. But more importantly,you keep giving away armors in chests (like coldflame) for which it is simply impossible to complete the set.

3. Epic armors!
Please figure out a way for everyone to keep using epic armors. Between all the plus armors from events and war/raid,df and df+ normal epic armors have become pretty useless. Especially the epic boss armors are not even worth crafting anymore,which is very sad.

Which pet do you have? The pet's special attack from using a full guage doesn't always attack. Some pets, like the bronze star and the 1* Air pets I know off the top of my head, don't actually attack at all when you use their guage. They do their special ability instead of attacking.

Let's think about this for a moment. People are inherently *******s. What do you think would happen if people were allowed to kick other people mid-war? That power would be abused. People would kick others with an hour left of the war to go JUST to screw someone over and keep them from getting rewards.

That's why it is how it is.

I'm about to hit level 500!! Will I get anything special as a reward at that level? I doubt it. How about some definitively nice rewards at some of these milestones? I've been playing a long time obviously and bought a lot of chests during that time, but randomly always get shut out of any good armor with one exception. So I maybe be the only level 500 player with only one DF armor. I think a guaranteed DF would be nice. Or a 3 star pet perhaps.

Hitting high levels can't be purchased, it takes time and dedication. There should be a commensurate reward for it.

This is just one of the many pieces of the puzzle that turned me from a big fan and paying customer into a 'lurker' who just supports his guild by making a few points during events (w/o spending gems of course) but doesn't do much else in the game anymore. There's just too much greed in Gree, I've gotten tired of it.

I wonder how many dedicated, high-spending customers quitted over the slap in the face of inactives receiving 1000 gems and a DF armor. Guess not that many despite their big complaints, but it certainly was another big piece of the puzzle for many.
