Once again, Gree gives us a temp bonus that can't be used.

[Jnsolberg]

The Normal prize for the Tussle in the Thicket is a Molxur Knight Spectre with a +3% Infantry Defense boost for Raid Boss! Wtf?

The Heroic prize is a Molxur Ravenlord with a +5% Magic Attack boost for Raid Boss. Wtf?

Perhaps if anyone at Gree ever played KA they would know that boosts do not come into play against the Raid Boss. Especially ad Defensive boost. If these boosts were for the upcoming war, that would make sense. However, a weak, temp boost isn't a very strong incentive for completing the PvP.

Bolt, please look into this and make the boosts permanent.
Peeps are already deciding to not complete the PvP since it is a lot of XP and only a temp boost that is complete worthless.

[Zepson]

Proof once more, that the devs working on KA haven't got a clue what this game is about.

[Gendur]

I hope this is getting corrected, does anyone know if they fixed it last time?

[Toddiekska]

I am editing my resume and adding Beta Tester.

Why should we have to point out ALL of the errors with this game and then plead to have them fixed? (Rhetorical question)

[Jnsolberg]

I hope this is getting corrected, does anyone know if they fixed it last time?

They did fix it last time. No announcement, but the temp bonus changed to a 4% alliance boost

[Valid or]

I hope this is getting corrected, does anyone know if they fixed it last time?

The temp part was fixed last time,
but this would be the first time they have given us bonuses that are pointless, even if they changed them to permanent it would not change that they are for the raid boss...which dose not use defence as a factor when attacking, and only bare stats work on raid bosses no bonuses.

[Jnsolberg]

A lot of peeps in my guild have decided not to do this PvP because the boosts are truly worthless. We need clarification before it's too late for them to catch up!

Bolt?

Bolt?

[Vile Lynn]

Send in tickets... I doubt we'll get any help here. :rolleyes:

[Bolt]

Sorry everyone, I've been slammed this morning. I'm talking to a developer to get some answers, I'll post an update as soon as I have something.

[Jnsolberg]

Hopefully they see the bonus offered are 1000000000% useless toward RB, and make them .......
1- Good towards war
2- permanent for regular day to day play

Cheers

Update:

The attack boosts were designed so that they do work during a raid boss fight; regular boosts don't work but event specific ones do. The defense boost does not affect the raid boss as you point out but it does affect your stats for PvP and the like. At this point there is no plan to change the items but we are taking your feedback into consideration.

lol.... thx for clarifying - but sorry.... I really can not believe that the attack boost will effect the RB and your answer about the defense boost is really funny. Did anyone at Gree play KA? Really doesn't look like that.
but thx again... time enough to skip this quest also

Since we have a new type of bonus, the chances of it working correctly the first time are virtually nil.
Thanks for looking into this for us Bolt, at least now we can stop the PvP and relax until Raid Boss

[The red Baron]

The boost will help during RB, not against boss, but against other players, thats what i understood, not value added only funny, a temporary defense boost against players

[Erageous]

Just gonna sit back and sip my tea and see how this plays out.

So basically we are not getting any bonus, since either it will not work or there is just no bonus really

So if players use gems to finish PVP, then this bonus are working as intended.........milk $$$

Ok bolt, I'm going to take you and the developers at your word. There is a boost designed to somehow increase your attack on raid boss, something we've never seen before, since raid boss is usually just your raw stats without modifiers and boosts. Fine, color me intrigued.

Now, can you just go ahead and tell me where I look to find out what my raid boss damage is now, before I finish the pvp quest, just so I can verify this boost works as intended and my hits go up. Cause in playing this game for 2-3 years, that number has NEVER been able to be seen on your profile. You wouldn't know until you hit the boss.

If your giving out a boost to increase my hit, I would like to know what my hit is right now please. Seems legit question right?

You need to go to your local and buy 9-11 10 sided dice. Roll them 13 times and take the average. And then. Wiggle your nose.

I used to use dice for customer quotes (knew the order of magnitude so was generally fairly good). I'm sure that's how some of this game works!

I have finished 99 smacks on the last level of pvp on two accounts. I am going to wait to finish the last one (assuming the event timing allows this) and wait to do the 100th of 15/15 after I know my RB damage.

I should be able to determine if the increase after completing the event is 1) inclusive of both the new unit AND a bonus, or 2) it includes only the unit.

[BeastMode...on]

Ok bolt have a gripe. The prize for beating the pvp quest was a 34m unit and supposedly a 5% boost to atk for raid boss.

Pre beating pvp my mega was 43.7 bil
After it is 43.8 billion

That jump is the unit only. A boost would have increased it much more. So what gives? Did you and the developers just straight up lie to us?

Ticket has been sent in but I believe we are owed an explanation

[Schar]

Awesome BeastMode, you should be a tester!!
In all honesty fanstastic empirical evidence. Good job.

Gree did state a while ago, bonuses don't work ver. Raid boss...did they lie..not on that, they gave us a unit with a bonus they knew did no good and wouldi have no effect. But think I said that in a earlier post, did you think they changed it to work with bonuses?
Edit: Miss bolts post about them being special, guess they failed to test it out, or it's just that small it's not noticeable.

Oops, the temp attack boost doesn't work. What a suprise!

[Summer Kessler Sharma]

So I just finished PVP quest and expected my FA against raid boss to go up...... It didn't go up at all!!! Is this being fixed ASAP? Like before the event ends? or did I just earn all this xp for a bonus that doesn't work?

[Sim]

This is so sad that it is 'kin' hilarious!

That's what you get for believing that Gree can get a new bonus correct without a major update.
Remember Health Increase?

[Lord Vyper]

Hey, take it easy.... good thing is: the raid boss is crap too - so why do we need a boost? Let's enjoy the summer :D

no.... seriously it is a shame how they treat us - and yes, they tried to lie, but it was to obvious from the beginning to think they managed it to get the boost active against RB (we would have seen that - such changes normally crash the whole game....)
I really love my guild mates - that's the only reason why I still play

[BeastMode...on]

Approaching 24 hours into RB. No answer here from Bolt. No response to my ticket. The "bonus" for the RB event does not work, and as we approach the weekend, the chance of receiving a response becomes increasingly unlikely before the event ends.

If I treated my clients (paying customers essentially) like this at my job, I sure as hell wouldn't have many left

[CrawFishEater]

They should just make it permanent. It surely wouldn't hurt anyone. It was a very time consuming quest and would surely be a good will gesture towards the community.

As its really is not new, or surprising, just the same old. Gree will keep doing the same. And it is a never ending cycle.
Hard to believe a few short months ago I still had optimism and belived what gree said, or gave them the benefit of the doubt...now, not at all. My confidence in them is gone.

All will be ok when they roll out yet another community spokethingy as Bolt is gracefully retired. Optimisim will return that the next person hiding behind coloured text will be the best thing since squeeze-tube cheese.

Lol,
my confidence is gone in gree, too long with the same issues. Unless their management wakes up and changes things...nothing will ever change.
For there social face to us, they do the job as they are asked, and have no say in policy or how things are run, best they can truly do is pass along what we say, and most times I feel like it gets past to a blind man's dog to read. ok maybe this analogy is a bit harsh but sure feels like that, when we read the customer service replies.

This is basically what happens yes, during the time period the raid boss is 'active' attack and defense boosts apply to any activity which uses boosts (which does not include the raid boss). The way it was explained to me, the attack bonus should have applied to the boss but upon further inspection a programer looked at the code and determined it does not in fact specifically affect the raid boss. My sincerest apologies everyone, we will be more diligent in fact checking the information we pass along to you.

We've never had a forum mod banned before.

Greetings all, I am your new Kingdom Age Moderator. I'm putting together a "hello" thread and it will up shortly in the announcement. I'm looking forward to working with you all!

For now, thank you for bringing this to our attention, we are looking into this issue and will report our finding as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

[BeastMode...on]

what a joke...

I have posted in the past that I was against throwing around the "fraud" terms and running to apple...but this one, plus the GLTQ which all responses and decisions are "on hold" as per the answer to my ticket, icing on the cake for me.

If anyone would like to start a petition to send to Apple, please sign me up. 1 person complaining won't do $hit. Hundreds of the games customers will. Groupme name is MrMike45. Would be happy to add to the petition and help get people signed up. Have plenty of contacts on many of the top 10 teams/gem spenders.

and if this gets me banned...maybe i'll go chill with Bolt
