Ignore the timer in the globe. That was meant for the Hardcore Boss event, which is going live March 18th. The goals have the right of it. Sorry for the confusion.

That answer actually doesn't help clarify the issue. Based on your answer the boss will overlap with WD. WD and EB share the same health. Are you saying both events will be live at the same time? That doesn't seem right.

This is another question since clarified when the end of EB is, EB and WD use same health so now players will be forced to stop EB to be active participent in WD.

We are aware that the Epic Boss overlaps WD and that they share the same Health. We could have made a 2-day event to end when WD started, but did not want any players to miss out considering the Hardcore Boss was never fully launched. We do not plan to run Epic Boss alongside WD again.

Thanks for the clarification. Can you just end EB tomorrow at 5pm EST. I think most would agree it's for the better, well I assume they would anyway. It's WD, players should only have to worry about that and you're going to negatively impact the lower ranked factions that don't spend heavy gold as the either need to chose between the boss or helping their team.

Hightower, I think it's important to not that this epic boss is also broken though I doubt you're getting many tickets about it if any at all. It's broken in our favor.

The event is supposed to be 4 days yet last night when it started all 4 days of faction goals were released concurrently. It took my faction a few short hours to complete all 4 days.

Part of the reason for our ability to complete the daily factions goals so quickly is the timer between when the next boss can be summoned appears to have been eliminated. Historically you've had to wait 90 seconds to 2 minutes to summon the next boss but this go around that was not the case. I think everyone would agree this should stay. Why do we need to wait to summon. It seems pointless.

Another problem was that the prizess for killing boss 100 and boss 150 along with the 4 daily faction goals were not received until you killed boss 150. This is not good, especially for people that can barely do 100.

Then there is the crashing on iOS. If you are lucky you can kill 2 bosses before you crash but for a lot of players you can only do 1 boss at a time before your game crashes. Compare this to android where bosses can be killed at a rate of 3-6 bosses a minute if you are fast with your fingers. The crashing is really out of hand and it makes every aspect of this game Unenjoyable if you are an iOS player.

The last thing I would add is that the loot is really outdated at this point. Prizes dropping for boss 50 on up are crap, especially compared to what is now available in the store. Either don't drop units as loot or increase their strength to at least allow them to make an army. Players doing 150 bosses don't benefit from loot with a max strength of like 45m/45m. It makes no sense to award prizes like that to players that can kill that many bosses.

The fact that Hightower acknowledges that WD and EB uses the same energy but is STILL going to allow them to run at the same time is ludicrous! SMH. . .

Sounds like a good time to give everyone unlimited health packs and just let everybody whale (pun intended) away.

That would be cool, but iOS users could get 2 hits in and the game would crash. So it would get to
Bothersome.

I only just realized I wrote March...the next HCB runs on April 18th and is not a time traveler.

Although it is entirely possible that the Hardcore Boss event will be fixed and will go live on March 18th, 2017...
