Corrected damage increase of burn from Fiery Sting ability of Thorn King, and removed Burn being uncleansable

Not sure if that was the actual problem? The problem was if you applied burn, the Thorn King died automatically as soon as you ended turn. But maybe its saying the same thing just in a roundabout way, not sure. I’ll try to test it when it goes live.

[KenpoKid69]

Patch notes and new season look great.

@Jeto

Money Buys Happiness (120 Green Mana)

Deal X Poison Damage, plus your Gold Bonus divided by [7→2].

Spellbook Level: Poison Damage, Rarity: Gold Bonus Division

So how does this spell work exactly? Lets say its ancient mythic and I have +100% gold bonus. I divide it by two since my spell is ancient mythic…..does it add 50 damage or 50% damage to the spell from my gold bonus?

[Jeto]

I believe it adds +% damage

[KenpoKid69]

Ok good, was hoping it worked that way or it would be a pretty pointless gimmick.

[Jeto]

And I’m following up on this one as well!

[KenpoKid69]

@Jeto

Available only in the 4.2 Season Cache (or Archive), this item will drop at Legendary rarity.

Is this correct or should it say this item will drop at Legendary and Mythic rarities.

[Jeto]

Thats just me missing a word!

[KenpoKid69]

• Added setting to skip Rest and Recovery menu in Events and Adventures

I don’t know if its possible, but this should almost be two settings. One to skip Rest and Recovery menu in Event and one for Adventures. As most people I think want to skip it in Adventure, but its pretty important in Event. So if its just one setting, not a huge deal, but it means alot of people will be constantly enabling and disabling it every day for Event.

“Brain in a jar”.

Forget about its stats, that’s my new favourite minion right there!

[KenpoKid69]

He’s pretty good too, not just another pretty brain in a jar. His level 50 stats……

Brain in a Jar Might 95 Recovery time: -19% Speed 145 Mission Time: 29% Cunning 210 Bonus Key Chance 42%

It’s the name and design that got me. It’s even got its own dog tag with the letter ‘B’ on it.

I’ve also never bought a Platinum Pass but I might have to purely for that Zerk skin.

[Swivel]

Just to clarify….will Emrick’s Grip power multiplier be determined by the number of skulls on-screen when your hit connects at the end of your turn?

Or will it continually increase as skulls potentially appear due to cascades/skull creation?

Or will it change dynamically during cascades/skull creation/skull matches i.e the power multiplier can reduce as well as increase depending on how many skulls are on the board at that exact moment?

Do it! I bought 4.0 for the Paladin skin (and I don’t even use Paladin, lol). The other plat stuff is good too so worth it IMO if you like the skin.

[Dani]

I like Mimicoin, makes me think of Gimmighoul and Mimikyu from Pokémon.

This, its basically gloves for spellcasters, like Dragonking axe users. If you’re using it in a cascade build, I’d probably run it with 2 piece warlord set that includes warlord wrap so that regardless of what happens you still get a buff from all the skulls from that turn.

I’m interested to see how they perform as a direct replacement for the vanilla Runic Wrists in a cascade setup (with a Warlord I bonus), even just for experimental purposes. Gives me something to farm for lol.

• Corrected damage increase of burn from Fiery Sting ability of Thorn King, and removed Burn being uncleansable

About to update this to:

Fiery Sting ability now increases the burn damage on the player, rather then on Thorn King himself. The Burn damage has been updated to the intended 9% instead of 200% of total health. Additionally removed Burn being uncleansable from the ability description

[Jeto]

Reminder: If someone in your Kingdom updates before you, you will be locked out of the Kingdom.

If you are already in the Kingdom in a battle or interacting with the menus and you aren’t on the latest version or someone in your Kingdom updates before you, you will get an error.

This is not a bug. Everyone in your Kingdom need to all be on the latest version

[DR-T-BOY]

Good looking season.

Jeto: I’m guessing ‘Elite’ should be Tuesday 7th October?

• Hard - Tuesday 30th September (00:00 UTC)
• Elite - Tuesday 7th September (00:00 UTC)
• End - Monday 13th Oct (11:59 UTC)

Cheers,
