Hey, Raenus, what's with that message in the guild chat about giving up in rage and all? Did something happen?
Bah, had a bad run with challenges. Game crashed three times on starting fights, then I got kicked out of a fight with a person with 8000 prestige (AFTER I beat their final boss) for the update. None of those counted as wins for me but of course I lost the points and had two of those people retaliate. Calmed down a bit and decided to go for the progression rewards, but I still have thrown in the towel on ranking high this week. The group you and I are in is......intense.

Yea, I experienced some headache with the update as well, had to uninstall the game several times because my app's from amazon and it was Play Store that wanted to update, lol. About the challenges, I believe its best if we think along the lines of do our best and get what we can. I'm not invested in it given that there's no way I can rank higher than top 50. There's some crazy creatures around here which I can't possibly beat.
But hey, at least we got a decent rank. Also the guild's doing good, Galaad and MarkMasters are nearing 10k prestige. We'll be better in time. Hopefully, next week's leaderboard group favors us more than this one.

Yeah, I came to basically the same conclusion. Keep it up Galaad and Mark, I have my pom-poms out and everything.
Hey, how high did you get in the first week Stevie? I placed 11th.....by 3 points.......and I beat a dungeon about ten seconds after the event ended......that was when I discovered that there is ABSOLUTELY NO GRACE PERIOD! Would have been nice to know before I rushed out and blew 25 gems on extra challenge points.
In hindsight I realize that I was just lucky as hell and got put in with a nice easy group.
P.S. Not trying to say anything by that, just curious how your group went. Also wanted to vent, that left a bad taste in my mouth.

I ranked 2nd place with 7345 prestige, I used about 100 diamonds on challenge packs to pull that off. It was a battle between top 10 mostly, I got a 3 star 3 combo dots Shard Golem which I put to good use. I think it was worth, if I joined the game sooner I would've had a real shot at first place, maybe even 10k prestige. How I wish I got a group like that again, lol. 100% attack and def win rate

Well, hot damn. Good job 
And I would definitely say that it was worth the challenge purchases. Shame the Golem was not a boss creature.

This is a bug that's getting fixed in the next update.
If you have reproducible steps to make this happen please let me know because it's a bug-- you should NOT be losing your energy on leveling up.
It's a bug?! So all this time I thought that it was a feature and went along with it, lol.
But let me clear any potential misunderstanding, what I mean by energy carrying over is if, say, you have 20 out of 70 energy and you get 90 out of 70 energy after leveling up and not 70 out of 70. Because I feel that if energy is just replenished to full on level up, you just lose the energy you had left. For me this became more apparent when I realized that I used an energy pack that boosted me over 150 energy and then basically lost one refill of energy on level up because it didn't add (not because it subtracted if that's what you meant). I think it would be more beneficial if the energy from the level up was added to what energy you already had.
+1
I think HungryDragon misunderstood you and I agree with your feeling. I do not understand the design behind this feature. It basically force you to pause the game for a while so you can time your level-up right.

I am so glad you said that, it reminded me that I NEED TO FIND A DWARF ASAP!
Quick question HungryDragon, can boss creature drop during quests? If I were to farm the giant quest would I eventually get one to drop?
EDIT: Got a dwarf.

Bosses don't drop in Quests. You can get Epic (Large) Creatures from the Quests marked 'Event', though.
Also, if you have any information on the crashes you had related to Challenge Mode I'd love to hear it. I can always use some data to help our QA guys nail down/reproduce crashing issues so we can get them fixed ASAP.

Again, thank you for taking the time to help and for just interacting with us int he first place.
As for the crashes there is not a whole lot of info I can provide. Right as I attacked someone's dungeon it crashed to a black screen for a second then returned me to my standard tablet screen, I restarted the app and it went through the whole loading/checking for update sequence. I have the same issue when I go back into a quest occasionally and rarely when I start the game.
My device is a fairly old LG android tablet, I chalked the crashes up to my tablet rather than the app considering I have not seen anyone else mention anything of the sort.

Daaamn low on energy, again. 
Always one level-up out of two, it is simply not possible to keep on playing if you want. Unless you waste diamonds in refills.
The game is awesome but this is annoying.

I don't understand how, I feel like I can play eternally given if I had the time for that  .
During the week I don't have much time, I've been stockpiling all the energy gained from the challenge event and help that to fill the gaps between levels.
With 11400 prestige I'm rank 11....Quite a dedicated pool I'm in xD
Edit: Did you buy the permanent bonus energy upgrade from the diamond shop?

Well my gaming time has enlarged with mobile since I can play on public transports and the likes.
I don't think you can play forever, the energy rewards are not eternal either and at some point you are bound to wait. The Dungeon rewards also stop after 10k Prestige. Maybe this is because the game was not intended to be played for hours straight like JVC suggests but the game is just that good.
The energy not stacking on level-ups still makes no sense to me and I am curious to hear the arguments about it.

I personally bought all 3 of them and absolutely regret I didn't do it sooner. They're such a good investment in the long run! Energy doesn't bother me that much, whenever I'm finished doing my thing I can finally take a break and come back after 3-4 hours. I'm already getting the most out of my energy and challenges so I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. Well, except when I level up and waste energy because it doesn't carry over...

I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything either, I just see I can't game on it full-time when I can afford it. What if I don't want to take a break?
I only bought the first extra max energy pack, expensive but guess I'll start saving for that..

We're going to be making some tweaks (level up rewards among others) to move more energy into a mail-item reward so that players have more choice when to focus their time into the game.
It is true the game isn't designed to be 'played forever,' mostly because the normal mobile play pattern is one of interspersed play. We wanted the game experience to work well with players able to set the game down and resume as much as they wanted (or needed) to.
