Thank you for making Prisoner attainable more easily :)

Glad to see my achievements are finally fixed even if took months to fix something that was broken due to poor coding and negligent testing.

Still upset that I have to pay for more character slots when it is MONTHS overdue.

My achievements aren't fixed. "Clear LoL XI-XV 3,000 times" started at zero. It didn't keep the cumulative total, and I've STILL been counting up from zero. It should have started including the lower achievement.

6 Hell Awakening Shards, which as of today's patch should be dropping in the Infernal Dungeon, as well as the usual max awakening stuff.

Just went through 2 mega refils (1300 SoT) and reporting getting 5 colorless 4* awakening shards.

Didn't pay attention for other material, but burning 300 ironite for 5 shards that are scarce all over is brutal.

Hopefully we'll see some hot fix where they commit the change for "Increased drop rate of 4* Colorless awakening materials", as it doesn't feel increased.

Can someone else report their drop rate please?

That's actually a huge improvement; a full key takes ~6 megas (so ~3600 SoT) and 5 colorless 4* shards would be a pretty average drop for that... 5 shards from 1300 SoT is pretty epic.

Edit: My own key just finished; I got 22 of them with one key. This is a HUGE improvement over previous drop rates.

Does anyone know if they fixed the "remove beneficial effect" missions under the Challenges? And does anyone else has a red dot on Achievments but no completed achievements?

Yup

6 Hell shards from the infernal dungeon, Unfortunately they seem to be a super-rare drop, at least for me.

Devs, thank you for making this update run so smoothly. No issues so far, and it's going great. Bravo.

I agree!!!!!

This was the smoothest update I can remember in a long, long time.

I was hoping, since the Samurai dungeon is coming, that they'd update the Emperor artwork. It's REALLY hard to tell which is which based on the square icon. I've lost track of the times I picked one and thought it was the other. They've done such a fantastic job of revamping the icons and appearance for the others, but Emperor needs a little help the blue on the helmet isn't enough variation.

Another two mega refils got me 5 4* shards out of 40 runs, so I would say they drop with a 12.5% overall rate for me.

As you went through 3600SoT, which gave give 103 runs on itself, but given SoT return, I would round it somewhere around 120 runs that you've squeezed out of it (that number is EPIC).

So, drop rate for 22 shards from 120 runs is around 17%

I'll revisit these numbers again, when I get some ironite, but we roughly know what to expect now- thanks for reporting!

Prisoner is still garbage in PVP,why you devs didn't make his passive better?Also he is bugged,when moonchild revive he is immune to prisoner poor passive...People don't awake all characters that this devs promote...save your resources for something better...

I do have an annoying red blob (not sure what you call them) on my achievements tab that will not go away though there is nothing to collect or that is new so not sure if others have that or not - pretty minor stuff to be honest as it was a smooth update which is appreciated for sure.

Anyone else getting the red blob on achievements?

I seem to get a red dot every update that contains achievements, it goes away it you earn and collect an achievment its tied to.

Really a very smooth update (for most of us) ! Great that it worked out without a client update! That also prevented the usual lag between iOS and Android. I guess it won't be possible to always do the updates like that, but it would be great!
Thanks a lot for the bigger inventory (although you "forgot" to give us some slots for free as a friedly gift ;) ). Please consider to also increase the book of souls inventory, and/or give the keys their own place. The keys take away a lot of inventory slots that would be more important for the souls! Thanks!

Prisoner was always bugged and to me it is pretty clear that it only can become worse by making him awakenable. "Luckily" I still need to awaken 5 LoLs, so I won't be tempted to awaken any other character anyway...

I had the red blob at the achievements. This was because one of the missions did not count correctly before the update and now I could claim the rewards, as it was fixed. So check your list, if there is some mission that you completed now because of the fix. But I guess you already did that so it might be a similar problem with a mission that did not register correctly for you? I would also try to log out from the account and back in (be sure to connect your account to mail or so first!), this can help with such confused achievements and similar stuff.

I’m surprised that this update only took 30-something minutes to occur (unlike previous updates)

I had a red dot with a 2 in it. When i go into that tab, there was nothing to complete. One of my achievements was very close to "completion" though. I ran a few of those, triggered the achievement, and when i went back in i could collect it and then an additional 2 tiers after that one. Now my red dot has a 1 in it.

My only other achievement close to complete is gauntlet battles. So hopefully after gauntlet resets I will play a few and see that one trigger as well and the annoying red dot will go away.

I would recommend looking into any of the achievements that were stuck or seem to be close to complete, they may still be stuck and you need to help them trigger with a few completions.

I have now done the FULL 300 runs for the max moonchild achievement in INFERNAL dungeon. I have not seen a single hell shard drop. I am submitting a ticket to have the drop rate investigated. This is completely wrong.

125 runs with zero hell shards. I had planned to run the dungeon all day but it sounds like I should stop and wait for a dev to tell us if this is a mistake or if they intended the drop rate to be this low.

Has anyone run the cosmic or infernal dungeons since the server reboot? Just asking if the hell shards are dropping? I ran 70+ battles pre reboot with no hell shards and only one reaper talisman.

Is anyone else seeing in-game lag since the update? Mostly it is showing up when I am in my inventory screens attempting to scroll through characters and talismans.

I would also love to know what was changed when they did the reboot. Maybe someone who looks at FB or Twitter can check if they posted something there?

I checked all social networks right now and there is no word about today's reboot. Let's hope it was max awakening mats drop fix.

At least you got yours. I've force restarted multiple times and still have not received my rewards. What's worse is that even though CS responded to a ticket for the first time in months, they ignored my complaint and just offered pointless advice that never would have addressed my problem. After all that hard work to regain trust in CS they have completely lost it again (although that happened a while ago due to Ceeg's rude behaviour and refusal to actually investigate my problems).

60-70 cosmic runs and NO cyborg awakening materials... I only need one more and NOTHING
