It’s back but I’m afraid to use it...
I lost some alchemist fragments from my first vortex. It was almost ready in prep for the event. I earned a second vortex from spending over 1500 normal souls, and a bastion and nomad, and about 25 saved 4 stars. No idols or hearts dropped for second vortex or for 4 exalted and 4 grand. Also was shorted 200 frontier coins. Should have 300.
The event is no longer up on the announcements page.
I didn’t take advantage of the bug I’m glad for those who did 👏 karma is a bitch NF pay back for the primordial event you didn’t return their money and resources I guess you’re not going to take away their gifts we are even.
For me 1100+ normal souls sacrificed got me around another 30 rare souls and 1/3 of the way round the vortex, crap loads of sot and sow, I sacrificed some 70 G/A rare souls, 100 rare souls, 2 x legendary souls the vortex starting from near zero has gone round twice already is just a hair of triggering a third time, I've had 20 skill shards a heap of sacrificial hearts and gold idols of varying worth, this punched up my gold stash by about 5 million, It rained Navigator Eddies and Nomads 2 x toons 3 months ago I had never had.
I got a myriad of 5*eddies all dupes the only thing I collected that was new was Hallowed Eddie and a Desert Marauder Gunner.
Still I am very pleased with this sac event, I was hoping for Clansman or Beast Eddie or POM but still happy, I've sharded up and finished off a few Eddies and toons and still have a stack for a future toon.
I have a new appreciation for just how "rare" they mean by rare soul of any class.... Thanks LOTB!
Thank you so much for your patience while we worked. We have successfully resolved the issue that emerged earlier this evening. The Sacrifice feature is now available, and the Gold and Crimson Sacrifice event is active once again!
This is my first posting in the forum, so hello everybody!
I really only play this game because of Iron Maiden, I don't care that much about all the bugs! You can imagine how infuriated I am to make the effort to actually write on this board!
Playing today while drinking my morning coffee, excited that the sacrifice event is finally on and I see no sacrifice button. Ok, funny joke I think. Then I see I can access the vortex from achievements tab, so I go and sacrifice almost everything and put all the stacked souls I have in the books of souls and then do some more sacrificing. Since I am still sleepy and I get some fragments as rewards I think that that is all one is gonna get.
Untill I got here and what do I see?!
I am ok with players benefiting from this bug, what is not alright that I don't have the rewards the should have been rewarded to me like idols/hearts and alchemist fragments for all the sacrifices.
There is a total screw up as there was no in-game message and 150 ironite are no compensation for that, developers will need to think of something else for players with my case!
There's one problem with that Leviathan I managed to get into sacrifice through a back door unaware there had been an issue (event) and didn't get rewarded any of the sacrificial hearts or gold idols for a months worth of saving souls though I did get a few goodies as mentioned above...
Seriously devs, you HAVE to address this issue more than just saying the event is active again.
I have actually the same problem. I saved a long time for this event and threw in a couple of 5 stars this morning. The 2 Problems i have - i ended up only 1000 essence before an ultimate sacrifice, which i didnt realize, as the number VII was not on the board and it thought it was the highest level already. Also i did not get any Hearts or Idols. I would love to take back that sacrifice if possible.
This should also be one of my first posts here but it is really weak to treat players like that in a game that is quite expensive relating the shop items to be bought.
i think i willsave my characters for next sacrifice event...
Waking up and reading through this thread makes me very angry :mad:
Maybe they should restore everything to last reset status...
The attitude of "Others got reward, I didn't, ... take theirs away!" Is what I was referring to. It's malicious toward PLAYERS and self-serving and ultimately whining about missing out. I've missed out on PLENTY that europeans get..... so that's a very poor excuse.
Wow! 100+ skill shards and 150+ million gold for free for some? Nice exploit. Too bad, I haven‘t had a chance while sleeping.
I cannot blame ppl for defending their newly obtained stuff, but missing out on this bug ruins the competitive level of this game, especially with content like Gauntlet coming up, where players who participated in the bug will be months ahead of others due to massively increased amount of characters, skills shards and gold
Yeah, I think that might be a problem. I have no problem with people keeping their stuff, but in no way you can call it a level playing field that way - especially with the Gauntlet coming up. It‘s one thing to get three or four additional talisman sets that can only be used on a couple of chars and get nerfed anyway. But to be able to max out 20 characters for free is another one.
(Personally, I did not exploit any of these bugs - of course for the reason that I haven‘t had the chance ;))
I got extra unlucky. I was waking up at the morning and did Ultimate Sacrifice and got no Crimson event bonuses at all. I should have read forum before the sacrifice. I'm not angry, just sad.
So...
Leviathan just got back to my roll back request “copy pasting” this to me:
Hello,
Thank you so much for your patience while we worked. Earlier this evening, an unforeseen issue emerged that required us to temporarily disable the Sacrifice feature.
We have successfully resolved this issue. The Sacrifice feature is now available, and the Gold and Crimson Sacrifice event is active once again! You can get all the event details in the Legacy of the Beast newsfeed.
Best regards,
Michelle
So basically a polite FU dear customer. your fault that you used a feature which wasn’t working properly and didn’t receive any event characters nor alchemist shards for sacrificing your whole arsenal of maxed characters, which you have been saving for months...
Anyone else upset about entering the sacrifice while it was screwed? ...pants down and NF will do you from behind anytime!!!
Well done once again Negative Frauds!
So you screwed all of us over with the Primordial event now anyone not on your timezone/people who work for a living/people who were asleep have been screwed over again!!
There better be a rollback on those who took advantage of this bug.
Hell, you’ve banned players for less!!
ahaha good one
I did small sacrifice at 7am (EU time) and got 2 gold (1 with 2**) & 1* heart
Fucking hell why did not I made Tier VI? ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhh
Kill me ce soir...
I have put in a request to support in a courteous manner, I expect to be paid back for my money and efforts, time etc...
Anything less may result in ramifications we'll see what's pans out...
guys,
Just one question: how do you reach a full vortex? how many 5* characters do you need?
Oh joy. I wake up to yet another cluster of mistakes by the team and again gain nothing and see others with their fabulous hoard. All down to where you live in the world again. I was awake around reset but I set up my auto to do my troopers and then go to bed! Ih how I wished I had stayed awake for an extra hour!
I have nothing against those who got their bug hoard win - all good and they did nothing wrong. But why do the rest of us lose out on a shed load of resources and th epotential to fil our missing roster spots like so many in the right parts of the workld did? No one can say this is fair or a level playing field - I agree with a few otherson here about that. Please NF try to do this the right way - every event has a mistake and these all act to divide us players up. How can you run a project like this where nothing works as intended when you do something new - do you test at all. It seems those that gained were on all sorts of platforms and OS so that was not the issue.
I am kind of annoyed but it does not really effect me in a bad way as my roster stays the same as ever - but if this game has a competitive aspect to it then this does without doubt create a have and have nots side to the equation and all through dev mistakes again.
Please consider a fix and not just a shotgun ironite to all thing as that just rubs salt into the the wound even more that many of us got nothing from this event other than the bad taste in our mouths frm yet another mistake.
Be glad you’ve missed the whole thing, mate. i and many others have only missed the good part and joined in on the bad part...
See? once the devs noticed that they have rolled out a brainless event (they call it a “bug”), they have simply made the sacrifice button disappear for the my team menu, but you could just go to the EVENT tab and click on GO and you were in sacrifice. sadly the event rewards and alchemist shards were missing at that point, so we got DOUBLE screwed up!
The devs don’t even acknowledge that and just ignore it. i have sacrificed a few months old collection of maxed chars and didn’t get any rewards...
Just to clarify that I wasn't complaining that I missed out in my earlier post. If I had been able to play I would probably have been all over it like a cheap suit. At the end of the day work comes first. What bothers me now is if Sacrifice is now working correctly? Got a fair few Souls to open which will leave me with a fair few chars to throw in the pit
By the way scott-5496 there has been a "have" and "have not" divide in this game for a long while unfortunately :(
I have a feeling once you have fullfilled all event goals, there is no more extra bonus drops.
I can, as well, confirm that after the bug “fix”, I cannot get any event rewards.So I ended up not only wasting valuable characters,and not getting, any at all,event rewards,but also those of us who have a time zone difference,are found in a huge disadvantage once again.And then we are “whining”...Yeah,thanks.
I live in the part of the world that was supposedly at the greatest advantage of this travesty of an event, I can assure you it was a very few that took full advantage of the LOTB stuff up.
I also unleashed a hoard of saved souls 5* and unearthed souls, I received virtually none of the promised rewards, oblivious to the fact there was even an issue.
I got the same dunce response from support you guys have already seen on the forums.
I have put in another request/response to my previous email.
My best hope is that as we speak the powers that be are trying to work out how to fix this mess while minimising collateral damage...
Why am I not surprised at all about what’s s going here again. I cannot remember a single thing they did not completely screw up.
Devs, don’t you think it is time for all of you to get a job that suits you? My advice, try something not related to computers. Maybe taxi driver or waiter would be a good choice. Anyway, no computers, trust me on this one.
Wow. Since this happens with every update you push, maybe you should start anticipating it, and test things first. If you can fix it in a couple hours every time, why not test it a couple hours before you push it, and then fix it before pushing it. I know, that’s crazy talk
I am not pointing fingers to my fellow players here,they did well to gain advantage of the bug,I my self would,if I had the chance, as well. The thing is that we wasted a whole stash of really hard earned resources,without even getting any hearts or idols.This is sad.Really.
When Arena Beta came out, random players got to play for weeks before other players and got to keep lots of iron coins before other players could play Arena. They didn’t get rolled back. The few who got the new Sacrifice bug, sacrificed fairly and honestly, not the players fault. When some players fairly and honestly level up a character and talismans, then the game nerfs them and they feel they wasted resources there is no compensation back to the players.
So a small percentage of overall players benefited from this bug. Overall, spotting them by other players will not be noticeable. No roll back is warranted. Otherwise every future bug or nerf players will demand a roll back. Can’t roll back for some for one situation when there’s multiple situations where a roll back is wanted.
Over the last year I got used to the fact that events start with huge fails and errors and therefore I started to skip the first day of events normally. I also got used to the fact that we here in Europe (BTW that is where Maiden comes from...) have a disadvantage because of the reset time. Right now (summer time), daily reset is at 2 o'clock at night!!
And now we have a situation that combines these problems, as events still start with huge fails but now for the second time with the benefit to the players in the first hours. Sounds good? Maybe - if you are in the US. The Primordial "bug" and now the sacrifice "bug" gave out massive loads of resources to the same player base. I read about hundres of skill shards and souls, that we players from Europe are lacking in comparison. Primordials got nerfed, but what will you do about the "local" rain of skill shards etc? Shall we hope that the US guys don't use them, or what? It's a shame!
Giving 150 Ironite to all players, including those who took advantage from these "bugs" is clearly not the way to go. This situation is created, again, because important tests were skipped obviously. I ask you, NF, how do you plan to resolve the situation and how do you plan to avoid this in future?
