Hello everyone! 

A new event is coming to the game for the most active users! There's a new mythic card - Furry Girl Moon
For new players or those who have paused - the more you play and pass content, the sooner you will get access to the various event!

Please address the issue with quest 8 ASAP.  Requires 12000 tokens to pass, but can only spend 5000 tokens on chests.  So quest is effectively a 15000 token quest, which will take >7 days to complete.  See math on the Discord server for Hooligapps.

Is this event only for money-spenders? It's impossible to pass quest 8 without money in time!

So... what if f2p players actually had any reasonable chance of making meaningful progress in this (or any) event, wouldn't that be a novel concept?

its hard  even for paying ppl , like rly hard  due to the fact that in rankings there are only BOTS , meant to give themselves  more points then you get . And if you combine that with a bad GMT, like ending the game day at 2-3 am in the night ....you are fuked even as a  p2w player , and im talking from experience here  !

That's a good one! Gamedevs corrected the mistake, now not 12000 tokens - it's 15000 for quest #8!!!
And together with the announcement of incoming global battle effects, it's a goodbye for f2p players from the Hooligart.

Check your messages.  The devs gave me (and everyone else I've talked to) +2700 tokens which puts me at 14335 at the moment, which makes the 15000 more doable. F2P should get it in a day or so.  Thanks for listening, devs!

(1 edit)

Yes I've got +2700, but that makes me only 9335 for 7 first quests. I don't get how f2p players can get 15000 in a day (having only 2 bosses until quest #9). 125*4 from bosses per day that will not make it even close to 15K from 9K+. 

Besides that's not a big difference 12K or 15K (+2700 bonus)...

Or does the 5K, spent during the tutorial, counts as well even before acquiring of the quest?

In my experience, the bonus 5000 you get in the tutorial / when the event starts, and then spend on a chest, should count.

For the quest status, I see 10000/15000 and that counts the 5000 I spent from the start of the event.

(I have about a day of grinding left to buy the third chest; I have ~14335 total and 4335 in the bank which matches your 9335 so you should also be fine)

the first 5 k does count , but the issue  is still there , you still need to grind  or buy. on a such early quest  preventing you daily rankings , all those stops preventing daily rankings are stupid in my opinion.

I think the daily ranking algorithm or the bot scores is changed and it’s much more stingy than the cow event. I wasn’t able to collect ant points at all on the first day. Where as in the cow event I somehow ranked#1 on first day.  Both time I didn’t spend $ and got stuck on the same 15000 token level.

if We can’t make much progress without breaking the bank, it’s lights out for this dev forsaken game

Both events have been virtually useless to a free user, with the bottlenecks so early in the event and no in game way to earn gems! You might as well just put the Epic cards in the store pool and charge for the Mythic cards.

Lol there's a second currency block a few levels later- after you've spent your 15000 you have to purchase 2 coffers, except the missions have only given you 8-9k worth since the spend 15000 mission, and previous purchases don't count. At least you have more rooms unlocked so this one will only take a day or so to grind out, but still, on a 7 day event anything that stalls like that is burning time, plus it's another day you can't make the rankings.

Speaking of rankings, does anyone know are we actually ranked against other players? I find it very odd that the top players always score roughly 50k and build it up evenly throughout the 24 hour period- including on the first day when all f2p players can't be doing anything at all because of the first paywall.

i messed up and got stuck on lvl 16. Opened my 4th blue coffer before lvl16 and now I’m stuck. Great job game design

Ranking lists are 100% artificial bots.  Players have compared ranking lists and they are different at same moment in time.  In game you only earn points in multiples of 5 (for example 125, or 1010 etc.).  Earlier in event rank list had "players" with odd scores like 39117 which is impossible in game.  They have "fixed" this so it's less obvious now but they are all bots.

Actually, it's not fixed. I just checked mine now and you're completely right, all of the rankings have scores not divisible by 5. well at least that means we can all be number 1 (if we pay enough to get 50k tokens per day . . .), and we know what thresholds to target: 18-20k for third tier, 33-35k for second tier, and 48-50k for first tier. If you're not going to make the next tier in a given day, you might as well stop progressing or else you'll be wasting non-re-playable missions that are your only real source of tokens . . . no way are you getting 50k from playing the rooms 4 times a day, even at high levels.

All events have 1 player(you) and rest bots that seem to be capped at 50k (so far) .After3 event testing  the  power of the bots increase very rapidly as days go by , first 1-2 days they kind of stay in the mid 20k-30k , after day 3 they go full 49.9k near the reset time.
There is no way to beat them after day 3 unless you buy the packs(intended mechanic) . Login in late  does not affect them , not doing anything in game does not affect them, nothing does , they seem to have a separate  growing system that i have not yet identified . So if you want to get top 3 you need to get 50k ranking points.
Events are so far apart and the only way to get some good cards and hope for some legendary , for f2p , adn even for p2p  after the golden box nerf , If they do not remove the bots the game will die soon , even so the community is small since they do not listen to make a balance game first that ppl will enjoy, then to try to earn some money.

Doing the new event on day 4 I went from quest 15 to 55 and still unable to maintain top 3. I did over half the content in one day and it wasn't enough. The leaderboard is too aggressive 

Agreed.  I have settled for trying to maintain silver 4-20 each day. Spread all content out across a couple days.  There's no way to beat the bots without spending gems and/or real money.

I had a pop plan today to open the gold box. For this I have to be in the top 50. For the remaining 2.5 hours I stopped playing. In the morning, I discovered that I was not in the top 50. How could this happen?

Has anyone gotten any legendary upgraded to the third tier? By my calculations, you'd have to have all the blues fully upgraded (not too hard) AND both reds upgraded once- which means at least 4 of the red chests (if you're lucky enough to get two of each). I suppose this isn't impossible- maintain silver for 3 days and grind the fourth with the tokens given from the blue chest . . . BUT, you'd also need to research 4 combos for each. with enough p2p equipment (research upgrade, 3rd slot, etc.) this might not be impossible, but remember f2p can't even get one of these cards until day 3-4 because of the first paywall block . . . A level 21 legendary card would be a wonderful backup to Emma, the game is sorely lacking tanks right now (and it'd be even better because it could combo/ has better attack), but I don't think it's possible for me. Don't get me started on 4th tier, lol.
