I have like 23 armors just to level up one 👿

slim lance
#

Yer it was holding me back as well a couple weeks back. I asked here and got help on how to farm it.

I had no Idea you could get them items from doing the levels again because the game doesn't tell you.

It's just something you need to do and see for yourself.

They can only be farmed a couple times a day though the purple levels. (Around 3 times)

#

I was farming levels 106 up to 175 every day. The 3 Dragons you can kill 5 or 6 times for the drops as well... However Dragon 125 just keeps going so I farm that all the time to stock pile now that I have the equipment to farm it without any difficulties.

#

The daggers are way to OP

#

I go with wizard + someone with the daggers. That's my team

slim lance
#

I use Dagger x 2 and Wizard as well. But used Sword and Shield or Hunter before.

I only started using the wizard as the final staff and skill are really good to use.

wicked thorn
#

Very funny because u can keep stay in place just spamming skeletons while the dagger guy just hit and hit and hit and hit 🎯

slim lance
#

Interesting 🤔 I haven't done that before. I just let the Dragon bite me and knock me back.

Then it uses it's ranged attack when I got knocked back (this misses) and then I get my full HP back when I get back in range.

Then I use my dagger skills and it's dead.

#

This is my lazy method as well foxsip

In the second half life of the dragon I run and run

Yer I only rushed to get the most out of my 30 day pass.
And this game is just like Fallout shelter and some other games that I understood the method to maximise EXP gain quickly.

After this event I'll have 2851 gems and 9000 atronite. I could technically buy 500 atronite with gems, get the workstation bundle, and buy the other two crafting stations with gems. But I'm not sure if I should. I'm sure, like ESO, this game will have some black fredas deals.

#

Also, I see some of the redguard pack stuff has a timer now. Did it always? If they do packs for all of the races, I wouldn't mind saving my stuff and hoping a khajiit pack is next.

#

I will wait to see the Halloween event, Im going with 1500 gems and 5500 atronite

winged mantle
#

I've heard the premium stations are great for dynasty XP though, and that does tempt me. I have 50,000 gold stocked up, and 2000 wood, limestone and clay. If I did what I said, I'd have 5 premium stations. I could pop an XP buff and level them all up to around 15. I wonder how many dynasty levels that would get me.

foggy gale
#

That is correct. Unlike the traditional build, you can level up quickly with no exp required. Which is exactly the type of plan you have in mind. My mind is melting at how epic it’s going to be. But 50k may not be enough for all the stations. Maybe 100k? Have you checked how much it costs to level each station?

slim lance
#

That's the same plan that I will be doing when the Dynasty level increases. Sad part is I bet I could go 250 to 300 right away with what I have so if it increased by 100 levels then it would be better for myself personally LoveYou but I bet 50 will be the increase.

DuckDrink just waiting for the update to increase it and then I will get my next 30 day pass again.

Right now there is no real benefit to pay for it again with the current content.

Looking forward to the update tomorrow! OMGOMGOMGOMG

Hello, 5 days ago I had an annoying bug with my game. Currently the game crashes, the report has been in Customer Support for 5 days and no one gives me an answer. I am level 99, and I would like to recover my Account. I refuse to start from 0, because of a bug that can happen to me again

#

The bug: I sent my queen to have babies, but she had a bad reputation so she was killed. The killer attacked something empty ( my mistake for not taking a screenshot of that) The game It crashed, then when I came back in it asked me to choose a new queen. I chose the new queen, and after that it crashed constantly.

Halloween event 21 oct

winged mantle
#

My first gauntlet was not fun. Three waves to pick a buff but only ten waves for a boss. I get wiped on round 15 now and before I could make it to 75 reliably. The difficulty scales faster without giving you enough time to build up buffs, or an army of skeletons and atronachs.

#

The sheogorath packs are a nice trade off but as an experience I feel like the gauntlet isn't what it used to be.

#

Be careful with your sheogorath packs. I accidentally pressed next pack on two different instances and it goes straight to legendary instead of common.

#

I can only hope when you're opening common and hit next pack, it doesn't also go to legendary.

crude hawk
#

yeah, guantlet doesnt feel like a guantlet

winged mantle
#

It might be better if they let you pick a few buffs at the start to go in with.

crude hawk
#

and i got orc stuff at level 163 which shouldnt happen, right?

winged mantle
#

They added 50 levels but moonstone is still the best, so I'm assuming they adjusted the scale. I was getting dwarven stuff but my boxes had orc.

#

People might want to save legendary packs for around 240-250 now. I accidentally ate two of mine.

#

I got up to 3000 gems. I decided to buy the smithy, the sewing table and the workshop with gems, then bought the kitchen and oil with atronite. I thought about buying the big bundle but if they ever do release a khajiit style castle I want to have enough atronite on hand to buy it.

#

I didn't have enough gold though, so the person the other day was right. I got the kitchen, oil station, and smithy up to level 15 but the sewing table and workshop are stuck at 10.

No details at what's in it though... Guess we need to test everything again.

#

The rewards seem VERY poor as well in the pass after looking at them... Nothing in it has any value or better than what I already have.
So far very disappointing this update.

The new Halloween 🎃 look is nice though. YesYes

They should send out an in game Mail survey to get players feedback on this. That way they can get a better understanding of players feedback.

ThinkPika Well I was ready to get the 30 day pass again when this update came out, but am finding it difficult to do it this time when it's not offering anything good. DuckDrink

Resources: Have thousands already...
Equipment: Already have better... Hmmm the level 300 ice sword could be interesting on a Fire Dragon.

Gems: ok...
Legendary Heros: I mean... We already had them before and there the wrong race for my set up so tossed away like many other legendary heros. TexasTrigger

Maybe you should just add in a ticket for a legendary hero for a selected race instead.

#

Like at level 299 on the pass you get hero Ralof, who is good with melee weapon 🔪 and he comes with a bow... noted

Also, has anybody seen the Soul Gem 💎 yet? ThinkPika to bring the dead back to life.

I think I'm at castle rank 190 and my emperor's pass expires in a few minutes. I'm not sure if I want to renew or not. I love the elder scrolls but there just doesn't seem to be a ton of content for me to do. Slowly grinding out marble every day just so I can craft worse gear than what drops give me is bad for my motivation.

#

I have to level up through five levels of orc stations and dwarven stations before I get to moonstone. Soon moonstone will be dropping from the gauntlet so why is there such a marble shortage?

winged mantle
#

I have a question about shop offers. That lifesteal dagger in the shop for me is dwarven but my level is 190. If I get up a bit more, will it become moonstone or is it now hard-locked to dwarven?

#

I renewed my pass, maybe solely because of that dagger. If I can grind up some levels and get that dagger I can finally do more to farm marble.

slim lance
#

I wouldn't have gotten it if it wasn't the highest Tier weapon.

#

As for the new update on the Gauntlet going from level 100 to 20 is a lot faster to get done (I like that) and as for the new reward packs we get from beating a Boss hasn't been that bad with the items in it.

However, in regards to the amount of items we got before it was around 14 items and gold before...

Now it's around 5 to 7 (including the open packs from the Boss)

It clearly said on the updates notice there would be more not less Stare so this information is a lie.

PikaFind However, I do like the fact that it is quicker to finish, so the trade off is ok for me in that regard.

#

Has anybody gotten a SoulGem from the new packs from beating the Bosses in the Gauntlet at all? Drink

#

Btw @foggy gale did the new update fix your food bug 🪲

# obtuse shoal Adoring Fan gives gems¿ What?

Adoring Fan Farms EXP.

EXP = Extra repeatable levels when you're maxed (300)

So all the extra levels you get after 300 come with some Gem rewards and if you have the 30 day pass it's even more Gems. So for my playing style he pays for himself over time along with all the other repeatable rewards.

obtuse shoal
#

After some inactive time games turn off automatically, so you either need to pay attention to the game for a while, or use the auto clicker

In both cases it seems you can go without him

slim lance
#

ThinkPika Huh? I don't follow this.

#

I just open the game and let the Adoring Fan do his Job. ThinkPika game works perfectly fine for me.

#

I don't get the turning off? You talking about the Adoring Fan or your phone?

obtuse shoal
#

From my experience he is super slow and often stacks somewhere
Plus exp from Work Stations is incredibly low

Aka, you can't actually farm by him, cause you can't just put the game away and allow him to work/farm, as game will give you "are you still here", so you either use auto clicker (but you can make it do exactly what Fan did and it would even better), or to be near game, but from my experience you will faster grab Workstation by urself, since Fan need a lot of time to run from one to another

slim lance
#

Ah, you haven't seen my video clip then.

#

Scroll up, that's how I play with 2 of them. Been thinking of going for Three and I don't use a clicker thing. Just using what the game offers me

#

Also I have never seen this message before.

#

How's that work?

obtuse shoal
# slim lance Also I have never seen this message before.

If you not touch game for several minutes, it will turn off and give you message to reload it

Maybe it would be legit, but since you can't turn off the window, you de facto can't farm with him
You need to be near the game, and you just instead of insta click by hand, watch how he runs from station to station

slim lance
#

Have you a screen shot? I haven't seen anything like that before.

#

I go hours while at work without playing the game and just leave it open.

That's why I buy them adoring Fan people to auto collect... If the game turned off that would make them pointless if that was the case...

#

I am using an android system if that has anything to do with it?

obtuse shoal
slim lance
#

I don't get that on my phone. Maybe it's the phone I use?

obtuse shoal
#

idk, there is such a feature in the game, if they haven't changed it for Adoring Fan, it should pop up as well

Maybe you still checking your phone (or is your phone sending ghost taps into the game)?

slim lance
#

I use a Red Magic 9S Pro and all my games open up with it's gaming software.

obtuse shoal
#

That's why I stopped using him (well, and the price)

slim lance
#

That seems silly and makes him less valuable if that's the case.

I want to know if other people get this message as well.

#

I don't understand why you would even get a message like that in the first place. Are you fully updated?

#

I am from the UK, and only been playing the game from Global release. Maybe it's an old file?

obtuse shoal
slim lance
#

Oh, okay I didn't know that. Stare

obtuse shoal
#

We have the same versions of the game and it's an old feature, the fact that it doesn't work for you is strange, you either have something that gives you a tick to keep it active (a finger press or a third-party app), or with one of the patches they added that Adoring Fan doesn't shut down the game, but it's strange as it wasn't there when I tryed to use him

slim lance
#

Guess I am lucky then. Still it sounds very strange to have something like that in the game. Whats the point in having the Adoring Fan if the game stops?

#

I do have Two of them guys running around in mine?
No clue if that changes anything or not.

obtuse shoal
slim lance
#

Well the pass from 250 to 300 gives around 800 Gems.
And you do need to be at the late game yes. I mean I have been playing for 35 days now? Monday I should be at 300. Then I have 27 days to farm then.

obtuse shoal

#

I just open the game, collect resources, check if there is anything I can add to uesp, and that's it, except for events or general updates
The game really lacks a story or something like that, the missions in Shelter even had dialogues

slim lance
#

I fully agree, it seems very strange to have something like that in the game.

If I got that message then I bet I would only be around level 50 right now.

But the fact that I don't get it has resulted in me buying 2 x 30 day passes and using them Adoring Fans.

They should remove that message from the game.

slim lance
#

Maybe if they mixed in a Story from the very start while adding objectives you had to follow to progress with the story would work.

Like everybody has a panic with food being low and it's your objective to get a level 5 kitchen or something... Then the story carries on when you reach it and the story carries on.

slim lance
#

@obtuse shoal I just got my old phone and installed the game on that. I got the message asking if I was still there. BlobDrinkGulp

I really need to be able to auto mode 125 to farm marble. It's bad enough I have to keep clicking on it but I want my party to be able to tank it and heal themselves. The problem is, my current gear isn't good enough. What armor rating and damage rating do I need to auto the 125 dragon?

#

My armor isn't the best. The level 10 dawnguard armor. But it has a higher armor rating than level 6 dwarven so I thought that it should still be ok. My blade of woe is at level 8 and does 61 damage, but even on a mighty, reckless and devious fighter it doesn't do enough damage to overheal the dragon's damage.

#

At the moment, the dagger in the shop is still dwarven. I don't think I'll be able to level up fast enough to get it to moonstone. But even if I bought it, I can't craft dwarven, and based on my test with another enchanted dwarven dagger, at the max level I can reach it would actually be doing less damage than the blade of woe currently does. So buying that dagger won't help me farm marble.

slim lance
#

Armour value around 120+ should do the trick as long as you have the life steel Daggers 40%

I had a Silver dagger Ice skill

And the Orc dagger, confused on hit skill.

My current set up is 2 Moonstone daggers with the throwing fire skill and Boom! You just nuke the dragon ☠️ 🪦 👻 Super Effective

winged mantle
#

I'm a long way away from 120 armor. It takes eleven silver plate to level the dawnguard up further. I can't craft orc or dwarven.

Well, I was wanting a way to auto 125 to get marble easier. I hit level 215 and bought two of those lifesteal moonstone daggers, and then opened up the 37 legendary packs I had. I pulled two razum'dars, who have legendary moonstone daggers and legendary shock resistance mail.

I fed the daggers into the lifesteal ones, so they're level 8 now, and leveled up their shock resistance mail. I'm going to hope that the two of them can auto the dragon now.

I think going forward I may start saving legendary packs again. Eventually they'll add ebony or daedric. Something.

ThinkPika Reading other players bugs in the game is really strange at how and why it's happening... We all have the same downloaded file right?

But the game seems to play differently for many of us. So strange PikaFind maybe there are different versions for the country's?

Maybe older versions have some older files still in them before a new clean version was fully released perhaps? (No idea)

In regards to normal workers, gear is what matters and will result in your building being at the Outstanding production.

I do find that if you don't want any problems with workers fighting or blaming each other to do the following.

Example: married couple working on food (green class) with the live longer trait or leader.

Note: if you use leader with other people helping in the building, this will result in problems... But if you only set 2 married people to a building there will never be any negative fights or problems as married couples don't end up with negative blaming games.

You will end up with only free rewards from them if you play this way.

There is no benefit in holding that many people unless you enjoy the challenge of staying alive. The rewards you get from their deaths is not worth the wait. Trust me.

Boring events, I expected something better...

crude hawk
#

all the events are pretty similar

#

weekday event are to craft a bunch of stuff, weekend ones are battles for atronite

slim lance
#

The main problem with the event is that it's only targeted at new to mid-rage players.

Anybody who is past Silver up to MoonStone just breeze though the events and it's done within 15 - 20 minutes.

Rather than stopping at 15 event missions, push it to 30 (30 needing MoonStone)

This would help to push players to then look at options like spending their gems or event points to try and push themselves or even spend money 💰 (What the company should be trying to get players to do)

I mean... Will it remain the same when we are like on Tier 10 equipment? Still getting easy events from Iron to silver. PikaFind I really hope not. CookieTime

The Gauntlet event was fun (old version) but it did take up a good chunk of time when you had to run it 3 to 4 times. Taking around 30 minutes to finish up to wave 100+ (some players I seen reach 300+)
So the time to finish can be repetitive doing it for that long daily.

The way it is now is short and sweet with 1/10 of the equipment rewards. So upgrading equipment for the newer players is very slow now to the one who got months to farm it and upgrade their gears to max levels.

I think the Gauntlet is fine, and the event needs to be aimed more for high players as well. But also the game needs something new more than anything to make it more engaging with the combat side of things.

Maybe different daily dungeon runs that open on different days giving you different Rewards.

One player suggested a new building to allow players to equip artifacts or rings for extra stats. I love this Idea personally and would make a nice impact on the game.

Yer I know 😂 My buildings are left at level 15, so getting moonstone materials should be a no, no but with the moonstone equipment giving it you for free from crafting Tiers 1 materials it's so broken and funny at the same time.
This game has a lot of bad loop holes in it right now, but if they only release updates every 2 months then it's not likely that they care very much to the game's balance for the end game.

As we have seen, the gameplay and events target new to mid range players from Iron to Silver Tier and after that it then falls apart with the many loop holes in the game.

480 thousand Wood 🪵🪓 🤣 I mean... Couple more weeks and at 999 thousand. EUPH_painbangin

# wicked thorn Why you'll keep giving orcs and other races

They give you the races that are linked with the game's current ruling in the game to give you positive and negative results.

Example: Orks are always having fights or passing funerals.

So they force on giving you that race as it's currently in the game as a ruling to affect you.

If you have no Orks then you can always tax them and get free gold with no negative effect Drink

When they make and add more rulings for High Elves they will give you more of them so it links with the other content.

Scripting in new rulings is an easy Job and making up some new ones to add is a day's job for them.

Thing is, I know how games normally work. You refund purchases, you can get your account flagged or banned.

#

We paid $15 after taxes for 30 days. Now, people can spend $20 for 365 days. That's quite the difference.

#

Well, I filed for the refund. If I get banned I guess I'll just stop playing. I told support directly however that I hope I don't get banned and that my aim is to purchase the new year-long pass.

#

Well I would have to agree... And fully understand. There is very little to this game compared to Fallout Shelter that gave you hundreds of hours getting everybody with 10 Special stats.
I am a little angry at the fact they released a yearly pass without some type of free upgrade. Even if it was half a year it would be nice and keep players happy and to continue supporting it.
I have already supported the game more than what the content has to offer here. Could have gotten a full price game for what's gone into this. DuckDrink

winged mantle
#

All I know is at the very least I want them to release packs for the other races. Redguards are cool and Hammerfell is where TES VI most likely takes place, but apparently Redguard packs have been around for a very long time if you count early access.

#

I'd have thought, given every race has fans, they'd have released themed castles for all of the provinces.

#

Apple did approve of my refund request, by the way. It's still processing though. I haven't received my money and in game my emperor's pass is still active. I'm still hoping they don't ban me. Some mobile games do not appreciate chargebacks and refunds.

#

I hope to buy the $20 year pass as soon as I can. But the game really should have treated its existing customers better. That was honestly a very bad look. We paid $15 for 30 days and then they decide to sell 365 days for $20? Without giving us an upgrade option or giving us a courtesy upgrade?

Annoying. Bethesda support got back to me and said I should not pursue a refund, and that they would like to upgrade my pass to 365 days.

But I had already filed the refund request, which was approved. Because Bethesda support originally told me to do that.

#

Ultimately I could have actually saved $7 if I didn't process the refund, but it is what it is. I'm still worried my account will get banned once the refund processes. I'm trying to get assurances that nothing bad will happen.

#

I just know many mobile games do ban accounts for chargebacks, because no company likes dealing with the processing fees.

#

They assured me that refunds through official channels are fine. They implied that chargebacks done through your bank is what would get an account flagged.

I'm still optimistic that eventually they'll replace the redguard packs with another race. I'd like argonian or khajiit packs.

# clever solstice What determines what the packs contains, material wise? I'm still getting linen ...

Moonstone is unlocked at level 190 Battle Equipment and Crafting equipment is unlocked at 210 I think.

You can leave your crafting buildings at level 15 so your daily Order quests are easy to finish.

As soon as you upgrade the Workshop, Sewing Table or Smithy above 15 you will be in Tier 4 then and need rare materials to craft the items.

The only one I would suggest is the Smithy at 17 for crafting Daggers but that's up to you.

I have 30 of each Silver Tier item's crafted (from all three) so when I get an Order I can go click, click, click and finish them right away and then watch an add to refresh and finish the next 7. (If possible) If it needs any Tier 4 items (from my level 17 Smithy) I just remove it and it goes on cooldown for 1 hour.

But yer, am at half a million gold right now so orders don't really interest me at my point now. CookieTime

i wonder, how we can upgrade the weapons and the whole equipment of our citizens from green to gold/yellow and add new traits?

#

is only possible to unlock in lootboxes an by playing the story?

slim lance
#

Breeding will get you legendary heros over time... The hard part is getting the correct traits for the Legendary hero. So you need to combine the two people making the baby with the traits you want.

Example: I use Leader and Endurance traits for all my workers.

So when you have for example.
1st breeder with leader and endurance
2nd breeder with the same traits, leader and endurance.

You are likely to get a baby with a leader and endurance trait.

Then you have the random chance of getting a new trait or even two or if super lucky three resulting in a legendary hero.

This make sense?
You can view my breeding example here as well #1297535200535904297

#

As for the equipment you just get better the higher your level is. 190 for Tier 5 Moonstone and 210 for MoonStone crafting equipment.

#

I've just come to the conclusion that traits don't matter.

#

Maybe for rulers? But with my best gear, my mighty and devious Razum'dars could clear 125 in 13 seconds. Two random perceptive fighters cleared it in 16 with the same gear. Am I going to lose sleep over three seconds? I don't think so.

So many people flood their castles with 200 kids and then they run into food problems. I settle for single traits. That's more than enough for me. Mighty. Perceptive. Considerate. Things like that.

When your player level increases, so do the items you get from the Gauntlet packs, common packs and legendary packs.

All you need to do is open them for better equipment.

You can get 40% life steel Daggers from the offers that pop up in the shop.

Example: you might see a chief for 500 Green Gems, but he is carrying a Legendary Dagger 🗡️ with 40% life steel. You want this or you get lucky and get it out of a pack.

I got a "Blade Of Woe" that was a Tier 4 item and I did level my Smithy to 17 so that I could craft daggers to get it up a couple more levels.

However, this was when I was trying to aim higher in the Gauntlet levels when I pushed to level 100.
The gauntlet has been changed and now the aim is to reach level 20.

I get lots of moonstone stuff just from packs and playing the Gauntlet. My Smithy is still 17 and my workshop and sewing are still 15 for easy daily Rulings.

Is the Adoring Fan worth it at higher levels?

I'm on Dynasty level 169 and one Adoring Fan feels like he's too slow to claim resources. I end up just claiming them myself anyway.

More than one Adoring Fan (not sure if you can get more than 1) on the other hand seems like a waste of gems especially since they don't bypass the AFK check too unlike in Fallout shelter where the Mister Gutsy bots will just keep collecting if you leave the game on.

Is it better to just save up my gems for other stuff?

tidal minnow
#

I've read (above) that 3 adoring fans is good for XP farming, but other than that they're to slow to be of much use. Also, yes, you have to figure out how to get your phone to not shut down. I can do 10 minutes on mine with "face recognition" keeping it open before it tries to go to sleep if I haven't touched it. The game active lock works to keep it from the 2 minute message (in game). Samsung Galaxy S23 ultra. I just realized I'm punching "way above" my weight class, apparently. lvl 121 (was 109 when I got to 127 on the map). I was cold stopped on 127 pretty hard. Checked with the map and it recomends Orichalcum lvl 5 gear. I'm still on silver. Looks like it's time to upgrade some furnaces...

#

Also, apparently, the Gold level guy I have at lvl 145 has the "farming dagger" (40% health restore), So I am considering unlocking (no FTP! EGADS!) if I haven't gotten one before then.

#

It's Orichalcum, not dwarven, though. So I imagine that might be not worth it.

# zenith parcel Is the Adoring Fan worth it at higher levels? I'm on Dynasty level 169 and one ...

Yes you can 3 or 4 Adoring Fans, but I would only recommend them if your phone stays active.

The game is actually pretty respectful of breaks. Time will pass and count towards that stuff but otherwise it does leave you in a similar place where you left off. I really like that. I’m not sure how it’ll respond though with very long breaks like in months if your entire pop can age and dies naturally or something.

#

Anyways, has anyone had luck with deploying archers in combat? So far it seems like a complete loss of dps compared to melee.

# clever solstice Ah yeah i did have a silver dagger like that. I'm curious why they say stop smit...

They say to stop smithy at 17 so that you don't get Orders for higher level gear. Even 17 is a pain to farm enough Corundum to make things for those. You'll get higher level gear from packs and eventually (if I read it right) you'll get moonstone gear after you hit level 200 in packs. The other reason for 17 is so you can drop the blades of woe on a hireling for gems? They make things go a lot faster (farming wise) because you rarely have to heal up, if ever.

You need the orcish smithy for lvling gear, im 3rd at gauntlet atm. Not including cheaters. The workshop and cloth should indeed stay on 15 orso

Does anyone know what castle reset actually does? Reset the castle to just a throne room and no upgrades but returns them to the inventory list if you've built them? Resets everything? Resets all the items in your castle (cleans up, but again returns them to inventory)?

When you have a Ruler change, does it reset all the "royal" blood back to basics? I ask because I had married out everyone, save 2 commoners. And then the queen died, replaced by a 7 year old kid, and now I've got 40+ commoners. Everyone's still married, and I do have some royals, but it was around 70+ before and now it's closer to 40. Just wondering if it is a bug or if it has to do with the royal ascension.

What do you guys think they could improve in the elder scrolls castles currently with all the updates?

tidal minnow
#

Well, don't put in updates that can't be done like this baby boom one: of you've a full castle, you can't build rooms /decorations or add people (though the latter is easier, the former is impossible).

winged mantle
#

I'm afraid I've finally stopped logging in every day. The game really needs gear above moonstone and some new form of content.

#

I guess they got my money already. I bought one of the $15 monthly emperor passes, and then bought the yearly one after the change. But I wanted to like this game so much more than I did. The fact that we still only have Redguard packs is strange to me. I really thought they'd have packs and themed castles for all of the races.

#

I wanted an Argonian or a Khajiit castle.

Interesting, I just typed a whole response to you @winged mantle about that without a single swear word and the bot told me to “watch my language” and erased everything I had just said. Well the mods can read it and see that the only thing I did was say that Bethesda needs to take a leaf from other games pages and offer us quality, meaningful updates.

#

I have no idea what I could’ve said that required a bot to tell me to watch my language. I guess I’m done with this chat.

winged mantle
#

All I know is that what it has right now isn't sustainable. What enjoyment am I supposed to have? Watching numbers go up?

#

I have a level 20 lifesteal moonstone dagger with a level 20 +30% dagger plate. I see no reason to keep upgrading it, endlessly, forever. Sure, maybe one day I'd be able to get tier 30 in the gauntlet, but... why would I need to? If I already have great gear, why do I even care about sheogorath packs? Every station is maxed out. I'm sitting on a large pile of treasure.

#

And because of the way the game is designed, people who do keep earning packs will have like 200+ to open the minute a new tier of gear gets added, so the problem will repeat itself. People will instantly have the best gear and be bored for another four months.

and the new update killed the farming for corundum.... game sucks even more now

I should have stockpiled more, but given my previous comments it probably won't be an issue for me much longer.

#

Well I just discovered that Bethesda has taken away the ability to farm any of the battles for corundum beyond 3x. They just don’t appear to ever think things through for what QOL is for players. Now it could take a month to make an upgrade on one piece of moonstone gear. So no more level 99 or 125 for corundum. RIP. One more nail in the coffin on what could’ve been a nice game. Way to go devs! Take away the one thing anyone is hanging on for right now and don’t give us any meaningful updates. But hey, we have snow, there’s always that. way to go!

deep patio
#

It would be great if they could bring back the ability to farm 99 and 125. That would go a long way for many players like myself I imagine. But faced with not being able to level a moonstone weapon or armor every few days because of endless waits for corundum, many of us will leave.

#

There already isn’t anything interesting to do other than wait for the possibility of a meaningful update. Snow is not that.

It's a continual improvement game, and the latest update removed the ability to continually improve end game gear. That's a big "ouch" to the game's future that needs rectification. How does one play a C.I.G. without the ability to continually improve? The constructive suggestion is that you somehow re-implement the ability to grind conundrum/ materials for end game gear. So I most humbly request you do so, on my knees begging, in the friendliest of manners possible. That my real money investment might not be a total waste, I appreciate you taking the time to consider the limits the last update has imposed on the fun and friendly atmosphere.

After seeing this and how broken / unfair this is made me stop playing until something interesting happens.

Fed up with all the events being targeted at Tiers 1 to 3 as well Iron to Silver mainly. No moonstone difficulties at all.

I shall for stall my return... and thus return in a year to see if they have increased storage size, weapon Tier, challenging events, something interesting to do at end game, fixed the hero's from being immortal...

Really needs a new element to farm and keep players engaged like the SPECIAL stats in fallout having everybody at max Special, but in here maybe a boost to combat stats would be a good starting point.

crude hawk
#

easy solution, swap out the gold in the guantlet and shogo packs for corundum/silk

deep patio
#

I feel that the new update has some good things going on: the replay dungeon option and quick play option. But if we cannot farm level 99 and 125 for corundum, what is the point? Please bring back the ability to farm these levels Bethesda. Giving us 200 corundum was a nice olive branch but it will only go so far bc then it will be gone.

Also, all of your events “rewards” should be leveled to the player level. So instead of me getting, say IRON DAGGERS as a “reward”, I should be getting moonstone. Having the soul stealer silver dagger event was fab when I was still using STEEL gear, but for goodness sake, level these events as why would I need ANOTHER silver soul stealer when I am using level 16 moonstone daggers?

Being able to see our friends’ castles is not an interesting or meaningful update.

If you make meaningful changes like that, and add things such as the ability to have perhaps 3 v 3 PvP in some form, adding more levels to the dungeons and allowing us to farm those two levels (99 and 125) you will continue to keep your player base and add to it. As of now, I am barely playing except to get my gauntlets done for the packs I am saving until level 260 and in hopes of there being a meaningful update.

Otherwise, I see this as a game that will have no staying power. Bethesda never took the ability to replay over and over again the Abyss levels in ES Blades. Why would you do this in Castles?

Castles was released as a game with a new way at looking at playing an Elder Scrolls game - without much in the form of the typical exploration. And although such a perspective may not be for everyone, it has managed to peak enough interest to create a player base.
In order to maintain that player base and possibly expand that base into a greater number, there needs to be more content. More elements to play with and a game mode or two which brings merit and purpose to stockpiling hundreds of thousands of gold and other resources.
It’s easy to compare this game to others in the series but as it’s clear this game is meant to be a new angle, it’s clear the concepts are going to be different and thus, expectations will not be set in stone as much as perhaps TES: IV will be(whenever it may be released). That is not to say the players do not have meaningful critique to offer.
I’m sure anyone could make suggestions about content, game modes such as PvP and other ideas which could expand the game into more.
After all, monetisation is needed to keep mobile games afloat but if there’s little to no reason to add more 0’s to our resource total, there is no need for an endgame player to spend.
A new player may be enticed by such content and wish to use the chance to catch up to others, but the endgame, and all the events along the way, are short lived, offering little to no challenge to end game players.
Perhaps it is time for elven armour, glass, ebony etc. Perhaps it is time for more stage battles, with some actual challenge objectives, dragons that are actual boss battles, PvP etc.
This seems the natural way to go but when people reach that tier and max it, what then? Combining enchantments, adding more conjuring staves etc? There’s plenty options and I am one to hope that the turn of the new year could be the turn of a new leaf with the game and an eye opener on the potential it can offer.
Without something to play for, players simply won’t play and spenders won’t spend.

New update today 12/15. Now we can farm a little conundrum each day, which is good for end gamers (still less than 30/ 6 items worth). Hoping these change every day, so there's a little variety to the farming.

# wise lark not good for end gamers :/ 30 a day is less then one upgrade per day of an endga...

It is better than "no corundrum" but it's pretty far from "being able to farm as much as you want if you put in the time". They don't appear to change every day (same ones today as yesterday). And my lower level ones didn't repeat 3x today for some reason. I did them all yesterday at the same time, so I don't think it was "time related" as far as why they didn't give me 3 runs with rewards.

I honestly have nothing to do in this game anymore. Its end game content falls hard. They seem to only focus on Iron to Silver Tier mainly with an odd Tier 4 weapon maybe 1 time a month.

Not only that but the storage limit 🚨 needs increased and the huge big yearly rewards have no space to be placed. (We need another building for decorating to store our oversized rewards in)

Please focus on late game content and upgrades WE NEED IT NOW! in fact we needed it a couple months back but was ignored because maybe only 5% of players have reached this point.

Unused npc over-population has caused lagging in my game to the point i cannot play consistently without it crashing. I have a very modern phone so i know it's not a technology issue as it only happens for this app.

New gear set in the shop, named "From-Deepest-Fathoms" costs 400 Atronite and gives a pair of legendary items named Fathom's Vest and Fathom's Saw for use in the Workshop. The item descriptions say that the Vest and Saw "Randomly provides bonus Ingots at the Workshop". But they don't give ANY bonus ingots at all. I have a bunch of spare Atronite so I bought four sets and equipped all of the workers in one of my Elven Workshops with these sets and then crafted multiple different items for testing and none of them gave any bonus ingots. Other rare, epic, and legendary vests and saws do give bonus ingots so it just appears to be a problem with the way these are supposed to give "random" ingots.

I don't see any way to submit a support ticket for the game so I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.

I never get invested in my people, because their clothes are what is important. I can replace them a hundred times over and and just give their clothes to the next person.

But didn't Fallout Shelter have SPECIAL on your dwellers? You would invest time to your favorites, so if something happened to them, you cared a whole lot more. The traits we get in Castles just aren't the same thing. They don't have that much of an impact. Even when I played the game hardcore, I never cared about trait optimization.

It's a very "mobile" game, if you're a fan of mobile games, you'll enjoy Castles for a while at least

Castles seems to be focused purely on mobile players, meaning if you're just a fan of the series and don't have a taste for obscure mobile gaming, the game has nothing to offer you, and even on the contrary it may be quite frustrating and conceited

The game has really good potential, but many aspects have been cut or unfinished for the sake of "mobile", it's sad, but it's a business... lord business... "mobile" gaming business¿

It is an interactive story that is written in real time. The idea is to form a community, which will influence the story with a large H. More precisely, the polls will have places on social networks (X, Instagram and TikTok) and according to thosehere, the characters and the functioning of the castle as a whole will be impacted. ⏳

I have no merchandising, nor any way to perceive anything, it is simply a personal initiative that would need some visibility by sharing the content in order to continue this epic. 🤝🏼

I'm not initially a fan of "mobile" games, but even if we close eyes on it

Playing since game launch... probably ~4/10; ||Though, tbh at release, I would prob give the game maybe even ~7/10 just for how absurdly and funny it was at launch, and due to how I believed/assumed a different course of the project||
The game just feels like it's still in early access, aka work in progress rather than a properly released project

Plus, I don't like a lot of the developer's decisions, but it all seems to be aimed at the "mobile player", which I am not
So, this could also be mine misconception since I'm just documenting this game on UESP and I'm just fatigued with some inconsistency and developer choices, while some average real mobile player would prob rate this game on ~~...~8/10 or better¿

Has Bethesda already abandoned this game since the last update was the Halloween update last year and since then, there hasn't even been any hints about a new update?

# modern gyro Has Bethesda already abandoned this game since the last update was the Halloween...

It seems that they forgot to announce Updates in Discord, but they still update twitter seems

After Halloween, there were 3 major patches, but all related to Events, namely: Christmas and New Year's Update; Dwemer Update; and the current Imperial Update

Of course, this affects not only Events, but also adds a bunch of derivative things, but most of them are de facto made around the Events theme, while old things like Gauntlet or the Rulings system have been indeed unchanged for quite time now

#

Most of past things are documented in one or another format on UESP, so you can compare what you've missed

Oh okay thanks, I don't use twitter, but I'll check UESP

Speaking of events, this newest one, the Imperial Curator, I never got the ruling. The “Learn about the Imperial Curator” one.

I’ve done almost all of it and I’m wondering if I can even complete it. Just have to do the orders yet so I guess we’ll see if it appears after.

Also having issues with the “build the rooms” and staircase ones but those are optional so I’m not 100% worried yet.

I actually have the same issue. Maybe it has a low chance of triggering, but every other challenge is done, except for the ruling.

#

I have quite assumption that it's bug and why it happens, but I can't verify it for sure so far

Last time when exactly this Event was bugged (but it was different bug), they didn't fix it (well, they fix it, but when Event ended) but they gave all players Dwemer Packs
Perhaps this time they also gave some excuse gift, if enough player say about this problem

I wish there were family trees. So I could see the development of the royal family. Also as my OGs are starting to die out, it would be nice to be able to trace back how large the castle has grown since them.

I forget, how do I work towards obtaining a noble male Breton with the charming, tribal, and leader traits?

obtuse shoal
#

Random, you make babies with parents (one of which ruler, both Bretons) who have these traits and hope that one day they create such baby

Then you force your Ruler to be killed via Rulings, and make this baby a ruler

Yo , so have to give a shoutout to whomever developed this system :

my busy season is Jan-June, so havnt really played since then

Came back, castle was the same, but all my castle peeps were basically descendants of my toons when I left- more or less the same ages, gear, attributes etc just not married and no children and I was 3 kings\queens later

Really great way to address breaks from a game

deft cloak
#

Do they have a general Dev Roadmap at all for this game anywhere?

obtuse shoal
#

No, but we probably won't get a lot, probably all the updates will be related to Events, so it all depends on the rotation, 1 theme for about 2~2.5 months
How many old themes will there be between the new ones¿ we don't know

I think when they release all the planned themes, the game will go into a state of tes Blades or Legends (until closure), when all events in the game automatically rotate in a circle and the game runs while it pays off its servers

#

The only news about the game are rare inserts in the descriptions of updates on google play where it simply says alike

New events soon

deft cloak
#

I don't expect much tbf. which is a shame because I quite like the base they have on this.

#

but I imagine its a smaller team with not allot of priority... given its a phone game... and an offshoot of Fallout shelters.

neon valve
#

yeah, this seems to be the pattern\plan from Bethesda on their mobile stuff - which is really a shame

tepid sable

I was not prepared for the Adoring Fan and his fabulous trail of golden sparkles as he runs around my castle collecting resources for me.

deft cloak
#

I mean bethesda overall release and run. I have my qualms and unpopular opinions but I get moddable games with cat n lizard people in them

Im tryna get my head around the team size n resource to understand if there is any scope to push for consumer feedback based enhancements (within reason)

Or if castles is just dead. Id hope theres chance to squeeze a bit more out of it before its kinda dead in the wind. Wouldnt mind it for an offline game with moddability but phone game exists to farm a poorly regulated phone market.

#

Blades for instance seems fully dead cant even get it on later android devices castles had the imperial update a lil while ago.

And honestly if they can do am event for each culture type generic as it can be. Shove a few things to enhance the experiance here and there it could atleast be a complete dead game on a loop of event content.

Is nice for idle gaming. Just needs sooome fine tuning I think.

#

Oh quick question? Anyone used the soul stone to keep an elderly person alive after they age so hard they die?

Does it just kinda literally rez them into a pool of could just die any second now? Or does it gice them a sorta grace period of like 5-10 years of prolonged existing?

Makes sense. with castles I imagine that means we could still see a good several cultures come out.. becomes a game of collecting outfit skins then. I can just hope for some small feature changes- I don't personally mind Castles in its current state?

I have been locked to phone games allot more these days.. so I've got a pretty low 'bar' for quality expectations. but Castles does what Castles needs to do nicely. would just be nice to have a bit more 'player control' over building up your castle n subjects..

I've done some of my own little things.

Like I use bookshelves and eateries to make other stations. I have a 'Wizards tower' which is where all the magical artficats go. a eaty-table ad abookshelf. the eaty-table houses 3 random mages and the bookshelves house a subject in the Dwarven Kings outfit who is my 'artifact study' and a guy in the red oldman robes as my 'expert on magic things'

throwing some bookshelves up around my throne room for key 'nobles' will be stationed. and an eatery under my nobles 'bedchambers' for the heir apparent and 2 more select nobles (I also like to use the Imperial kings attire for them)

I am mostly Content with my castle and subject set up. I'm collecting skins. setting up uniforms for my workers, diversifying the non-used uniform outfits to dress up my unassigned conga-line.

But would be nice to have some things I suggested in the feedback thing.

Think my main one being the ability to.. y'know.. re-roll traits. Legendary subjects are often more a hinderance then a benefit due to 5 traits = a higher chance for Crap ones to ruin purpose

For me -
Haunted, Heartless, Bossy, Melodramatic = no worker
envious = only one per workstation
Reckless = no warrior

...so when I have like... 70 Subjects with otherwise excellent traits.. all haunted its kinda a 'welp' moment.

Also.. re-colouring or skinning gear to lower tiers. OR turning the armour/weapon event stuff into skins ...

#

I like red. I got an army of red. but now all the event drops are moonstone. I don't want moonstone armour. Weapons and tools.. meh. whatevs.

...maybe less 'Let me be king' rulings. I had a 87 year old dude, With no friends, 2 enemies, and the traits 'haunted, heartless' decide he'd make a better king

kinda sucks that I get to turn 5-9 people a day into the potential hier enemy.

obtuse shoal
#

Many decisions were re/made to something minor, or even canceled to be updated at all

Like Rulings, or tasks, or workstation, or <put any Castles feature outside of Events related>
And if they do receive updates, it's barely something to expand the patch notes

neon valve
#

Yeah it’s a real shame because I want Castles to thrive the way other mobile games have made billions but mobile seems to be a side gig for them

neon valve
#

i wonder too if they didnt get burned by Blade

#

Blade was very niche and I played and tested it early

#

but it never got traction

#

but they tried and tried and tried

obtuse shoal
#

Blades has very good mechanics for a mobile rpg, but a lot of decisions were aimed purely at mobile whales, plus a generally difficult attitude from the media at the time... which led to the fact that instead of interesting gameplay decisions, Blades is remembered for "timers on chests"

On the other hand, as I heard that full-fledged projects do very poorly on the mobile market, so it's hard to say whether it would have been better if they had made a complete one-time-purchase RPG

I have left a space in my castle for a dtagin lair if they ever add it xD

obtuse shoal
#

With skins, as with character models in general, the problem is to make "neutral" images, to make further icons as well

The best ones so far are their in-store look, aka the monochromatic background, and the look of the gear on the mannequins, but it's random and I have no idea how to do the same with Skins, outside of these microscopic windows during selection

#

In fact, Castles is probably the worst documented game on UESP at the moment, and I'm not sure if I can improve it at all

deft cloak
#

I love your attention to neutral reference imagery.

Its hard to elsewise imagine whata missing from the wiki that you can attain.

#

I have every skin for imperial event half the redguard and dwarf skins i could make one of each in the most basic level take a picture of each skin on a generic dude. Of each race or gender or just rando guy

Only one variation worth noting so far ive seen is the royal dwarven kingy outfit. The faceplate is removed for argonians and khajeet.
Kinda wish all the heavy armour sets did that tbh. Argonians have squished looking helms

#

Out of curiosity how much kitchen power do you have to maintain a pop of 200?

I gooot..

#

Level 30 royal n 2 level 21 basics n I had to do some banishments at 190 subjects down to 180

#

Armour skins I have the imperial ones in.. red some of the redguard stuff but I hit moonstone so im getting stuck with those skins now

obtuse shoal
#

I just need to crop them into icons, which is quite strange, why this isn't done in the game, as in-hand gear has sprites, but body equipment doesn't, even though the game is super fixed, and for mannequins this could be done with sprites, not models, which also take a couple of seconds to load before appearing for me

Your best place of info is ~~patch notes, since in patch 1.7.3 it was stated

Look for additional Castles themes and events, coming soon.
Potentially it may also mean re-runs, aka vague way of wording, but it was closest to at least anything towards future updates; but you can't see it anymore in newest patch notes, despite there were no themes updates between

They have an extra update channel on discord https://discord.com/channels/784542837596225567/1200163014356238396, but for any reason it was abandoned year before; second place is social medias (twitter/inst) but they as well abandoned since last big update

However the last direct words from developers were before the Halloween series, where they gave compensation for a broken event in game, with extra message towards it, which is uncommon, since it was probably 3rd or 4th appearing of this event in broken state and they didn't mention problem before

So yeah, unless extra words in patch notes, or some in-game message... there's no place of news currently

I think you shouldn't expect anything for the next ~month more, cause there is currently an Imperial theme re-run going on (for minimum 25 more days); And after that, there should be Christmas & New Year's events

The only extra option is the neutral Theme, which is de jure in the game, but which we haven't seen in a very long time, in which case you shouldn't expect anything until the end of February

So the new Event theme (not even new content in terms of stuff not related to events) may be released in early January <~> late February; BUT, if after that they gonna re-run Redguards again (instead of update)... it means that the game in tesBlades state and we should not expect anything on future

Fun fact; deafault theme is semi Imperial (cause according to the description it is both Imperial and Breton)

But before the theme system, it was meant to be fully Imperial; my assumption that the Imperial theme as separet was added for the Oblivion Remaster release, considering the 1 day difference in launch date
This may also explain the atypical decision regarding style of armor and castle

It seems that there will be no more updates to the game... unfortunately

They just announced a re-run of Redguards, which essentially brings us into the circle of themes (Redguard > Dwemer > Imperial); I highly doubt they will add updates after Redguards, and even if we hope that they just want to do two full circles, it will still take more than half a year

Castles was only globally released in 2024. For it to be seemingly abandoned so quickly is very disheartening

Just been 2 months waiting for my support ticket and still no response

#

I hope no one else gets an issue with their game

# surreal mulch What's your ticket number?

If you are responsible for the response I had yesterday, I greatly appreciate it. Even though it wasn’t particularly helpful but it is atleast the first step to a solution.

This would be a great time for an Orc theme to come.

I think the game is in a state of tes Blades, in ~1.5 months there will be a moment when we won't receive any valid updates in a year

do castles have like in shelter you can send out citizens to explore and get weapons and clothing?

Its more like Shelter Online

Now I might be huffing some major copium. But the last couple updates are 1.7.X. With last month’s being 1.7.9. Mayhaps we are due an update?

#

What do you guys think?

The 3rd number is a minor updates (conditional; when they need tp push them via Play Market and not silently via data); tesBlades also constantly receives minor ones for security patches or icon replacements, etc

My current assumption is that all development has been switched to Shelter, as it has now started receiving updates again due to the TV series; and in just over a month, it will have been a year without any actual updates for Castles

Why dwarven bundle don't drop dwarven skins? 😭

#

Im missing the workshop and the blacksmith ones

#

I think i need to buy dwarven themed castle before skin drops :0

#

You can't get 2 skins, as they were sold separately in bundles

After they changed Store rotation pattern old bundles stopped appear, and they never bother to fix it

Hey 👋 new castle themes when?? Id buy one im just not a fan of the current themes. Id like nordic or orcish themes please 🙏 nordic is probably conceptually easiest to implement design wise.

There haven't been any major updates for over a year; the only hope is that it will turn out like Shelter
Aka there is going to be an update leading up to some other major release

But I find that unlikely, given how inconsistent the game was left in; it needs a complete overhaul
