would be good if we could have a seasonal where u can get a decent ish pvp comm, something around 90-100 cy, 20% limit on flanks

maybe it could be in this order:
- NPC Comm
- PVP Comm
- Cast

then back to NPC comm, in that cycle. 

when I say that u do the comm twice, I do not mean that u should not be allowed to do it a second time, I mean that the whole event should not be repeated when it ends, it takes a month per one and drags out far too long. 

also it shouldn't be limited to being able to do it only twice. 

game's too pay 2 win, and I don't blame GGE as it's a business and u need to make money but I also think u should allow hard-working, active non-ruby players to have as much of a chance at getting decent pvp comms without buying rubies, although they'd have to work harder for it but it should be made possible at least. not been playing too long but that's just my opinion, correct me if I'm wrong.

Redundancy eventually at some point I am guessing will have to come, because I believe that eventually GGS will run out of good ideas for commanders and cast that are different instead of similar which may help explain why GGS may add fusions later on in the future for unique heroes from the "fusion forge". And trust me on this coming from someone who has played GGS for years that a lot of equipment GGS has moved over into the equipment trader instead of keeping it in the alliance events, but I very much so doubt there will be endless possibilities of unique cast and commanders that will stand out as "different".                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Plus, I have noticed similar sets before like the Winter Imp and Headsman Summoning commanders for example that were originally meant for level 70+ players and nine piece sets and I have so many different varieties now of unique cast and especially commanders that if GGS keeps on giving out new commanders and cast I may have to sell some unique sets despite the effort and money I spent time into getting them. Also, for pvp commanders some of them are outdated and may not necessarily be the best commanders for pvp anymore from level 70+ players even from the nine piece Lotus King and Prince of Thieves commanders or the Shadow King commander which is considerably slow in comparison to some of the other commanders with no "longer to detect" bonus while the rest for level 70+ players besides Shapeshifters GGS seems to expect you to spend money on them or like the Ivory Queen spend lots of time and commitment to getting the full set which may take years to even get the full set.

LOL Shadow King was not meant for high level players to use in PvP; there's a reason it was made to be available to low level players. For relative beginners, Shadow King set is a pretty well-rounded com, good for fake PvP (meaning invaders) once gemmed up. Personally, I'd turn it into an event-tailored com by putting three shapeshifter apprentice gems on it and another cy/front/flank gem. (which I have)
I mean, it makes sense that the Prince of Thieves is no longer a highly viable commander, being that it was released years ago. Frankly, I'm fine with grinding out shapeshifter (but for base food item, not the com. One is sufficient lol).

All these shitty updates genuinely make me want to either; quit the game or work for gge free to make sure they get sh*t right lol. I mean come on!! So many players have asked for similar stuff and the deco forge and awful coms aren't on those lists! It's honestly not difficult to make players happy. We play for a reason, we like aspects of the game. We make it pretty clear which aspects. PAY ATTENTION GGE. 

1) Introduce winning decent CASTELLANS to the monthly events. Alternate betweens coms and castellans ( i don't want 2 of the same commander every event!!)
2) Update Storm equiptment and deco, players used to love this event.
3) Replace the old honour smashing beri with a new world map where players can do pure PVP for a month. Berimold (non-green) used to be epic. OR even more simple, bring back royal capital event and include decent rewards!
4) Get rid of the forge, haven't heard of any players using it, a good deal of hard work in events now goes to earning useless catalysts etc which are just sitting there. 
5) Maybe introduce an event for the low levels (a thorn event or a beri for under 35s?) Seen so many decent players joining and then getting bored. Its because this game has taken the heart and fun out of it! 
6) Move winning ruby awards for alliances lower down the point requirement so that new alliances can develop instead of all the power going to existing alliances. LET OTHERS GROW! 
7) Please make HONOUR points more current. Used to be a huge aspect of the game in beri (non-green) and when might wasn't a thing. Lets make an event for that, its pre-existing! No need to sweat your little brains over developing a new thing. 
8) GGE if you can't come up with your own ideas make a competitions for players to make up there own events and then ACTUALLY LOOK AT THEM AND IMPLEMENT ONE! 
9) Get your support system sorted, loads of players waiting 3-4days for a response to an important FINANCIAL issue. 
10) Stop being idiots and introduce decent coms/casts again. Some great ones coming in, but whats going on with all the loot coms? This elephant com from monthly events, yeh its pretty but many cba to get it. I got it twice, now I'm bored. You've created a fantastic game but the quality is slipping. Maybe look at players ideas, they know what they want. 

REMEMBER; CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT )))

GGS already ran out of g00d ideas. They aren't even bothering with reskins at this point.

The most innovative thing they ever did is take the shapeshifter event, from what must have been their failed space game and shoehorn it in to Empire, where it makes even less sense.

And deco global system... +shapeshifters +nomads (khan) all these things, all their best things in the last 2 years.. of updates

GGS??? STOP TO LIE!! DO YOU KNOW THE MEANING OF " slightly reworked" ????????

If is not the true "Fortunes of the desert sand", give other name for him...

I will just chill this month and come back playing next month to see if there will be a better commander from monthly event. I recommend you do the same. 

DeathWalker1 (AU1)

Where is the Shapeshifter castellan that you said will be returned next update?

I have 24k charms to spend.

a lot of players would actually try in the seasonal for a pvp comm I reckon, and it's harder to get pvp comms nowadays without buying rubies or doing shapeshifters

would be better than having poor npc comms for seasonals. also imo not a good idea to have the same comm for a seasonal consecutively. as in the spring ones were each repeated twice, then the lotus - just gets boring the second time. at least the first time there's some excitement for it (debatable), doing it a second time is extremely boring.

maybe it could be in this order:
- NPC Comm
- PVP Comm
- Cast

then back to NPC comm, in that cycle. 

when I say that u do the comm twice, I do not mean that u should not be allowed to do it a second time, I mean that the whole event should not be repeated when it ends, it takes a month per one and drags out far too long. 

also it shouldn't be limited to being able to do it only twice. if people spend a lot of rubies they should be rewarded by being able to complete it unlimited times, then maybe the comm could be added soon after to equipment armourer (if it isn't already), so that people who missed out parts of the comm can buy the other parts.

game's too pay 2 win, and I don't blame GGE as it's a business and u need to make money but I also think u should allow hard-working, active non-ruby players to have as much of a chance at getting decent pvp comms without buying rubies, although they'd have to work harder for it but it should be made possible at least. not been playing too long but that's just my opinion, correct me if I'm wrong.

Ich denke auch, dass GGE uns einige PvP-Kommandeure geben sollte, ohne Rubine darauf zu geben.

Is anyone actually using the forge thingy?

I took one look at the tutorial and thought "life's too short to be bothered with that"

JYT (US1)

Yeah, I fiddled around with it a bit and managed to figure how to work it. My issue is being bothered to play long enough to get the fusion dust rewards LOL.
Most deco's that you can be bothered with need a level 4 catalyst to upgrade at least. So, every time I've found that I have catalysts below level 4 (won from event rewards), I go under the catalysts tab of the fusion menu, click the plus button on the level 1/2/3 catalyst, and disassemble until i run out of catalysts or fusion energy. Sometimes I'll then make level 4 catalysts, or go back to the main tab and upgrade the forge.

To upgrade a deco, click the big middle button thingy. Then, at the top, chose a deco from your storage, and an appropriate catalyst (click on it's icon, not the plus sign), and then the confirm selection button. Now, click the regular fusion button. Congratulations, you are now one miniscule step closer towards a slightly better deco.
