New Feature! Limited Time Challenges have Arrived!
3620 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 9th 2018 at 3:27 PM Erika/Alyniana Today we're finally ready to unveil a brand new feature in Crusaders: Limited Time Challenges! Limited Time Challenges are customized objectives that you can attempt once a week, between Tuesday at Noon PST (8pm GMT) and Thursday at Noon PST (8pm GMT). You'll be awarded Challenge Tokens depending on how far you get, and you can use those Tokens to buy special items in the brand new Challenge store (coming soon.) This week's Challenge has already begun, so get to it! Good luck! The FAQ is available in-game, from the Challenge dialog, or on the blog.
1 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 9th 2018 at 8:04 PM regular_bugs I've already royally messed this one up. I started the challenge but Emo is away on a mission for a day and a half. Any way I can get out of this or am I stuck?
4 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 9th 2018 at 10:24 PM tina1212 Is there a way to see the breakdown of the token award system? ie 1 at lvl 25, 1 at lvl 100 etc etc. So that way there's a goal to set. Or dang!!!! No way i'm going to get another 34 levels, minus well reset now. Also not knowing the breakdown, the fear of resetting 1 level before a token would make me feel sick in my stomach. Then again, I would never know I guess how close I was :) Thanks. P.S. Great addition!!!!!! Kudos to the devs!!!!!

Then it slows down again. Haven't reached my maximum yet, so can't tell what it will be at a later levels. P.S. "Great addition" might be an overstatement!
4 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 10th 2018 at 12:19 AM tina1212 Ah thanks Zvereck. I'm still a nub (only 3k idols) so hitting a semi wall already at 175 even with the snowman. But going to push for 180 to get that token and maybe 210 now that I know. I'm still weak, probably better using time to farm idols/missions when I hit a bigger wall past 180/210. The 24 hours or so trying to get 1-2 extra tokens, I can use to get stronger for next weeks run I suppose.

5 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 10th 2018 at 7:14 AM Last Edited January 10th 2018 at 7:51 AM borokid87 Is the amount of challenge coins randomized? At the time of writing this, I'm at lvl 203 with 2 coins earned. A friend next to me is at 156 with 5 coins. The way I read the description it seemed like the amount would be set, unlike bonus idols which we know are a random amount. Could someone please verify if coin award is random? Edit: For clarification, I'm playing through Steam and they are on Kongregate. Also as an update, I'm lvl 294 with 2 coins still. Friend 222 with 7.

As to the token drops, they are gained for reaching areas, and they will be the same amount that drop for each player who reaches the area on that challenge. The token distribution will be different on each challenge, since each campaign has different difficulty.

You do know that on the PC, if you don't reload the game, whatever new content has been added does not show up, right? I did see the server maintenance announcement here on the forum, but when I got home from work Tuesday night, the game was still running, so I never reloaded until Thursday night. Your announcement did not mention any content change. Also a two day window in what is the middle of the work week for most people is excessively limiting. How about changing this so you can start anytime during a given week and the event ends for you 48 hours after you start?
