    Default FB: Heroic Companion Requests

    What's with the Face Book Heroic Companion Requests?
    Could we get some clarification on how it is intended to work, and some warning before it is changed??

    Couple Weeks Ago:
    They didn't work worth a crud. I had 1600+ hours on the buff timer, but got no benefits from it.

    A Few Days Ago:

    Better. The buff restarted at 24 hours everytime I clicked a heroic companion request or someone clicked mine. With 20 clicks a day I was getting 100% upkeep reduction just like the explanation of the buff says.

    Kind of annoying that I didn't know when each buff expired though. Eventho the buff said I had 24 hours left, each click expired exactly 24 hours later. I had no idea how many buffs I was getting the bennefit of, or when they expired short of looking at food production.

    Yesterday:

    The buff timer went up to 48 hours, yet I didn't get any benefit from it at all??

    Today:

    Buff timer: 24 hours max, restarts after every click.

    Benefits: Only up to 50% reduction, after 10 clicks it restarts the buff timer but doesn't give any more benefits.

    Much much much agreed. It seems like the rules keep changing and rather than telling us what they are, we are left to figure it out for ourselves. This puts those that actually bother doing the troubleshooting and calculations at a disadvantage since we are wasting post clicks. Please just tell us how it works and stick to one set of rules. We get announcements about bug fixes that impacted only a handful of players, but what about things that are changing that affect everyone? Just an explanation of how this is supposed to work is all we need.

    The explanation of the buff is: "Reduces troop upkeep by 5%. Can be stacked up to 20 times. Each buff lasts 24 hours."

    This means to me, 20 clicks = 100% upkeep reduction. (5% * 20 = 100%)

    If they want the reduction to be 50% max, so be it. However, they should change the text on the buff icon and announce the change.

    This is important. The amount of troop upkeep reduction I can get determines how many troops I can keep around or build. I shouldn't have to log on, start clicking and realize that after 10 clicks my troop upkeep has quit going down.

    It looks like they are playing around with it, I'm sure once they are done they will change the text, at its current state of 10 stacks 50% for 24 hours, I think that's still pretty damn good.

    100% was just to much .. no upkeep? Would just unbalance the game.

    But at 50% that's a fair amount, those with the Vesta Blessings can just keep it at 100% reduction, but hey that's the bonus of spending cash, less time farming, more time working in the real world

    The buff should have a number on it but, once they add that will be nice, so like a lil x10 in the corner of it or something.

    Agreed, a number of how much is stacked would be immensely helpful, if they could do this with the buxom wenches stack, would be awesome too.

    AGREE 100000%.
    Please make Heroic Companions go to 100%.
    We know there's the intent behind this witch is for people to buy packages to get Vestas.
    But C'mon, you guys make money everywhere else.
    Or then why not sell Vestas at a reasonable price, not 1 per 30 dollars.

    Troop upkeep really drives the main motive people quit this game.

    Picture this:: we have 2 million archers in a city, and have to farm Hrs a day to feed them and use about 200k archers a day to do so. Then u need a day and half minimun to replace 200k archers....
    This becomes a cycle where the BOREDOM comes really fast and people quit playing.

    Keep in mind that MOST people are not going to start a new server no more, since to get our heroes where it needs to be we need lots of coins expended. Who in earth will start it all over again knowing that?

    So please fix Heroic Companion so it can cover for 100% of troops upkeep so the game continues to be a pleasure to play and not a vicious cycle of farming to maintain troops and build troops to keep farming... This is really ridiculous.

    Thank You.

    Heroic Companions to cover for 100% of food PLEASE.
