Greetings all, I’m here again to let you know about some cool new QoL features coming into the 36.3 build on October 3rd. These features come from our conversations with the community so if you have an idea, please let us know in the comments below. With that said let’s just jump into the features.
This is more of a bug fix but is likely to make some people happy. We’ve made the solo event popup properly scroll to the first claimable milestone so you won’t have to manually scroll all the way down just to claim the latest milestone.
Tapping on champions in rewards will now show if you own the champion. Additionally, if they are awakened, it will display what sig level they have.
Added a line in the defender section of the buff info node popup to show the hero's rank. This is mainly important in Alliance War where the difference in rank can make a difference.
We’ve added another toggle along with Smart Select in the upgrade screen called Select All. This will ignore class alignment but still try to select ISO in the best way besides that. This is mainly for those that don’t specifically care to maximize their ISO usage but just want to rank up their favorite new champions in the quickest way possible.
We are experimenting with an auto-open button that, when clicked, will continuously open crystals, 10 at a time with a 3-second interval in between. This will continue until either all your crystals of this type are opened or you cancel the auto-open. This should hopefully help when you just want to bulk open all of the crystal that has just been piling up.
We do anticipate that this could cause some extra load on the servers, so will be initially releasing it to a small percentage of the player base at random. We will be gradually increasing the number of players that have access to it as we have more confidence it’s not going to break the servers.
PS. Following up on our previous change that swapped the ending buttons on this popup of Upgrade Champions and Back to Crystals. This was not actually intended and has been reverted in this build.
This feature was originally announced in a livestream where Lefty Knox and I went head to head in Battlegrounds. If you want to check it out here’s the link!
We’ve added a toggle to make claiming free crystals quicker on the home screen. If this toggle is active, instead of being taken to the crystals screen to open the crystal, it will instead pop up a quick overlay showing the crystals claimed. It will also claim all available crystals in one click so if both the daily and the 4-hour crystal are claimable, you get both in one go. This should hopefully make it quicker for those that want to get the benefit of these crystals but may not want to open them right away.
And with that, it’s time for me to sign off. I hope these changes will improve your daily life in the contest and as always, please let me know what you think or what other changes you’d like to see implemented.
Cheers,
Zero
Solo Events Claim Scroll To Improvement

Hero Info Tooltip Shows If Owned

Showing Rank in the Defender View of Buff Node Info Popup

Great work as usual Zero!
An not like the horrendous solo event for battlegrounds.
Finally.
The last qql must be something really big so looking forward to it!
Inventory limit for ISO should really be doubled (or even tripled, or more), to cut down on clicks even more.
Going back-n-forth from Claiming Stash to then Leveling up is rather quite long when you are into some Basic-ISO sections of your Stash while leveling up 5* or 6* champs which require a lot.
For us with hundreds of different crystals each, it kinda sucks to have to scroll so much in search for a specific crystal. Especially when these are only displayed 1 and a half at a time on the screen.
Maybe shorten the pictures and make it 2/3 crystals per line or something.
There have been discussions in the past that a "Help all" option would put a lot of stress on the servers, and while I'm not a dev and don't know how those things work exactly, I feel like a system where you don't have to do any manual inputs at all would presumably put the least stress on the servers then.
And adjust Loyalty to be based on either just logging into game, or if keeping Travel/Energy help the amounts would be adjusted to reflect the much smaller amounts of travel help needs on average for an alliance.
I won’t lie - every month I am waiting desperately for new arena qol or an overhaul. I keep my fingers crossed
If we could get the reward overflow fixed so that claiming something partway down the list doesn't shunt us back to the top when we may have more things further down we also want to claim it would be nice. It is annoying to have to keep scrolling past the same things over and over just to keep claiming things further down.
As others have mentioned, the ability to sort through the crystals in either a way with more tabs like the new inventory or with a sort menu like the champ screen would be great. There are way too many different crystals, and different versions of some crystals too, to have to scroll through in the 1st crystal tab as well as them not even being organized so the similar ones are all grouped together.
Also, the ability to just pop (instead of spinning) a single crystal when you have multiple instead of only 10 at a time or having to spin the single one would be great. I hate the waste of time with waiting for single catalyst crystals or hero crystals to finish spinning.
