I have questions, but no access to the beta forum, so idk if anyone could answer them here.
I understand we'll be able to craft the evolving buildings, but whats the point of crafting the Phoenixes if we dont get the artifacts? (I see Stonehenge and Mermaid artifacts in the FA prizes)
IF within any sensible time period we would get the artifacts, could we build multiples of each of the Phoenixes? although I see it says we only able to craft them if we dont have them already, some players seem to be able to acquire multiples of each.
I am also concerned about how much less often we'll get to craft Pet Food. If we're unable to feed our Fire Phoenixes during the tourneys, it makes them pretty much useless.
Spell fragments cut by 50%.... i certainly hope that the quests won't ask for as many either.

The crafting of evolving buildings is supposed to only be for when you do not have a the corresponding building in your inventory or placed in your city. Thus these recipes should not unnecessarily clutter the crafting options (they are having problems with this implementation on Beta).
Gaining artifacts by FA seems to be a way of giving that event rewards rarely found elsewhere. A previous FA gave two phoenix artifacts. FA participation may increase by those who desire these artifacts.
The cut for pet food is concerning, especially if they wish to usher in more pets as they had announced.
The spell fragments cut is for building disenchantment only and is accompanied by a 50% reduction in crafting cost (for both spell shards and CC).

It'll still be a bit better than that considering options refresh 25% faster.
edit: and with a bunch of other options also removed that'll also make it better than 1/3 as often. It's entirely possible in testing, 9 versions of pet food became way too many with all those other things removed.

Make that 33% faster (from 3 refreshes every 24 hours to 4). So in total, we are looking at 4/9 of the crafting potential for pet food.

Right on the %, my bad, but that's still not counting the lower total number of recipes in the pool. Honestly if it turns out to be not enough we can always try to tell them it was nerfed too much.

I thought the last one was goods production too, as I thought I remembered getting higher points for sentient goods production.

Are these our boosted manufactories, like we do to create badges [i.e. flacon, bracelet, necklace]?
And, so no 2-day productions?
Pheryll

Probably a typo. The 60 medal reward is likely for the 2 day.
Judging by the last manufactory challenge, any manufactory production (whether boosted or not) will qualify.

Yeah, that makes sense - thanks.

Did someone punk you? Grizzly Bear, Polar Bear and Panda Bear are the three bear characters from a show on Cartoon Network called We Bare Bears.
I've seen the spoiler for one.
It's real.
I may explode.

We still don't 100% time reduction is the best you can aquire with the bear and timewarp.
even if it had a combined 200% reduction, you can't go back in time
It's an awesome building for all players who are yet incapable of getting the timewarp, but need those reduced timers to maken tournaments work for them in there timeschedule.
So I like it a lot

What I am saying is that you will inevitably reach a point where leveling the time warp another level makes no sense as far as time reduction. You feed the ice bear and the fire phoenix and do all the tournament at once. Further levels to the timewarp only really affect your sentient boost, which may not be worth the KP investment.

I am curious as to what would be the use case for that. So investing a ton of KPs in time warp (plus space for TW and the bear) allows one to finish the tournament with 2 pet foods for Fire Phoenix and the bear (less than 24 hours for all 6 stages). Vs 3 pet foods with no KP or space requirements for TW and the bear if tournament is done in 3 chunks of 2 stages over the regular week. Or perhaps 4 PF if your schedule doesn't allow for the above.
Is that the only benefit, or am I missing something? Doesn't sound like a good investment of KPs for TW and bear artifacts to me if it's just for that. Unless pet food is going to be A LOT less frequent...

I am looking at the panda + ice bear + fire phoenix combo. Panda gives "riches from other lands" per pet you feed after him. Plus getting the tournament out of the way all at once is desirable.
For the number of levels needed for the time warp; it depends on how good the ice bear is. If it is equally good as a max leveled time warp (the phoenixes were at least as good as their corresponding wonder) then it would only take 5 time warp levels to reach 100%.
As far as "a lot less frequent" for pet food; the 2/3 reduction on recipes in the upcoming patch is going to hurt quite a bit.

That sounds like a fool's errand, but it needs to be viewed in the context that lots of people who can place the time warp AW right now probably have nothing else to do with KP at the moment. If they are an aggressive tournament player, they probably have 500 or more KP to put into AW's every week, and have been doing so for at least a couple of months.
