To be honest, I first thought about joining the rant over low shard drop rate for this current girl. I used every combativity I had, including all those Seasons rewards, so all in all about 150 until now, perhaps even more. I managed 31 shards, which isn't too bad considering previous posts, BUT.. Then I got lucky and scored a critical hit, and won the girl along with 31 extra affection items. Hell yeah, it feels good! On a side note, were the girls in Legendary days always 5 stars? Anyway, good luck to everyone, since I have to agree the shard drop rate is absurdly low at the moment, but don't loose hope until the end. You just may get lucky.

The whales CAN, and those are the only player base Kinkoid cares about. They generate the majority of their income, and care only about more, more and then some more. So, quantity over quality - for whales, and as such also for Kinkoid. The rest of us can just go and fuck off. It's the way it is - over here or in life in general. We still have an option to enjoy this game (at least its elements that make sense) and make as much out of it, as possible. As far as "balancing" is concerned, it'll probably only get worse though - the over spending 'elite' will claim the goods sooner or later, and the rest will manage as best they can. Perhaps it even pays off for Kinkoid in the end.

So, another method to make whales fatter while the rest of us can more or less just stand aside. I guess it has to do with 'balancing the game', eh? Since the top leagues are already reserved for the fattest of them all, there's no real reason to even try to get myself involved in a 'Koban drain lottery' so skip, skip, skip and focus on a regular event.

No worries at all, I'm supposed to check the older threads first anyway, it just didn't strike me, that 'bugged stats' are what I were looking for. I guess it makes me feel easier that it's 'just a bug'. It'd be less pleasant if there'd be some super strong equipment, available to a handful of players. You also mentioned club bonuses. How much do those affect you? (In general) Being without a club surely makes me a bit weaker than someone with similar level/stats, but is it much of a difference or just a slight boost?

Sorry, I guess I'll go check the older threads then. Thank you for your answer though.

I've just been observing one of the opponents in Tower of Fame, and it struck me about their stats - it's insanely high. Now, I've seen numbers go sky high in one of the three base stats, but not in all three of them. (Pic 01) Now, as you can see, at this moment I'm using Chlorella, so it looks different, but with 4 Ginseng roots I'd have all three stats at about 40-42K, which still makes for a difference of about 10K. Which is A LOT! My stats are also maxed out as far as leveling up goes. (Pic 02) I wouldn't say my profile is THAT weaker from the opponent, since we're just 8-9 levels apart, as far as hero/girls are considered. I also have 473 girls, which is quite decent, I think. (pic 03) All of them also leveled up at about 390-400, except the main few, who're maxed out. So, what's the catch? Where did I go wrong? Quite decent level, quite decent amount of girls, maxed out, quite decent equipment, boosters active.. And yet someone's miles ahead of you, even if of similar level. How is that possible? Do Clubs give those extra boosts? (I'm in no club, so perhaps it's that.) Some extra-special-exclusive-mega-strong equipment, available only in the XY event? Anything? Or is there a simple(r) explanation? Cause it's really funny to think how well developed you are, and then.. THIS! Thanks for any advice!

I have all of the crafts maxed out. So, I should focus on an idle girl, along with a Boss Reward girl? Then it's just pumping them up and using combos? I guess it'll have to do eventually, but first I need to obtain a lot of books, to promote Verena to lvl18 enhancements. Since Gacha gives you this stuff completely at random, I rather collect it from daily missions, which takes time. But I'll get there, sooner or later. So thanks to both of you, you've been very helpful. As it seems, I've been handling Events from the wrong perspective and could have made everything much easier if it was done properly.

OK, so what we need is the following: - One Reward girl - One Boss Reward girl - One Click girl - One Idle girl - The fifth one doesn't matter at all. And even then, from what you posted in this thread, you only level up Boss Reward girl and Idle girl. In my case, the latter would be fully upgraded Lusamine, which is good. However I have none of the Boss Reward girls upgraded even a single bit, so it'll take time to get there. (Will try Verena, if she's really the best. I just hope Kinkoid doesn't mess with the balancing yet again, and in the end makes Bunny the best of them all. ) But as far as Reward and Click girls go, there's no need to bother with them? Or is it?

Oh, so you don't even upgrade the Click girl? Well, I have Lusamine maxed out, but all of my Reward girls are plain reward girls, none are Boss reward. I'll try to upgrade Demetria eventually, but it takes time, since those books don't always come around with daily missions. Thanks anyway; I'm really in no hurry to reach those high level stages, but it sure feels good if you know how to make the most out of your team.

Thank you very much!

Whoa, you actually manage to get their levels so high? I'm stuck at stage 6000, and am patiently waiting for a few perks to unlock before attempting to get over it, but as far as the level goes, my limit is around 400K, the 'main' girl ends up at about 430K if lucky. Using Queen Titania, Arietta & Sabrina for the rewards, Lusamine for idle and Lyka for Click. Everyone's maxed out as far as the enhancements go, except Arietta, who's currently at lvl 9000. (I need just one more Marketing lessons book to max her out) I also always use the talents straight from the start (Exciting flirts extra energized) while pumping levels in Queen Titania to gain massive amount of yemens in the beginning. My charms are also completely maxed out, since I haven't transcended even once. It has to be mentioned though, I'm using no boosters at all. (Waste of Ryos as far as I'm concerned. Especially for free players, or those that hardly pay up for anything.) Where am I going wrong, I wonder? Is it wrong to get all five of them on lvl400K? (First I get just Titania to 400K, while others are at minimum required level, usually under 100K or so until she's there.) I have 57 girls all together, with many of them having lvl9 perks unlocked, and all of them having lvl6 perks unlocked, except these completely new girls from Worlds 4, 5 & 6. Some of those are at lvl 6, some aren't even at lvl 3, but still.. I don't have a single clue as to how to make it better. As far as the transcendence perks go, I unlocked everything in Idle tree, while the other two end before x20 multiplier. So those two are to make a bit of a difference once unlocked, yet I'll focus in the SC tree first, since I badly want to unlock Affection regeneration time 20% perk first, before finishing with the last two Click perks. So, where am I messing it up really? I'll appreciate any help, thanks in advance!

Finally a PoA where I like all 4 girls. Sure, they could be drawn even better, but at least their overall theme looks appealing. Hopefully the art gets even better once we obtain them. As far as the event goes, it'll be a looooooooooooong grind, before we manage to fulfill the PvP fights quota. But then again, it's always like this. Hopefully I stay below 15th place in the Tower of Fame, then it'd get much easier. On a side note, than 'discount' sticker is really just a pathetic attempt to make as much out of 'Black Friday' as possible. As long as the price stays at 7.2K I guess I'm fine with it, but they could just drop the discount tactics and focus on more important elements of the game. Overall however, I'm impressed with this one, compared to the decent/completely boring previous PoAs.

Pardon, my mistake. I was sure I were currently grinding in the last chapter, but as it seems, I'm gaining new stages in Ch. 5 so..

I think you messed up chapters a bit, since chapter VI isn't released yet, but yeah. It's fun to follow the story in its own way, and some of the girls have picked my interest. As far as this goes, thumbs up for the development team. Personally I prefer the 'kinky one' that's all tied up, but unfortunately she's being drawn by someone who has standards lower by far, than the rest of the artists. (I'd also name her, but I'm currently not able to log in. Now there's a surprise.. ) A shame, but you can't have it all, I guess. Right now, the only thing that really gets on my nerves is eternal lag, not being able to even log in at a times, and many functions not working properly. I wonder if just some us encounter such problems or everyone does?

Happened to me as well, also when you complete a certain objective (like 'Seduce XY Heroines') and then have to claim a reward, yet nothing happens. If you reload, the game counts as if the reward was already claimed, yet the Ryos number stays the same. Also happened with Kink points reward beforehand. Any of you had similar problems?

Thanks a lot, you rock!

Completely agreed! The 'exclusive one' is how it's supposed to be done (and was in the past years) and the 'free one' is how it's usually done nowadays. Unfortunately. Being (somewhat) artist myself, I know it's not easy to create images with which they spoil us eventually and that it takes a lot of time and all, but wouldn't this game have FAR GREATER potential if the art was on level with 'the exclusive' girl. With all the respect to other artists, but in the end they just don't deliver what they're supposed to. (This is even more evident in HClicker game, where girls' base models are quite OK, while their 'story' images often make you wanna puke..) Fingers crossed someday there's more than one (or two) capable artists in KK team.

Yep, as you've all already stated - it's nearly impossible to log in, and when you finally manage, everything is laggy AF. Chat may work, but doesn't most of the time, and an event is nearly unplayable. You spend some 10 moves for 2-3 tiles actually sitting in their places, others just won't go there and eventually jump back at their starting point, while move is wasted. I'm not fooling myself that we'll receive any compensation, but the developers may go screw themselves as far as I'm concerned. It can't be THAT hard, to actually do something right for a change. Or is this trolling their master plan straight from the beginning I wonder? Seriously, mistakes and unforeseen consequences are always an option, and we're all just human in the end. But all things considered, I cannot remember a development team, that cared less for their end product and being more incompetent at their job than those who "take care" of Hentai Clicker. 'Super' expansion my ass. It's been 'Lag & bugs' expansion more than anything. And to think there are perhaps still people out there, being so stupid to pay whatever the price, for Kinkoid's failures de luxe. Fingers crossed, eventually not a single cent comes their way. Perhaps then they start to put some effort into their end product. Or not.

Finally, the event girls are well drawn (Great job KK, I mean it!) yet the whole event theme seems to be one of the least appealing ever. If anyone is into skull painted girls, that's good for you, but as far as my liking goes, it's a complete turn off. So, eventually we'll receive an event with well drawn girls AND one that's inspired in many interesting ways. Fingers crossed it happens in 2020 yet, until then the usual routine - get as many girls one can get for free, and save the kobans for greater use. All in all, it ain't that bad, so perhaps it's going to be an interesting month in the world of Haremverse. ^^

Yeah, it's the usual Kinkoid 'brilliance', and they especially 'excel' with it in the middle of an event. Of course it may be just their clever way of forcing everyone into buying additional moves (lots of those, actually) or perhaps just plain incompetence. My bet is on the latter, but you can never know for sure.

Kinkoid logic 101: Let's give them a new event, that may or may not work, but it does screw the game experience nonetheless (due to constant reloading and such). Fixing the game beforehand? Yeah right, like anyone does that these days.. Can't say I'm surprised, but Kinkoid - some day you'll have to pull your heads out your asses.

Full moon was illuminating the skies on the cold October night, the wind was howling around the corners, and this game was ready for a new update and/or content, which made majority of players shiver in fear, due to all the illogical nonsense from before. The thought of seeing the beloved ladies in their ugliest form, paying for just about anything in the game or the eternal lag.. Scarier than meeting Michael Myers at 3AM. End.

Thank you very, very much! On a side note: I may be dumb, but where do you guys get all this info?

Yep, and speaking of those, we've just had another maintenance, after which.. ..one cannot log in, no matter how hard they try. Great job, Kinkoid! No, not great, excellent even! [sarcasm OFF] Otherwise I kind of agree with what Lyn said, but surely by now EVEN Kinkoid (for all their incompetence) should realize, that if it's not working, no "upgrade" is an actual upgrade. At least they're supposed to.

Since the game directs you on this forum if you use its menu, why exactly isn't THIS very forum the 'official' one? I mean, why the hell would Kinkoid actually bother to explain anything on a platform, most of us isn't using anyway, while the 'official' channels remain unused? Another example of Kinkoid's "most brilliant" logic and awesomeness, I guess..
