Today Mutant Runes Crafting and the Vault Keys was released.

Both is working smoothly (for me, that is). Crafting Mutant Runes can be done without affecting normal runes crafting. That is very nice!

The Vault Keys are also working smoothly and exactly as promised: 5 keys to open a slot and 400 keys delivered to level 150 players. No catch or extra charge. Thanks - that is a great relief!

Crafting mutant runes for lower runes up to level 8 perhaps might be useful for events like Team Battlegrounds (yes, I know: all leads and co-leads favorite).

But how about X-runes: it cost 3 X runes to create 1 mutant rune like a speed rune with a touch of health or stamina (not to mention double up for a Super Mutant Rune!), so it is not for everybody, but perhaps for a special occasion (adding stamina to an extra turner, life to a special support monster...)?

If you have ideas of such "Special Occasions" - write about it here!

You are correct. Indeed, this seems the first time that SP introduces a new feature and everything is working as intended. Even the new traits/skills like Megataunt seems to be bug free. SP seems to finally get the hang of quality control

However, the cynic in me thinks that they put in the extra effort into introducing a new feature because 99% of their players vehemently rejected it and then sugar coated it on its release with the vault keys (something that should have been implemented at the introduction of the vault!) and rune removal for gold.

So yes, well done and congratulations SP, but it doesn't change the fact that nobody wants those mutants!!!

@david-ml you spoke too soon about the mega-taunt being bug free...

@david-ml From what i tested unfortunately, mega taunt when combined with skill mirror has some issue: indeed the mega taunt sucks everything you throw at it (in my case removal of positive effects) but one of the other monster reflected the skill which I think is wrong; if you push the logic of mega taunt only Dunn ra should be targeted resulting in the skill mirror of other monsters to not get triggered. Bug or something that was not considered during implementation maybe?

Completely wrong indeed, either the monster gets hit or it doesn't. If it isn't hit, there is nothing to reflect!!!

Please note that I cautiously wrote that it 'seems' to be bug free and SP 'seems' to get the hang of quality control

Since Vault ain't going anywhere anytime soon, as the recent events show. Why don't you add more functions at it ? Like generating gold, as many have suggested. If it will take much programming time to generate gold according to monster's GPM, you can just make each slot generate let's say 100 GPM. That would compel me even more to spend gems to buy slots.
Moreover, I would love if we keep on getting 5 keys per month through the monthly calendar, this means you will be able to store at least one new monster per month for free, just by playing the game.

Why don't you add keys in the free chest rotation as well? And just remove those Battle Items already.

Weekly Dungeon which rewards keys ? Overkill?

About Mutant runes, it's a feature I just can't be bothered. It's not for me, and I do spend money on the game.
