So it has been a few days, what do you think of the auto-battle feature? Personally I LOVE IT. It is a good thing for the leagues and race fights, not so much with the arena fights since it does not seem to know to switch out the dragons when their life is low.

I dont use it. It seems to choose dragons in another order than I would do. I am sure my planning is better. But I always use the speed up button although it makes me a bit nervous to see my dragons in such a hurry and breathing that hard.

I use the speed up button for all the battles, it's a brilliant little time-saver.
But I only use the auto-battles for the heroic race fights and the quest battles because I always outmatch the opponents. I don't use auto-battle for arenas or for leagues because I when I get matched with higher-level dragons than mine, I need to switch and choose between my dragons and their attacks.

I absolutely love the combat speed-up option. The auto-battle on the other hand I don't really see the use for it. It doesn't save any time since you have to watch it all anyway. Maybe if there wasn't a speed-up option I'd use it - set it going and go do something else. Plus, I wouldn't dare use it in arena. The only situations where I would feel safe using it, really they should be looking at why we're given such trivial fights in the first place.

What I do like about it is that it's entirely optional and thus not the slightest bit harmful.

What would be nice, by the way, is if it remembered your previous selection for the battle speed so I don't have to set it over and over again every battle. But please, please do not implement such a memory for auto-fight!

I only use the speed-up button. I used the Autoplay button several times and it looks like the A.I.(?) doesn't pick the best moves most of the time.

I do the same exact thing you do.

I don't find it particularly useful. You can't specify which attack method to use. And if you kill off an opponent, the auto-battle counter is reset to zero and it restarts on it's own.

It's useful if I know I am much stronger than opponents, but that's not always the case.
