🤝 Friendly battles pay full now — and: does Mermaid need a nerf?
Hey Captains! A few things landed over the last couple of updates that I never properly wrote up.
🤝 Friendly battles pay properly now
Most of you play friendly far more than ranked, and it's always paid a fraction. Since v55.112, your first 5 full-length friendly battles each day pay full end-of-battle gold and Research Points.
📶 A dropped connection no longer costs you the turn
In v55.111 the turn timer stopped punishing brief hiccups, and reconnecting after a drop got much faster. (If you're still timing out on a stable connection, I want to hear about it.)
🔧 Smaller things
- Shipyard: picking a livery in the SKINS tab now actually equips it (v55.113)
- Ability shots highlight the tile a Loyal Defender redirects them to
- Expedition fleets no longer set sail missing a ship
- Error messages read like English instead of a stack trace
⚖️ Now a question for you: does Mermaid need a nerf?
@idonthavewings opened a thread begging for one. @ti37p reckons nerfing it would make it not worth using at all. @nitwit_blubber_oddment_tweak says just +1 cooldown. I haven't decided.
Weigh in there, or follow the debate in #🛟⎜design-council — it's open for everyone to read. Want a seat at that table? Say so in #⛵⎜battletabs and I'll add you to the Design Council role — ship balance here gets decided in public.
Thanks for playing 🫡
