A lot to do this morning!

I had like tons of monsters spawning in my towns today - and dropping a lot of goodies! :)

I hope this is not a bug and will stay this way...?

I had the same thing.  There were just all there when i logged in, they were not respawning after being killed.  There were at least 9 groups of mushrooms, dendrogs, and the ant thingys in each of my second and third towns (level 9 hero).  Nearly wiped out my whole army before i had to stop and rebuild to beat the rest of them.

They did not respawn yet. For me their strength/number was ok, lost around 1/4 of my army but gained a lot of exp (managed to get from just past 8th level to past 9th level) within a single day (2 towns apart from the main, about 9 groups of mosters each). And a lot of items, mostly equip. I think this might be unbalanced because now it's a bit too easy to get all this... Although it would be nice to have more monsters than the 3 groups every second day, kept me busy and I really liked it. Also with no quest left I was running low on some consumables and this was a good way to replenish my stores. With equipment it might be too much - I'm still far from medieval age and I've already got lots of items both for medieval and renaissance.

Later when we will implement the ability to disassemble equip items into raw materials and use those to create/repair other ones they will not be as useless.

Looking forward to that!  :)

Respawned now. Similar strength/numbers. Seems the frequency is around 24h...?

Seems like amount is same, but much FIERCER monsters.  All but one group is the Big Bird House and they are difficult to kill, have to keep retreating to keep my Level 11 hero alive!

Ok, so after fighting them all I think they were weaker than yesterday. Yesterday I had a couple groups of muscards, including big ones, today it was only one (although 2 big ones). Killed them all losing just 3 braves and 2 legionaries (and that was with the muscards, the rest of the fights were too easy). The items they dropped were proportionally less interesting too.

Compared to from before the update, both the number of groups and their size seems bigger. Before, there were always only 3 groups for me, and except mushrooms they were up to 3-4 in size. Now I had like 6 dendrogs, with 3 big ones. Also, I think the frequency is increased - before they appeared once in around 48h.

Edit: Lol, I just saw the other reply, it seems we have totally different impressions!

When I logged in today  my hero - who I'd left fishing in my second village - had been killed I think because one set of the muscard bugs was inside my village and she attacked them alone. I had to resurrect her before I could clear the fog - then I found in total 7 groups of monsters (4 insects, 2 dendrogs and 1 mushrooms) Each group was slightly bigger than I'd had before but I don't think any harder or easier to kill. My hero  was level 6 and had only had 1 group of insects before.

Great fun - I hope it stays as busy as this. Can't wait for them to come back.

Are acorns growing on towers a bug as well? I wish I had taken a screenshot of that, but I picked them up too quickly...

I think the problem will be resolved in current update.

It's not a problem! It's much fun actually...

I've had 3 groups of about 6 dendrogs, keep wiping out my army, but just have to build a bigger army

yesterday different hero had 2 large groups of mushrooms (no problem) and 2 large groups of dendrogs, (big problem, wouldn't die, had to go back twice for each group

my problem only wasn't expecting it, enjoyed fighting them

Second spawning since the update. A group of about 8 small and medium mustad insect things, a group of 3 of the big mustad insects that I haven't been able to defeat yet, and a group of 8 dendrogs including 2 big ones that I haven't tried to fight yet. The first big group of insects was within the walls of my village, but as I was reviving my hero in the main dwelling they just wandered around the entrance.

unlike in TTgold the towers don't attack the monsters - is this intentional? I tried building one near them while I was reviving my hero but it did nothing - I'm now assuming that they are just protection against other players attacking.

This new stuff is great fun, and levels my hero up quickly whilst giving something to do between quest stuff. Thank you.
