Castle Age 10th anniversary festival!

People would be so mad if confuse was nerfed directly. It's a good idea I think, but CA hasn't been one to make balance changes, and I don't think players are used to that idea.

Yeah that's understandable. If you've already invested a lot in Syren (I'm sure some have her at level 80 and 8 stars), I'd understand if you got mad.

It should have been made less powerful from the get-go.

Still, I think nerfing it a bit would be better than making a whole new general against it. Maybe that's because I know I'd never invest in such a general
It could just be nerfed in 10v and Colo for instance. And/or capping it at 60-70%, idk (I think that would still be OP). And/or not making it work with Layla (I don't think this one would make people mad, they would have invested in Layla for other purposes anyway).

But anyway, I highly doubt the devs would touch any of the GB powers to make balance changes, as you said.

Maybe not nerf an individual ability, but a general that gives a chance for an action to "rebound" would seem a good option, after all there should be at least some risk in casting a spell, be it poison, poly or whatever.....

The previous Create A General contest screwed Warriors by nerfing Whirlwind, with Hermodr winning. So I have no sympathy for Mages having to rethink Confuse a bit, because this single ability is currently the most OP. Just as Whirlwind was supposedly so OP for the last one.

Is there any update on when the in-game part of the festival is scheduled to take place?

Ideas from the forum were considered, yes.

All entries will at the very least get I think it was a hero crystal.

Whether boobies are involved I will leave up to you do decide for yourself.
