Deckathalon - Dungeon Recall

AuthorMessage

This is at least the third event in a row in which dungeon recall is activated when leaving the deckathalon tower, allowing wizards to port back in with a full health and stock of treasure cards. Many players have reported this 'bug' through various means, and yet it's still in the event. If this is intended to be a part of the event and intended to be used by players, then there needs to be something stated about that by the devs, because as far as I'm concerned it goes against the principle of the event. The announcement tells us that "Each Wizard will gain three entries into the Myth Deckathalon per day. Upon entry, you’ll be able to climb the tower as high as you can until you’re defeated or run out of treasure cards" - at which point you can just hop right back in, obviously....

So, what gives, guys? Is this going to get fixed? Can we at least get a statement acknowledging you know something is wrong? How are we meant to know who the 'Top Deckathlete' is in these events when some people are dungeon recalling while others don't?

Yes, please - that it was in the Death Deckathalon and reported, and then back in the Fire Deckathalon and Reported, and now back AGAIN is giving many players the idea that it's intentional. If it's not intentional and not fixable, please let us know so we can all play by the same rules!

This issue was BACK again during the Life Deckathalon.

Is there no way we could get some OFFICIAL response to this?

Back on November 13, Wizards101Devs posted....

"We're aware of this issue.

It should be fixed in the next Live update."

...and It was reposted on Central here.

But why is no one else acknowledging this? This is a moderated forum so SOMEONE at KI is seeing this thread, and yet this thread hasn't had any response from someone at KI in almost two months?

Shouldn't this be where people come to to get the OFFICIAL response - from the horses mouth, if you will?

Here's where we are right now - there is confusion about this issue. There are those who think dungeon recall is a glitch as it undermines the very intent of event, there are those who swear that it's intentional and have no qualms using it, and there are those who simply have no clue but are using dungeon recall because KI has not acknowledged it and it keeps coming back, event after event.

Silence on this issue has been taken to be acquiecence and those who are using it are being rewarded with some of the rarest badges in the game. One needs to look no further than the Life Deckathalon where the player earning the Life Deckathalon Champion badge made it through the entire tower - from the very first fight to the final boss - with each and every credit. Possible to do the entire tower once? Yes - I know someone who has done this. Probable to do 24 times in a row without a single fail without Dungeon Recall?

Is THIS what this event is meant to be?

If not, PLEASE FIX! And if fixing is so difficult that it's going to take years to resolve, then please own this issue and say something! Reply here, use social media, say SOMETHING because your silence on this has ruined the integrity of this event. And with the Balance Deckathalon right around the corner - hands down, the most difficult one - a ruling on this would be very much appreciate.

Apologies, this latest one has a fix ready to go out in the next game update.
