About Elven Groovy skin pack

Post by KingOfTheSilverlands »

I'm talking as Elf race player.New skin pack is useless.1st,there is no difference between current unit images and new skin pack.2nd,this skin pack includes just recolored 4 elven unit and cost is 20 gems,no one pays 20 gems to just recolored skins.In forum,there is lots of elven skins here but instead of putting these in game,you guys just putting recolored elven units as skins.

I'm suggesting new vote for skin packs and putting these on game with new cosmetic update.

How exactly is a skin pack useful? It doesn't change any stats in game.

Anyway, elf groovy is just a minor skin like dead groovy, not much difference from main race, the only actual good elf skin pack I see other then the elf groovy, was the one Drejade made for the glades. Issue here is that I would have to make it so that they're image goes from a non animated one to a animated image, considering that my main focus is actually on getting dwarves and scaledfolks out of UC, skins aren't top priority for me.

Dwarves and scaledfolks are, mostly for now dwarves though.

Anything else comes second.

I mean useful like,Elf race players will buy or not.

And Dre's skin pack was good,you can put this on game instead of groovy pack.

The thing is that addition of new skins takes a little of time for us, devs (for savra specifically), and when someone makes them why not add?

Skins are just skins - they change only looks of units and do not add any additional features/stats/overpowered abilities to units. And they will not add any. why should they?? This is not a balance.

If you want you can buy skins. If you do not want than you can ignore them. It is up to players.

Drejade's skinpack also will be added a bit later.
The more skins game has the better.

I'm still not done with the skin so pls don't add it still.

I might make some overhaul to it when I finally want to.

Maybe I'll wait till the new elven glade units are finished first.

my only problem with elven groovy skins is it cost 20 gems, compare that to dead retro and elven adventure which both cost 10 and the combine cost of 20 and it looks a lot more unique and noticeable than elven groovy, not saying elven groovy is bad it's just not worth the 20 gems for me.

I think Elven Groovy skin pack should be common skins.

It's uncommon currently so it got the cost of 5 gem per skin. With the rarity of common, Elven Groovy would cost 2 per skin. With 4 skins on the pack, the whole set should cost 8 gems.

I actually can't change the price of the skin like in the shop cause I think it's randomized but changing the rarity might lower the cost.

I'll try that.

Elves groovy pack gives slightly different flavour to units. And good one as for me.

Skins are not supposed to be something completely new. They can be just improvements of current skins.

For me for example elven assaulter and elven bolas thrower from that skin pack are looking better than original ones.
Assaulter at least has now some armor to protect its body. Without it he looks too nomadic.
Bolas thrower has no more that mohawk styled hair which was always irritating me.

As for your "skins" in this thread — i warn you for this inadequate behaviour.
Elven groovy skin pack was a trial (alas in case of slinger failed one) of improving basic skin of units. I agree though that they must count as common skins though since they are just improvements of basic skins.

In principle, the skinpack is similar in quality to another skinpack of elves from DreJaDe, of course there are rumors there are animations, but I could not see them without buying.

Except the fact that they are made by different person.

I'm talking about quality, not the author. In quality, they are comparable to the images of elves from Drejade, but have a higher rarity than the Drejade images.

I really write like AI Uzbekistan that no one understands me? :lol:

Drejade's skins... Skinpack of human buildings is blue rarity, tribal horde skinpack also i think will be counted as blue one.

Just in case rarity order:
White, common
Green, uncommon
Blue, unique
Purple, rare
Orange, legendary
