something we're going to definitely call
their out on because now it's
happened twice without any warning and
also there's a bug that we whether it is
a bug I hope you guys can help me out on
this one cuz there's a lot of people
I've spoken to that think it is a bug
and there's a lot of people who think
that it's mechanic I'm curious to hear
what you guys have to think and if it is
a bug they need to fix it because
there's a lot of combat power that we're
currently lacking due to it now before I
go any further with this please note
that we are recruiting for all of my

spreadsheet on there uh Google doc has

Discord check out the doc in the actual
video uh and click on it fill it out and
you have may be eligible to get yourself
into one of the top-end guilds that we
are currently running now let's talk
about the problems all right so first
off I want to bring I want to take us
back a little bit so when the last
update came out before Harper this is I
think roughly around gun he time maybe
even before gun he maybe it was around
meray time the shop here
that had battlefield of time right right
over here the exchange shop the
battlefield of time exchange shop was
missing these the traces of Shadows all
right they were gone completely gone
vanquished removed completely and they
were now Reed back into the shop now
there was no mention of this originally
there was nothing in the notes saying
hey we're going to remove the trace of
Shadows and there's nothing in the new
note saying hey we're going to add them
back all right so they're back now I
don't I'm I'm just going to say this I
don't know if this is true cuz I don't
have I haven't got a chance to go back
and document this but some people are
saying and again in the comment section
please let me know if this is right or
wrong I'm just laying it out there that
this amount is now higher than it used
to be I don't remember I do remember
them being very expensive so I don't
recall these being higher or lower CU I
haven't had a chance to check so I'm
going to let you guys in the comment
section let me know if somebody can go
back and verify I have not had a chance
to say or take a look so I can't really
give you that information accurately but
it is back that much I can tell you
because they were in fact removed now
this devs is the same thing as a Nerf to
me if you're nerfing a shop it's the
same thing as nerfing a character you
need to you need to let us know these
things are going to happen because
here's what ends up happening right is
these traces of Shadows are a pivotal
part of the game for us to get new
shadows and to add to our repertoire now
we're going to talk about shadows and
the bug that I'm referring to very
shortly I do want to talk about
something else though okay just so
everyone is aware so shout out for the
folks who actually did provide me these
screenshots cuz someone mentioned it and
I was I was like well I need screenshots
cuz I I don't recall if this actually
changed or not so this is the old um
battlefield of time ranking rewards all
right I'm going to show you guys this
real quick uh so bear with me for a
second right over here okay you guys can
see them they're right here this used to
be the old ranking rewards all right so
this is shout out to shiny for showing
this I think this was his part of his
video and I'm bringing awareness to this
so uh if if um he sees this shout out to
you bro thank you for doing this um so
you guys can see rank one rewards used
to give us the essence Stones as well as
traces right which was a big deal
because traces are really really hard to
get they they're not impossible to get
but they're hard to get and you need an
abundance of them to actually make a
difference okay so that was the old
rewards these are the new
ones yeah they've pretty much removed
them completely from the group now if I
go back to my game and I go check out
the battlefield of time uh the right
here and I check the reward rankings
let's just check this real quick where
are the rankings here we go if I check
the rewards
you guys can see overall ranking uh
gives you only Essence Stones right if
you go back to this ranking here these
rankings
here give you that all right group
ranking and then this ranking right
again they're they're unfortunately
nowhere to be seen in regards to the way
it was before all right so this
battlefield of time ranking has now
changed completely um so this is
something that they definitely need to
look at and fix because I think if we
really take a look at it um this in fact
is considered a Nerf to me all right and
this is something that needs to be
documented again we've talked about this
transparency a lot right this needs to
be documented cuz these like for a lot a
lot of the high ranking people
battlefield of time especially right
this here this group rank is a big
amount of rewards like that's not a joke
for people that's a lot of of things
right so if I go back here and I do the
same thing again go back here and then
you see that there's supposed to be a
group ranking but there isn't I don't
know why maybe it's because we're where
we're at right now uh with the new
season it should definitely provide us
with those rewards so it's a little bit
annoying that they've removed it
completely from it now this is a new
season so I'm not sure if the whole
structure has changed completely um
because of that and again something that
needs to be documented all right so I
want to point that out some people ask
me to talk about it so here I am talking
about it now the other part here which
is interesting is the Shadows themselves
all right so Army of
Shadows so when you raise your army
level right your total Army power goes
up your maximum Shades go up Etc pretty
straightforward we understand how that
all that works right makes sense now
when you promote a shadow I'm going to
go ahead and promote uh here let's just
promote this right we're going to go
ahead and do a growth so you guys can
actually do have another growth that I
can do that I actually like let's see I
can grow igoris or I can grow yeah you
know what let's let's Grow Big Rock here
okay I'm going to grow big rock let's go
ahead and do this so when you upgrade
this you're going to see right
now let's see if it happens
okay total Army increased all right
right there now I'm going to go back and
show you guys something else I'm going
to go and show you guys my current let's
just go look at my current team let's
just look at um where's my team manage
teams let's look at this team so I've
got 5661 164 566 let me write this down
real quick okay so we're on the same
page
56664 okay so that's what my current
power is with this setup and then I go
back to let's just say him right let's
just I want to I want to promote him
technically this promotion here should
give me a power boost right it's a big
deal I'm I'm going to for the sake of
you know for the sake of doing this I'm
going to go ahead and promote this is
not a good idea don't waste it like me
I'm doing this only because of of
showing you guys the reason why this
this is a big deal okay so I'm going to
go ahead and
promote now you guys can see here when I
promote
this there's going to be a power
increase
2745 okay
2745 so that was the power increase so
plus
2745 uh CP for iron
promotion now this is where it gets
interesting and I'm going to do my best
to actually explain this all right now
if we go back for a second and you go
back in the video all right before I did
this promotion my total Army level was
39 out of
51 all right 39 out of 51 that's where
my Army level was at when I promoted
iron if you guys can go back a second
and take a look my power became 39 out
of 53 now the combat power I just got
from iron isn't actually added on to my
power whatsoever until I get this Army
level up so it's a two-fold process all
right the way it works is the moment you
increase your army level
total it gives you the option to get
that much more power so from going from
51 Army to 53 Army if I got it to 53
that is an increase of
2745 that is not automatically applied
it's there for you to increase your
power because your total Army power
actually is based off of this right here
the only way to get it up is to to get
the actual total Army level up in order
to get the maximum level up you need to
actually push and promote
further all right that's how that works
so unless you are pushing your army
level up to the max level the only way
to increase the combat power even
further is to promote your shadows
number one right when you promote you
will get that increase right there and
it'll tell you over here as well too
right look Shades requireed Army level
goes plus 7 to plus 9 so this will go
plus another two more right by having
this and then from there when you level
up your army level that combat power is
applied now simply put if you go back
and remove this now watch this I'll show
you guys an example right let me just go
back for a second if I go back here and
I we're go manage team and let's just
say I take all my shadows out right take
take a look at this five 5 13825 right
if I go 513 825 plus 52339 which is
exactly what my Shadows are at you can
see here 52339 it actually gives me 5661
164 right which is exactly what power is
at when I go back and put them in so if
I go back and just put it doesn't matter
who I put in I can put in anybody right
I can put in these guys for example 5661
164 so the way combat power is
calculated it's not bugged a lot of
people think it's bugged it's actually
not the way it's calculated and shout
out to dark I think it was dark soul
that told me this kind of gave me the
idea to look into this so shout out to
you uh is the way it's it's calculated
is based on this so the more you promote
the higher the level of your Shadow
Authority right your maximum level right
there and then the higher level your
maximum Authority your your Shadow
Authority sorry the higher level your
army gets but you have to also level up
your army here using these right here
the shadow energies in order to to
maximize your total power in general all
right so that's why the calculation is
off for so many people for all those
folks who were wondering why you're
seeing the combat power increase but
you're not seeing it in your team is
because you it's a two-fold process you
have to first get the shadow up and then
you have to level up the Army level to
see the total Army power grow which then
in turn will affect your total power
right here when you equip your shadows
all right guys I hope that kind of
helped figure things out this is pay
thank you so much for watching leave a
comment in the comment section I'll see
you guys in the next one take care
