I like how the mastery levels increased for all birds. makes it better for when the new chuck class obtained, cannot simply pay snouts in the Dojo to fully bring it up to the top.

The enemies seen in the screenshot is a Crabmeat, Chopper and a large Chopper that looks like E-28 Mecha Fish from Sonic Adventure, but with a modern look, a dark blue color instead of light blue and with cyan eyes instead of red eyes.

Sonic will only be available during the event.

@sal9 Cave 17 is called Pig Porch with a curse called Cave Tremor that “Deals 520 damage. 100% chance to stun a random target for 1 turn. Every 3 turns.”.

Most likely just like Stone Guardian – Earn during the event, or purchase with LC afterward.

Beware! I don’t know if FB bug has been fixed for anyone, but if you have an old device, such as iPad 2, with <1GB RAM, you may not be able to play Epic at all. Next step is to uninstall and reinstall. Will let you know.
Descriptions of team and opponents in arena now include power rating for each.

See here for update on playing Epic on iPad 2. After deleting Epic and reinstalling I have eventually succeeded in playing arena and even connected to FB, once so far, and wasn’t connected after Epic froze while trying to watch video.

Well, assuming another 50k mastery to reach level 12, I guess I’ll be grinding away at SRC until March. I’m at 341k snoutlings now. After that, I should be a millionaire.

hey guys! I got problems even with Iphone 5s and Galaxy S4!

Have Pigiana and the Prince been removed as allies? Did this happen in an earlier release ? I haven’t played caves in a while.

By trusty

every time I start angry birds epic, it keeps crashing on me. I have my Ipod touch IOS 8 version. what can you do to fix this? I wanna play it again so bad!

By Walkrok

Unfortunetely there are several bugs and issues after this update. I have Apple iPad Air 1 with iOS 8.4.1.

The icon of the upcoming event seems to be loading and loading, but never fully loads and if I click on it, to see for example how long is it to the event start, nothing happens.

Same like the others here, FaceBook login is even worse then before and it doesn’t keep me logged in permanently, like it was maybe 4 months before.

And yes, I am not allowed to play the elite version of daily dungeons, experiencing the same like @brewCrew82 .

I guess this update wasn’t one of the better updates, but at least they brought higher level potions which were quite needed for a very low snout price and 2 new caves. The update before was “only” cosmetic, so this is what is fine about this. Still, they can be peacefully be working on bug fixes for another 3 months, I have no problem with this.

As walkrok said, there are also new professor pig recipes (just don’t know if they were introduced in this update, or the previous one)

Rank: Shooter with 795 points
By Walkrok (@walkrok)

Surely they were introduced in this update 27th of August. But as I said, with them a disconcerting amount of bugs…

For example icon of the upcoming event still doesn’t work and a few more…

Rank: Champion with 3185 points
By Exobius (@exobius)

I have no problem with the icon… my post was to highlight the recipes, so that they are included in the summary list of the update

Rank: Shooter with 795 points
By Walkrok (@walkrok)

It isn’t mentioned in the list of the updates, that is true. In that case, I am wondering why this icon doesn’t work for me – I have Apple iPad Air with iOS 8.4.1 (should be the latest)…

I hope when the event starts, everything will be ok, or at least I will be capable to do some event battles.

Rank: Shooter with 795 points

No, I have hardly reached 9th level of some classes, can’t imagine I will have my birds on level 12 one day. But this is very serious, they promised something and it isn’t happening at all. Are you sure, you have updated the game properly to the version 1.2.11?

@chriss You have to keep earning experience. There is no auto-upgrade — otherwise that’s just a renumbering, not an upgrade.

By Jacek

Can someone tell me how, without cheating (or spending couple thousand dollars for gold coins) so many arena players have already 12 lvl classes on all birds? It simply impossible legit way. Rovio cheating to challenge my 10-9-9 50 lvl birds or real players cheat?

Rank: Sling God with 32120 points
By AMslimfordy (@amslimfordy)

It is very possible without cheating. We have several members here who are already Rank12/Level50.

Rank: Champion with 3455 points
By Sutekh137 (@sutekh137)

@amslimfordy

How, though? Level 50 is easy, but Mastery 12? On all classes? That would take a TON of LC at the Dojo to get. are the folks you are talking about people with thousands of LC? Grinding at SRC is going to take longer than a few days…

What am I missing?

Rank: Shooter with 795 points
By Walkrok (@walkrok)

What is this SRC lots of people are talking about? Is it some level/dungeon/or what?

Level 50 took me cca 10 exp potions, I used them in 7 and 10 round battles in 16th and 17th chronicle cave and it was almost done. But mastery 12 after few days, there must be something like 5.000+ LCs…

Rank: Champion with 3455 points
By Sutekh137 (@sutekh137)

@walkrok

SRC = Star Reef Castle, a nice place to grind for snoutlings and Mastery. CPC = Cobalt Pig Castle, and that one works pretty well, too (you just have a hard time finishing it because Porky is tough to kill with many configurations).

As far as how many LC would be needed to upgrade from 10-12 mastery:

— 15 LC buys 500 mastery for ALL classes for a bird.
— It takes 50,000 mastery points to go up a level, so 100,000 to go from 10 to 12.
— Using the 15 LC route would mean it would take 100,000/500 = 200 Dojo buys = 200 x 15 = 3000 LC per bird.

3000 LC costs $90 in the store. So, 90 bucks a bird, or $450 to upgrade all of the birds with USD.

Are there really that many folks who would have spent almost five hundred bucks just to go from 10 to 12 on their classes? Yeesh.

Me, I won’t be bothering at all to try to grind to 12. Who cares that much? Caves are pretty easy at level 10 and decent gear. I am just using Chuck and Rage and the standard available helper pigs and should be done with the second cave in a couple more days.

At some point I gotta think Rovio is just going to release Epic 2. Then I’ll have a big decision to make as far as whether I will let it suck me in again. *smile*

Thanks, I googled it, it was at some Nest forum. SRC should be the best, castle itself gives solid amount of mastery and Wizpig gives me exactly 100 snouts even on level 50 which is pretty good.

I would dare to correct you. Level 10 cost 50.000 mastery points, so i would expect level 11 to cost something like 70-80k and level 12 100-110k of MP. Lets say, we need 150k of mastery points for each class and a small rest we will buy for snouts. This is 150*75=11.250 LCs and this should be for cca 320-330 bucks. But yes, now when I read your comment, you consider the way of buying mastery in 15LC packages. They are exactly half efficent like 75LC packages.

Rank: Champion with 3455 points
By Sutekh137 (@sutekh137)

@walkrok

Getting to Level 11 costs 50,000 master according to my birds… Unless I am reading it wrong. That’s why I assume 50,000 is the max needed for these new levels of mastery.

And yes, snoutlings can help some, but the odds of getting any appreciable mastery from snoutling buys is minimal because snoutling buys disappear so quickly. Not to mention, I am not going to log in every three hours to utilize the snoutling buys. Might as well grind at SRC if I am going to do that.

Bottom line: this is a money grab by Rovio. Upping the max mastery level really does nothing to change or enhance gameplay except for Arena die-hards (which I don’t understand — the Arena seems useless to me). Level 10 is still plenty, and all this did was make it impossible to insta-max new classes as they come out, which really stinks.

At this thread [1] there is writen:

” * Level 9 to level 10: 50000

 ”

so I am surprised that it took also around 50.000MP to get your birds to level 11. If yes, than it is very good new! The less good is what you mentioned – impossible insta-maxxing and I guess that all this charade i just for grab more money from payers…

Ok, without cheating maybe, but not without paying thousands of LC at Dojo, so it’s half-legit – I didn’t spend a penny for pay-to-win games like this, so looks like I have to grind endlessly…

Rank: Shooter with 795 points
By Walkrok (@walkrok)

I wouldn’t say endlessly, level 10 cost 50.000 mastery points, so I guess level 11 should be for something like 75.000. At Star reef castle (this SRC i was asking about) you get 120 snouts per a run, this means 700-1000 mastery points for 1 bird (I have 20,25% discount at dojo, so 500 mastery points for 80 snouts, but I think lots of players have 30 and more %). This means 1600 runs of SRC should do it to level 11. Of course it’s a lot, but not impossible in 3-4 months :-)

By Exobius (@exobius)

I have grinded for snoutlings in Pig prison (the 5th level, where chuck is released). It is way quicker than SRC and from time to time you get a robber to appear (the ones that give you 50 snoutlings). It’s true that you may make 10 levels without any appearing (which might be less time than SRC, anyways and give you an average of 15 snoutlings/play) but I had times when I had one appearing in each of the three waves

Not a problem at all @walkrok It will start in 18 hours.

By Dominic

I’m having a huge issue and I dont want to miss out on the event. I’ve seen that a few people like me have been stuck on the event “loading” eternally. Has anyone found a way to fix this? (Perhaps by uninstalling/reinstalling? And does uninstalling and reinstalling erase all of your game data?)

This seems like a cool event and I don’t want to miss out because Rovio won’t fix it in time. Thanks.

Rank: Shooter with 795 points
By Walkrok (@walkrok)

If you have your game progress bound to your rovio account, you won’t lose it, that is the easier of your questions.

The harder question is, what will happen to us, players with this problem tommorow, when the event should start. (according to @sal9 , who wrote me a comment below, that the event should start tommorow)

By Dominic

Hopefully there’s a fix to this by tomorrow then. Uninstalling/reinstalling actually fixed my timer issue! Everything works fine now. 18 hours to go

Ok then, I am doing the same… :-) (but I hope, that it won’t be necessary to reinstall the app every time some bug appears…)

Rank: Shooter with 795 points
By Walkrok (@walkrok)

I reinstalled the app and it is working also for me. At the addition, I was allowed to pick up a daily reward from a month callendar (the last, 3 energy drinks which were missing to me). So maybe if you are missing something in the callendar, reinstall the app and pick it up together with 1LC for FaceBook login.

I have usually had issues with the Amazon app store having the latest version. Luckily, the install from Google Play Store started working again (it didn’t for a while) and I actually had two instances of Epic installed, one called “Epic” and one called “Angry Birds Epic”.

Not sure what to tell you other than to keep looking for updates in the Amazon store if you can’t install things from the Google Play Store (not sure how that all works on a Kindle Fire…).
