Confirmed that mastery balancing does occur and may give some hiccups at first.
I went and loaded up my wife’s Epic (which hadn’t been updated to 1.4.7 yet) and checked existing mastery until next level for 2 M9 birds and 1 M10.
Pre-update Mastery to next level
Paladin M10: 49402
Princess M9: 14808
Wizard M9: 24171
Then I installed update and checked Mastery to next level for all three again:
Post-update Mastery to next level:
Paladin M10: 28274
Princess M9: 5626
Wizard M9: 10985
Net effect means birds may undergo a Mastery level increase during rebalancing. Weirdness including game loading futzes or ‘in-level mastery level ups’ may occur depending on when the rebalance processes on a given device.
Also, I have noticed that Epic doesn’t fare well if you miss a game “Results” such as “End of Weekly League” or “End of Event” prior to updating. For example, I encountered “can’t load Epic” issue on the wife’s phone when I updated Epic before logging in to get results of a past “For the Pirate King” event.
In that instance, I remained unable to launch Epic until a subsequent update occurred, which allowed me to get back into the game, but the Event timer for the Pirate King was still there and counting down something like 10,582 hours or so. That bug prevented participation in any game Event until the next time Pirate King ended, after which I was finally able to claim the previous Pirate King rewards and resume normal event participation.
Moral o that story is: make sure you load Epic with existing version BEFORE you install an update, or something like that. Maybe. Who knows? Programmers are notoriously unimaginative when it comes to understanding how players behave. Try thinking of updates like a snail choosing his route options to get across a clothesline, lol.
And for crying out loud people, do yourselves a favor and turn off “AutoUpdate”!
