Honestly I feel like it's the first time I've really seen the idea. I'm definitely going to pass it along as it's a change along a different axis then we normally see.

Reducing the turn limit is a very different suggestion than "Eliminating Clash" or "Hard capping damage" etc

Every Wednesday without fail.

Please while at the hydra pass along tell them to knock this off.

IDK, I've heard way more negative takes about Hydra Clash than positives.  Burnout, poor rewards, poor matchmaking being the top 3 Id say.

Burnout is my personal biggest concern, especially with the continued addition of time intensive content.

Will continue to pass along.  

even with the buffed rewards it's still kinda crappy even when you top 3 considering how difficult that can be at times. 

getting 2nd yesterday and getting all 5* accessories wasn't exactly fun. 

It shouldn't be hard for them to add a filter, and if a player used all three keys in the previous week, that quest does not appear.  It is there to force participation, but if the player is already participating, get rid of the coercion.  We can't always spend 90+ minutes on a random Wednesday. 

100%  Pass along this one:  All accessories for 9-piece sets should be useable across all factions.  

That's a good idea too. IDK what they'll say about the feasibility, we'll have to see.

But yeah, the stated reason for the advanced quest is to encourage participation yeah. However it just means I'm skipping if it's not the time I've already set aside for Hydra.

What?  You can't just bend your schedule around the whims of Plarium RNG-ness?  "What the L?"

Yup. Also continually getting accessories for the same 4 factions.

Big L for me for having real life, yes 😆 

How dare you. 

just bumping this since plarium was so generous to give it to me Wednesday and Friday. It is even better as I just did a 90 min 1500 turn run 15 minutes before quest resets.

This needs to STOP

I 100% agree for Quick Battle being something for Hydra HOWEVER I don't think the Chest Requirements should be lowered if it's implemented. The people who Manual for higher damage deserve that recognition.

What I'd do is allow 3-5 "Attempts" at a Quick Battle per Key. If you don't keep any results, you have to complete a Manual/Auto battle and keep the result before it unlocks the 3-5 Attempts on the next key. 

O_o?

I don't understand your comment. The two suggestions go together - you lower the amount of turns in the battle, and you lower the amount you need to get the chests. You'll still get more points going on manual than you will on auto.

This is a problem in my clan and I'm not sure how to deal with it. I've restricted Elite Quests to people who use Hydra Keys (1 quest per key used allowed) and about 40% of the clan still won't do Hydra. I don't want to start kicking people but I would have to assume there's lots of drama in less casual clans over Hydra now with Clash being such a important part of the game.

Not even the Accessories (which are huge) but the Primal Shard Fragments are critical for all

I hope Plarium will read this thread.  This forum is not the usual bunch of crybabies wanting something for nothing.   The monotony of watching a battle for 30 mins to 2 hours takes away the value of any clash chest.  

How difficult can it be to upgrade AI to use a few common sense instructions?  

Kram is not suggesting a quick battle like the Clan Boss quick battle.  He is suggesting a mild rework to Hydra to cap the whole thing at 300 turns vs 1500 turns.  Could even be 500 turns and it would be a huge improvement.
