Trying out starter decks

[Chival]

i posted this about 4 hours ago, dont know how you could miss it.

http://www.elementsthegame.com/trainer is a version of the game that you dont log in for.

There are 3 extra buttons on the main page:

More MONEY : gives 10000 electrum per click.

More POWER : I havent used this but i think it gives you more health per click.

all QUESTS   : Instantly takes you to the rare selection, you can do this infinite times.

What this means is you can access all content other than pvp/duel with all upgraded cards and all rares. The only card you cannot get is shard of gratitude.

yes you can test decks against the gods.

Whats the difference between resetting your account and playing unranked AI games?

Someone was able to become a fake god with 200 health etc.; I think that's what it implies.

[Sigh]

What exactly does the "investigation" imply? I mean, was there something that happened to the trainer to make it not work? Or did someone hack/abuse it somehow?

No, it implies that there had been a previous trainer made, that destroys the whole game (insta-win buttons, opponent mana destruction, etc.), and I'm just checking with zanzarino that this is official. If it is, everything goes back to normal.

Choosing your starting deck can be difficult. In Elements, it's even more difficult because once you've chosen your deck, there's no way, short of resetting your account (Or playing with a deck you don't like until you can afford one you like), to change your mind. So why not let players try out starter decks before (or after) choosing?

It can be as simple as an unranked match against the weakest AI where you get the starter deck (Mark included) of your choice. Or the option to choose and play with (but not edit in any way) any starter deck at any time.
Of course, you can just create a new account on a fake e-mail address, or reset yours (And lose whatever progress you made).

As an added bonus, this feature would work nicely when new card sets appear.

Chival: Weird. I looked through the topics again and still can't see yours or anything to do with trying out cards (Edit: found it later, but, uhh... link removed pending trainer investigation). Anyway, since there's that trainer, all's fine. Closer integration with the game would be welcome, but it's not that important.

Harpoonedfish: The difference between unranked AI matches and resetting the account is that you don't lose your stats. You don't lose anything if you lose, you get nothing if you win.

On another topic, shouldn't all AI matches be unranked, or at least ranked separately from PvP matches?

wait... my post was removed? its on the official site LOL....

No, it implies that there had been a previous trainer made, that destroys the whole game (insta-win buttons, opponent mana destruction, etc.), and I'm just checking with zanzarino that this is official. If it is, everything goes back to normal.

The trainer that's off the elements official site? That seems pretty official to me...

Yes the URL is off the official website, but in Pilchard123's defense, there has been trouble in the past and this sends up big red warning signs. So rather than risk this website or possibly the whole game going down due to fraud, Pilchard123 has gone to verify the existence of the trainer before allowing the URL to be added to the forums here. As there is no link to the trainer on the website and the fact that he runs this forum (and with that fact may allow or disallow content at his whim), he takes no risk until verified.

If you are aware of the correct URL, the trainer is still there. If you are not in possession of the URL and the trainer is official, the URL will return soon.

I know some of you are saying "That's easy for you to say, you know the URL!" Except of course I did not know it even existed until five minutes before I posted this ...

[Sigh]

Hmm, well, I tried it out and I never saw anything like that, I just saw what Chival said was there and thats about it.

I've put posts back to normal - tell me if I've missed any, but on a forum, which I won't reveal because it has the other, unofficial trainer on it, zanzarino said to the person that made it:

Dear kinslayer.

Good job on the trainer of my game, however, I hope you realize the damage you caused to the Elements community, players that do pvp against someone that has infinite quanta is not fun. You are forcing me to ban some of the players that are using your trainer to access the database.

Modifying someone else program without permission is also illegal. And by illegal I mean my next contact is going to be from my attorney.

I am kindly asking you to remove your trainer from your website, or any other place where it is available to the public as soon as possible and within 7 days. I am sure you can understand.

Zanzarino Design.

I'm not too knowledgeable about copyright laws, and things, but I was just checking that the link that was posted really was from zanzarino (it was under an account called 'zanzarino' but there were only two posts, so I was playing safe, now I'm sure it was real), as by allowing links to a possibly illegal copy/edit of a copyrighted product on a site that I own/administrate, I could be involved with it too, as advertising this illegal trainer (reaad the bit in bold). As much as I was trying to protect the game and communtity, I was also covering my own back, and this site.

Now I know what's what, that it is official, and is legal, everything goes back to normal. Sorry for causing an unnecessary problem.
