Let more heroes out of the inn

Increasing to 18 slots would help a little, but I only need to pull 1 hero from the Inn.

What we really need is a swap hero function. You select a source and a target hero and then all equipment and runes are swapped. If the target hero was in the Inn then the source hero moves to the Inn.

If the swap is between a mage and non gage the the sword/staff remains with the source hero unless he will be moved to the Inn. In that case is it is put in the inventory. If the inventory is full then the swap is not allowed with the 'not enough slots' message (or whatever the words are) that you get when trying an Unequip all and there fewer that six open slots.

If you move equipment or runes around as part of the formation change you will still have to do that.

I know that stored formations have been proposed, but that would be a major programming effort to do. Swapping should not be that difficult to do.

Or we cn have the option of saving our formation for banish events this is way they will always be the same until we change or update them something like how it is in CW now.

As I said, that is a complicated solution that is not going to happen. My solution, although not ideal, is something that can be easily implemented.

That would be sweet!

The only downside to eliminating the inn entirely, even if I get to sell back my greys, is that between golds/purples/blues, I will be back up to 30+ heroes. I don't need to look at all of them all the time, and servers don't need all of them loading and causing lag. I wouldn't want to sell back blues and purples. I like being able to stash them in the inn. I even have some greys I'd like to keep stashed just because of their names.

I do wish we could swap rune sets in one click. And I really wish we could save forms, say, base pvp, lab, banish...but like someone already mentioned that seems like it would be complicated to implement.

In the meantime, increasing the hero roster from 12 to 16 or 18 or 20, or w/e, seems like a very easy fix that will erase unnecessary aggravation. I agree it would be nice to swap runes too, that is something else to work on.

That is actually incredibly excessive lol. I've worked it out to a science:D I can switch 5 of my heroes including runes in about 90 seconds, yes this leaves me open to revenge during that time...but I just take the risk because it vastly increases my rewards.

Even 15 would be huge. 5 main + 1 sub + Shayd and Calvin for banish means there's only 4 "situational" slots at present.

Your hand to eye coordination and the steadiness of your hand is a lot better than mine. I have to for slowly for the double clicks to work.

Do you remember when the inn was implemented.
Do you remember trying to find the runes you had stored on various heroes?
I'm still not sure I found all my runes. That was a COMPLETE DISASTER. It could have been avoided if the devs had actually communicated with us.
At least an announcement a few days before so we could have consolidated our runes rather than have them spread out over 20 or so different heroes.
The inn needs work. Maybe they are already fixing it and. per usual, not saying a thing.

Naaaaaaa.
