Hi Everyone! My name is Brittani Sahm - the brand new Community Manager for Chromatic Games, and your personal insider to all the things going on in the studio. Who am I? Before finding my way to CG, I was (and still am) a professor of public relations. My favorite part of teaching has always been learning about and talking with students, and I’m looking forward to reaching even more people through the many DD communities I’ll be in contact with as your Community Manager! I am a hit-the-ground-running kind of person, so the first thing I want to do in this role is learn as much as possible about all of YOU. The more I get to know each one of you, the better I can be in this role. There is a survey linked at the bottom of this post that brings up some of these questions: What are your favorite aspects of DDA? What are your favorite platforms for communicating with the devs? How many bad jokes can I reasonably make you listen to during my streams? (That is serious - Studies have shown that my jokes land 60% of the time, all the time.) I am a people person, and I will take my role as a representative for CG and the community seriously because I care about, well, people! I’ll share a bit more about my personal life, too. This may be obvious, but I am a gamer myself. If you look through my Steam or Switch libraries, you’ll find plenty of casual RPGs and simulation types of games (exactly what you’re thinking - Animal Crossing is in there), and my first gaming experiences involved playing anything Mario-related on Super Nintendo with my family. I love the nostalgic feeling I get when revisiting SNES Yoshi’s Island on my Switch now. All of this started with my parents’ love for video games that was passed down to me and my siblings - we grew up with my mom bragging about her sick Ms. Pac-Man skills from her arcade-playing days (she still likes to brag when she has a chance), and my dad making sure we had access to all the new consoles (we still have an Atari locked up somewhere). Because I’m a gamer, I understand the importance of knowing what’s going on with my favorite games and studios and feeling like I’m heard if I have a question or issue. I like talking to people, so this is something I’m quite passionate about. That is my strength as a professor, and that will be my strength as CG’s Community Manager. I could talk about myself for longer than you are probably willing to read, so I’ll stop for now and open the conversation up to you. What do you want to know about me? I’m looking forward to learning more about and engaging with this great community! (On that note - If you have a few minutes to spare, please fill out the survey below. It would be a huge help for me to get to know more about the awesome Dungeon Defenders community.) Dungeon Defenders Player Survey

Hello and welcome. We wish you success in your new role. While DDA is the current CG focus, DD2 is very much still alive. I am excited to see any energy spent on resurrecting the DD2 forum, as that has been on life support for over a year. It's needs some direction and effort. Meme challenges, surveys, guides, contests and giveaways, random questions, and some just good natuted goofiness. DD2 is far from dead, so it's forum should reflect that. Some things to know about the DD community. We are passionate and loyal to the franchise. We appreciate news and honesty about timelines. We are always desperate for new content and guides on how to play the game better. We are always looking for an excuse to play DD more- so give us one. We are happy to help in those efforts, like the wiki pages. We want DD to succeed, so that there will be more. Good luck. I'm excited to see what you can do.

Welcome to the community Brittani! Happy to see an advocate for us players again. As a former community manager myself, i have a special appreciation for your role and what it entails. I'm happy to chat with you anytime!

Hello Jaws! While much of our focus is on DDA right now, as the CM I'm able to invest time in all of our communities (that includes DD1 and DD2). I'll keep these ideas in mind as I plan content for all our platforms moving forward. I appreciate the passion I've seen from the DD community in my short time with Chromatic, and my goal is to foster that passion as much as possible. See you around

Thanks for the welcome! While Lawlta's CM work is tough to live up to, I'll try my best to be active, honest, and fun for this great community.

Hey there, You can get it from Drakenfrost Keep man in Expeditions or Onslaught on it's third weekly loot rotation. To gauge on which weekly loot rotation you are in, here's the schedule - 1st Week - Torch Bearer Mod in a Drakenfrost Sword or Bow. 2nd Week - Frozen Path Mod in a Drakenfrost Magic Staff, Polearm or Canister. 3rd Week - Frostfire Remnants in a Drakenfrost Tome, Gun or Lava Arm. 4th Week - Drakenlord's Soul in a Drakenfrost Sword, Dagger or Axe. And the cycle repeats. Each rotation occurs roughly every Monday (if you live the west side of the globe) or Tuesday (if you live in the east side of the globe).

Greetings and welcome to the community and the forums. I'd certainly hope this could mark the return of the forums being a very fun place to be like in 2018 (with Lawlta's tenure as the CM back then) And I'd definitely second Jaws on having any energy spent on DD2's aspects of the forums with fun activities too. With the possibility of CG looking into all aspects of the franchise this year (hopefully), it would be nice to see it being celebrated in the forums too, and not just in Discord. As for the community, yeah, I think both Jaws and Batophobia sums it up very nicely. Couldn't have said it any better.

Hey Kiskunk, the studio is working hard to complete these rewards and send them out to backers. The soundtrack will be sent out first, and the art book and strategy guide will come after.

Is there a list somewhere that has all of the XP bonuses (wave and victory) and a description of how to achieve them and what the bonus is? I've seen wave multipliers like Tactician, Untouchable and Unbreakable but sometimes one or more are missing and I'm not quite sure why. And I'm guessing there are others that I don't know anything about.

Hi xaturno, if you see any issues with specific players or bugs in the game, please report them in our Discord server or send an email to support@chromatic.games. You'll be able to reach the studio directly using either of those resources!

If you recieved any skin codes that don't work please send an email to support@chromatic.games so that they can replace those codes for you. With regards to the items listed above, they are actively being worked on at this time.

Did you try clicking on the gear icon and creating a new set first? It makes you create a space for the set before you can pick which of the costumes etc you want to use for each tab.

Consoles please! Or just fire up the PS3 DD1 servers and add some new content 😉

Welcome to the community :) I hope you are doing well in these annoying times.

I love that passion - I get it! We all have that *thing* we feel strongly about. My general rule is I appreciate feedback when I can get it. It's the fastest way for me as a CM - and CG as a company - to keep moving forward. Passion is communicated in different ways, and I'm happy to learn from and be on this ride with the community!

Welcome! Sorry the place is a bit of a mess right now. The community is quite passionate, which can be overwhelming when problems happen with development, but ultimately they are friendly and understanding.

Arymer has said he's gotten it from all the bonus maps. I've gotten a few from glitter for sure.

Welcome to the community! I'm sure you'll find this community to be super nice and welcoming!

Welcome to the community, @[CG] Brittani. I have stints of inactivity, but I've been a big fan of the DD series for years now. Sadly working upwards of 72-80 hours per week keeps me from dumping too much time into games nowadays. That said, one thing I have liked about being around here is the community and general communication. Easily one of the most important things in my opinion.

Welcome to Etheria Brittani! Here we have cookies, more gobus than we can count, and a lot of friendly chatter! Nice Pusheen cat by the way :D

Whenever you want, but with how slow support is to respond, likely a sooner-the-better thing. I am, but I've also got a copy on Steam. Other than focusing on Xbox first now, there haven't been any updates. Possibly, but unlikely

Great list. I had not seen that yet. Still, doesn't mean it will sell at those prices. Big ticket items are one thing, but stuff like boom mods don't sell nearly as often. I've had trouble offloading things on that list for fractions of those amounts. Server also matters. East coast and EU often have much higher sell prices than West does (PS4) from my experiences.

It doesn't look like you lost any data. Your ranked heroes are up to level 78. Is it possible you accidentally played on open/local yesterday and saw a level 25 char there?

As of right now, there won't be any updates for DD1, but DD1 Redux is going to receive updates and currently does has Custom Tavern Selections in the Options menu.

PS4/ XBox release would be awesome now :D
