This is a non-staff contributor position. Tasks for these roles come and go, and they are a great way to help without receiving too much responsibility. Internal Tester As an Internal Tester, you will be testing and exploring in-game mechanics with additional information that is normally hidden from players. For this you will be playing the game in windowed mode, with a second window showing numbers, like how much actual damage a specific attack did, and other information. Your goal will be to explain these interactions to our (balance) developers and designers. Your contribution will allow us to fix bugs and create new designs. Responsibilities • Test in-game mechanic interactions, mostly for our balance developers and designers. • Reporting your findings about those interactions and mechanics. • Optional: writing explanations on the Wiki, so others can benefit from your findings. Desired traits • Interested in learning how Skylords Reborn cards work behind the scenes. • Willing (and able) to play the game in windowed-mode. • Not being intimidated by the example image. • Able to use a calculator or spreadsheet for your findings. • Basic math skills: subtraction, multiplication, division. For example, you will need to be able to conclude that if a 1000 HP unit is left with 900 HP after getting hit with a 200-damage spell, there was a 50% damage reduction applied somewhere. Bonus traits • Being able to read simple code in C/C++ and/or Rust, so you can spot how EA or our developers created the formula. • Higher math skills: being able to figure out the formula (or piece of pseudocode if it contains a loop) with the gathered results.

Map Tester As a map tester, you get early access to new maps and game modes and are responsible to playtest them and provide feedback to the other map developers about possible issues or improvements. This includes checking how balanced the map is, how fun it is to play, if there are any exploits, if areas on the map need to be prettified etc. Map developers/designers/artists should be able to rely on you to make sure maps that are released or changed are done so properly. Responsibilities • Playtest current and new maps for possible issues or come up with improvements. • Try out different decks and tactics. • Look for and report bugs and unintended interactions. Desired traits • Have a flexible schedule and be able to provide constructive feedback. • Be able to conduct exploratory testing (in other words, interested in breaking things). Bonus • We are also looking for a testing coordinator. Alongside testing yourself, you spend time organizing testing sessions, gathering specific feedback, and keep track of our active testers. If you are interested in this role, please mention it in your application.
