Only lead seal and silver seal
I have unlocked the lead seal and silver seal, but no other seals appear on the map. Only the lead seal and silver seal. The seal contract allows me to recast the gold seal. Where can I find them?

you'll need to manually change the tickboxes for the available seal contracts at the end of a cycle sometimes. For me it happened after finishing the gold seal so its probably an infrequent bug. Thankfully you can just immediately restart a cycle now.

Hey! Once you beat the Gold Seal, you unlock the Seal Contracts mechanic, allowing you to select Seals that will spawn in the next Cycle. Do I understand correctly that the game unlocked it earlier for you?

I'd be grateful if you could let me know what's listed as the Highest Reforged Seal in the Smoldering City (on the bottom HUD).

Nevertheless, if you'd like to spawn Gold Seals (and/or other Seals), you can do it in the Cycle Summary screen which you can open by clicking the End Cycle button in the bottom right corner of the World Map view. The selected Seals will only spawn in the next Cycle, but as Narandia mentioned, you can finish the Cycle manually whenever you want.

Hi, I just had a similar experience, I did gold seal, and hadn't really touched prestige levels yet, so I needed to grind em up a bit before I started the next seal. I thought it didn't appear because I hadn't gotten prestige 5 yet, but once I did that, it still didn't appear. I had to look up on and realize that there were options to click when I end the cycle.

Honestly, imo, the self-selection of what seals appear seems a bit pointless. Seal maps are really long and afaik they don't give particularly improved bonuses, so for me all they're good for is to complete them and get longer cycles.

Unless ofc there's some mechanic here I've missed, but if there is, that feels like really endgame for me.

I think I'd change the game to default to always having the two next locked level seals on map, and have it be unlockable/optional to have the completed seals re-appear if you want. It'll give the player a better feeling of purpose and progression. The purpose of this game after all is to fix all the seals, so it's more coherent if they're permanently crossed off (or maybe not permanent? maybe there's a plot twist!), rather than the arcade feel of being able to choose them yourself.

When you reforge a seal you get a percentage of all the meta currency you earned this cycle combined. While quite a few people like to go higher and higher in prestige each cycle there are also those that don't, those who want to stay in the easier parts of the map. The option to keep replaying the same low level seals again and again enables you to earn more meta currency so if you don't want to do another attempt for the highest possible seal why not just choose a silver or gold seal and end the cycle earlier while still getting a bonus?
As long as your citadel is not yet completely finished or you would like to get stormforged cornerstones in your prestige games and lack the resources this might help.

Having the manual selection system is fine of course. The only problem is that its automated to highest previous and next highest first and then switches to manual selection without really telling you.
