Crystal Weapons
Crystal Raiders introduces three brand-new Crystal Weapons, the first in an entirely new weapon tree.
What are Crystal Weapons?
- Crystal Weapons are powerful new weapons created from Artifacts[/*]
- Their design takes a "form follows function" approach with clear shapes and prominent crystal elements[/*]
- The Artifacts used to create them are awarded at the end of each Guild Season in Conqueror’s Challenge Chests, meaning the first three weapons will be craftable at the end of Season 22 West / 4 East[/*]
- Higher-level chests award higher-tier Artifacts[/*]
- Each Guild Season will introduce three new Crystal Weapons, with older Artifacts still given out but in decreased quantities[/*]
- Unlike other weapons, the usage and crafting of Crystal Weapons benefits all other weapons in the same Destiny Board tree (Warrior, Hunter, Mage)[/*]
What are the first three weapons?
Crystal Raiders introduces the first three Crystal Weapons, each with its own unique spell:
- Infinity Blade (Sword): the "Limitbreaker" ability allows you to charge up your sword and run into enemy forces, then inflict a devastating double strike[/*]
- Rift Glaive (Spear): the "Razor’s Edge" ability fires a massive projection of the spear’s blade, which pierces through crowds and deals massive damage[/*]
- Astral Staff (Arcane Staff): the "Starfall" ability rains a shower of deadly stars down on enemies[/*]
Conqueror’s Challenge Changes
With the Crystal Raiders update, the Conqueror’s Challenge has been updated to directly reward players for both their individual progress and their guild’s progress. The former guaranteed Battle Mount rewards have been replaced with new Conqueror’s Chests, which in addition to potentially still containing Battle Mounts also contain Crystal Weapon Artifacts and other valuable rewards. The value of these chests increases in two separate ways:
- Individual progress in the Conqueror’s Challenge gives access to increasingly more valuable chests[/*]
- Guild progress (Season Ranking) upgrades the chests earned, expanding and increasing their loot pools [list]
- To unlock Guild-based upgrades, players must qualify for season rewards (be part of the guild for at least 51% of the season)[/*]
-<Daily Might Bonus and Might Changes
Daily Might Bonus:
- For each day in which an owned territory generates Siphoned Energy, all Guild Members get a Daily Might Bonus[/*]
- This Might can be claimed via the Conqueror’s Challenge UI[/*]
- The Might received depends on the amount of energy generated[/*]
Might and Might Level Changes:
- Tracking now grants Might and Favor[/*]
- Tracking Might advances the Guild’s Gathering Might Challenge[/*]
- Smaller guilds will now have an easier time generating Season Points from instanced PvP content, with the Might needed per level decreased and the Season Points given per level increased for the following: [list]
- Corrupted Dungeons[/*]
- Hellgates (all sizes)[/*]
- Castles[/*]
- Territory Power Crystals[/*]
- Hideout Power Cores[/*]
Crystal-< Raiders launches January 8
