New Update: Version 8.50.0
Tavern and Clan improvements, Epic Empowerment, and more!
With update 8.50.0, we are streamlining upgrading Champions, adding Epic Empowerment, rebalancing Champions, and more. See the full breakdown below.
Tavern Improvements
We have made some improvements to the Tavern, making it easier than ever to upgrade your Champions. We’ve also added the Champion Filter to the Tavern to help find the Champions you want to upgrade.
Instant Upgrade
We are introducing the Instant Upgrade function that lets you instantly upgrade a Champion's level using Common and Uncommon Champions of Rank 2 or lower. Once you tick the Instant Upgrade checkbox in the Tavern, the game will filter your Champion list to ensure that it only selects Champions that meet the criteria and can be sacrificed.
The following will not be selected:
- Locked Champions
- Champions that can be used to Fuse another Champion, if they have warnings turned on
- Common and Uncommon Champions of Rank 3 or higher
- Champions with Tags applied
- Champions who are currently in Classic or Tag Team Arena Defense
- Champions who are currently in the Sparring Pit
- Champions who are currently in Saved Teams
You can also manually deselect Champions from the list by tapping on them.
Instant Rank Up
Instant Rank Up allows you to increase the Rank of several Champions at once, via the Instant Rank Up button in the Tavern. In the Instant Rank Up window, you can see Champions who can be instantly ranked up as well as Champions and Chickens that will be used as rank up material.
The following Champions will not be used as Rank Up material:
- Locked Champions
- Champions that can be used to Fuse another Champion, if they have warnings turned on
- Champions who are currently in the Sparring Pit
- Champions who are assigned as Faction Guardians
- Champions who are currently in the Master or Reserve Vault
- Empowered Champions
- Champions who are currently in Classic or Tag Team Arena Defense
- Champions who have reached maximum level in their current Rank
You can use a special Filter to set rules as to which Champions can be used as Rank Up material and in which order they will be chosen. You can find more information in the Instant Rank up guide, which can be accessed via the Info button in the Instant Rank Up window.
Skill upgrade improvements
All Skill Tomes of a certain rarity are now stored in one slot. When upgrading Champion’s skills, you can use a slider to set the number of Skill Tomes you want to use. You can also use the MAX button to use the maximum number of available Skill Tomes.
Champion Ascension improvements
When Ascending a Champion, you can now upgrade several Ascension levels at once using a slider or the MAX button.
Champion Filter
The Champion Filter is now available in the Tavern, allowing you to view all Champions in both Vaults, upgrade them, or use them as upgrade material.
Epic Empowerment
We’ve added the ability to empower Epic Champions! Now, Epic Champions as well as Legendary and Mythical Champions, can be Empowered using their own duplicates. Empowering Champions makes them significantly stronger by giving them permanent Stat boosts.
Redesigned News window
We’ve redesigned the News window so that it now has 2 tabs: Featured News and General News. The Featured News tab will display more important news so you won’t miss anything important.
Expanded immunity list for Bosses
We’ve added the [Enfeeble] debuff to each Boss’ list of immunities, making them all immune to that debuff.
Clan improvements
We’ve added a new Clan role - Lieutenant - as well as some quality-of-life improvements. One of those improvements focuses on allowing those with a specific role in a Clan to send a recruitment message to the Global Chat.
Numbers UX update
Numbers above 99,999 are now rounded using letters K (for thousands), M (for millions), and B (for billions) throughout the game UI. Number formats (dots, spaces, and commas) are also adjusted according to the rules of each in-game language.
