2.0 FAQ Compendium So with the dust settling slightly on the release of 2.0, I figured we might want to collate the answers to some of the most frequently asked question. First things first, the known issues thread is here, and Nimhain is keeping the first post updated with the status of the known issues listed. > [@2.0 Known Issues](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/2-0-known-issues/7368): > > Hey Guys, I’ve created this place where we’ll list out issues players have been encountering and keep you updated on our current progress with them. Please post an issues you see here. Updated July 7th 2016 PVP Ranks displayed on Enemy choices are incorrect. Status: Investigating. We have been unable to reproduce this during our internal testing.

Status: There is still a rare vers… This is also one of the main location to post bug reports for 2.0. 27/05 11:48am AEST - @Nimhain has just posted a update on the current known issues: > [@2.0 Known Issues](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/2-0-known-issues/7368/236): > > Update on Known Issues: Resource Bonuses not applying. Status: Resolved! Fix is out currently. Soothsayer spell with No Effect’ pop up causing the game to lock up. Status: Our internal testing is not triggering the issue. We’ll have another look into it. If someone affected by it can send us a video that would be useful. 60 Win Revenge Reward not giving out Event Key. Status: Resolved! If you missed out on the event key please contact our support team. Wight’s Spell not steal Life. S… And this is the PVP Preview Video that describes the new system: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/9/5/95b7b1ef4b0337c5d2a712a8a718a47a8250235a.jpeg "Gems of War 2.0 Preview - PvP") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEx65q8pXNw) # **PVP** _Dude, where’s my Revenge Tab?_ The Revenge system has been folded into the invade one. Now, occasionally when you draw your invade targets, one of them can be someone who invaded you recently and be marked as a revenge battle. These award more glory than usual (+3 I believe). _Iron Gauntlet Score_ This is a new Team Power score that Sirrian introduced briefly in the PVP Preview video. It rates your team based on the levels of the cards, their rarities, the traits they have unlocked, and your kingdom bonuses and gem masteries. > [@Sirrian](#): > > It represents how difficult that fight is going to be. The team score comprises the quality of the troops in the team, and also a hero’s advancement and the kingdom bonuses they’ve gained. Source: PVP Preview video _Rank? Tier? Whats?!_ The old PVP Rank has been renamed Tier and is now claimable as soon as you are eligible for it (ie have accumulated enough PVP points). PVP Rank now refers to your place on the global PVP ladder, and is a number from 1-X Where X is the number of players on the ladder. Rewards for your final PVP Rank are paid out at the end of the week. Even if you are out of the top 1000 you still get a small reward. _Did PVP ranks get reset?_ Yes. The old event (which ran for about 2-3 days ended, and you should have gotten your pay out as if the week ended. The new event that started with the 2.0 going live will run till next Monday and change over as normal (albeit at a new time, see below) > [@2.0 Update - Server Maintenance](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/2-0-update-server-maintenance/7302/57): > > The current event, Enter the Nobends, will end when the servers go down. When they come back up, you’ll receive your rewards for ranking as if it were a Monday changeover, THEN a new “Enter the Nobends” event will begin and run until Monday, using the new PvP system. Events will now end 8 hours earlier than previously… up until now, event changeover has happened at 3pm GMT Monday. That is moving to 7am GMT. The reasons for this time change? We’re all in the office at this time - it’s 5pm … _Can I lose Trophies in PvP?_ Not any more! > [@PvP Trophy Concern](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/pvp-trophy-concern/7318/7): > > In 2.0 you don’t lose trophies in PvP anymore slight_smile _Are the key Tier rewards gold keys or glory keys?_ They should be glory keys, however at the moment there is a bug that causes them to be gold keys. > [@Tier rewards - gold keys](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/tier-rewards-gold-keys/7404/8): > > Update on this for you guys: We’ve confirmed that this shouldn’t be happening and are working on a fix for it currently. Tier Rewards will be giving out Glory keys. No ETA on the fix. _Does difficulty apply in PVP anymore?_ Ranked PVP does NOT use difficulty anymore. Casual PVP however still will apply difficulty settings. # **PVE** _Are the new kingdom troops in chests?_ Yes, other than Yeti who is the event troop for next week. _Is War (the new Mythic troop) in chests?_ Yes, he has a low low chance to drop from Glory chests, and higher chances in Gem, and VIP chests. _How do I get Ice Dagger? / What is Ice Dagger?_ This is the 40 mastery weapon for the new kingdom. It requires 40 Water and 40 Magic mastery to receive. You might need to level up to trigger receiving it. I’m not sure what happens for level 1000 players. For level 1000 players: > [@New Weapon! Ice Dagger!](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/new-weapon-ice-dagger/7445/10): > > Any level 1000 Player who hasn’t unlocked this weapon, don’t worry! We’re going to send mail out with the weapon attached for you in the next 24hrs hopefully. _Why am I seeing level 1001 players in PVP? Has the cap been raised?_ Not yet, but there are plans to do so in the future according to Nimhain, and this level slipped out by accident. _Weren’t VIP chests meant to give 2 of the same epic?_ Apparently this was not conveyed correctly. You do get 2 epics, but they may or may not be the same one. _Is Winter Imp meant to be in the chests at the moment?_ Short answer: Yes. > [@2.0 Known Issues](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/2-0-known-issues/7368/66): > > At the moment yes, Spring Imp keeps releasing the Winter Imp back into chests. _How can I opt out of Global chat, but still stay in Guild chat?_ In global chat, tap on Channel:001 (as if you were going to change channel number) and then hit the new None button. # **Other** The event change over time on Mondays has been moved to 8 hours earlier than its previous time. Check this thread for more details on what that is in your timezone: > [@Guide to the new Weekly Changeover Time - Timezones](http://community.gemsofwar.com/t/guide-to-the-new-weekly-changeover-time-timezones/7316): > > Sirrian just announced the new weekly changeover time so I’m issuing a new guide. The weekly reset for PvP ranks will now occur at 7:00 GMT/UTC every Monday. This guide translates these times for a few selected timezones that I’m guessing Gems of War players will reside in. If you’d like further timezones added, please respond below and I will happily add more. There are two tables - one for when you are in standard time and one for when daylight savings time applies Standard Time (no dayl… Also a side effect of this seems to be that the daily login bonus is now awarded at this new time as well. ###Let me know if there are any other Questions/Answers or information that should be on this list! ---

The list is in a couple places around the forums already 😉 But yeah, trying to keep the OP as a way to mostly answer common questions that people have about the patch, rather than recording all the changes that occurred. ---

Don’t know about others, but I “do” lose trophies if I lose a pvp battle.
