Bug Fixes
Some of the bugs fixed in this update include the following:

  • Fixed issue single kingdom tributes not displaying correct glory earned (this was a visual issue only).
  • Fixed issue where Emperor Khorvash’s spell would stun and mana drain 3rd troop if first or second troop died. (This fix should also apply to other troops such as Scorpius and Kraken who had similar issues).
  • Fixed issue where Guild Wars defence teams were not saving correctly.
  • Fixed issue where viewing Hero on Guild Wars defense team would show weird troop card.
  • Fixed an issue where the Hero Avatars was clipping over the top of the puzzle card.
  • Fixed an issue where troop on event menu was being stretched
  • Improved how assets are downloaded (hopefully should fix the missing asset issues)

  • Improved Submerged’s help text to better reflect what it does
  • Fixed an issue on PS4 with Aspect Ratios
  • Other bug fixes and improvements

Known Issues

  • Guild Wars Battles counting as losses
  • First 3 characters of Chat input disappear behind camera on iPhone X (when camera is on the left side) – This is an issue with the iPhone X, so we can’t fix this but rotating the iPhone so the camera is on the right is a temporary workaround.
  • Cleanse particle effect doesn’t trigger when you cast a cleanse spell (works correctly when troop cleanses status effect naturally)
  • Claim Button can appear incorrectly for mail items that don’t contain rewards
  • Tick in guild roster always shows on Level icon after re-opening the filter
  • After leaving/ disbanding guild, the Guild options still show as “Enter Guild” or “Fight Guild Wars”. (Workaround: Select “Enter Guild”, you will receive error message. Close error message and select Guild button, to create/ join a new guild)
  • Level Up screen background can be distorted on lower quality devices
  • Ring of Wonder + Legendary Troop bundle won’t be available until around the 18th December on PS4 (we’re waiting on final approval from Sony)
  • Team banner/name does not update immediately after changing team banner/name in the troops screen and going back to the Guild Wars Defense tab
  • Game crashes when player wins 6+ battles in Arena during the troop offer screen. (Fixed for now… though troop offers will be disabled until a fix can be put out in the next client update, so players can continue to earn seals from arena without this issue affecting them).
  • Game doesn’t display when the next skill point level is, unless the player gains skill point from levelling

Will these troops be available for glory at some future date or will chests be the only way to get them?

Why nerfing something already too much expensive?
I guess the bonus is added to the other ones, so if a player has already +200% bonus in Gold, he will get 250%… Or it’s a new kind of bonus and he will get +300%?

I just said this in guild chat lol.

Something to work for!!

I get that mechanically this makes sense, but thematically… to escape the Kraken you need to go underwater? :thinking:

Which?

Can anyone explain how this works? Is it still random, except now your summoning stones draw from a much smaller pool? Is this pool displayed ahead of time? Can you draw a single common troop from a summoning stone craft now? Are legendaries and mythics no longer available via summoning stones?

After clicking a summoning stone, you’ll see a question mark in the middle of the recipe. Once you click it, it shows which troops that it can summon.

part of the patch notes: Summoning Stones have been updated to have have rotation of 8 troops of different rarity (from common to Epic) per color; troops change weekly.

why they changed it? I guess people wanted to target lower rarity stuff. I’m completely against it, but I’m just one man. (Im the type that would rather just open gold chests for commons and rares)

I also am against it.

What about all the people that have bought the jewel packs for 50 gems every day or so since it was launched? One of the reason was not only to get the diamonds, but also that it gave jewels that potentially could give a legendary/mythic. Such changes will always get reactions.

FWIW, I really like the Summoning Stone changes. They were pretty worthless before but now they give you the opportunity to complete a specific troop as needed. That’s especially helpful when you need 160 commons but generally nice when you want a targeted way to ascend that one card you really want. I just wish the pool was slightly larger and they’d give us a sense of what’s coming up.

Love this stealth nerf. Much needed for EK & Kraken.

Its still not that great since it looks to be a 1 in 8 chance to pull what you actually want. No interest in testing it either
