6.6 UPDATE: LOST SOULS OF CARMINA
- Holiday Events are a new type of event with a 2 week duration, to celebrate various holidays throughout the year.
- Holiday Events contain a series of battles in a kingdom.
- Players get up to 3 Holiday Battles each day that they can use to play battles during the event.
- Holiday Battles work similar to Delve Attempts so any unused battles (below the 3 free battles) do not carry over to the next day. (e.g. If a player has 1/3 battles remaining at daily reset, the event will reset it to 3 Battles, and the unused battle is not carried over).
- Holiday Battles have a soft cap of 3. However, purchasing more Holiday Battles allows players to exceed this cap. Players will not lose any Holiday Battles that exceed the cap. (E.g. If a player purchases Holiday battles so the number of battles is 6/3 then at Daily reset they will continue to have 6/3 Holiday Battles).
- Players can purchase more Holiday Battles via Gems from the Event Shop (more information below).
- Holiday Battle attempts will reset to 3 attempts at daily reset (7am GMT) each day.
- The battles start at Tier I, and every 5 battles (win or lose) the player will be given the choice to increase or decrease the Tier.
- Battle Levels at Tier I will be 10-19, and will increase by +10 every Tier.
- Battles at Tier I will reward +20 Event Currency (more information below), and that will increase by +1 every Tier
- Players are restricted to using a single color for the Troops and Weapons they can take into Holiday events battles (similar to Tower of Doom).
- The Holiday Event is accessed from the Game Menu, and is split into 3 tabs: Overview, Fight, and Event Shop.
- On the Holiday-Fight Tab, players will have 3 battles to choose from, whose teams are each built from an Epic, Legendary, or Mythic Troop in the Holiday Event Kingdom.
- Each battle has an independent randomly-chosen level within the level range based on the Player’s current Tier in the event.
- After completing a battle (win or lose), 3 new battles will be generated to choose between.
- Each Holiday Event has a currency unique to that event. For example, the first Halloween Event, the “Lost Souls of Carmina” will reward “Lost Souls” as its currency. These are only useful within their event, and will be lost at the end of the event.
- Players can spend the Event Currency they earn from an Holiday Event in the Holiday-Shop Tab. Some of the rewards there can be purchased more than once.
- New Legendary Troop
- New Pet: This Pet will give Skill Point bonus to the Legendary Troop.
- New Armor Set: This is a new cosmetic armor set.
- Traitstones: Get Traitstones to fully trait the new Legendary Troop
- Pet Food: Get enough Pet Food to fully level the new Pet
- Orb of Power
- The New Legendary Troop will go into chests 4-5 weeks after the Holiday Event ends.
- The new Pet will be available from Pet Gnomes immediately.
- These items may be different for future Holiday Events.
- As previously mentioned players can spend gems to purchase a Holiday Battles Bundle with 3 additional Holiday Battles. This bundle can be purchased multiple times, each time costing 50 Gems more than the previous time. The bundle’s cost will reset at daily reset.
Our first Holiday Event, The Lost Souls of Carmina, will begin at Weekly Reset on October 24th for Halloween.
