Nothing to differentiate won citadel battles (gold marks) from regular bonus battles (silver marks)?

Multiple days of bugged rewards → 15 gold mark compensation.

Also, no citadels vulnerable today (Thursday)?

Yes same problem - I had no vulnerable areas yesterday with swords behind them - so thought that is normal because it was Wednesday. But again today I have no vulnerable areas?

More long unskippable animations, that nobody asked for?  
And why only for guardian battles? If you got that far, you probably know what talismans you’re using, I assume.

How can they devote time of any paid employee to fix an issue that isn’t broken nor had there been a single complaint about? Yet…

</div>

Did the list of Fixes get cut off a bit ? I am seeing quite a few relatively minor corrections and a couple that were a bit more urgent imho…but I am not seeing anything in regards to the new Citadel Wars battle aspects. This has been a bit of a hot mess recently with the entire mode not working as described/expected.

Is there also some fixes to this mode as a whole being implemented to correct battle scheduling and win rewards, etc. ?

I sure hope so… I will cross my fingers that it was fixed but just fotgotten in the list of “fixes”.

Didn’t fix more or less anything to do with alliance mode  
Didn’t fix the blocks and the guild logo in the middle of the map or anywhere else.

Is the option to switch off Alliance chat alerts on console actually working for others?

I have had mine switched off since the hotfix but still receiving alerts every time someone posts there still. Also checked settings were correct/restarted game since the hotfix. I am on PlayStation.
