**World Event: Change in the Weather**

There are 6 battles that players can encounter during the event: Arcturion, Ice Troll, Frostfire Troll, The Frostfire King, Borealis, and Ullor. This event has 3 Phases:

- _Phase 1_ – The first 2 battles are the only available battles to play, and have an equal chance of appearing. Players will need to win 15 battles here to progress to the next phase.
- _Phase 2_ – The first 4 battles are the only available battles to play, and have an equal chance of appearing. Players will need to win 15 battles here to progress to the next phase.
- _Phase 3_ – All 6 battles are now available with an equal chance of appearing. This phase continues until the end of the event.

_Scoring_  
You can find the following rewards for each of the different battles you may encounter.

- Arcturion: 4 Lanterns
- Ice Troll: 5 Lanterns
- Frostfire Troll: 6 Lanterns
- The Frostfire King: 7 Lanterns
- Borealis: 8 Lanterns
- Ullor: 10 Lanterns

Each Lantern is worth 5 points. The battles will drop a variable number of Lanterns (on average about 1.18x the base amount).

**New Heroic Gem: Freeze Gem**

For the next week, we have a new Heroic Gem that players may encounter in puzzle battles, the Freeze Gem.

Freeze Gems can be matched with Blue Gems for Blue Mana, and when matched, they will freeze a random Enemy.

Freeze Gems will occasionally (but rarely) drop like regular Gems during the next 7 days.
