New Campaign Begins A brand new Campaign begins today. Answer Feyr’s summons to Mydnight and investigate a strange book about an ancient God cursed… Heroic Gem: Cursed Gem During this Campaign, we have a Heroic Gem that players may encounter in puzzle battles – the Cursed Gem. Cursed Gems are Brown Gems that when destroyed,…

When the campaign ends, players can still earn unique rewards in the following ways:

- _Gormungandr_ – He will start appearing in chests 3-4 weeks after the Campaign ends.
- _Serpent’s Thorn_ – This weapon will be craftable from the Soulforge the next time during their Kingdom’s event after the Campaign ends.
- _Portraits, Emojis and Titles_ – Like Social Collectibles from Events, these will become available to purchase from Gems about 3 months after the Campaign ends.
- _Knots_ – As this pet is cosmetic, it will only be available during special Pet Rescues after the Campaign ends.
- _Shiny Gormungandr Tokens_ – These tokens will go into Shiny Chests as a rare drop 3-4 weeks after the Campaign ends.

How on Earth do I earn Campaign Stars?!

I can’t find a single reference within the game that explains this!

Surely, you can’t expect every player (or more than 1% of players, for that matter) to read and try to understand the patch notes?

This feels like a HUGE omission. Wow.

Thanks, @AMT

Great work finding that in such a ludicrously obscure place.

@Gems-of-War - Please lift your game. We keep asking, but you keep failing. It’s definitely what will stop me playing (and paying), and it’s starting to look sooner rather than later. (In case you’re not aware, I’m a content creator for the GoW community. Take that as you will.)

6 Green Books and one imperial deed on the paid side and nothing on the free side?  
Am I missing something here?

Ok so these are the pics on the 2 pass options.  
One is the mythic, but what is the other troop pictured.  
As I want it, if it’s pictured.

Very confusing

Also shows red deeds, but after collecting gives you blue.  
Id rather have the red , I’m guessing visual error.

YES! Red Deed is actually is Blue Deed!

Please change to RED!

Just finished Match Master…

Show Red Book as a reward, collected as a Blue Book, check my Resource Wallet and don’t think I got a Red OR Blue book.

Dont think its a Green Book either if it matches the Campaign Pass

something might be off here. If you mind checking my logs.

The same thing happened to me!!! I collected the prizes, but neither the blue gifts nor any others DID NOT ADD 2 units (I wrote down the number before receiving the award)! Invite Alex69\_KERN , Additionally, I would like to inform you that the same situation is happening on my second account BIR163\_93NC. I did not receive any rewards for the “Destroyer” or “Heroic Master” tasks. Thus, you will have to send 4 blue gifts to each of the specified accounts.

Confirming. Noted number of deeds before collecting; collected first finished task displaying red deeds; game showed blue deeds being given; the number of all deeds remained the same (even after restart).

I guess nobody got any deeds or imperial deeds ot books…first chaos shard tasked worked fine, though.

Yep, your track record of screwing up every update continues.

Could someone please explain to me why devs view treasure cards…like Genie’s Lamp…as being so damn valuable? To me those vault cards are absolutely worthless. They do not deserve to be on a rewards list. 🤷‍♂️

anyone would give me a hint how to fill up heroic master task (match heoric gems in any battle)?  
i havent encountered single random cursed gem in my 30 battles, so ive tried to do a team with Dark Smith Drenza to create some and match - yet no luck.  
i tried other heroic gems to match (doomskulls, lycantrophy, etc.) - still zreo progress on the campaign task.  
am i doing something wrong, too soon, and so?  
i appreciate any feedback on this (i dont see any related Bug report, so i assume it is problem between my simple mind and the concept of the game 😃 )

It’s any heroic gems. IV been doing central spire PvP with Stella.  
She’s got heroic gems, and my 3 takshakas have heroic gems.

Looks like a repeat of an issue the decaying gem campaign had. The campaign heroic gem isn’t dropping randomly. It got fixed after a while last time.

I wish they’d learn from mistakes like this and stop repeating them.

To those who’ve collected campaign task rewards, did you notice if progress towards the stage 2 reward starts getting counted immediately, or only after you’ve collected stage 1?

I’m wondering if we should hold off collecting rewards until they’ve ironed out the kinks. Will we lose progress by not collecting stage 1 rewards?
