Is there going to be a “boss” in every battle?
And can we know what the restrictions for these events will be prior to the start?

Cool
though, in the future… it may just be worth naming the collectible drop something different from the weekly troop. Manticore treasure for example

Yes please I would love to know what this weeks restrictions will be. Please add it to the previews going forward
But confused about the troop being released in conjunction with the event. Previous world events did not release a troop with it. Is this just to clear out remaining boss-slayers or does this troop actually have a use in this event?
First estimations:
Average number of points for 5 fights: 4 * (1 + 2 + 2 + 3) / 4 + 20 = 28
Average number of fights for shop tier 4 purchases: 94
Average number of points for those fights: 90 / 5 * 28 + 8 = 512
Average number of points for the whole guild buying shop tier 4: 30 * 512 = 15360
Completing all rewards should require roughly 15k points to be on par with previous events.

Here hoping, points don’t get bugged, also hoping in the future we can find this info in the ingame event. Speaking of course the confusing troop and event point reward.

So when does this stuffed animal hit the store? I’d buy one for sure. Most adorable card in the game.

Is it too late to reserve a front row seat for this event?

Why. Why. Why? All these pointless scoring mechanics that aren’t explained in-game still.
It kinda looks like you are trying to make these new World events more complex than necessary now to make people waste gems/sigils.

“Eternal Elemaugrim” is a boss. It is the same “Boss” type troop from daily dungeons.

Yellow and Brown Leonis Empire troops with limited weapon choices.
This is fun. /sarcasm

24k combined points, requiring 800 points from each guild member. Tier 6 will roughly yield 126 fights, for an average of 702 points. This looks very much like Council of Chiefs, requiring tier 6 - 7 purchases from the whole guild to unlock all rewards. Personal recommendation, skip the event unless reward thresholds get bumped down significantly.

As predicted they messed up adding this new troop.

Manticore protector is not showing in the shop. However, you do get the troop from the tiers, at least on mobile

You get the expected number of event troops (as in a raid/invasion) from shop purchases, they just aren’t listed.
Strangely, when you complete a battle it’s immediately replaced with a new one on the map. This means that you can highroll into multiple high rarity battles, even if only one is initially visible. This isn’t how the last event worked.
Many other weird things that other people have already pointed out. I guess we should just expect world events to be buggy and with random reward thresholds.
Edit: Why did we need to name the collectible “Manticore Cub” if the image is a manticore’s wing?
