Okay, so this is technically caused by the Switch receiving the 6.9.0 update in sync with other platforms when its content schedule is otherwise delayed so that makes it a bug – BUT for once this actually works in the players’ favor (at least as soon as the offers for Trial team troops get fixed). so … “not a bug, it’s a feature” ?
Regardless:
- The fixed team for Nexus trials includes Queen Ash and The Umbral Giant.
- These troops are actually not released on Switch yet (i.e. they do not appear when viewing “Unowned” Troops).
Similarly:
- Dhrak-Zum’s team includes Dhrak Smith
- Hellcrag’s team includes Stone Mefyt (unreleased itself, but summonable by Nabassu, who debuted with Hellcrag itself)
- Merlantis’s team includes Triton
- Mist of Scales’s team includes Stone Viper
- Whitehelm’s team includes Priestess of Light
- Zhul’Kari’s team includes Bound Mage
(I could not review Adana, Forest of Thorns, Karakoth, Khaziel, or Whitehelm personally, due to having previously completed their Tier X Challenges.)
The main result is:
- Until the bug with offers gets fixed, we can’t actually obtain these Troops yet, and thus can’t use them as leveled/traited in the Trial (or any) teams.
Presumably these Troops are involved with future Campaigns (our current campaign, The Hellcrag Monument, has 3 more weeks left; after that The Prismatic Key should be next?), but fortunately they do not appear to spoil any new Gem types that might also be featured in future Campaigns (e.g. Dragon and Spirit Gems).
