(!) Spoiler Alert (!) -- [Any Details Provided are Subject to Change] (Part 2)

Treasure hunt :rofl:

Not even kidding, these are heroic gems like most others, theyā€™ll likely be showing up increasingly through the campaign, same as lycan gems.

Wish gems sound like a pain for the 10 weeks. But Iā€™m okay with them after that when they are just made from traits and abilities. Only 1 troop and 1 weapon mention them so far, right?

Isnā€™t it suspicious that we have a new Mythic for March '22 (Faerie Gobmother), but nothing for February? Spoilers do not show anything so far, and there are 2 Mythics in the bottom of the full troop spoiler list, but no one fits February theme (Pisces are for 21st of February and Aries - for 22nd of March).

Not really. Gobmother is probably the campaign mythic. It has to be in the game earlier to show up in campaign rewards on Monday.

There are multiple troops for the campaign that all give a 10% chance to create a Wish gem at the start of their turn. These would be the glory troops released each week during the campaign. So, just like lycanthropy, itā€™s a mechanic that is going to stick around and pop up sporadically in different battles.

Seems ok to me if they release Pisces for ā€˜Februaryā€™ month since is astrological window is starting in that month (20 Feb-20March) about.
:fish:

TRAIT_MAGMASTORM - Magma Storm
TRAIT_MAGMASTORM_DESC - Conjure a Lavastorm when my turn begins.

New storm, not associated with a troop yet, but probably Fire Right legendary, Magma Dragon? If it matches delve colours, red/brown storm.

Also looks like weā€™ll be seeing lots of burning gems in the delve :grimacing:

  • Dancing Flames
    Convert all Gems of a Chosen Color to Burning Gems.
  • Burning Sting
    Deal damage to an Enemy. Then gain Armor, boosted by Burning Enemies.
  • Magma Breath
    Deal damage to all Enemies, boosted by Red and Brown Gems.
  • Flaming Trident
    Deal splash damage to an Enemy, boosted by Burning Gems.

Looks like were getting a perpetual Duststorm (aside from MC and Harpy Mage of course)

Unless thereā€™s a passive trait that converts, we might notā€¦ thereā€™s only one consistent source in this delve (so far).

TRAIT_EMBERS_DESC - 25% Chance to convert a Red Gem to a Burning Gem when my turn begins.

Oh yeah, thatā€™d do it. Thanks

missed it in all of the other fluff.

I guess if you never cast your troop with the bless potion on, they canā€™t burn your slot 2-4 troops with burning gems (realistically speaking slot 1 is going to grab a skull at some point).

Sounds like itā€™s going to be a difficult delve to beat with a native team and without potions because itā€™s going to be a damage carnival with limited damage mitigation and no healing. Like Indrajitā€™s Palace ā€“ which Iā€™ve started working on in the last week ā€“ with Brown to replace Purple and Burning gems instead of troops that do Curse/Burn.

Looks like the tradition of adding a new Mythic in the beginning of each month has been stopped. Too many Mythics in the game? Too few ideas for them?

Just because the mythics listed in spoilers donā€™t have dates yet doesnā€™t mean they wonā€™t be released monthly.

Mind you, Iā€™d happily take less frequent mythics that were genuinelyā€¦ mythic. Most of them are useless dross

The troops in Fire Rift look thoroughly uninspiredā€¦

Better uninspired than the developers trying something new and it turning out to be buggy.

Eh, 25% to convert a red gem to heroic burning gem at start of turn ā€¦ x 8 ā€¦ what could go wrong. Hope they donā€™t repeat Wyrmrun.

But mechanically speaking, its just so ā€¦ plain. Converter, damage + armor gain, damage to all enemies, and splash damage. Thereā€™s ā€¦ nothing really there. Especially when they just have four traits devoted to delve stats and another four to the 25% to burning gems.

AND, lets not forget that Broken Spire already has a Red/Brown Elemental/Dragon Legendary troop ā€¦ who definitely used to have a trait that burned enemies that did her skull damage.

There are two mythics in spoilers with no release date (Jan 1, 2030 = no set release date), I expect those will be the monthlies.
And Iā€™d be very surprised if they removed the monthly mythics - for a lot of people, new mythic Friday is the only day of the month when they open keys, lots of them if needed. Itā€™s not likely they would give up that key sink.

I wonder what spells the zodiac mythics will have. Hopefully it wonā€™t be just 12 variations of the same troop :crossed_fingers:

when will these be relesed and do you think these will be the friday mythics and line up with that fridays star sign?

Seems that way. There is another Dragonā€™s Claw mythic that just got added into the queue, but most of these seem to be Zodiac-related. Construct-seeming Aries looks badass.
