Here’s how it works, directly from the 2.1 Thread:

> [@2.0.1 Arrives!](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/2-0-1-arrives/9573/1):
>
> **Explore Mode** A new game mode has been added in ALL Kingdoms. It is accessible once that Kingdom’s quest line is finished. Explore Mode throws you into a random battle from its Kingdom, with a few troops changed around to keep it fresh, and in return offers you a double chance of Runic Traitstones, and a triple chance at Arcane & Celestial Traitstones. As a bonus feature, the Explore Menu shows the traitstones available in each Kingdom too!

Could be as early as next week, probably two weeks though.
