I think it dropped for me only once from a Sentinel chest; otherwise, it also drops from treasure chests, if memory serves.

Well according to [this older post](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/treasure-guardian-community-drop-rates/81918/719), Sentinels have always had some ability to drop at least Writs – which were retired as part of the new Kingdom Level system.

I think most assume that update releases are up to Infinity Plus 2 and not each individual platform.

writs would be related to kingdom xp and crystals and not star stones

Will Autumnal Imp be added to the chest card pool when this update takes effect? As I’m unsure of the timings for when the seasonal imps tend to rotate.

Last update I was given is 9.4 releasing tomorrow, ~~excluding Switch as it is still sitting with Nintendo waiting to be approved.~~ on all platforms.  
There will be a delay in the new Level-Up packs being released on Switch though.

## Update 9.4 is in the process of releasing (finally) NOW

It will also be slow to reach everyone, especially Amazon.

Android achievements will also take some time to go out, as they aren’t just bundled into the game update getting published
