We have made several improvements to Quests for lower level players, but also for existing high-level players to enjoy during Legends Reborn events.
[i][b]Kingdom Quest Map[/b][/i]
[list]
[*] We wanted to bring some more life to Krystara, so Kingdom Quests now take place on a Kingdom Quest Map.
[*] Quest Maps take players down into the Kingdom’s Region.
[*] Players will be able to see the Kingdom quests as nodes on a path on the map.
[*] Tapping on the active quest’s node will cause the quest’s popup to appear, allowing players to play that quest.
[*] Class Quests will appear as a separate location on the map. They will unlock once the main storyline is complete.
[*] Most kingdoms (71 of 76, including factions) will have their Quest Map in the 8.1 Update, but a few didn’t quite make it in time, so expect to see those Quest Maps updated in a future patch. In the meantime, they will share a generic map image.
[*] The Intro Questline and World Quests will have their own maps too.

[i][b]Quest Changes[/b][/i]
[list]
[*] On top of the new quest map, we have made some additional visual updates to quests.[list]
[*] Quest Battle “Enemy Yells” now appear over the kingdom quest map, and have a new look + animation.
[*] Quest Rewards also appear over the kingdom quest map, and have had a visual update.[/list]
[*] We have adjusted the sequence for our Quest flow.[list]
[*] Quest rewards are now given before the final cutscene.
[*] The starting conversations for the next quest will play after the end conversation of a quest (making it feel like a single conversation).
[*] Interacting with a quest node will take players straight into the first battle.

[list]
[*] We have added a new dragonite recipe in the Soulforge that will rotate each week with a different Dragonite Dragon (one of those available from either the Gem Dragon Egg or the Cosmic Dragon Egg).[list]
[*] Because this allows you to target a Dragonite Dragon, it has a higher cost than its respective Dragonite Egg.
[*] Any future new Dragonite Egg Dragons will have a 1 year exclusive period with their own egg before they are added into this rotation.
[*] The new recipe will go live next week around weekly reset [i](7am GMT Monday 9th September)[/i][/list]
[*] We have added a new Heroic Gem for a future Campaign – the Daemonic Portal Gem.
[*] We have changed access to Alliance chat from Centurion V to Legionary V
[*] We have changed the amount of VP from Icons remaining at the start of a new PvP season from 10% to 20%.

[list]
[*] We have fixed an issue where exploding Mana Potions could cause the game to lock up.
[*] We have fixed an issue where having an active Gnome-a-Palooza could cause the game to freeze if you tried to play the Citadel Battle.
[*] We have fixed an issue that would allow players to include 2 Immortals into their team if they manually adjusted the pasted team share code.
[*] We have fixed an issue where Immortal Troops could be summoned.
[*] We have fixed an issue where Immortal Titanius’ spell “destroy column” effect would not resolve Heroic Gems correctly.
[*] We have fixed an assortment of smaller issues.
