In our new (most ambitious so far) Adventure “Dragonking’s Prize” you’ll find out about the history of the Legendary Dragonking Axe while you chase down your prize! [expand type=details] [list] [*] This will be an Ultimate difficulty Adventure where you will journey to collect 4 Legendary Flux that will unlock Ragnar’s Vault, where the Axe has been taken. It includes: [*] Persistent Health & Potions [*] 5 Energy per day [*] A final reward of the Legendary Dragonking Axe [/list] [/expand] The debut for the Dragonking's Prize Adventure will be: [i]00:00UTC Thursday 21st September → 11:59UTC Saturday 30th September[/i] [b]Please Note: [/b]This Adventure has only ever had one difficulty, being “Ultimate”. Due to a bug, it will display as “**Novice**” but the levels themselves and difficulty are still at “Ultimate” difficulty. This will be resolved in 2.4 [hr][/hr] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41890248/6c784d5cc25ebcd79c769289b6bcf94d4577cdff.png[/img] We’ve added a brand new Login Rewards calendar!

We are hoping this provides a more true and interesting experience on fighting a hero. [list] [*]Your opponent's abilities can be previewed before entering battle by checking an opponent’s stats before battle. [*][i]Note: Spell Set Bonuses are not applied to the opponent[/i][/list] [/expand] [h1]Matchmaking Updates[/h1] [expand type=details] We have made a change to how the three opponents are chosen. Currently the options presented are based on your perceived power level, your level, and your points in the Tournament. These were intended to present a few different options not purely based on power. However, these options have understandably brought frustrations among the competitive players vying for the top of the leaderboards. In order to help alleviate some frustrations, we have made the following changes: [list] [*]The three opponent options will now be based on: [list] [*]Within +/- 10% of your perceived strength [*]Greater than +10% of your perceived strength [*]The highest strength player in your league[/list] [*]Opponents you already have a top score registered against should not appear again as possible opponent options. So in the case of the highest strength player in your league, it should grab the next highest, then the next, etc. [*]You can sometimes be presented with opponents who did not meet the criteria of the tournament. This can happen if there was absolutely no one else within the matchmaking criteria for you. If this happens again now, we now check for possible opponents again but without any power level restrictions (so could be presented with characters much stronger or weaker than usual). [*][i]This may still happen under certain circumstances, but less often than before.[/i] [/list] [/expand] [h1]Ongoing Versus Development Update[/h1] [expand type=details] Thank you to everyone who has been providing us feedback and being patient as we implement changes to Versus. We believe that the changes make for a more interesting gameplay experience, but understand that it can be frustrating. We’re still keeping an eye on all your feedback to help improve the mode going forward. In 2.4, we’re hoping to introduce some changes to scoring bonuses, so that it won’t be purely based on your remaining Armor/Life/Resistance. Beyond that, we also have plans about bringing further parity to the opponent heroes in Versus, so that it can really feel like you’re fighting another hero, and how we can address having so many Versus battles to do each day at the end game level. Thanks again and please keep sending in your feedback so we can keep making improvements!
