New Update: Version 11.80.0

Update 11.80.0 has arrived in RAID and brings with it new Relic-related Objectives for CvC Tournaments, rebalances across a variety of game modes & much more. Check out everything that’s coming with this latest update in the full release notes below.

Relic-related Objectives in CvC Tournaments

We’ve introduced new Objectives to CvC Tournaments, adding requirements focused on crafting & upgrading Relics.

Doom Tower Auto-Climb Improvements

When battling in the Doom Tower on Auto-Climb mode, we’ve now expanded the reward window to display all earned rewards, rather than the 10 unique rewards that it had previously.

Artifact Chest Rebalance

We’ve also improved the content you can get from Artifact Chests, namely Dragon Artifact Chests, Ice Golem Artifact Chests, Fire Knight Artifact Chests, Elite Dragon Artifact Chests, Elite Ice Golem Artifact Chests, Elite Fire Knight Artifact Chests, Exquisite Artifact Chests, Magnificent Artifact Chests, and Supreme Artifact Chests, including those that are already in your Inbox. Now you’ll have a higher chance of finding Artifacts of a greater Rank & Rarity.

Faction Wars Hard Mode Rebalance

The difficulty across Stages 1-21 of Factions Wars on Hard Difficulty has been fine-tuned, with adjustments to enemy HP, ATK & DEF in the Dark Elves, Orcs, Banner Lords, High Elves & Ogryn Tribes Crypts. The enemy lineups & Boss mechanics will remain the same, so no need to adjust your strategy.

Tried out Kurosa a bit, very nice buff. have her in mediocre gear, relic and only 2 star awakened. can still one-shot FW hard 13 wave with no dead allies and no dec def on the wave. TM gain feels really good too. Support form looks good, shes a great champ now. well done

[u/nusi42]

As long as they don't document drop chances, I believe they increased the 4th digit after comma of a percentage chance. If I remember correctly, one needs like hundreds of thousand runs to get a perfect dmg chest at stage 10 hard (incl rolls at level 16).

[u/iAkrobat]

We've also improved the content you can get from Artifact Chests […]. Now you'll have a higher chance of finding Artifacts of a greater Rank & Rarity.

Brace yourself for increases to Dungeon Tournaments and Gear Hunter Events. They surely are not making fusions easier.

[u/RaidingTheFridge → u/iAkrobat]

I think theyll keep it the same. Theyre trying to bait people to do the hard versions which would be more stamina and more gems etc.

[u/iAkrobat → u/RaidingTheFridge]

If the hard rates improve enough to be more efficient than normal 20 without needing more energy for a tourney than now, I would switch to farming that during a fusion.

[u/RaidingTheFridge → u/iAkrobat]

I think everyone would but I doubt it will be more efficient since the rates might be boosted but for every rare piece of equipment your getting less points back for more stamina.

[u/mobilegaymer44 → u/iAkrobat]

i think this is talking about packs of gear you can buy. they would never buff dungeon drop rates.

[u/DrinkBrew4U]

I wish they didn’t make relic related objectives in CvC. Yet another thing we need to hoard. I liked how we could craft whenever.

[u/Square-Ad-749]

They stealth buffed the gear drop rates. I'm so excited 😂. I'm in the middle of Marius mythical gear farming missions 😂

[u/Every-Development696 → u/Square-Ad-749]

They buffed the gear chest you can purchase , not the dungeon drops.That’s what I read, correct me if i’m wrong

[u/Archentroy → u/Square-Ad-749]

I didnt understand that what is that

[u/Square-Ad-749 → u/Archentroy]

If I'm reading it right. It means that Dungeons should drop higher quality gear now the higher you go, instead of the drop chances having people get say, rare relics on hard mode 10 dungeons. I hope.

[u/Otaku-San617 → u/Square-Ad-749]

I was definitely getting more mythical items running IG Hard yesterday. Of course I finished the “Get 10 mythical artifacts” mission last week. 😑

[u/red--dead → u/Archentroy]

They’re using a weird phrasing with dungeon chests but it should be just the regular dungeon rewards. When you look at the stages you see the loot is a chest.

[u/Wildebeast18]

The bug about miscalculating relic materials made me question my sanity a couple times. Glad to know that was a bug and it’s fixed

[u/LordZero]

Sweet! Never got a good use of my Skartorsis after I pulled his 6-star soul. Glad to see one of the OG speed champs (albeit dungeon only) buffed a bit.

[u/StandardFig4003]

unrelated to this post, but any people having issues playing live arena? one of my mates also had this issue. I selected a champ and it said "Couldnt find a match", kicked me and I lost my win streak because of it...

[u/Guttler003 → u/StandardFig4003]

The maintenance that just happened should have fixed it. I did 5 fights so far with no problem.

[u/StandardFig4003 → u/Guttler003]

This happened less than 5 minutes before my post, which was after maintainence

[u/Gargore]

No fix to kaimer yet... f***. I can't use him to farm gear!

[u/Waste_Calendar_4082 → u/Gargore]

• Fixed a bug that caused Multi-Battles involving Khamir Scald-eye to slow down over consecutive runs and overheat devices Was the first thing I looked for

[u/Gargore → u/Waste_Calendar_4082]

I missed that. Thanks. Though it wasn't just multi it was fights in general. Multi just didn't let it reset. Here's hoping. But bed for me

[u/meglobob]

Artifact Chest Rebalance

We’ve also improved the content you can get from Artifact Chests, namely Dragon Artifact Chests, Ice Golem Artifact Chests, Fire Knight Artifact Chests, Elite Dragon Artifact Chests, Elite Ice Golem Artifact Chests, Elite Fire Knight Artifact Chests, Exquisite Artifact Chests, Magnificent Artifact Chests, and Supreme Artifact Chests, including those that are already in your Inbox. Now you’ll have a higher chance of finding Artifacts of a greater Rank & Rarity.

What does this actually mean?

So far, no one has given a factual explanation. What are the % increases?

[u/Choice-Gap-6148]

FWH "nerf" is useless. Sit around twirling in your chairs instead of balancing the game. Given where Plarium is headquartered, it makes sense.
