An Even Richer Combat Experience

1. Darkling Guards refresh more often, allowing you to find Darkling Guards closer to your City.
2. Improved the Battle Log system, fixing issues where buffs would not be accurately reported. Shield effects and other buffs gained by Legions can now be seen in Battle Logs.

5. Fixed Hero Skills:
   1. Fixed errors in the upgrade preview for Atheus’s passive Skill Sanctified Wings:
   2. Previously: HP increase 5%/7%/%/20%/15%; Healing effect received increase %/8%/11%/15%/20%.
   3. Now: HP increase 3%/4%/6%/8%/10%; Healing effect received increase 4%/6%/8%/11%/15%.
   4. Fixed an issue where Alwyn’s passive Skill Friend of the Hemlock would not take effect, and fixed errors in the Skill description: chance of inflicting Ensnare changed from 10% to 15%.
   5. Reduced Unit Count losses for Legions attacking Darkling Patrols, Dark Creatures, Darkling Guards, and Darkling Forts, and reduced the number of severely wounded units.

A More Accessible Map

1. Added a new notification when you discover an Observatory, and when your Mist Exploration Progress in an area is over 90%. You can now tap a pop-up icon on the right-hand side of the screen to jump to an Observatory and activate it.
2. Increased the area of Mist dispersed when activating an Observatory.
3. You can now see the location of all Observatories on the map by selecting Alliance Mode or Explore Mode.

An Improved Alliance System

1. Tapping coordinates with an Alliance tag in the chat window allows you to jump to that location on the map.
2. Added the ability to recall Legions within a Rallied Army back to your City. The Rally Captain can also choose to dismiss any Legion and return them to their City.
3. When relocating your City to territory near an Alliance Road, a Road will automatically be constructed, connecting your City to the Alliance Road. This automatically-constructed Road cannot be upgraded, and will not increase Legions’ March Speed, but it does make your City look better on the map!
4. When you have deployed a Legion to join a Rallied Army, an icon for the Rallied Army will appear in the top-left corner of the screen, allowing you to easily tell whether you have joined a Rally.
5. Changed the death rate of severely wounded units in Garrison Legions. When Legions deployed to Alliance Members’ Cities are attacked, severely wounded units will die at a rate of 10%, rather than 50%.
6. Increased Ore, Wood, Gold, and Mana storage capacity for the Alliance Storehouse.
7. Added a preparation phase. Alliance Officers can set a location and waiting period for the preparation phase, beginning a countdown to the start of the event. Once set, the caravan will wait at the designated location; Alliance Members can head there within the allotted waiting period.
8. Improved the team selection system. The system will no longer automatically select teams. Tap the caravan then select the “Escort” button to join the team.
9. Increased the duration of Titan’s Legacy from 56 to 70 days, and changed the EXP rewards for Event Quests.
10. Forge of Light Event Changes:
    1. Reduced the difficulty of acquiring Legendary Artifacts. You are now guaranteed to receive a Legendary Artifact every 90 draws, rather than 120. The probability of obtaining Legendary Artifacts has been increased from 1.0855% to 1.5155%.
    2. Increased the chances of receiving designated Artifacts. The Blessings system has replaced the previous system of exchanging remaining draws for Artifacts.
