Our technical works are over, the Heroes are ready to greet their Lords and Ladies!
Swift Katana with her fiery blade – welcome her to your Castles!
We have a pleasant surprise for you alongside the release of this heroine: Katana will appear in your Castles with two ultimates right from the start, each of which compliments fundamentally different builds and suits a specific style of play.
By completing a seven-day quest chain, after which you’ll be able to recruit Katana for 750,000 silver. The first quest in the chain is already available, and the last will be unlocked on November 9. Once you complete the last quest, a new quest will appear that will allow you to pay silver to recruit the hero.
The normal way to recruit Katana (buying for silver without having to complete any quests) will be available for all players with a Сastle level of 25 and up from November 16 onward.
You can also recruit Katana immediately for 299 gold.
With the release of this new hero, the price of Plague Doctor has been reduced to 500,000 silver and 199 gold.
Rewards already await you in the Castles for the maximum achievement throughout the Autumn Season: Hero frames, flags, the Stormherald season skin, and for some of you – even legendary talents!
1 random main talent from sets 1-4 and 1 random main talent from set 5 (final).
Please note that rewards for Legendary League will only be awarded to those players whose Heroes were in the top 10 when the Season ended. The rewards for all the other Leagues are calculated by maximum achievement on this Hero throughout the Season.
For those players who, for whatever reason, are unaware of the concept of the Seasons, we recommend familiarizing yourself with the main information in the special section on them.
As at the start of the Autumn Season, at the start of the Winter Season we recalculate the hero ratings using a ‘soft’ system that will hold the interest of those at the top of the leaderboards without making the game too hard for those that are still on the path to conquering the heights of the top 10.
If a Hero’s rating is at or above 2000, it will be reset to 1950.
In all other cases, Hero ratings will be reduced by precisely 50.
We’ve seen a lot of feedback explaining that for players with their Castle and Heroes at a high level, Golden Age becomes less interesting.
So in update 11.6, we’re adding something to the bonuses that players receive for an active Golden Age, which should keep it interesting at any Castle level – Legendary Crystals! This means that Golden Age will be more interesting not only for players that are in the process of developing their lands, but also those who have already fully leveled their Castle and are now assembling talent collections for their favorite Heroes.
An active Golden Age now gives you a small chance to get valuable Legendary Crystals as a reward for battle. The chance of getting them is ‘borrowed’ from the drop chance of unique talents – accordingly, rewards of Prime Crystals or exclusive talents won’t suffer at all.
Additional talents for victory or defeat are now of only exclusive quality. Previously these talents could be unique or exclusive (the drop chance of oranges is the same as the drop chance in a common reward for battle).
However, to fully realize the potential of her Intellect build, Muse didn’t have quite enough skill effectiveness.
The hero’s alternative ult found it hard to compete with the classic ult – players that prefer to jungle on Fang preferred the longer control.
However, in team fights, reducing enemy damage is still a very nice effect. So we’ve slightly strengthened the stun effect of Terrifying Howl so that the hero can unlock his full potential with the new ultimate.
Storm Thrower’s skin has no voice over in the Castle but it has it in the game. This bug will be fixed in one of the next updates.
