Update 10.60 packs a ton of quality-of-life improvements: blind matchups in the Platinum Tier Classic Arena, a Super Raids Event in the Minotaur’s Labyrinth, minor improvements to the Clan Shop, Siege, Doom Tower, and more. We’ve covered the most important ones in the Update Highlights article below - take a look if you want to learn the details!
Classic Arena Shadow Phase
Over time, we received much feedback about powerful Clans teaming against other players in the Classic Arena Platinum Tier. While such cooperation is perfectly understandable, we want to ensure the Platinum Tier remains a fair and open challenge for everyone. To that end, Shadow Phase will be introduced in Update 10.60.
It will activate bi-weekly on Monday at 00:00 UTC and last for 8 hours before the Arena reset. All information about your opponents in the Platinum Tier will be concealed for the duration of the Shadow Phase - no usernames, no Clan tags to identify the owner of the Team you are about to fight. This way, staying in the Platinum Tier will rely on your personal Arena setup rather than on membership in specific Clans.
Minotaur’s Labyrinth Super Raids
We’ll launch a Super Raids Event in the Minotaur’s Labyrinth when Update 10.60 goes live. The feature will function in the same manner it does in other Dungeons: spend twice the Energy to earn double rewards in a single run.
Additionally, we’re adding a pop-up warning that will inform you if some Champions in your Minotaur Battle Team have maxed-out Mastery Scrolls. And if some Champions max out their Scrolls during Multi-Battles, the ongoing Multi-Battle sequence will be stopped.
QoL: Doom Tower
As of Update 10.60, the game will save Team Presets from previous matching rotations and completed battles (whether you won or lost) for Doom Tower Bosses and Secret Rooms. All Skill priorities will remain unchanged.
QoL: Gear
We are replacing the option to destroy equipped Gear for free (as opposed to taking it off) with the option to sell it instead. You’ll be able to do so either from a specific Champion’s inventory or from the Gear Filter menu.
Note: At the moment, sending a Champion to the Reserve Vault will still give you an option to remove or destroy Gear instead of selling it. We will fix this in 10.70.
The Filter itself will receive a small adjustment for convenience: you’ll be able to view the Gear equipped by your Champions or the Gear currently in Storage by checking one (or both) subfilters. This way, you’ll have an easier time finding what you want to sell. Furthermore, we ensured the ‘Select All’ button functions properly when you filter Gear with the ‘Just New’ option.
We’ll also add a dropdown to the filter that allows Gear to be sorted by the number of times a specific Substat has been improved when the Artifact or Accessory levelled up.
QoL: Clan Shop
As per popular request, we’ll make it easier to procure Relic Crafting Materials from the Clan Shop. Rare Crafting Materials will become available for Clans of Level 5 and above once you’ve purchased all Yannica Fragments (Slot 6). Epic Crafting Materials will be added to the Clan Shop rotation for Clans of Level 17 and above (Slot 11), and you’ll also get some Glyphs in Slot 12. Finally, Basalt will be added to the Clan Shop rotation in Slot 15.
Miscellaneous
- Siege Battles will display notification icons when rebattle attempts are available in captured Mana Shrines. Another icon will be available to Clan Leaders and Deputies to inform them in case Layer or Building Bonuses were not yet activated.
- CvC Points multiplier will no longer be displayed once you’ve reached the Points limit for that specific type of Objectives. We will also add point multiplier labels in the Game Modes menu to identify any mode included in the ongoing CvC Tournament.
- Requirements for the ‘Win 3 Live Arena Battles’ Advanced Quest will be reduced to winning 1 Battle.
- Requirements for the Advanced Quests to win 5 Battles in the Sand Devil Necropolis and Phantom Shogun Grove on Stages of 15 and above will also be reduced to winning 3 Battles.
- The number of Quick Battles for the Hydra will be increased to 9.
- Champions who have already reached Max Level will no longer be visible when you tap ‘Select Champion’ in the Sparring Pit.
- The list of Duplicate Champions in the ‘Empower Champions’ tab of the Guardian Ring will no longer scroll all the way to the beginning if you deselect a chosen Champion. Instead, it will remain in the same position you scrolled down to.
- As of Update 10.60, Champion Filter will allow you to set specific value ranges for various Stats. So if you want to find Champions within a specific range of SPD, ATK, and so forth, you’ll be able to.
- ‘Enable Notifications’ button will be added to the Options tab. If you disabled notifications on your device but then decide you want to enable them for RAID, this button will take you directly to the notifications settings. This only applies to mobile devices and won’t be available on Plarium Play, Steam, or Epic Games Store.
- 9 Champions will receive AI behaviour improvements.
After feeling constantly punished as a player, it really seems to get better in the last weeks. The fusions got a little easier and now you lowered some pain points in the quests. It reads promising in general. That is the right direction, Plarium. Keep it up, we wanna have more fun again. :)

Thanks so much for the positive feedback! Your opinion means a lot to us.
For the next update, would it be possible to add the option to block quest/pop-up notifications, artifact reminders, and missed lead alerts?
Hey, thanks for your suggestion! While I can’t promise they’ll be implemented in the upcoming updates, I’ll make sure to forward them to the team for consideration. Could you also share a bit more detail on why you find these pop-ups unhelpful?
"Additionally, we’re adding a pop-up warning that will inform you if some Champions in your Minotaur Battle Team have maxed-out Mastery Scrolls."
I am begging you... please include a setting to turn this stuff off. I am predicting these popups will be more annoying than constant red dots that you can't get rid of. Most players I know run a team of champs will full masteries, with one slot open to grind scrolls for one champ... the popup will be activating ALL. THE. TIME.
