New Update: Version 6.10.0

Deck of Fate Event, Forge Pass Season 4, and more!

Something suitably spooky is coming in this update! We’re hosting a frightful Deck of Fate Event, beginning Season 4 of the Forge Pass and introducing a host of Champion balance changes and bug fixes. Let’s dive into everything that’s arriving in version 6.10.0!

Halloween Deck of Fate

Trick or treat! The update sees a Halloween-themed Deck of Fate Event coming to Raid, with you earning Fate Pumpkins from completing various objectives. You will then use those Fate Pumpkins to flip Cards within the Deck of Fate. Any items you find hidden under a Card, you’ll keep as a Reward.

But that’s not all - if you manage to flip over 3 Cards of the same background color in sequence, you’ll earn a Fate Chest containing extra Rewards! Keep your eyes peeled on the News section - we’ll reveal everything you need to know about the Halloween Deck of Fate Event in a separate post in the future.

Forge Pass Season 4

Season 4 of the Forge Pass will be live from 09:00 UTC, Friday, September 30 - giving you another chance to earn those exclusive Bolster Artifacts and Bolster Stones! As with previous Forge Passes, Season 4 will give you access to a series of special Daily and Weekly Challenges to complete, with a whole host of great Rewards on offer - including Chaos Ore, Bolster Artifacts and Stones, as well as Silver, a new Avatar, Charms, and more.

For those who may have missed it - the Bolster Artifact Set places a protected Shield buff on you and your allies, meaning it cannot be stolen or removed in any way. You'll have to get rid of the Shield by either damaging it, or waiting for it to expire. Also, Bolster Artifacts heal the wearer by 10% of their MAX HP each turn - talk about bolstering your defenses!

Expect more info on Forge Pass Season 4 in its own dedicated news post - so stay tuned.

Tournament Improvement

Now for a long requested change! Using Skill Tomes will now earn you Points during Champion Training Tournaments. Keep in mind that this only applies to using actual Skill Tomes - you will not earn any Tournament Points if you upgrade skills using a duplicate Champion in the Tavern. 

The number of Tournament Points earned varies on the Rarity of the Skill Tome:

• Legendary Tomes: 200 Tournament Points
• Epic Tomes: 75 Tournament Points
• Rare Tomes: 25 Tournament Points

Added Chat Rules

Simply hit the “Chat Rules” label within the Global Chat interface, and make sure to familiarize yourself with the rules you must follow when talking with other players.
