While hordes of Demonspawn led by Kurosa prepare to sneak into Teleria through mysterious portals and spread chaos, we keep maintaining stability: what can be more stable than our regular RAID Digest. Let’s dive in!
With the start of the next LA Season, we’ll be rolling out some updates to Live Arena Seasons Points, and matchmaking.
The first change is that the number of Season Points gained or lost in a battle will be adjusted. It will depend on the point gap between you and your opponent. To put it briefly, when defeating a considerably weaker opponent, you’ll get fewer points; when losing a battle to a much higher-ranked player, you'll lose fewer points.
The second change is that we are improving the matchmaking system of the Live Arena Seasons to decrease the chances of a match between accounts with a considerable difference in Season Points.
All the details are coming next week in the corresponding in-game news, so stay tuned.
Decreasing Bombs' duration doesn't count for the Hard Faction Wars challenge “Manipulate buff or debuff duration 20+ times” (for example, Gnishak’s A2), as this particular effect [Bomb] is related to 'detonation' and not 'decreasing duration'.
The same situation applies to the Poison and HP Burn Activations (for example, Artak, Dark Kael)—the “force tick” does not count towards the Challenge because it doesn't reduce the duration of debuffs; it literally activates them.
Another nuance you probably need to know about the Challenge is that it counts the number of effects triggered (Decrease/Increase duration or Decrease/Increase cooldown), not by how many turns the effect manipulated buffs/debuffs or skills.
Here is an example:
