Hello, everyone!

It’s time to reveal what Update 10.30 will bring to RAID. First of all, there is the Festival of Creation - a major Event to celebrate the 6th Anniversary of our game. We’re also introducing the Live Arena Seasonal League, Background Multi-Battle, and several smaller QoL updates.

Check out the Update Highlights below to learn the details!

RAID 6th Anniversary

RAID is turning 6 years old this March, and we’re gearing up to celebrate this milestone! The Festival of Creation will return, packed with smaller Events, Tournaments, gifts, and other fun activities. This time, it will be themed around the cream of the crop of Aravian society and their posh festivities. Lord Entertainer Fabian - our Anniversary Champion - embodies the elegance expected of a true aristocrat.

Your Bastion will be redecorated to suit the occasion, and a new musical theme will complete the transformation. If you want to enjoy the celebration in full, remember to turn the volume up.

When the Festival of Creation launches, you’ll get access to a dedicated web page that will keep you up to date with all the activities planned, so watch out for the news!

Live Arena Seasonal League

Several changes are coming to Live Arena with Update 10.30. Firstly, players will progress through Silver Tiers faster:  the Live Arena Points they earn per victory will be increased to 7, and the Inactivity Penalty will be decreased to 1 Point per day. Reaching Gold Tiers is the end goal, and once you achieve it, you will never drop out again. It’s also where we will implement the most significant changes.

Gold Tiers will be reorganized into the Live Arena Seasonal League, and this is how it works: players will participate in Seasons that last 4 weeks; the goal is to earn as many Live Arena Points as possible by defeating their opponents. Those who land in the Top 100, Top 10, or even take the first spot at the end of the Season can expect rewards to match their effort. Furthermore, earning Season Points will unlock Milestone Rewards, so even if you can’t fight your way to the very top, you won’t leave empty-handed!

Once the Season ends, your Season Points are reset, and a 2-week cooldown period begins, though you can still continue to compete in the Gold Leagues as usual during this time. We’ve increased the number of Live Arena Points you earn in Gold Tiers to 9 as well, to match the changes in the Silver Tiers.

Live Arena Seasonal rewards include Shards, Skill Tomes, Gear, and even Avatar Frames to show off your achievements to everyone else. Most importantly, you’ll be able to earn 2 new Variable Gear Sets: Stonecleaver and Rebirth, and Relic Crafting Materials to craft 8 new Relics belonging to the new Live Arena Group.

We’ll publish the details on our social media, so keep an eye out if you want to know the exact details about the Gear Sets, Relics, and Relic Crafting Materials.

Background Multi-Battle

Background Multi-Battle will also become available in Update 10.30. We will make the feature available gradually across regions to give it a thorough live server test and ensure everything works properly. That will take a little while, but we will do our best to activate Background Multi-Battle for everyone ASAP.

Once you hit Level 45, you’ll unlock this feature for all game modes across Raid where Multi-Battle is already available. Just tap the ‘Start Background Multi-Battle’ button after you set up your Team, and you’re good to go.

Multi-Battle rules and QoL options like Gear Selling Filter and Champion Queue still apply, but you won't have to sit and watch your Champions fight. You can sort your Gear out, summon Champions; almost anything to do with account management other than watching your team run Multi-Battles. And you can use Background Multi-Battle with Super Raids at the same time!

This will be our first step towards optimizing the time players need to spend in-game to remain on top of everything. Our ultimate goal is to allow Background Multi-Battles and Arena Battles to be played simultaneously, which should make your gaming experience much smoother.

Siege: Clan Orders

A small QoL update for Siege Battles will also be introduced: Clan Leaders and Deputies will have the option to set attack flags with High, Medium, and Low priority. They’ll also get an option to keep those flags for the next Siege, so perfecting Clan Tactics will get a little easier.

Miscellaneous

• 100 extra slots will be added to Artifact and Accessory Storage.
• You can now remove Champions from Summon Slots during Progressive Chance Events while maintaining the increased chances. A notification will warn you that if the Summon Slots are empty, the Progressive Chance Event will be inactive, but your chances will remain the same when the Slot is filled again if they have already been increased.
• You’ll be able to view Champion info during Progressive Chance Events with a long tap on the featured Champion’s avatar.

Rebalance: Champions
