Conqueror's Blade May 27th Update Log05/26/2021
Hello there Warlords!
We will update the game during our maintenance on May 27th, which will last for 2 hours and run between 12:00-14:00 (UTC+8). After the maintenance we will give all players 5,000 Bronze Coins and 200 Honour as compensation for any inconvenience caused. Be sure arrange your time accordingly.
The update will contain the following:
Important Update: Palace Guards Changes
1. Shield Charge has had its cooldown reduced to 45 seconds (down from 60).
2. A new skill: [Hold Position].
The Palace Guards squat down and assume defensive position, reducing the charge damage they take from the front, and becoming immune to crowd control effects for 5 seconds.
Their attacks while in defensive position increase the damage enemies take from the Palace Guards' other skills.
While in defensive position the Palace Guards gain access to the [Shield Advance] skill: The Palace Guards gain a quick boost to their movement speed and they move toward the enemy and knocking them back with their shields.
Important Update:Fire Lance Cavalry Changes
Northern Lance Cavalry Skill Changes:
Landslide: 1. As Landslide locks on to one target, the attack itself is difficult to land exactly right. And so we have improved upon the skill targeting and it will no longer prioritize attacking the same target.
2. Landslide's damage is somewhat delayed, making the attack slower and less accurate. We have thus changed it so that the damage triggers earlier in the attack, as well as making it more accurate.
Valour: As it was quite difficult to use Valour and reach the target cap, we've improved upon how it is calculated so that the skill may hit as many targets as possible.
Owing to these changes, we will following the update issue Doctrine Water x25 to all Warlords above level 20 who logged in to the game between March 8th and before the update on May 27th.
These balance changes will come in effect at the same time for all regions. For future updates we will also do our best to ensure that all unit changes happen at the same time for everyone, so that all of our players may enjoy the latest content along with everyone else.
I. Expired Item Reclaiming
The expired item Sword Fragment will be converted into Bronze Coins, the resulting currency being sent by mail.
II. Sigrun's Shieldmaidens Kit Changes
We've noticed that Sigrun's Shieldmaidens Kits are fairly pricy, to the extent that their cost exceeded our expectations. And so we have made the following changes to their recipe, along with lowering the Bronze Coin cost for a while:
Wrought Iron x8 (down from 10)
Finished Leather x10 (down from 12)
Pure Copper x8 (down from 12)
Hardened Wood x4 (down from 5)
What's more, the cost of buying this kit will be reduced to 4,000 Bronze Coins (down from 5,000) during the Wolves of Ragnarok season.
III. Ranked Battle Matching Popularity
IV. Event Changes
1. Free Battles will instead be played on [Hidden City].
2. All players will from May 27th, 14:00 to June 3rd, 12:00 receive a 7-day contract for Palace Guards in their mailbox. Leadership required for this unit is reduced by 10% during the event.
