[h2]Arena Mode[/h2]

A preview of the new 4 vs 4 Arena Mode will be available on the dates listed below (for the first weekend). Arena Mode is focused purely on combat where two squads of 4 members battle each other to the death. This will be held for a limited time once a day for 3 days each week untilthe official version releases. The official version will incorporate player feedback, various improvements and adjustments.

*The schedule for the preview version is subject to change depending on development.

Event times (UTC)

From 11:00 pm July 7, 2023 – 4:00 am July 8, 2023
From 6:00 pm July 8, 2023 – 11:00 pm July 8, 2023
From 10:00 am July 9, 2023 – 3:00 pm July 9, 2023

After the pre-battle briefing phase, the Star Player Display feature will now display the profile banners of the 4 players from amongst allies who were most successful/active during their previous Battle.

Selecting an avatar part/emote that a player does not own now displays a tooltip on how to obtain it.
New equipment, Skill, and Talent icons that were only displayed on the item screen are now also displayed on the loadout screen.
Votes are no longer counted automatically if a player’s cursor is merely hanging over a selection without the player manually selecting it.
To adjust the visibility of the overall map, the overall map will be modified so that the ballista and cannon icons are visible only when the map is zoomed in.
The movement restrictions when casting the Mage skill Rocket Punch has been removed.
Beginner ranked players will not be matched with other ranked players under any conditions.

We are currently observing a problem where some players appear invisible. This is most likely a network packet issue and we have corrected the likely cause. We will continue to observe and investigate to see if this fix has completely resolved the issue.

On July 10th, the new Ritual Valley B map comes to 2-Army Battle!

This map is an altered version of Ritual Valley A, with elevated footholds to add greater verticality to your battles.

Please look forward to its release!

[h2]Siege Weapon Fix[/h2]

Thank you for your reports of a bug that doubles the Valor points earned when siege weapons and other structures are destroyed by fire.

We are in the process of creating a fix for this issue which we expect to be reflected by the end of July.

Therefore, the following measures have been taken as a temporary fix:

Valor points gained from destroying ballistae and cannons will be reduced from 150 to 112.
Valor points earned when anti-siege weapon foundations are destroyed will be reduced from 300 to 225

🌟 4 vs 4 Arena Mode Preview Event 🌟

Greetings Warlander!

A new game mode is coming! Welcome to Arena Mode v0.0!

In this mode, two Squads of 4 players each pit their combat skills against one another in a no holds barred deathmatch!

The first squad to wipe out all four members of the enemy Squad wins the round—and the first to win 3 rounds wins the match!

Each player starts with 9 Deploy points and consumes Deploy Points to Deploy characters depending on their Title Rank.

Carefully select which round to deploy your strongest characters and lead your Squad to victory!

Arena Mode v0.0 will be available for a limited time only. We will continue to work on improving the mode before releasing it again on a less limited basis in the future.

Enjoy Arena Mode, all weekend!

Play in the Preview for the new 4 vs 4 Arena Mode releasing Friday, July 7, 2023. Arena Mode Ver. 0.0 will be held for a limited time over several weekends.

Based on community feedback, improvements will be made to the new game mode. Once improvements have been made, we will release the official Arena Mode. The specific schedule will be announced at a later date, so please stay tuned.

Please note that the Arena Mode Preview schedule is subject to change based on how development proceeds.
