Gems of War News

We have made some changes to the UI around Troop upgrades. These changes are intended to make Troop Upgrades easier for new players, and faster for existing players, and also allow us to add new orb types.

• The Troop Card popup in the Troop Collection Menu has new buttons:
  • Arrow Button - This is the Recruit button for a team (Controller still uses same shortcut)
    
  • Level Up Button - This takes players to the new Troop Level Up Menu
    
  • More Upgrades Button - This is where players can do all other Troop Upgrades, as well as accessing Screenshot mode.
• Troop Levelling is now found in its own menu that players can access from the Troop Card Popup.
  
• The Troop Level menu will only have 1 means to level a troop, by choosing the level. The menu will default to the highest level the player can purchase (based on Souls amount and/or Rarity).
  • (Adventurer's Path Troop Level restrictions will also affect Max level possible).
• Players can still see how the Troop's Skills change for each level in this menu.
  
• In the More Upgrades menu, players will start on the Troop Overview Menu. This will present all Troop information (similar to the screenshot mode), so they are able to clearly view all information for their troop.
  • Players can use the Camera button in the top left corner to switch it into Screenshot mode.
• The Gear Button on the bottom Left side will slide out the Screenshot options (just like in the current version) so players wishing to set up a screenshot for the Troop may still do so.
  
• The Button underneath that in the bottom left side is the Skills button which will display the Troop’s Skills and a breakdown of how the Skills are calculated (e.g. how much Attack comes from Kingdoms etc.).
  
• The Traits tab menu behaves exactly as the Traits menu currently.
  
• The Ascension tab menu also behaves the same, however we have moved the Base Rarity and number of copies a player owns to the left hand side, and added a button for ascending all Troops which will be clearer for players to understand.
  
• The Elite Level tab menu behaves exactly as the Elite Level menu currently.
  
• The Orbs tab menu behaves exactly as the Orbs menu currently. Players will also be able to use their Orbs of Glory from here (more on those below).
  
• The Disenchant tab menu behaves exactly as the Disenchant menu currently.
  
• We have updated the tutorials for Troop Leveling, Troop Traiting, and Troop Ascension to fit these new menu changes.
  
• To help reduce time higher level spend upgrading their troops, we have added a button on the Overview menu for Players level 101+, that will allow players to Level, Trait and Ascend the Troop they are looking at, all at once using any available resources the Player has.
  

We have made some improvements to the Holiday Event.

• We have changed it so the Holiday Event Shop will be available for 1 week after the event ends, so players are able to spend any left over event currency. (This allows players who were in battles when the event ended to still spend their currency).
  
• We have introduced Golden Holiday Battle Energy that players can use to fight battles instead of their normal Holiday Battle Energy.
  
• Golden Holiday battles will give bonus event currency for Winning, as well as a small amount of event currency if they lose.
  
• Bonus event currency is a flat amount (so it will be the same regardless of a player's Difficulty in the Event).
  
• If Players have any remaining Golden Holiday Battles when the event ends they will be able to exchange it in the Event Shop for Gem Keys or Event Currency (during that extra week).
  
• Players can purchase Golden Holiday Battle energy from the Battle menu.
  
• Players will get bonus rewards after purchasing Golden Holiday Battles 3 or 5 times (this only happens once per event - once at 3 purchases, and once again at 5).
  
• We have added new things to the Event Shop that will appear when in the Event Shop once the previous offer has been fully purchased:
  • Golden Pet: This offer will appear after all the stock for the Pet Offer has been purchased.
    
  • White Pet Food Offer: This offer will appear after all the stock for the Pet Food Offer has been purchased.
    
  • Legendary Medal Offer: This offer will appear after all the stock for the TraitstoneOffer has been purchased.
    
  • Major Orb of Chaos Offer: This offer will appear after all the stock for the Orb of Power Offer has been purchased.
• These new offers can be purchased repeatedly.
  

We have added several new orbs to the game that players will be able to collect and use.

• Orbs of Forging: These orbs can be used to temper Weapons that use Forge Scrolls.
  
• Orbs of Ingots: These orbs can be used to temper Weapons that use Ingots.
  
• Orbs of Minions: These orbs can be used to increase the Max Level of a Pet.
  
• Orbs of Glory: These orbs can be used to earn Elite Levels on a Troop.
  

All Orbs (except for Orbs of Glory) have a regular version (whose effect will trigger for 1 level) and a Major (whose effect will trigger for all levels). This matches other Orbs currently (e.g. Orb of Growth = +1 Level and Major Orb of Growth = Max Level, etc.).

Orbs of Glory are unique as they can only be used on their matching Elite Level.

• Lesser Orb of Glory: Bronze Elite Level
  
• Orb of Glory: Silver Elite Level
  
• Major Orb of Glory: Gold Elite Level
  

The Lesser Orb of Glory can only be found in Chaos Orbs, while Orb + Major Orbs of Glory can be earned from Major Chaos Orbs. Orbs of Minions + Orbs of Glory are much rarer to find from Chaos Orbs than other orbs (almost as rare as an Orb of Power).

The new orbs can be used from the following places:

• Orbs of Forging: Tempering Menu for Forge Scroll Weapons
  
• Orbs of Ingots: Tempering Menu for Ingot Weapons
  
• Orbs of Minions: Max Level for a Pet
  
• Orbs of Glory: The Orb Tab Menu in the “Troops - More Options” menu.
  

We have added a new spell mechanic - Choice. Choice allows players to pick between 2 possible spell effects to cast.

Players will get to encounter Choice when it is released as part of the next new Kingdom, early next year.




We have added 2 new Warbands (Mech Masters + Hunting Pack) into the game. They will be available with Weekly reset.

• Mech Masters will replace Dark Assassin
  
• Hunting Pack will replace Poison Fangs
  

We have added a new Gnome, the Dragonite Gnome. He will have a similar chance to appear in regular and PvP battles as the Cursed Gnome.

We have also introduced Dragonite Gnome Bait that players can use to encounter a Dragonite Gnome in their next battle.

Dragonite Gnome Bait will be used if no Pet Gnome Bait or Cursed Gnome Bait is available.




We have 2 new Achievements for this update:

• Dragonflight: Match 100 Dragon Gems
  
• Gnomeo & Dragonet: Defeat 10 Dragonite Gnomes
  

• We have added a new Heroic Gem for a future Campaign.
  
• We have added popups in game to promote when a event is starting, ending soon, or to promote while an event is running for the following events:
  • Campaigns
    
  • Kingdom Pass
    
  • Legends Reborn
    
  • Holiday Events
• We have changed the Kingdom Pass, Legend Reborn and Holiday Events to unlock for players at level 10, as those events were causing some confusion to newer players.
  
• We have made collecting Keys in the Adventurer's Path easy to do, so if a player accidentally taps the Adventure button instead of the Keys it will collect the Keys instead. Players can use the Adventure button when no Keys need to be collected to continue playing quests.
  

• We have fixed an issue where some new players were able to access quests that are no longer in use (Stonehammer's Vault).
  
• We have fixed an issue where the old event medal converting to Medal of Seasons mail would sometimes also target any new medals for the current event.
  
• We have fixed an issue with Legends Reborn in Broken Spire that affected starting boards for other game modes.
  
• We have fixed an issue where the Treasure Hunt board would have invisible Gems after playing Legends Reborn.
  
• We have fixed autoplay from appearing in Treasure Hunts.
  
• We have made several fixes to text or translations within the game.
  
• We have fixed an assortment of smaller issues.

Broken Spire Kingdom Pass

To celebrate the rework of Broken Spire, we will be running a Kingdom Pass for the next 5 weeks. This Kingdom Pass will introduce 4 new Troops and 2 new Weapons to Broken Spire.

Kingdom Pass Battlecrasher: Pyrophemus



During this Kingdom Pass, Pyrophemus is a semi-rare encounter in PvP and Explore, with the chance to encounter him decreasing after players have done so 5 times that day. Defeating him will give 1 Kingdom Pass Crown. Each Crown earned will assist players progressing through the Kingdom Pass. Each Kingdom Pass level needs 5 Kingdom Crowns. No more than 10 Crowns can be earned per day.

(His chance to appear will reset with daily reset.)

Kingdom Pass Rewards Sneak Peek


We have a sneak peek at a few of the rewards that will be available from the either Reward Track in this Kingdom Pass



When the Kingdom Pass ends, players will be able to earn these unique rewards in the following ways:

• Flame Rhynax + Fire Beetle - They can be found in both reward tracks. They will start appearing in chests 2-3 months after the Kingdom Pass ends.
  
• Pyrophemus - He can be found in the Royal reward track. He will start appearing in chests 2-3 months after the Kingdom Pass ends.
  
• The Molten Ward - This weapon is available in the Free Reward Track. Once the Kingdom Pass ends, craftable from the Soulforge during weekly events in Broken Spire.
  
• Slashing Embers - This weapon is available in the Royal Reward Track. Once the Kingdom Pass ends, craftable from the Soulforge during weekly events in Broken Spire.
  
• Minfernus - This Pet can be found in both reward tracks and can be encountered as a random Pet Rescue when defeating Pet Gnomes.
  

New Tarot Card: Ace of Wands



The Tarot card for this event is the Ace of Wands. Once this Kingdom Pass ends, it will go into the Vault after 2-3 months.



Legends Reborn: Broken Spire

For the next 2 weeks we will have a Legends Reborn event set in the Broken Spire. Legends Reborn can be accessed from either the Games Menu or the Broken Spire Kingdom Menu (if the storyline has been completed previously).


Broken Story Update

As part of the celebration of the Broken Spire Rework, we have gone back and updated the story. This updated story has been rewritten to use the new conversation style, and the battles have been updated to include a greater variety of enemies to fight against.


Replay the Story

You will be able to play/replay the story for Broken Spire during this event. The story will have multiple difficulties that can be played through as new difficulties unlock over time. Each time a new difficulty is completed, players will earn a copy of one of the new Pets.

Quest rewards from normal playthroughs of the story (Bonus Income, etc) will not be earned if playing the Story through Legends Reborn.


Earn Rewards

Defeat Brown Enemies to collect Lanterns to be able to earn Reward Tiers of the Legends Reborn event, including more new pets. Collecting the rewards for each track within a Tier will unlock access to the Bonus reward for that Tier.


New Pets



We have several new Pets that Players will be able to collect from the event:

• Ogress' Calf - This pet will buff the stats of the Ogress. It can be earned from the Free Reward Track in this Legends Reborn event.
  
• Flame Troll's Pup - This pet will buff the stats of the Flame Troll. It can be earned by completing playthroughs of the Broken Spire story within this Legends Reborn event at different difficulties.
  
• Sheggra's Slime - This pet will buff the stats of Sheggra. It can be earned by purchasing from the Gem Reward Track.
  
• Infernus' Imp - This pet will buff the stats of Infernus. It can be earned by purchasing from the Premium Reward Track.
  

Pets will be available as possible Pet Gnome encounters in 3-4 weeks time after the event ends.

• Holiday Events are a new type of event with a 2 week duration, to celebrate various holidays throughout the year.
• Holiday Events contain a series of battles in a kingdom.
• Players get up to 3 Holiday Battles each day that they can use to play battles during the event.
  • Holiday Battles work similar to Delve Attempts so any unused battles (below the 3 free battles) do not carry over to the next day. (e.g. If a player has 1/3 battles remaining at daily reset, the event will reset it to 3 Battles, and the unused battle is not carried over).
  • Holiday Battles have a soft cap of 3. However, purchasing more Holiday Battles allows players to exceed this cap. Players will not lose any Holiday Battles that exceed the cap. (E.g. If a player purchases Holiday battles so the number of battles is 6/3 then at Daily reset they will continue to have 6/3 Holiday Battles).
  • Players can purchase more Holiday Battles via Gems from the Event Shop (more information below).
  • Holiday Battle attempts will reset to 3 attempts at daily reset (7am GMT) each day.
• The battles start at Tier I, and every 5 battles (win or lose) the player will be given the choice to increase or decrease the Tier.
  • Battle Levels at Tier I will be 10-19, and will increase by +10 every Tier.
  • Battles at Tier I will reward +20 Event Currency (more information below), and that will increase by +1 every Tier
• Players are restricted to using a single color for the Troops and Weapons they can take into Holiday events battles (similar to Tower of Doom).
• The Holiday Event is accessed from the Game Menu, and is split into 3 tabs: Overview, Fight, and Event Shop.
• On the Holiday-Fight Tab, players will have 3 battles to choose from, whose teams are each built from an Epic, Legendary, or Mythic Troop in the Holiday Event Kingdom.
• Each battle has an independent randomly-chosen level within the level range based on the Player's current Tier in the event.
• After completing a battle (win or lose), 3 new battles will be generated to choose between.
• Each Holiday Event has a currency unique to that event. For example, the first Halloween Event, the “Lost Souls of Carmina” will reward “Lost Souls” as its currency. These are only useful within their event, and will be lost at the end of the event.
• Players can spend the Event Currency they earn from an Holiday Event in the Holiday-Shop Tab. Some of the rewards there can be purchased more than once.
  • New Legendary Troop
  • New Pet: This Pet will give Skill Point bonus to the Legendary Troop.
  • New Armor Set: This is a new cosmetic armor set.
  • Traitstones: Get Traitstones to fully trait the new Legendary Troop
  • Pet Food: Get enough Pet Food to fully level the new Pet
  • Orb of Power
• The New Legendary Troop will go into chests 4-5 weeks after the Holiday Event ends.
• The new Pet will be available from Pet Gnomes immediately.
• These items may be different for future Holiday Events.
• As previously mentioned players can spend gems to purchase a Holiday Battles Bundle with 3 additional Holiday Battles. This bundle can be purchased multiple times, each time costing 50 Gems more than the previous time. The bundle's cost will reset at daily reset.

Our first Holiday Event, The Lost Souls of Carmina, will begin at Weekly Reset on October 24th for Halloween.

• Power Unlimited: Earn a Orb of Power from a Holiday Event

• We have improved the Dungeon Offers so players can interact anywhere on the offer in order to purchase it. It now has a help button on the offer if players wish to view the help text.

• We have changed the Dungeon Door selection to be more noticeable for players using controllers.
• We have added a new Heroic Gem for a future Campaign.

• We have fixed a text issue in the Kingdom Menu when the Kingdom was Level 20.
• We have fixed a text issue on Switch where the description of the Daily Deal offer in the Dungeon menu was overlapping with the display of the cost.
• We have fixed a visual issue in Tower of Doom where the "Use Scroll" number was overlapping with the text on the button.
• We have fixed an issue where the Dungeon would display as complete after daily reset despite no battles being completed.
• We have fixed an issue where damage would not be displayed when a Giant Gem exploded a skull.
• We have fixed an issue where the Pet Rescue alert for Moist Owlette was displaying Gray Malkin.
• We have fixed an issue where players would get a Token Mismatch Error when attempting to reset their Password.
• We have fixed an issue where players would be able to purchase one-time purchase packs or bundles multiple times by interacting with the offer multiple times before purchases were resolved.
• We have fixed an issue where Dispond's Legendary Trait would ignore Mana Drain immunity.
• We have fixed an issue where Troops could be summoned and gain the traits of the decreased Troops from the same team slot.
• We have fixed some screen resolution display issues where your Gem count would appear partially off screen in Dungeons, or the Settings + Game Speed buttons were going off screen for some devices.
• We have fixed an issue where opening multiple doors in succession in Dungeons can cause an error message to appear.
• We have fixed an assortment of smaller issues.

We have made an update to the Dungeon to make it feel more like players are exploring a dungeon, and adding new ways for players to interact with it.

• The Dungeon Menu has had an update to have 2 tabs in the Menu. One for the main dungeon, and one for the new Dungeon Shop (see below).
  
• Dungeons now have a Level that affects the difficulty of the Dungeon. The Dungeon Level can never go below 1 and can never be higher than 20.
  
• Dungeon Level will also affect the rewards that can be earned in the Dungeon, so completing Dungeons on harder difficulties will give more rewards.
  
  • Shards +1 per level
    
  • Jewels +1 per 4 levels
    
  • Diamonds +1 per 10 levels
    
  • The Megaboss gives double rewards
• Players will have 6 Dungeon doors to pick from, behind each door is either a Battle, Trap or Boon Room. Each Dungeon will have 3 Battle Rooms, 2 Traps, and 1 Boon Room.
  
• Battles are the same battles that players encountered before with the exception of the final Boss for the Dungeon. We have added 7 new Dungeon Bosses for players to encounter, one for each Day.
  
• These new Dungeon Bosses are Gem Dragon Mythic bosses, each themed to their Dungeon.
  
• Players can now fight Dungeon Battles in any order once they encounter them in the Dungeon. (E.g. If the Player finds the Battle against the Gem Dragon, they can fight that before they do any other battles).
  
• Traps will apply debuffs to the player in any future Battle in the dungeon for that day. Trap effects are reset daily, so Traps will not affect the following day.
  
• If Players manage to defeat all 3 Battles without encountering a Trap, they will earn a Perfect Run which will earn them Dragonite, a new resource that can be used in the Soulforge.
  
• Boon Rooms are 1 of 3 types of Rooms - Altar, Treasure or Stairs.
  
• Altars are the reverse of Traps, and will grant a buff to Ally Troops in all future Battles for that day. Like Traps, Altars will only apply for that day, and are lost when Daily Reset occurs.
  
• Treasures will give bonus Jewels for that day's Dungeon. (e.g. A Treasure Room in the Dungeon of Fire will give Rubies).
  
• Stairs can either go up or down. Stairs that go up will lower the Dungeon's Level, while Stairs that go down will increase the Dungeon's level.
  
• Players can choose whether they wish to use the Stairs to change their Dungeon Level or if they want to stay on the same Dungeon Level.
  
• If the player uses the Stairs the new Dungeon Level will apply to any unfought battles, and Treasures that have not yet been encountered.
  

• We have updated the Dungeon Shop making it easier for players to find and view the offers.
  
• Gem Bounties no longer require players to defeat a Dungeon Boss to in order for it to be available for Purchase.
  
• We have added 3 new offers for players to spend Gems on to get resources for the Soulforge, including Cursed Runes and Dragonite.
  

We have added new Soulforge Recipes that use Dragonite to be crafted.

• One of these recipes is the Gem Dragon Egg. This recipe will craft either Sapphirax, Emeraldrin, Rubirath, Topasarth, Amethialas or Garnetaerlin.
  
• Two Legendary Weapon recipes require these Troops in order to craft them.
  
• One Mythic Weapon that needs both Legendary Weapons to craft.
  
• Crafting all the Mythic Weapon will allow players to craft the final Gem Dragon, Diamantina.
  

We have made some improvements to the Kingdom Dailys so that it will try to give players more offers better targeted for the Kingdom Power Level Tasks. We will continue to make further improvements in the future.

We have also added some new offers to help fill in gaps that were not being offered previously. Some of these include:

• Forge Scroll Offer
  
• Epic Medal Offer
  
  • (This is similar to the Epic Medal offer that VIP players have been able to get but the price is different).
• Legendary Medal Offer
  
  • (This is similar to the Legendary Medal offer that VIP players have been able to get but the price is different).
• Mythic Medal Offer
  

These changes will be released over the next week.

• We have fixed a visual issue where Guild Bonuses sometimes appeared deactivated in the Guild menu on a Statue even though the Bonus was active.
  
• We have fixed an issue where the game crashed or soft locked when finishing the Broken Spire Quest line and then navigating to Adventure Path > Adventure.

• We have fixed an issue where selecting the same Reward Tier Twice in the Legend’s Reborn Event causes a CLIFFY error.
  
• We have fixed an issue where Souls rewarded from Gnome and Battlecrasher Loot, Adventure Board and Delve Room Souls were not being added to the Shrine of Treachery.
  
• We have fixed an issue where the next Faction Assault was shown as starting in “%” instead of the correct amount of time if you had the Games menu open when the current Faction Assault ended.
  
• We have fixed an issue when playing with a controller where you can select ‘Cast’ on a Troop’s Spell, then before selecting an enemy to target, turn on Autoplay, causing a soft lock.
  
• We have fixed an issue in the Weapons Filter where Weapons could be sorted by ‘Amount’ despite only being able to own 1 of each Weapon.
  
• We have fixed an assortment of smaller issues.
  

• Legends Reborn is a 2 week long event that runs in a Kingdom.
  
• The chosen Kingdom will have an icon on the Kingdom's name plate on the World Map (similar to when a Quest is available for the Kingdom has bonus Mythstones).
  
• Legends Reborn can be accessed from 3 places:
  
  • Games Menu
    
  • News Menu
    
  • Kingdom Menu for chosen Kingdom in Legends Reborn - Players who have completed the storyline for the Kingdom that Legends Reborn is happening in will be able to access the event from that Kingdom’s Menu.
• While Legends Reborn is active, players can replay the Kingdom's Storyline (from the Legends Reborn Menu).
  
  • Players will not gain the Quest Bonus Income, Unlock Challenges, or Troop rewards that may have been gained when playing the Storyline Quests normally.
    
  • Players will not be able to replay the Kingdom's Class Quest.
• The Kingdom Storyline in Legends Reborn will have a starting difficulty of Level 20, and increase in difficulty for each battle played.
  
• Playthroughs at a higher difficulty will unlock during the event.
  
  • DIFFICULTY II (Lv 50): Day 3
    
  • DIFFICULTY III (Lv 80): Day 6
    
  • DIFFICULTY IV (Lv 110): Day 9
    
  • DIFFICULTY V (Lv 140): Day 12
• Each playthrough will unlock copies of a special Pet that will buff an Epic Rarity Troop from that Kingdom.
  
• Also during a Legends Reborn event, players will be able to earn a “Kingdom Collectible” for the event by defeating Enemies of that Kingdom's primary color (in any game mode, except for Training mode).
  
• Earning this Kingdom collectible will unlock Reward Tiers for the Legends Reborn event.
  
• In each Tier there are 4 types of Rewards a player can collect:
  
  • FREE: These rewards are free to collect, and contain a Pet that will buff a Troop of Ultra-Rare or Lower Rarity.
    
  • GEM: These rewards can be purchased using Gems, and contain a Pet that will buff a Legendary Rarity Troop, as well as other rewards (including Cursed Gnome bait)
    
  • CASH: These rewards can be purchased using real money, and contain a Pet that will buff a Mythic Rarity Troop, as well as other rewards (including a Orb of Power).
    
  • BONUS: These rewards become available if a player collects all the other rewards in the Tier.
• A player cannot collect a reward in a higher tier unless they have collected the matching reward in a lower tier.
  
  • E.g. Players would need to collect the Tier I Gem Reward before they would be able to collect/purchase the Tier II Gem Reward. There is no need to purchase the Tier I Cash Reward though in order to get the Tier II Gem Reward or the Tier II Free Reward.
• All pets available in Kingdoms Reborn will also be available from Pet Gnomes.
  
• Legends Reborn does not have a set schedule when it will run (compared to other events like Guild Wars).

(Our first Legends Reborn Event will start at weekly reset on August 1st)



Some platforms are now requiring all games to include in-game account deletion. So players on Steam, iOS and Android will now be able to delete their account from within the game.
(We will be looking to bring this feature to Xbox, PlayStation and Switch Players in a future update.)

• In the Settings Menu > Account, players will find a new Delete Account button that will allow them to start the countdown to delete their account.
  
• Once a player confirms they would like to delete their account, it will start a 20 day timer before the deletion will take place
  
  • There will be a confirmation screen after the player decides to start the countdown so players are aware it's active.
    
  • We have put in a 20 day timer to prevent players from accidentally having their account deleted.
• Players who have started the timer will get a pop up message every time after daily reset reminding them that the deletion countdown is in progress and how many days remain.
  
• Players can change their mind at any time and just click on the Delete Account button again to stop it.
  
  • Stopping an account deletion, and then restarting it will reset the countdown back to 20 days.
• After the countdown ends the game will then delete the player's account from the game server similar to a GDPR request (for those familiar with this). THIS CANNOT BE REVERSED.
  
  • This will include any purchases that have been made so please make sure before you decide to delete your account.

We have made some visual changes to the following things, as part of an ongoing upgrade to various game elements. This is visual only. Expect more things to be upgraded into a similar style in future updates over the next 12 months.

• Headings on menu with Tab Navigation
  
• Tab Navigation Bars
  
• Green Buttons in the game
  
  • These Buttons will have a few color variations based on what they do in the game.

We have 2 new Achievements for this update:

• Kingdom Crusher: Complete a Kingdom Story 5 times in a single Legends Reborn event.
  
• If I Were a Rich Man: Collect 300 Kingdom currency in a single Legends Reborn event.

  • Troop Type
    
  • Talent Tree
• We have added a new Heroic Gem to the game for a future Campaign.
