Hi Warlords：
In the August 29 update, we left a bit of a mystery and a few more voices in the developer log. Not yet a day has passed, we already could not wait to invite Warlords to discuss about the Units experience.

In this morning's maintenance update, we fixed one of the most important bugs we found: Lvmax Units will still share the experience. After that we realized a problem: we haven't explained the settlement rules of the Units experience in detail. This developer log is an opportunity to share to all Warlords.

Cultivation of Units
First of all, we want the Units to be a growing band of brothers. They need to grow in real battle, rather than gain experience on bench like an exp baby. Our current approach is that the Units will gain more experience if they really joined battle. The specific settlement rules are as follows:

In the settlement, each Units will gain two parts of experience according to the military exploits in the battle: more experience in the battle, and less experience in the guarantee. Experience in the battle will be generated by real-played Units except some special ones (gold Units and lvmax Units) will not produce experience. The minimum guarantee experience will be generated regardless of whether the Units joined battle or not to ensure a stable income lower limit.

The direction of subsequent changes
1. UI optimize
We found that based on the current experience settlement UI, Warlords can easily interpret the settlement rules as "I got these Units experience and then allocate it to my Units according to certain rules". This is actually a mistake we made in UX design and will be fixed as soon as possible in coming update.

2. Link Units experience to military exploits
Based on the current settlement rules, we foresee that it will inevitably lead to abnormal behaviors such as "change Units at the supply point to the one who wants to practice, and then change again", which we do not want to see. We hope to use a more objective and reasonable way to generate the experience that the Units should gain. Therefore, we will start to optimize the settlement rules with military exploits.

All above is what we want to say. The following time belongs to all warlords. Please let us know your thoughts on the settlement rules of the Units experience below, this will help us a lot.

Warlords, well met:

We know that a lot of you are looking forward to this update. Not only to get rid of a few bugs, but you are also expecting more and more new content. You Warlords may have heard that the CN version of CB is live now, and there are some doubts from it. Please relax your mind, this will not affect the normal pace of Frontier which is directly operated by our studio. Although we have very few people, the service is sometimes not enough, but our attention and love for SEA server will not be discounted, and we will make every effort to cultivate this small land of our own.
Recently, we also received a lot of feedback, hoping to see more new content in the game: like brand new units, new game-play modes, levels and etc. In fact, because we need to take care of CN, European and American server as well as SEA server, which is operated entirely by ourselves, we need some time to coordinate with the designer team to develop a reasonable and informative update plan, which is our most important task at this stage.
Finally, for the issue of the maintenance that you Warlords are concerned about, we are considering putting it at a fixed time each week, which also helps everyone arrange their own time better.
Last but not the least, please allow me introduce the patch notes of this update below:

First, added Unit souls to Secret Vaults.
After the opening of the search function, there are still many Warlords who have not obtained enough unit souls to assemble the units. We hope that the Warlords can use the unit soul to cultivate their own units. So, we decided to add normal, common, uncommon unit souls to the Secret Vaults.

Second, important fixes:
- Received feedback from some Warlords that after the unit reaches the max level, it will still share the experience from battle settlement, which not only wastes the experience, but also affects the will of the Warlords to us the max level units. In this update, we have already fixed this problem to ensure that the experience of the units will only be distributed to the units that have not reached the max level;
- After character died in battle, there was a bug that you could not switch the third-person perspective of the teammates by clicking the mouse, observing the battlefield situation at that time, but only staying at the death interface. We have already fixed this problem in this update;
- When some Warlords are fight with Rebels in the open world, there is a certain probability that the enemy soldiers will continue to spawn even after they kill the enemy BOSS, which not only consumes the game time, but also causes unnecessary loss of the units. We have fixed this issue to ensure that the Warlords can end the battle normally.

Third, hero balance:
1. Longsword&shield
- The attack by the Sword Shield in the defense is now unable to cause stagger effect on heroes, and the stagger effect on the unit is reduced.

2. Dual blades
- Added a stealth effect to the Dual blades when uses dismount ability for 3 seconds.

3. Poleaxe
- Added a small amount of blunt area damage when Poleaxe uses dismount ability.

Fourth, Unit balance:
We have observed that some Warlords are switching Barricade of pike units very frequently, resulting in the effect of Barricade exceeding our expectations, so we added a short cd while switching.
- The unit skill: Barricade now has a short CD of 3s.

Fifth, Siege tower
In order to prevent the Range classes from easily stopping the siege tower by killing the unit who are pushing the tower(even kill one unit will stop the tower for a while), we have modified the minimum number of pushing from 8 to 7.

Sixth, Unit souls
For the unit soul which can give the new skill to unit, it no longer can be assembled on the unit that already has the skill.

Seven, Guidance price for uncommon weapon blueprints
We received feedback from players that the price for uncommon weapon blueprints is too low compared to crafted equipment. In this update, we have lifted the guidance price for uncommon weapon blueprints.

Eight, system optimization
- Optimized the resolution of hero interface and attire interface;
- Optimized the effects of the frontline camps during construction and offense;
- Optimized the frequency of unit shouts in some PVE levels;

Dear Warlords:
Good to see you again. This time I brought one good news, one bad news. Let's start with the bad news: The activity lifts bronze income, which opened on August 21st - August 25th, has officially ended. The good news is that from August 26th, we officially launched the adjustment of Bronze income as follow:

1. Increase the Bronze income from Battle points
2. Improve the bonus of winning
3. The income adjustment is consistent with the test activity period.

In fact, during the five-day event, most of you were happy with the changes. At the same time, we also found from the data that the high tier units had higher appearance rates. Meanwhile, the various core indicators in the data, such as the winning percentage and level balance, also show that the ecology of game is not affected by the activity, we are actually very happy to figure that out.

Every time the game is updated and optimized, it is hoped that the game's ecology and experience will get better and better. We are willing to work with all the Warlords to continuously polish and optimize, presenting a better world of Conqueror’s Blade.
