Game Migrated to Another Steam Page News

For those that don’t regularly engage in open-world combat, Skill Points - used to unlock new classes - have traditionally been relatively hard to build up. Thankfully, since the recent introduction of Martial Arts Manuscripts, Skill Points can easily be converted from your Mastery Point pool. Here’s how:



1. Martial Arts Manuscripts can be sometimes found as loot in-game, or you can press F6 and buy one from the in-game Store for 50 Sovereigns. Once acquired, the item will appear in your inventory.



2. To use a Martial Arts Manuscript, press P and select the Skills tab. In the bottom-right of the screen, there should be a ‘+’ symbol next to your Skill Point total. Click it to bring up the Mastery Point Transfer panel.



3. One Martial Art Manuscript allows you to convert 100 Mastery Points into 100 Skill Points. There is no limit or cooldown on the number of manuscripts you can use - just click Transfer to complete the process.

Since Mastery Points are easier to amass than Skill Points (as they are earned from killing enemies in all types of battle), converting them is a convenient way to broaden your hero’s weapon options, especially if you’d prefer not to have to create a new warlord to try out a different class. Just remember that once converted into Skill Points, those Mastery Points can’t be changed back. To get more, you’ll need to fight!  

Please be aware that from 08:15 CEST on Thursday, August 8 (11:15pm PST August 7) the Conqueror’s Blade servers will be inaccessible. The downtime is expected to last for 4 hours.

Please refer to the Patch Notes for documented changes. Meanwhile, stay tuned to our Discord channel in case of any immediate server updates.

The summer months are all about feelin’ good and sometimes that feeling is enhanced if you look good too. Thankfully, looking great is what our new discount packs are all about, as you and your units (and even your trusty steed) will be able to turn heads on the battlefield - just before you lop them off, of course!

There are three packs on offer, each distinctly different and all with a combined discount of 30%-off the contents if bought separately. However, just like the sun, the sale can’t last forever and will end on Tuesday 13 August, so get your orders in before it’s too late! 

Eagle Batallion

• Eagle Knight hero attire set
• Rubicante horse attire set
• Eagle Guard unit attire 

If you favour an eastern-inspired look for you and your troops, this selection is for you. The iconic Eagle Knight hero attire set is perfectly matched with the Rubicante mount set, and your units will look just as impressive in the Eagle Guard uniform.

Hounds of War

• Fleur-de-Lys unit attire
• Vadasz Corps unit attire 
• Eagle Guard unit attire

This pack if for those that put their units before themselves (and that’s not a dig at archers and musketeers, by the way). Within you’ll find three very fitting attires for your most loyal troops, whether they’re melee, ranged or mounted.

Grail Seekers

• Runic Knight's hero attire set
• Order horse attire set
• Fleur-de-Lys unit attire

The Runic Knight offers the quintessential Conqueror’s Blade look (having starred in a couple of our promo videos) and together with the Order Set and Fleur-de-Lys unit attire, this selection captures something of the Teutonic heraldry of the European knights of old. If you’re off crusading around the Mediterranean this summer, pack accordingly!

As good as they all look - and they all look absolutely fabulous - be aware that all hero, horse and unit attires are purely cosmetic items. Don’t expect to put them on and be able to hit harder or run faster. You will, however, cut an imposing figure on the battlefield! 

DarkTriad is one of the largest and most well-established houses on the Europe East server. We spoke with its founder and leader TheKeeper from their stronghold in Maoyang.

WHEN DID YOU FIRST HEAR ABOUT CONQUEROR'S BLADE?

We first heard about the game last summer. We needed something new and exciting after Total War: Arena was shut down. We chose Conqueror's Blade!

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO FOUND A HOUSE?

We had a core team of about fifteen Total War: Arena players, who took part in every CBT stage. We started with the ordinary "Why don't we give it a fun run?", and eventually gathered a great community of players. Today we have both seasoned veterans and newbies, who joined us during the CBT and OBT.

WHAT SETS DARKTRIAD APART FROM OTHER HOUSES?

One of our House rules: everyone can have fun their own way. Do you want your own raid? Go ahead! Do you want to gather a group? Whatever floats your boat. Do the right thing and no one can stop you. Members of the House belong to different age groups, and yet we support free communication, trying to stay together on the same page.

WHO ARE YOUR MOST TRUSTED ASSOCIATES AND WHAT POSITION DO THEY OCCUPY?

Phobos, SocialistHippie, Merder, Chidori, and Eclipse - we've been together since the old times. They still play a role in House development. There are some new active House members, too. They are Danek, PRAV, CaCao, and SithLord.

ARE THERE ANY HOUSES THAT YOU ADMIRE OR SEE AS COMPETITION?

To paraphrase Henry Palmerston, "The DarkTriad has no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow."

 

Many thanks to TheKeeper for answering our questions. If you know of a house that is deserving of similar recognition that we should profile in the future article, please make your nomination via our Discord channel.

Via the release of a new patch this week, war has finally come to the Borderlands. Aptly, we celebrated this by insisting that players kill a million units - which they promptly did!

Yep, just another week in Conqueror's Blade!
