EVENT DETAILS:

This week’s Event is called ANCIENT ARROWS.  It will begin on THURSDAY, MARCH 7 and run until MONDAY, MARCH 11.  This week’s Event will be an “ALL BOOST RELIC” Event, which means you will be able to use any Relics you have left over from older Events.


Titan Details:

This week’s Event features the return of TOLLAND, the 4* Physical (Human) Ranger.  Tolland is an Archer/Spearman booster. 

Tolland’s SKILLS:
Slot 1:  Spearmen Defense Tier II Skill
Slot 2:  Archer Offensive X Skill
Slot 3:  Spearmen Defensive Tier II Skill
Slot 4:  Archer Offensive X Skill
Slot 5: Spearmen Defensive X Skill

Tolland will be available for 10k Souls.


The Rewards will also include a “Ranger Token”, which can be turned in at the Divine Altars for a Ranger of your choosing (you can choose between either Sulzar or Etalus, according to the Devs).


New Relics available in this Event:  

4* Ancient Sling (available at 8k Souls)
+ ALL Troop Damage
+ Titan Armor Piercing
+ Archer Armor Piercing

4* Ancient Crossbow (available at 11k Souls)
+ Titan and Troop Physical Damage
+ Archer Damage
+ Archer Critical

(Note:  The Devs didn’t show upgraded versions of the new Relics, so I’m unsure of the Level 10 Stats).


Also available in this Event:

4* Titan’s Soul (Titan XP Relic) at 7k Souls.
4* Ancient Sling at 8k Souls.
Epic Token at 9k Souls.
Tolland at 10k Souls.
4* Ancient Crossbow at 11k Souls.
4* Nature’s Call at 12k Souls.
4* Gilded Arc at 13k Souls.
4* Ranger Token available at 15k Souls.
4* Heartseeker 16k Souls.

(See dotdatabase.net for full details on the above Relics).


1.2x Soul Bonus for using 4* Berserker Titans.
1.1x Soul Bonus for using 3* Berserker Titans.


It is an ALLIANCE LEADERBOARD EVENT (also known as an Alliance War Event); prizes will be awarded to all Players in an Alliance according to their Alliance Ranking at the end of the Event.


LEADERBOARD RANKING PRIZES:

Top 50: Ladega (Level depends on Rank).
51-100:  4* Banner of Iron
101-250:  4K Gems
251-500:  3k Gems


In addition, there will be a Berserker Titan “Temple Takeover”.  All 4* Titans dropped from the Altars will be a Berserker.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS:

Question (Q) from a Player:  Can we get a better Relic menu?  Repeatedly swiping for an hour is not fun.
Answer (A) from a Developer: We’re looking into making a new Relic “filtering system”.  In fact, we’re working on the specs right now.  But it’s one of many changes we’re planning to make, so it might be a while.

Q:  Any plans to add Maidens as Garrison and/or Land defenders?
A:  YES.  This should be coming in version 1.32 (not the next version update, but the one after that).

Q:  Any news on increasing Relic Storage above 500 Relics?
A:  We’ve answered this before - it would be very difficult.  That being said, we’re looking into ways to reduce the size of Player Profile files - and that might lead to increased Relic Storage in the future..

Q:  Any chance of a Healing Spell (or Troop)?
A:  We thought about doing this, but it would be hard to implement because of the way Troop Battalions are set up.

Q:  Please add Divine Gems to the Daily (Monthly) Calendar.
A:  That’s a good suggestion.  We’ll look into it.

Q:  New profile pictures.  Where are they?
A:  They’re coming soon.  We plan to start releasing them the week after next (so around March 18-22).

Q:  What about a Titan-only Healing Spell?
A:  Uh, I don’t know if that would be very good.

Q:  How about a Titan that has the unique ability to take over Enemy Troops?
A:  (The Devs reminisced about an “overpowered” feature early on in the game that had a similar spell called “Preacher” - they said it was too strong and was removed from the game.  They never actually answered this question).

Q:  Fix coming for “suicidal Maidens”?
A:  Yes, but not until version 1.32.  Same with “runaway Goliaths”.

Q:  Can we get a search function on Relic Storage?
A:  We’re looking into that.  Also looking into adding rarity to the Treasure Room.

Q:  Any thoughts on Indian Gods?
A:  For sure.  It may have come up in a conversation...

TEASERS and OTHER INFORMATION:

The “Design A Relic” competition is still ongoing.  The stats for the winning Relic are:

+16-24% All Troop Health
+16-24% All Troop Armor
+14-20% All Troop Elemental Resist

If you log onto Facebook right now, you can submit your own personal artwork for what you think the Relic should look like.  The Devs said it doesn’t have to be “professional looking” - it can be a hand drawn picture on paper, or a MS Paint drawing, or a PhotoShop - they’re just looking for a general idea more than a finished product.  The top designers will be awarded Gems for their efforts.


The Devs are working on fixing the crash issues with Push Notifications - they say it should be fixed soon, but Push Notifications will remain off until all of the issues have been resolved.


The Devs mentioned (in an offhand way) that they may be working on a new Troop type.  Second time this was teased.  No more info on this..


The Devs mentioned wanting to make changes in the near future to the way Leagues work, in order to give greater Rewards for being in higher Leagues (similar to the increased XP gained for Legend League Players in the ABSOLUTELY AWFUL Monument Event last Monday.  haha).  No further info about this right now..

REMINDER:  The Devs mentioned last week that all “Weekly Events” will now end about 1.5 hours before the end of a Season (around 2:30 a.m. East Coast USA time, or 7:30 a.m. GMT) for the foreseeable future - so remember to check the in-game timer.

XXXXX

NEXT WEEK:

MONDAY:  There will be another “Kingdom Rush” Event (where you can refresh your available Neutral Lands Pool for half the cost).

MAYBE MONDAY:  A NEW “Spell Surge” Event (if the Devs can get it working), which will boost the effectiveness of Shield Spells for the week.  Shield Spells will absorb +100% the Damage and will have a larger radius, but will have -50% duration.

PROBABLY TUESDAY:  There will be a THEATERS OF WAR Event, featuring URKON.  (Note from SteelSpine:  In the past when the Devs feature a Titan in ToW it all but guaranteed that the Titan will be available in that week’s Event - so it looks TO ME like Urkon will be next week).


THE WEEK AFTER NEXT (March 18-22):  The Devs said there would be “some very fancy stuff” happening.  No further details from the Devs, other than the release of new Player Avatars.

LIVESTREAM CONTEST WINNERS:

Facebook:  Kadiz Radizel 

(Note from SteelSpine:  I am sorry for any misspellings above - the Devs announce the names, but they don’t show them written out.  If your name is similar to one of the names above, and you entered the LiveStream contest, please contact the Devs on DoT’s Facebook page to claim your prize.  Congratulations!!)

OOPS!  Last week I incorrectly stated that the Devs had not mentioned whether the Conquest Event was a Solo Leaderboard or an Alliance Leaderboard.  Apparently they DID say during the Stream that it was going to be a Solo Leaderboard Event - and I somehow missed it.  Quite a few people contacted me to point out the mistake - but the first to do so was Zuluboa via the LINE App.  I try to be as accurate as possible, but sometimes I screw up - so thank you very much, Zuluboa, for the help.  :-)

XXXXX

That’s it for this week’s LiveStream.  If I made any mistakes or left out anything important, please let me know and I will issue a correction in next week’s Recap (and give you a shoutout for the help).  

Feel free to share the info from this Recap with anyone who might find it helpful.  If you edit or cut out pieces to share, I’d appreciate it if you gave me credit.  :-)

As of right now (March 2019), the easiest way to contact me is by finding me in the game.  You can reach me in-game under the name SteelSpine (I am the Level 37 one, as of March 2019).
