Titan Details:

This week’s Event features the debut of OAKENTAUR, the 4* Poison Infiltrator.  Similar to Artemis, OAKENTAUR has the ability to Summon Omega Panthers to the battlefield.  Omega Panthers have an extra 25% CRITICAL and +30% SPEED, but they deal -40% DAMAGE compared to regular Panthers.  In addition, OAKENTAUR can Summon a total of four Omega Panthers - whereas Artemis Summons three.

SKILLS:

Slot 1:  +56% Titan Armor Piercing, +56% Titan Poison Resist, +1 Summon Omega Panther Spell

Slot 2:  Titan Offensive Tier III Skill (Damage, Armor Piercing OR Critical)

Slot 3:  +180% Panther Damage, +1 Summon Omega Panther Spell

Slot 4:  Titan Offensive X Skill (Damage OR Armor Piercing)

Slot 5:  +44% Panther Critical, +2 Summon Omega Panther Skill

OAKENTAUR is available for 18k Souls.

+ Titan and Troop Lightning Resist

4* Wild Mushroom

+ Panther Critical

+ All Troop Armor

4* Toxic Trinket

(NOTE:  The 4* Toxic Trinket Relic can only be equipped by Poison Infiltrators.  Also, just like other “Soul Bonus Relics”, the +20% is only applied to the BASE SOULS - it does not stack with Event Relics - so, in essence, it grants an extra 2-3 Souls per attack).

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS:

Question (Q) from a Player:  Are there any plans to add “Elemental effects” to other Elements - similar to how Fire burns down trees?

Answer (A) from a Developer:  Good question.  There are no plans at the moment, but we’ll look into that.

Q:  Will there be Starter Packs for this Event?

A:  There will be a number of Starter Packs and Bundles available for this Event.  We can’t say which ones right now, but keep an eye out for the offers.

Q:  When will you fix Titans running in circles?

A:  We actually just talked about that this week.  We’re working on a fix.

Q:  Will the Minotaur’s Ring Relic give a boost for the Oakentaur Event?

A:  No, that Relic gives a boost to Iron (Physical) Souls - so it will not work for a Poison Event.

Q:  Why can’t Staff of Storms be equipped by all Titans?

A:  I believe it’s because that is a Lightning Relic.

Q:  Are you working on Relic filtering so we can switch between viewing A-Z and Z-A?

A:  Maybe.  (Note:  Sounds to me like they’re working on this feature).

Q:  When is Kronos coming back?

A:  Kronos is coming back, but we don’t want to give a date yet.

Q:  When is the next update?

A:  We hit a few snags, but Version 1.33 should be coming out soon.  We’ll talk more about it next week.

Q:  Any plans for a Relic Forging Event?

A:  YES.  Matt is not here today, but he has been working on something like that.  It is in testing now.

Q:  Fix the problem with hackers!

A:  We’re working on that - especially on hackers who do something at the last moment during an Event.

Q:  Any plans for Alliance Wars?

A:  There are some things in our backlog focusing on Alliance War stuff.  Nothing we can talk about right now, but we’re looking it.

Q:  When is Lubu coming back?

A:  He was exclusive to Chinese New Year, so he won’t come back soon - but he will be back eventually.

Q:  New 5* Relics still coming?

A:  Yes.  We’ll be able to show them off either during next week’s LiveStream or the week after that.

Q:  Any fix coming for Goliaths walking off the map and walking through things?

A:  We’re working on that.

Q:  Can we get a “lock” feature so we don’t accidentally Fuse away our favorite Relics?

A:  That’s a good idea.  We’ll look into that.

Q:  How about putting 5* Relics in an Event?

A:  No plans for that at the moment - they’ll be staying in the Divine Gem Altars for now.  That may change in the future, though.

Q:  Zeus walks too slow.  Please speed him up.

A:  We can look into that.  Let us know if you think he’s too slow.

TEASERS and OTHER INFORMATION:

The Devs made a statement regarding the Firestryke Event.  They said during the Event there were a lot of Server issues that took place, and “a lot of problems internally” have been “solved now, and should not happen again”.  As a result of those issues, they gave out some compensation packs to players.  Everyone in the game should have received something, and if you have not received anything it should be waiting for you to collect it in the section of the Temple where you can buy Gems.  They mentioned that your League, Position and Activity Level determined which reward you received.

—

The Devs said they did not do a LiveStream last week because there were “multiple people away” and they had “technical issues”.  

—

The Devs said that this week’s “Greek Armory” Event was “a bit of a test”, to see whether or not the community enjoyed Events like this one (short Events with new Relics available).  They asked for Players to leave feedback on Facebook, whether they enjoyed the Event or not.

—

Haig mentioned that they haven’t forgotten about increasing Relic Storage.  He said they hit another hurdle, but they worked out a fix for it - and they will have an update for us “very soon” - perhaps as early as next week.

—

The Devs mentioned that, in addition to the two new 5* Relics (one Champion, one Guardian), there will also be two new Titans added to the 10k Divine Gem Altar when the next update (Version 1.33) goes live.  (Note from SteelSpine:  The Devs slipped up during the last Stream and said that Huntress and Oni would be the new Titans added to the Divine Gem Altars.  If plans haven’t changed, I would expect that to remain true).

NEXT *TWO* WEEKS:

MONDAY, JULY 1:  There will be a TITANS UNLEASHED Event (also known as a Titan Fusion Event).  (NOTE from SteelSpine:  It will be “Infiltrator Themed” - but remember, that ONLY matters for what’s available in the Temple.  ALL “Same Class to Same Class” Fusion will grant a large XP Bonus.  I’m mentioning this because of how confusing the Devs make the in-game messaging, and I’ve received questions about this from newer players in the past).

TUESDAY, JULY 2:  There will be a Relic Festival.  The Devs said there would be “some interesting stuff there”.  (Note:  Relic Festivals are always Temple Events).

FRIDAY, JULY 5:  There will be a CONQUEST EVENT.  No other information available yet.

— — —

TUESDAY, JULY 9:  There will be a THEATERS OF WAR Event.

THURSDAY, JULY 11:  There will be a “cool” Event.  (Haig stressed the word “cool”, so it *sounds to me like* it will be Ice themed - but that’s just a guess).

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).
