Titan Details:
This week’s Event features RA, the Fire Guardian. In addition to boosting the effectiveness of Meteor Strike Spells, RA is the first Titan to feature two Defensive X Skills for Horde Troops.
SKILLS:
Slot 1: +44% Grenadier Critical, +28% Horde Void & Fire Resist, +3 Meteor Spells
Slot 2: +234% Horde Health (Horde Defensive X Skill)
Slot 3: +88% Grenadier Armor Piercing, +10 Meteors In Each Meteor Strike Spell
Slot 4: +176% Horde Armor (Horde Defensive X Skill)
Slot 5: +180% Grenadier Damage, -40% Smaller Radius for Meteor Strike Spells
NOTES:
The -40% Radius in Slot 5 means that your Meteors will drop in a smaller area, increasing the chance that they’ll hit something.
RA will be available for 18k Souls.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS:
Question (Q) from a Player: What’s up with the Relic Storage issue, which won’t allow us to attack when we have our inventories full?
Answer (A) from a Developer: That was a bug. It should be fixed now.
Q: Why remove the 500+ slot Treasure Room for 100 Relic Slots?
A: This answer was very confusing - at first. They initially didn’t actually say whether or not they were removing the Treasury altogether, or if they were just lowering the size of it. They just said the Treasury wasn’t “infinite”, and it would slow down lower end devices when packed with lots of relics. They also said they are planning to increase Relic Storage a little bit more in upcoming updates. (NOTE: Later on in the Stream they said there are NO changes to Relic Storage, other than the extra 100 slots being available. They also reiterated that the Treasure Room is still there, and is not changed).
Q: Are there “tester accounts” that play Events with unlimited Gems?
A: No. We have very strict rules for our testers.
Q: When will Damage Vs Titans be fixed or removed?
A: Sometime in the next couple of weeks.
Q: Is the +40% Horde Health change live?
A: Yes, along with other v1.33 changes.
Q: When is the next Event where we can use all of our old Event Relics?
A: Should be coming soon - we just need to decide which Event to do it in.
Q: We need a Relic Forging Event.
A: Maybe. We’ve been looking into stuff like that.
Q: When will Anubis come back?
A: Not any time soon, but we do have a plan for him.
Q: Can we get a Relic with Goliath Resist vs All Elements?
A: Matt: “I thought there already was one”. Haig: “Maybe there’s one in an upcoming Event. Maybe”.
Q: Did Spearmen get a health boost in v1.33? It looks that way.
A: No. There was an issue where their Health was not being displayed correctly. We fixed that issue, so it looks like they have more health but they really have the same as they had before. No change to battle or anything, we just fixed the displayed number.
Q: Persian mythology Titans coming at some point?
A: We can’t say anything for now, but we like it.
Q: Can we get more of a heads up about Boost Titans for upcoming Events?
A: Maybe. We can try. It will probably be in the LiveStream, though.
Q: Are there new Horde Relics?
A: We have new ones coming soon.
Q: What are the new drop rates for the 5000 and 500 Divine Gem Altars?
A: Matt: The new 5* Relics have a slightly higher drop rate than the old ones in the 5k Altar. In the 500 DG Altar, I’m not sure - but I think it’s around 25-30%. We’ll look it up and give you the actual numbers next week.
Q: More Troop Storage (larger Army Camp) coming?
A: We’re looking into increasing it.
Q: You need to listen to your players more.
A: We try to. We read everything that’s written when we send out player surveys, so make sure you fill those out. We also have Streams every week. You can always send us messages and comments, too.
Q: Can we get an option to see our Omega Troops’ Stats in-game?
A: That’s a good idea.
Q: Can you get rid of the Resist vs Titans Skill?
A: The main issue is the Damage Vs Titans Skill right now - but we know that needs to be fixed, too.
Q: Any more Greek Gods coming out?
A: (in a cheeky way): Maybe! Nothing to announce right now, though.

TEASERS and OTHER INFORMATION:
Version 1.33 has been released to all players. You’ll need to update to participate in this week’s Event.
The changes to the Divine Gems Altars are now LIVE, along with some of the other changes - including increased Relic Storage spaces (available for purchase). (NOTE: There was a bug that said the 8k Divine Gems Altar had 2*-4* Titans. That was incorrect - It only has 4* Titans).
—
The Devs brought up the cheating and hacking during last week’s Kronos Event. They said “everyone that was effected during the Event has been compensated”. They also said all the hackers have been banned, and there are new anti-cheating measures that have been pushed to the Servers. (NOTE: Events R Us spent extra Gems at the end of the Event to place just above the hacking alliance, in case nothing was done about it - and received no compensation. They could have done nothing and received an extra Kronos. In my opinion, ALL PLAYERS should have been compensated for this nonsense - INCLUDING the top two teams, Beta and ERU).
—
The Devs apologized for their mistake regarding the Titan Fusion Event. They said they had the dates wrong - it will take place THIS MONDAY instead. They also reminded us that “all footage shown is subject to change” and “also, what we say is sometimes subject to change”.
—
This isn’t from the LiveStream, but I wanted to make Players aware of it anyway since many of you don’t have a Line or Discord account and depend on the Recap for news. There is a boycott planned for this Event to protest the latest instances of cheating/hacking, the lack of communication from the Devs about Monday’s “missing” Fusion Event, and other issues that have been simmering for a while. I consider it my job to inform, not to influence, so I’m not going to tell anybody what to do - just making people aware of why “boycott” was discussed during the Stream and why it was the main subject in the LiveStream Chat.

NEXT WEEK:
MONDAY, July 29: There WILL be a Guardian themed “TITANS UNLEASHED” Event (also known as a TITAN FUSION Event).
TUESDAY, July 30: There will be a Relic Festival (Temple Event).
FRIDAY, August 2: There will be a CONQUEST Event.
(NOTE: The Devs also said we should see a Theaters of War sometime around August 6th).

Last week I mistakenly reported that the Reward for gaining 15k Souls in the Kronos Event was 150 Divine Gems. It was 450 DGs, not 150. A BIG thank you to MedicWeed(H)4CE for finding the error and letting me know quickly - I changed the version on the blog as soon as I was notified. Sorry for the mess-up, all!
As of right now (July 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 40 one, as of July 2019). Feel free to reach out to me with any questions, comments or suggestions!

YOU CAN FIND FUTURE (and PAST) EDITIONS OF MY RECAPS ON MY BLOG at steelspinesdot.blogspot.com . Feel free to copy the Recaps and share them to whoever you think would like to read them - but please remember to give credit.
If you are bored, check out the DoT subreddit at reddit.com/r/dawnoftitans/ . The community is small, but growing - and Reddit is a great place for us to hold longer on-topic conversations than we can on Line or Discord. If you need more incentive: The Recap is copied and reposted there each week (courtesy of IAMREALITY).
As always - Thanks for reading! :-)
