NOSTREAM RECAP - September 12, 2019 (Drakor)

** SteelSpine’s NOSTREAM MINI RECAP for SEPTEMBER 12, 2019 **

XXXXX


XXXXX

We had no hosts for this week’s LiveStream because - oops! - there was no LiveStream!  I decided to put this “No Stream Recap” together anyway, in order to make the information that was posted on the “Official DoT Blog” a bit easier for everybody to share and read through.  Hope you’re all having a good week!  :-)  -SteelSpine

EVENT DETAILS:

This week’s Event is called ASHES OF WAR.  It will begin on THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 12 (around 3:30 pm BST) and run until MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 16.


Titan Details:

This week’s Event features the return of DRAKOR, the Unak Fire Champion.  DRAKOR’s Skills have been redone completely when compared to his original version.  He has basically become a Fire Titan version of Avalos, with some extra Troop Damage, Troop Health and a bunch of Titan X Skills thrown in.  (Interesting piece of trivia:  Drakor was one of the first two Titans ever developed by the Dawn of Titans team).

DRAKOR’s (new) SKILLS:
Slot 1:  +40% All Troop Damage and Health
Slot 2:  +180% Titan Fire Damage, +180% Grenadiers Damage
Slot 3:  +88% Titan Armor, +88% Imperials Armor
Slot 4:  +88% Titan Armor Piercing, +88% Grenadiers Armor Piercing
Slot 5:  +117% Titan Health, +117% Imperials Health


New Relics available in this Event:  

4* DRAKOR’S GIFT
+ Titan and Troop Fire Damage
+ Grenadiers Armor Piercing
+ Imperials Health

4* DRAKOR’S GAUNTLETS
+ Titan Fire Damage
+ Grenadier Damage
+ Imperials Ranged Resist

(NOTE:  The Stats for these Relics were leaked on Line earlier in the week - but the Relics have been changed since then.  Unfortunately I do not have updated stat numbers for these Relics - but if I find them I will post them to my blog.  Just for reference:  The leaked version of DRAKOR’s GIFT granted +30% Titan Armor Piercing, +50% Grenadiers Damage and +18% Imperials Resist Against Ranged.  The leaked version of DRAKOR’S GAUNTLETS granted +50% Titan Fire Damage, +20% Grenadiers Critical and +40% Imperials Health).

TEASERS and OTHER INFORMATION:

The Devs released a list of changes that are coming in Version 1.34 on their “blog” this week.  Most of this is the same as what I’ve reported before, but there are two lines of note:  The one which says it “includes powerful new Titans and Gods for upcoming Events” is new, and the confirmation that the “Damage Vs Titans” Skill will be changed to “Troop Damage” is HUGE (if true).  I *think* the Devs may have meant that the Damage Vs Titans Skills will be changed to individual Troop Damage Skills (Imperials Damage for Etalus, Panthers Damage for Basathi, etc etc) - but if the Skill is changed to “Troop Damage” that will be pretty incredible, because the Skill called “+ Troop Damage” is calculated in a very different way from individual Damage Skills.  Hopefully we will get more clarification on this next week.  

Below you will find the Devs’ summary (which I copied word-for-word) for anyone who would like to read it.


“New Update - 1.34:

Our new update is nearly here – we’ll have more details in next week’s Livestream, but look out for the new version hitting stores within the next 2 weeks. This update features:

Includes powerful new Titans & Gods for upcoming events! 
Brand new 4* Economy Relics that boost your resource generation and training times.
A new way to filter your Relic Inventory – alphabetically!
Neutral Lands are now refreshed with Gold.
‘Damage against Titans’ skills replaced with ‘Troop Damage’ skills.
You can now see Titan levels in the Season Rewards screen.
Additional anti-cheat mechanics and hacker detection tools.
Lots of bug fixes and performance improvements.”

NEXT TWO WEEKS:

MONDAY, 16 SEPTEMBER:  There will be an Infiltrator themed TITANS UNLEASHED EVENT (also known as a TITAN FUSION EVENT).  (Reminder:  During Titans Unleashed, ALL same-class to same-class Fusion provides the same big XP bonus.  The “theme” only affects which Titans are featured at the Temple).

TUESDAY, 17 SEPTEMBER:  There will be an Ice themed THEATERS OF WAR Event and an Ice themed Temple Takeover.

THURSDAY, 19 SEPTEMBER and FRIDAY, 20 SEPTEMBER:  These days are a bit confusing.  During last week’s LiveStream, the Devs said there would be a 24 hour Mini-Event (probably Construction Frenzy) on September 19 and a Conquest Event (featuring a “really interesting” new Titan) on September 20.  HOWEVER, according to the DoT Blog post this has apparently changed.  If the information on that Blog is to believed, there will now be a “PICK YOUR TITAN” Alliance Leaderboard Event on September 19 instead.  (Note from SteelSpine:  The Devs did not give any information about which Titans would be available in this Event, so we will have to wait for next week’s LiveStream for more details).


MONDAY, 23 SEPTEMBER:  There will be a “KINGDOM RUSH” Event (discount on Neutral Land refreshes).

TUESDAY, 24 SEPTEMBER:  There will be a Void-themed “ALTAR OF PLENTY” Event.  (Note from SteelSpine:  I’m not sure if we will be able to use our “Silver Relic Tokens” in this one, like we have in the past - or if it will be like all of the other recent “Relic Festivals”, which did not allow it.  Somebody should ask about this during next week’s LiveStream).

THURSDAY, 26 SEPTEMBER:  There will be an EGYPTIAN GOD EVENT.  The only things we know about it with any certainty is that it will be an Alliance Leaderboard Event, and it will feature the Titan that is shown in the “Monthly Calendar” that the Devs share on Facebook and Twitter.

Last week I mistakenly said I thought there had never been a Conquest Event that featured a new Titan, only reintroduced or reskilled Titans.  I completely forgot that the very first Conquest Event - back on February 8th - featured the debut of LUBU.  Quite a few players noticed the error, but Nightbane was the first to point it out to me.  Sorry for the confusion, all!

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

You can reach me in-game under the name SteelSpine (I’m the Level 41 one, as of September 2019).  Feel free to reach out to me with any questions, comments or suggestions!


As always, thanks for reading!  :-)
