EVENT DETAILS:

This week’s Event will be called THE COBRA.  It will begin on THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6 and run until MONDAY, FEBRUARY 10.

Titan Details:

This week’s Event features the debut of WADJET, the Void Guardian.  She is the first Titan to significantly boost the effectiveness of Poison Cloud Spells.

WADJET’s SKILLS:

Slot 1:  +150% Poison Cloud Damage and Duration, +3 Poison Cloud Spells

Slot 2:  +88% Panther Armor, +176% Horde Armor

Slot 3:  +234% Horde Health, +117% Panther Health

Slot 4:  +40% Horde Melee Resist, +40% Panther Ranged Resist

Slot 5:  +40% Horde All Elemental Resist, +40% Panther All Elemental Resist

NOTE:  The Devs took a moment to say that there is a chance that Wadjet’s Skills MAY be tweaked before the Event goes live.  They said they “changed them up” a little bit on Wednesday (20 minutes before the Stream), and that they are doing some play testing with Wadjet today (Wednesday) to determine whether or not her Skills need a “slight increase” before the Event begins on Thursday.  If they ARE altered, I wouldn’t expect it to be anything too drastic.

WADJET will be available for 16k Souls.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS:

Question (Q) from a Player:  Can you change Garrison Maps?  They need to be more fair and fun for players.

Answer (A) from a Developer:  We had a look at Garrison Maps before.  It’s really hard to change them.  We’ll check into it this week and let you guys know during the next Stream.

Q:  Can you update certain (weak) Relics to re-introduce them to the new meta?

A:  Haig:  “We kind of don’t do that.  But if you have anything specific that you think is like super old ... that really doesn’t apply at all, then let us know.  We’ve tried to be interesting with the ‘Relic Meta’.  Old relics should still make sense”.

Q:  When is the 4* Elemental Grasp coming back in an Event?

A:  “Good question.  Very, very soon”.  (The Devs later confirmed that it SHOULD be available during the week of February 25).

Q:  Please remove 3* Relics from the 500 Divine Gem Altar.

A:  Yeah, that keeps getting brought up.  We have had conversations in the office around the DG Altar - and the 3* Relics in it.  We are not ignoring you guys.  We are trying to work something out.  (NOTE from SteelSpine:  I really hope they do something about this soon.  It’s extraordinarily frustrating to spend 500 DGs and get a 3*.  I did my 45th unsuccessful pull in a row on the 500 DG Altar last night - and almost all of the “prizes” I’ve received have been 3*s.  I wouldn’t mind so much if 90% or 95% of pulls gave a 4* Relic, but let’s be honest - NOBODY who is saving DGs uses a 3* Relic for anything other than Forge Food.  STOP DEBATING and please just fix it, Devs).

Q:  Is Assault done?

A:  No, it will come back.  We’re still working on it.

Q:  Can you bring back the Monthly Calendar you used to post on social media?

A:  Yes, we are looking to do that for March.

Q:  Is this the last Egyptian Titan?

A:  No.

Q:  Will the 4* Loki’s Trinket Relic give extra Souls in this Event?

A:  Haig:  “That’s a great question”.

Q:  Any chance of a trading feature between Alliances?

A:  No.  Too much potential for abuse, and it would be the only thing we’d be working on for like six months.

Q:  When is Zeus coming back?

A:  (Dom joked and gave incorrect dates YET AGAIN, followed by) Haig:  “It will be BEFORE April 22”.

Q:  Have you ever thought about pets for Titans?

A:  We actually have.  Not quite pets, but a World of Warcraft - type feature.  Nothing to announce on that front, but we have thought about it.  It’s a cool idea.

Q:  Please add a “Trash Button” to the Treasury, so we can delete unwanted items without collecting them first.

A:  That is in our backlog of work that we would like to do, yes.  (NOTE:  Haig hinted that if more people complain about this it will get done more quickly - so if you want this feature, speak up on Facebook and/or contact Support).

Q:  Any update on Version 1.37?

A:  It will have Baba Yaga in it, a new type of Event, new 5* Relics with “cool new Skills”, and lots of other bug fixes, changes & hacking detection.

TEASERS and OTHER INFORMATION:

The Devs were asked about “an update to some Relics”.  In response, Haig mentioned that the Dev Team is “potentially looking into” issues with the 5* Axes of War, 5* Dragonslayer, 5* Shadowdancer, and “Lubu’s Armor”.  He didn’t promise any changes, but he did say that they are “aware of” (and are looking into) “some of the issues that you guys said you had with those Relics”.  (NOTE:  Haig seemed confused about the “Lubu’s Armor” in his notes; I’m almost positive the issue is with his Slot 1 Skill, NOT with one of the Lubu Relics).  (ALSO:  Haig specifically referred to the “wrong damage” on the 5* Axes of War (it is currently giving Elemental Damage instead of Base Damage, which is stronger due to the way it’s calculated) - so hopefully that will be fixed soon.  GREAT JOB getting the word out about that, everybody!  You all are awesome).

—

Haig briefly mentioned that a Balance Update will be coming soon.  He said it will happen “probably not too far off”, and will include changes to Archers, Grenadiers and Horde Troops.  (NOTE from SteelSpine:  I’m not sure what the Devs have in store for Archers and Grenadiers, but I THINK we can safely assume that Horde Troops will be weakened in some way since they are so much stronger than the other units right now - like Storm Maidens were last year, before their realignment).

NEXT THREE WEEKS:

MONDAY, 10 FEBRUARY:  A KINGDOM RUSH Event (discount on Neutral Lands).

TUESDAY, 11 FEBRUARY:  A TEMPLE TAKEOVER Event.  It will feature a chance at winning one of two fan favorites: DIONYSUS and CERBERUS.

THURSDAY, 13 FEBRUARY:  Weekly Leaderboard Event begins.  The Devs said they have some pretty cool Valentines Day related stuff lined up for this weekend, including a “fabulous” new “mega” Titan (their words, not mine).  Haig previously mentioned that the Titan offered in this week’s Event will have a “new style Skill”, with “a cool new style Effect”.  (NOTE from SteelSpine:  Since Valentines Day is routinely associated with Cupid, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if this Titan was a Ranger - especially since the Fusion Event the following Monday is Ranger themed.  The Titan could also be a big-time Archer booster, since Cupid is often associated with bows and arrows - but this is ONLY SPECULATION by me).

—

MONDAY, 17 FEBRUARY:  A TITAN’S UNLEASHED Event (TITAN FUSION Event).  It will feature Rangers in the Temple.

TUESDAY, 18 FEBRUARY:  A THEATERS OF WAR Event.  This one will be Void Themed.

FRIDAY, 21 FEBRUARY:  Another CONQUEST Event begins.  It will feature the return of RA, the Fire Guardian.  (NOTE:  Ra boosts the effectiveness of Meteor Strike Spells, and has Grenadier Offensive Skills and Horde Defensive Skills).

—

MONDAY, 24 FEBRUARY:  A 24 hour “Daily Event” (probably another KINGDOM RUSH).

TUESDAY, 25 FEBRUARY:  The Devs mentioned that we SHOULD be able to “get our hands on” the Elemental Grasp Relic on this day.  No word regarding whether this will be a Relic mini-Event or a Temple Altar Event, though - and Haig made a point to mention that this is all “subject to change”.

THURSDAY, 27 FEBRUARY:  (SPECULATION:  Based on hints that were previously given, I THINK this is PROBABLY the date of the Baba Yaga Event - but ONLY if Version 1.37 is released BEFORE this week.  This is just an educated guess by me, though - the Devs did NOT confirm it or anything).
