“NOSTREAM” RECAP - February 4, 2020 (Zeus)

** SteelSpine’s “NO STREAM” RECAP for MARCH 4, 2020**

XXXXX

The Devs decided to CANCEL this week’s LiveStream, so there isn’t a whole lot to report.  Fortunately, they posted some Event Info on the Official DoT Blog - so I have collected everything that was posted there and transferred it into an easy-to-share format.

Hope you’re all having a great week!  :-)

EVENT DETAILS:

This week’s Event will be called RETURN TO OLYMPUS.  It will begin on THURSDAY, MARCH 5 and run until MONDAY, MARCH 9.


Titan Details:

This week’s Event features the return of ZEUS, the Lightning Ranger.  ZEUS has NOT been Re-Skilled for this Event.  (My apologies for incorrectly stating that the Devs didn’t say whether or not he would be Re-Skilled on last week’s Stream - the Devs confirmed last week that he would NOT have new Skills.  Thank you to everyone who brought the error to my attention - especially Dialon, who was first.  Sorry for the mistake, everyone!  I will do better in the future).

ZEUS’ SKILLS:
Slot 1:  +30% Lightning Titan, Troop and Spell Damage, +3 Lightning Storm Spells
Slot 2:  +2 Summon Omega Storm Maiden Spells, +180% Storm Maiden Damage
Slot 3:  (Either +44% Imperials Armor OR +58% Imperials Health), +10 Lightning Bolts in each Lightning Storm Spell
Slot 4:  +2 Summon Omega Storm Maiden Spells, +88% Storm Maiden Armor Piercing
Slot 5:  (Either +88% Imperials Armor OR +117% Imperials Health), +30% Lightning Storm Radius

ZEUS will be available for 21k Souls.  (?!?)


New Relic in this Event:  

4* BUST OF ZEUS
+60% Titan and Troop Lightning Damage
+80% Lightning Spells Damage
+60% Storm Maiden Armor Piercing
(NOTE:  The Skill in Slot 2 probably works for both Lightning AND Lightning Storm Spells, but since there was no Stream there is no way to confirm this.  The wording on the Blog was “Lightning Spells Damage”).

TEASERS and OTHER INFORMATION:

Version 1.37 has gone LIVE for ALL players on both iOS and Android devices.  Below you will find information regarding what we can expect from v1.37 - including everything from last week’s Recap AND all of the new info that was posted on the official DoT blog.


v1.37 DETAILS:

NEW GODS:  Haig:  “The Shattered Kingdoms have reached an impasse.  The factions are at an imbalance, with many resorting to prayer and sacrifice in the hopes that new Gods will answer their cries for help.  Out in the furthest reaches of the universe, these cries have been heard.  Long forgotten deities stir.  War is coming.  Get ready to INVOKE the power of new gods - coming soon to alliance wars”.  (Haig stressed the words “war” and “invoke” during the February 26 Stream).

NEW DIVINE ALTAR TITANS - NECROSO and LIFESPARK.  They will have “powerful, dynamic abilities that can turn the tide of battle even in the most dire of circumstances”.

DIVINE ALTAR CHANGES:  Lots of changes coming to the DG Altars.  Haig said “the biggest complaint was having 3* Relics there - we THINK we have a plan to get rid of them”.

BABA YAGA arrives ON MARCH 12.

NEW ALLIANCE EVENT TYPE (coming sometime around or before early April):  “Face off against unique, formidable foes - and prepare yourself by joining a large, active Alliance”.

NEW 5* RELICS, which will have “interesting and unique effects”.

ASSAULT EVENT will return, with new maps and better Rewards.

CHANGES TO “QUICKMATCH BUTTON” - it should help you find “more appropriate opponents during Leaderboard Events”.

PLAYER LEVEL XP INCREASE:  The amount of Player XP gained from PVP battles will be doubled.  (Player Level is the number under your profile picture in the top left corner of your screen).

BUG FIXES:  A number of fixes for various bugs that cause crashes and freezes during loading and battle.  Fix for a crash that can occur when transitioning into the game after tapping on a “Push Notification” on iOS devices.  Fix for the “Profile Synchronization” issues when logging into multiple devices or new devices that share a Google Play or GameCenter Account.  More improvements to Cheater Detection/Prevention systems.


TROOP META CHANGES:  

ARCHERS (additional +10% to +20% Base Damage from L16-L25):  This change is to help Archers be more viable against Horde Troops.
GRENADIERS (additional +1% to +15% Base Critical from L11-L25):  This change will make it easier to max out the Critical Rate on your Grenadiers, thus freeing up more Relic slots and adding a bit more diversity in loadouts.
PANTHERS (additional +20% to +30% Base Health and Armor from L16-L25):  This change is intended to help Panthers be more viable on Defense again.

Interestingly, THERE WILL BE NO CHANGES TO HORDE TROOPS IN THIS UPDATE.


INTRODUCTION OF RELIC SHARDS IN THE TEMPLE:  There will be two new Altars:  “Shards” and “Epic Shards”.  Just like the Relic Shards that were previously only available in Assault Events, these unique Relics’ only use will be as “Forging Food” for Leveling up your Relics.  The reason they provide extra Relic Forging Experience is because they always drop at their maximum Level (2*s are always L5, 3*s 4*s and 5*s are always L10), so they give the same Forging XP as forging away a maxed out Relic of the same Rarity would.

RELIC SHARD DROP RATES (for the upcoming NEW Shard Altars):

SHARDS ALTAR:  
2* (Level Five, worth 1184 Forging XP)  — 75% Drop Rate
3* (Level Ten, worth 4000 Forging XP)  — 25% Drop Rate

EPIC SHARDS ALTAR:
3* (Level Ten, worth 4000 Forging XP)    —  45% Drop Rate
4* (Level Ten, worth 11400 Forging XP)   —  50% Drop Rate
5* (Level Ten, worth 29000 Forging XP)  —  5% Drop Rate

(NOTE:  For reference, a L1 4* Relic grants 3000 Forging XP).

NEXT TWO WEEKS:

MONDAY, 9 MARCH:  A TITANS UNLEASHED (Titan Fusion) Event, featuring Guardians in the Temple.

TUESDAY, 10 MARCH:  A “Greek style” THEATERS OF WAR Event.

WEDNESDAY, 11 MARCH:  DOT’s Fifth Anniversary celebration begins.  Players will receive “a Free Bundle or something like that”.

THURSDAY, 12 MARCH:  The BABA YAGA Event begins.  This was CONFIRMED on the DoT Blog on March 4.  NOTE:  Baba Yaga is based on TALON WARLOCK’s winning design from the “Design A Titan” contest.  She has been confirmed to be a Champion - but that’s really all we know about her, other than a handful of pictures of her holding a staff with a purpish glow.  The recently released Game Lore for Baba Yaga says, “BABA YAGA – totemic, supernatural ancestress – appears from the depths of the forest. Believed only to be myth in ancient Mossmane folklore, she represents the dark side of wisdom and the power of knowledge and intelligence in warfare” - so at this point it appears (to me) that she will either boost Panthers, Horde or some combination of the two.  The Devs have also teased that she will have “cool new skills”, and said they were “trying to do something interesting and new with her”.  More information will be available in next week’s LiveStream (and Recap), so be sure to check it out.  :-)


MONDAY, 16 MARCH:  A CONSTRUCTION FRENZY Event (discount on Building Upgrades).  (NOTE:  This was announced during the February 26 LiveStream, but it was NOT included in the Official DoT Blog Post - so plans may have changed).

MONDAY, 16 MARCH:  A RELIC FESTIVAL Temple Event called “CURSES”.  (NOTE:  The Devs previously said there would be a Relic Leaderboard Event on 17 March, featuring “some of the old Relics, like the 4* WILD ARROWS, that you guys have been asking for” - but if the Official DoT Blog is to be believed, plans have CHANGED and this is no longer the case.  There was also supposed to be some sort of a “lucky themed free gift bundle” for Saint Patrick’s Day - but this was NOT mentioned on the DoT Blog, so even though I still think it will happen it has NOT been reconfirmed).

THURSDAY, 19 MARCH:  A “PICK YOUR TITAN” Leaderboard Event.  Players who compete will be able to choose one of four offered Titans:  one will be “a Void Titan”, one will be “one of the Minotaur Titans”, and there will be two others available to choose from.  (NOTE:  This info is from LAST WEEK’s Stream - but it appears that the schedule has changed, so the 19 March Event may be something completely different now).
