RECAP - July 8, 2020 (Sekhmet)

** SteelSpine’s RECAP for JULY 8, 2020 **

Sorry for the delay, all!  I didn’t realize that the Official Blog had been updated a day early.  My apologies.  :-) -Steel


There was no LiveStream again this week due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic.  Our last LiveStream - and last Q&A session - with the Devs was on February 27th.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  The Devs are FINALLY starting to take Questions for a “Bi-Weekly Developer Q&A”.  While this won’t be NEARLY as good - or as effective - as being able to ask the Devs questions in “real time” each week when an Event is revealed, it’s better than what we’ve had for the past five months (which is no contact with or from the Dev Team AT ALL).  It remains to be seen how effective these Question & Answer sessions will be - but crumbs are a feast to a starving man, so it is what it is.

If you’d like to submit a Question for the Devs, please fill out the form at https://blog.dawnoftitans.com/submitquestion/ (and remember not to include any sensitive info, like your email address, name, player ID or password).

(Note from SteelSpine:  Hopefully this is a TEMPORARY MEASURE, and we will get back to having real LiveStreams soon - but since they plan on doing these Q&As every two weeks, I’m not very optimistic about the Stream returning any time soon.  Please prove me wrong, Devs.  Half a year of being ignored by the Developers is six months too long - and a pre-rehearsed Q&A session that’s filtered ten times to make sure nothing interesting or controversial is included just isn’t enough for a game as expensive and time-consuming as DoT).

NEXT TWO WEEKS:

MONDAY, 13 JULY:  A TITANS UNLEASHED Event (also known as a TITAN FUSION EVENT).  This one will feature Berserkers in the Temple, but as always ALL same-class to same-class Fusion will result in the same XP bonus.

TUESDAY, 14 JULY until THURSDAY, 16 JULY:  A THEATERS OF WAR Event.  It will be called “RANGERS”.  Players can choose to turn in their saved Relics of War for ARTEMIS (40 Relic of War Tokens, at the Titan Gold Altar), ETALUS (30 Relic of War Tokens, at the Titan Silver Altar), or JORAN (3* Titan, 15 Relic of War Tokens, at the Titan Bronze Altar).  (NOTE from SteelSpine: Players can also choose to continue saving up their Relic of War Tokens.  Relics of War carry over between Theaters of War Events, so you don’t need to spend them this week if you don’t like the Titans being offered - if you don’t spend them they will reappear in the Temple during the next Theaters of War).

THURSDAY, 16 JULY:  Another Leaderboard Event begins.  This one will feature the return of FIRESTRYKE.  (NOTE:  FIRESTRYKE will be Reskilled for this Event).


MONDAY, 20 JULY:  A TROOPCRAFT Event (discount on Troop training and Troop Leveling).

TUESDAY, 21 JULY until THURSDAY, 23 JULY:  A RAID BOSS Event will take place.  This one will be called “THE HUNT”.  No further details are available.  (Note from SteelSpine:  This is ONLY SPECULATION on my part, but “The Hunt” sounds like a name that has typically been given to Events that feature Panthers and/or Poison Titans.  For example:  The first Artemis Event - way back on September 27 of 2018 - was called “Goddess of The Hunt”...  and while I highly doubt this Event will include Artemis since she was just offered in April, I would be quite surprised if this Raid Boss Event didn’t feature battles against a modified version of a Poison Titan.  It is possible that the “Boss” in this Event could just be a Ranger from a different Element, though, since that would also fit the “Hunt” theme).

THURSDAY, 23 JULY:  Another Leaderboard Event begins.  No details were given on the Official DoT Blog.

CORRECTION:

In last week’s Recap, I mistakenly said that there were “no  further details” for the Theaters of War Event on 14 July.  The Devs DID mention at the very end of last week’s Official Blog post that the Theaters of War Event would feature Artemis, and that you will be able to purchase Artemis (4* Poison Ranger) for 40 Relics of War Tokens, Etalus (4* Ice Ranger) for 30 Relics of War and Joran (3* Earth Ranger) for 15 Relics of War.  They also mentioned that FLAME CANDLES (which will be the Boost Relic for the Reskilled Firestryke Event on July 16) will be available as possible Battle Drops from the Arenas.  

I’m not sure how I managed to overlook that information - but THANK YOU to “Pretinha .Tr” for pointing out my error.  Sorry for the confusion, all!  :-)
