So the Doomed Weapon affixes were changed according to the community feedback we received.
The feedback regarding the other Weapons is still to be considered but was left alone in order to prioritise other feedback/features/bug fixes.

Hi all,

Nintendo Switch will be getting the 7.3 Battlegrounds update tomorrow Wednesday 16th AEDT.

You can read about the changes here:

Upgrade resource refunds for the rebalanced troops are available in game now.
If you’d like to do so, you can see a yellow down arrow on the Troop card in your collection.
Selecting a Troop with this symbol will give the option to refund.

More info to come for those who made real money purchases for these troops.

It is cross posted to the forum official news category, facebook and twitter.

I’ll see what info I can get about this tomorrow when we’re back in business hours.

I haven’t bothered min-maxing this team, I will when things start getting tough but if anyone wants a team suggestion (I’m by no means the best team builder though), I’m having no problems with looping this team with Adelwing in 3rd position:

[7370,7199,7471,6118,3049,2,2,1,3,2,3,3,14016]

Stone viper starts the looping on Adelwing, if Adelwing looses the loop, Kerberos has a 40% chance of devouring/can cleanup until Stone Viper has the loop started again (usually in one or 2 turns).

I also haven’t maxxed out all the troops on this team either, so it would probably go slightly better with whatever I’m missing off the levels/traits.

It was tested for bugs, balance and fun.

I know it’s not fun to for anyone who wants it the way it was before the rebalance though.

I think you’re asking for players to play test? as manual testing is playtesting.

The Troop info for Adelwing was published today like it always is, we never publish troop info when the Headstart offer begins.

I will suggest we make the Troop info available in game when the Headstart offer goes live in future, but this is how it always worked.

But also we are looking at sending out shiny keys as well, so you do get extra for the purchase.

So manual and automated testing was done.
But we will always keep an eye on the live data when we have 10s of thousands of humans playing with the changes. You can’t replicate that.

No, not this week, it will be mentioned in the blog when it’s added to the Vault.

The Troop refunds won’t be live immediately from weekly reset but they will be out shortly.
We want to make sure weekly reset has gone out smoothly before pushing the refunds live.

The changes are out now ready for weekly resest.

Hey all,

We believe we should have the lag resolved in the next 72 hours

Thanks again for your patience.

Don’t mind us, trying to fix the plugin on wordpress that auto cross posts the blogs to the forum. Good news though it was fixed

In addition to the standard in game troop refund, we’re discussing sending some shiny keys for real money purchases involving the 4 shiny Pathfinder Troops:

• Huntmaster Arborius
• Sir Ailuin
• Hippolyta
• Egris

I’m just waiting for final confirmation/details at the moment about what exactly that will be and how it will be handled.

Catching up on all the feedback still but just wanted to pop in:

First of all, I communicated the information I had:

• The team was reviewing the Journey event inline with the pathfinder changes
• As soon as we had details about what those changes were we published them to the blog

For the Pathfinder Troops, while the changes are predicted to restrict looping ability, the idea is that maybe you can still loop your turn 3-5 times in a row, you won’t be able to loop it 25 times. So the idea is to still allow the Pathfinder to loop, just not so much that if you find a Pathfinder on an opponent’s team you’re not just sitting in the battle watching your team get beat up with the opponent looping its turns.

Small changes can have a big effect in the game, so I know it doesn’t seem like the 2 level difference will make much difference right now, but let’s just give it a shot and see how it goes and as I’ve mentioned last week, we monitor all ch...

It’s intended to be based on Hero level in the new PVP system, however, the Point scaling for high level players is too aggressive, possibly due to a bug and the team are looking into why.
