Version 17.1.0 Release Notes
This update is slated for release next week!
[h2]Pirate Content Pass[/h2]
Are you ready, kids? I can’t hear you!
From the briny depths comes a new content pass, full of new content! For the grand prize, look forward to the barnacled Kraken Shank dagger, as well as plenty more seafaring items!
Accomplished buccaneers can also look forward to the Pirate King/Queen title, only available to those who finish every task!
This Content Pass will run for four weeks, starting on July 9th and ending on August 6th.
[h2]Polonia’s Jolly Roger[/h2]
The Content Pass contains a special decoration! This pirate flag has the special ability to track Polonia’s thieving prowess and remembers how many items she’s stolen during her lifetime. Simply inspect the decoration to learn her current score.
Tracking will also happen even while the decoration is stored away. Keep in mind however that thefts prior to this update were not tracked.
[h2]Seed of Merit Fusion[/h2]
It’s finally available! You can fuse your own Seeds of Merit with the following recipe:
[h2]Blitz Pass[/h2]
This new feature is exclusive to new players. We’ve actually stealthily tested it a few months back and we were happy with the results!
The Blitz Pass is a new method for fresh players to hire Champions. Upon first meeting a Champion, they’ll trigger that Champion’s Blitz Pass, which functions like a very short and rather easy Content Pass. By completing a few “tutorial” tasks, the player will earn enough Champion Coins to hire that Champion and hopefully learn a thing or two.
As of this update, the Lilu Blitz Pass is available. Sia and Yami are expected to be included soon, and other Champions may also receive Blitz Passes in the future.
[h2]New Major Artifacts[/h2]
Two new Major Artifacts have been added to the Major Artifact chest. Their components are also now available.
[h3]Wyrmbane Cannon[/h3]
This powerful gun is a perfect fit for Dragon Invasion! Not only is it worth 20% more points when donated, it also increases its wielder’s Dragon Invasion score by 20% when assigned to the airship.
Thankfully, it does not require Wyrmbane Cannonballs to fire.
[h3]Rock Stompers[/h3]
These heavy, heavy boots are best worn by lumbering fighters. They grant a +250 Defense bonus, as well as a +25% skill bonus to Defense. Due to their weight however, the user’s evasion is set to 0% and cannot be changed.
King Reinhold will be available as a Guest Champion on July 22nd, leaving on the 25th.
