This update is slated for release on April 15th.


40 new blueprints are now available! There’s more every year, isn’t there!?

For this new batch of blueprints, we have to take a step back in time. A pretty big step back in fact, considering we’re time traveling back several million years. Pack a big lunch, because routine trips to the Ancient Jungle quest will be required to craft wonderful new items such as the Behemoth armor set, the Blossomblade or the mythical Dino Nuggies.


The untamed Ancient Jungle is the realm of dinosaurs! One would be a fool to go wandering these hunting grounds willingly. We really need those components, though.

The Ancient Jungle quest can be unlocked starting at Merchant Level 66, costing 15 billion gold.

Just plain old components won’t be enough for this tier however. Read below on the new Timewarped Components.


It seems that the return trip back to the present may have a beneficial effect on some old components!

Unique to the Ancient Jungle quest, a new option to Timewarp components will be available. Whenever you start a quest, you’ll have the option to bring in a stack of compatible components. If your quest succeeds, these components will be upgraded into a new form, which is needed to craft many Tier 15 items. If the quest fails however, you’ll lose them, so be careful!

A new special node has been added to Advanced Research. For each item type, if you’ve unlocked a Tier 15 blueprint and unlocked at least one node for that type, a new research node will be made available. Unlocking it will apply all previously unlocked Advanced Research nodes of that item type to Tier 15 as well.

For example, a player who has unlocked all Advanced Research for Swords can have the Craft Speed, Surcharge Energy Reduction and XP Bonus also apply to Tier 15 swords with this upgrade.

The level cap for workers has been increased to 50, provided you have the building level for it. Levels past 45 will have a different effect; the craft time reduction is more pronounced, but only applies to items of Tier 15 or higher.

As part of this change, the experience requirement for the workers levels has been reduced. You’re welcome!


While veteran players are busy time-traveling and crafting chunky Tier 15 items, we’ve also prepared a special Login Calendar for newer players to enjoy. It contains a plethora of Prehistoric rewards to claim over 15 days!

Though it is aimed towards newer players, there’s no restriction as to who can participate.

The Trip Through Time Login Calendar will start on April 17th and run until May 5th.

The Emerald Inn and the Tavern now have new levels to accommodate the new dungeon. The buildings of city workers now also have three new levels to support their max level of 50.

• It is now possible to fully ascend an item by long-tapping the ascension button. You’ll get a warning first.
  
• The item details menu will now display the multiple item types a Dual Wield item is classified as, the Quiver bonus an item has, and the affinity an item has.

• The maximum rank of Champions has been increased to 11+60.
  
• Polonia’s cap on the tier of equipment stolen has been increased by 1.
  
• Sigils, both True and regular, are rather old news at this point. Their fusion recipe has been simplified to help players get past Tier 11-12. They now require 10 of an appropriate quest component in exchange for 3 Sigils.
  
• Elysium-related Fusions (e.g. chest and components) now require Supreme Moonstones.
  
• Most city buildings have had their investment tick requirements lowered. You’ll need more ticks overall to reach the newly added building levels though!
  
• The amount of crafts required to master mid-tier blueprints has been reduced slightly.
  
• Slightly rebalanced minimum Hero level required to equip item tiers. Tier 15 can be equipped starting at Hero level 38.
  
• Rebalanced Merchant level required to unlock tiers on the market. Tier 15 can be traded on the market starting at level 65.
  
• The Elysium dungeon is now cheaper to unlock.
  

• The navigation has been visually updated to better display content within that tab at a glance and support a theoretical infinite number of tabs.
  
• Some improvements have also been made to scrolling through the navigation on mobile; when scrolling you will now “snap” onto the nearest button.

The King will return as a Guest Champion starting on April 28th until May 1st.

The Cinco de Mayo collection will return starting on May 2nd and running until May 7th.

• Fixed Grab Bags awarding incorrect quantities and/or types of rewards.
  
• Fixed visual issues with background blur on several menus.
  
• Fixed an issue where chat could be accessed before completing the proper tutorials.
  
• Fixed the Gem cost for resetting Talent Trees not capping at 500 Gems as intended.
  
• Fixed the error message when attempting to buy a blueprint from the Collection Book with an inadequate amount of Antique Tokens mentioning the King’s Caprice event not being active.
  
• Fixed Vending Machine sales not contributing to tasks for selling item tiers and selling items for Gold.
  
• Fixed the Item Packs section of the store displaying offers meant for early progression players regardless of player’s own progression.
  
• Fixed the Mercenary hero class not properly calculating effects from Champion party bonuses.
  
• Fixed a white square that would show up next to the Hero’s status assigned to the Dragon Invasion airship.
  
• Fixed King’s Caprice Antique Token cost discounts applying to the Collection Book when any major event was running.
  
• Fixed Royal Merchant Antique Store slot exclusive blueprints being available for purchase in the Collection Book to non-Royal Merchants.

This Content Pass is quite local! In fact, it feels like home! The Shop Titans Content Pass features new yet familiar content based on your favorite characters! Earn Pollux Tokens by completing tasks to work your way towards Bjorn’s Bow, or a model version of Polonia’s ship for your shop! Donovan’s Cloak is also available as a bonus reward!

Real OGs may be interested in the True Shopkeeper title, earned by completing every task of this Content Pass.

The Content Pass will be available starting on March 18th until April 2nd.

You have long toiled away at the Collection Book, filling its pages with legendary items. But have you ever wondered what the collection book could do for you in return?

Starting in this update, it will now be possible to purchase antique blueprints from within the collection book! Standard conditions apply; the item must be an antique, and in some cases, your account must be old enough to claim the item. One new condition however is that you must master a blueprint of the same line that is one tier above (or higher). For example, mastering a Tier 14 Wand will make all antique Wands of Tier 13 and below available to unlock using Antique Tokens at their standard cost. Until a new tier releases, Tier 14 items remain exclusive to offers and the Antique Store.

As a small bonus, the Antique Store now features a 15% discount on blueprints.


This special fountain is a new offer you don’t want to miss. For the cost of $4.99 (USD), you’ll receive 550 gems instantly alongside the Gem Fountain decoration. The Gem Fountain will then generate 50 gems daily for 30 days! You’ll need to login daily though, otherwise that day’s gems will be lost.

Once the duration runs out, the Gem Fountain will go dormant until the offer is purchased again, granting all of its bonuses (including the initial gems) once more.

Superior Packs just got a bit superior-er! They now follow a format similar to Mega Packs, offering a bundle of new content in each half, or the complete package at a discount. Superior Packs now also contain two blueprints (with one typically belonging to a Premium line) and a few customizations or decorations.

By popular demand, it is now possible to refund Talent points individually. Each point now costs 50 gems to refund. The cost of refunding an entire tree still caps out at 500 gems, so it may be a beneficial option for major changes to your playstyle. Nothing beats a Refund Token, of course.

• When using the Coincidental Preparations (chance to instantly complete a quest) talent alongside a Compass-type booster, the booster will be refunded if the quest autocompletes.
  
• Many players learn very late about the existence of the Guild’s Choice mechanic for city buildings. We’ve made it a bit more eye-catching.
  
• The store button is now displayed on the main HUD.

• Significantly increased the Merchant XP value of Dual Wield blueprints.
  
• Blueprints found in the Antique Store now have a 15% discount.
  
• The Vending Machine Surcharge chance now caps out at 20%.
  
• The Vending Machine’s unique stats (Surcharge chance and sale frequency) now cap out as early as level 16, so you won’t need to spend many Dragonmarks to get the most of it.
  
• The Vending Machine’s Max Energy bonus is now double that of a regular rack.

In the longer term, we’ll be looking at more substantial changes to the Vending Machine to improve its usefulness and fun factor.

Just in time for the Collection Book upgrade, you can now purchase Antique Tokens directly from the webstore! Six different bundles are available.

The King will return as a Guest Champion starting on March 31st until April 3rd.

• Fixed a rare issue preventing some players from asking for help upgrading their furniture.
  
• Fixed some issues with quests sorting strangely when sorted by component quantity.
  
• Fixed the Squirrel Spirit model using the wrong Runestone.
  
• Clarified the Vending Machine’s time per sale upgrade.
  
• Fixed issues with Grab Bags not awarding appropriate rewards for their color.
  
• Fixed Moonstone bounties occasionally appearing as non-premium bounties.
  
• Fixed an issue where using the “None” filter would prevent the Apply button from working properly in Advanced Search.

Fixed Market information (quantity, sale price, etc.) for items in inventory not populating when below the level requirements for that item tier.

This update is slated for release next week!


Everyone duck for the introduction of the Backfire Hammer! This torrid torpedo-mace packs quite the punch, but also cuts the wielder’s HP by 25% at the start of a battle. It'll also boost your equipped Maces' stats by 100%. You can follow it up with some healing, or simply equip it to those weirdoes who enjoy being hurt.


We’re introducing an entirely new furniture item: the Vending Machine! This special type of rack can hold items of your choosing and will slowly sell them over time while you are offline!

The Vending Machine is limited to one per shop, but we may look at increasing this limit in the future. It will cost you 1500 Gems and can then be upgraded similar to other racks (using Gold).

Event Leaderboard Rewards (trophies, titles, badges) now have a much longer grace period allotted to claim them. Approximately one month after the event’s start. 
Keep in mind that you’ll need to have scored enough personal contribution to complete the event in order to qualify for these leaderboard rewards.

We’re trying something new here. Superior Offers and Flashback offer priority has now been inverted. In other words, purchasing a mega pack will make you eligible for the Superior portion of the pack. If the superior pack is purchased, Flashback offers will be shown afterwards.

This is very much us testing the waters, so it may or may not be a permanent change. We’re hoping it works out!


Guild Coin hoarders rejoice! It is now possible to open 10 Grab Bags at the same time.


We followed up on a widely requested feature and reworked the blueprint details screen to include a new tab showcasing the Airship Power for Dragon Invasion and Favor value for King’s Caprice, even if those events aren’t currently active. We also took this opportunity to move over other item stats previously hidden behind a tooltip to this new tab.

• For party preset enjoyers, the quest screen will now remember (between sessions) your last used tab between the Hero list and the Party Preset list.
  
• It is now possible to mass invest in a capped out building.
  
• Aurasongs and Familiars assigned to Guest Champions will stay with those champions until their next visit.

• Significantly increased the Worker XP obtained from Dual Wield and Quiver items.

The King will return as a Guest Champion starting on March 3rd until March 6th.

The format in which currency displays in the webstore is now localized based on your browser preferences. 

For example, a user in a United States locale will see the USD pricing displayed as $18.99, while a user in a Canada locale would see it displayed as US$18.99. The format will differ based on the standard set in your preferred locale.

You can change your locale by going into your browser language settings and selecting a language and region preference.

• Champion requests will no longer ask for items you cannot craft, typically premium blueprints for which you do not own the worker.
  
• Fixed an issue where Velites would wield the Goldmane Guard upside down.
  
• The Command Console decoration no longer accumulates snow during the winter snow event.
  
• Fixed the Ancestor Spirit filter missing from Advanced Search.
  
• Fixed push notifications not working for some events, such as Lost City of Gold.
  
• The Platinum Pair blueprint no longer requires two Tier 3 resources, the Ether cost has been removed and an Iron cost added.

This update is slated for release next week!


Curl up and pay attention, for it’s time for a new Lunar New Year content pass! This slithery pass contains some surprisingly scaly stuff, such as blueprints and customizations. Complete tasks and earn Snake Fangs to unlock them!

Players who complete every task in this content pass will receive the Venomous title, but it’s not a blank card to be toxic!

The event will run from January 21st until February 18th.

If dogs and dragons aren't your style, may we interest you in this extra lengthy companion?

This danger noodle is eager to slither around your shop, and is exclusive to the Year of the Snake content pass!


For display purposes only. Not indicative of actual rewards.
It’s time for our yearly red envelopes! Login every day between January 23rd and February 11th to claim rewards!

We’ve also taken this opportunity to significantly revamp our login calendar mechanic. Not only does it look a bit nicer, it also allows for extra flexibility on the player’s part. The event will run for 20 days with 14 rewards available to claim. Only one reward can be claimed per day, but you’ll have some extra wiggle room in case you miss a day or two! Unlike previously, rewards are now claimed in order, so it is no longer possible to skip over and miss a reward by missing a single day.

Log in at any time during the Login Calendar to receive a free Snake Statue, as well as a skin variant depending on your platform! Nobody’s stopping you from logging in on different platforms to claim them all either. The different platforms are Android, iOS, Epic Games Store, and Steam!

But wait, there’s more! Login anytime between February 10th and the 14th for another giveaway! The Lantern Pond decoration! It’s pretty big!

The Sia and Yami blitz passes are now available for new players.

Following the Guild Finder change a few months back, we’ve now also updated the Guild Member Finder tool. Beyond simply searching for a specific player, it will now also automatically list a few players that the game thinks could be a good match for your current guild. From there, you can send an invitation. There’s no guarantee they’ll accept, though.

• Increased the character limit for promo codes from 14 to 20.

Another round of optimization has been done. Internal reports show reductions in RAM usage by up to 100 MB on iOS, and up to 200MB on Android and PC. Possible memory leak issues have also been resolved. We still recommend playing on devices with at least 4GB of RAM.

In other news, also optimized other inefficiencies during long play sessions, particularly those that involved trips to the city screen. Something about generating thousands of shoes.

• All Platinum items now have the Ancestor Spirit as their spirit affinity, replacing the Quetzalcoatl.
  
• The Silken Assailants blueprint now requires steel rather than ironwood.
  
• The Owl Wing Wand now has a dual affinity with Water due to its connection with Lilu.
  
• Slightly increased the value of the Platinum Wand.
  
• Platinum Wand upgrades now reduce the Platinum Bangle cost by 1.

Some backend improvements have been made to the login process to make it a bit more reliable and communicate errors better. We will continue to look at improving the experience further where possible.

Sessions (i.e. being logged in) can now be retained on up to five clients (devices, browsers, etc.), this should allow you to remain logged in on your phone and PC at the same time for purchases.

As an added security option (given the increase to up to five simultaneous sessions mentioned above), you can now force logout of all other existing sessions by using the "Sign in and sign out of all other devices" option when signing into the webstore. 

Useful for when you no longer have access to a device you previously granted a longer session retention period to and you want to invalidate it.

By default, the webstore will now only remember your session for 2 hours (this doesn't apply to existing sessions). To increase this session retention period to 30 days simply enable the "Remember me for 30 days" option when signing into the webstore.

I’ll be available as a guest Champion on February 3rd until the 6th!

• Fixed the Platinum Blueprint icon showing up as Water instead.
  
• Fixed a rare Party Preset bug where some members could be considered invalid and prevent the start of a quest.
  
• Fixed the footprint of the pizza table decoration.
  
• Fixed an issue where Reinhold’s Caprices would sometimes ask for multiple premium blueprint lines at once. One at a time, please!
  
• Fixed a disconnect related to Dragon Invasion.
  
• Fixed an issue where Hero Slots unlocked through the content pass did not properly unlock Party Preset slots.
  
• Fixed an issue where the content pass icon would always show a notification as if there was a reward to claim.
  
• Updated the icon of the Ancestor Spirit to better match other Lost City of Gold spirits.

This update is slated for release next week.


It’s starting to look a lot like Christmas! Starting on December 16th, complete festive tasks and collect Candy Canes to unlock wintery rewards! You have until the 29th!

The star of this content pass is the Santa’s Present Bag quiver, available as a bonus reward. If you can’t use quivers, there’s still a Hero slot (your next one), a Titan Soul and 3 antique blueprints for you in the premium reward track!

Players who complete every single task will be awarded the North Star title. Shine boldly above the rest!

When searching for items on the market, the Element (and Spirit) filters will now also take item affinities into account. For example, filtering for Water Swords will find the Caladbolg, as it is a sword enchanted with Water. New in this update however, it will also display the Kiku-Ichimonji (Water affinity) and Materia Blade (All affinity).

You’ll need to add the element yourself, but it should help with everyday Hero management.

• Following some confusion with the Veteran’s ability, Veteran owners opening a hero’s reroll list will always see the Epic skill segment unfolded by default.

• To resolve an exploit, Resource Worker visitors will now only consider your 5 highest level resource bins of that type when selling you a quantity of resources. The Dragon’s Hoard does not count against this limit.
  
• Reduced the Platinum Bangle cost of the Platinum Element by 2.

The webstore’s interface has been updated and is now segmented by tabs based on offer categories for quicker navigation.

You’ll find categories for common offers such as “Gems”, “Currencies” and “Champion Coins”, along with more personalized categories such as “Featured Offers” which includes Mega Packs and offers tailored to your progression (i.e. Naya offers).

It feels wonderful to be alive! Wonderful enough to risk my lovely neck in some quests? Perhaps! I shall be available as a guest Champion on December 9th until the 12th!

• Visitors interacting with the Candy Bowl now play the proper animation.
  
• Fixed a bug causing wearers of the Lone Wolf Cowl to completely skip resting time when paired with some Champions.
  
• The Jagged Duo blueprint is now a pair of blue and yellow maces as intended.
  
• Fixed Dual Wield and Quiver item type filters appearing in the crafting and fusion menus if you don’t own a blueprint for either.
  
• Fixed an instance where the Bounty Board menu could become unresponsive or freeze.
  
• Fixed an issue where the stats displayed upon using a Champion Titan Soul would be inaccurate
  
• Fixed a text issue in bounties where some localized texts would appear too big.
  
• Improved the purchase animation of dual wield weapons
  
• Fixed Zombie customers sliding out of the shop after buying a dual wield item.
  
• Roland now has a shadow. The lore implications were concerning.

With the renewed interest in bounties, our grab bags are seeing a matching surge in popularity. To help players rob us blind, we’re implementing an option to open multiple bags in one go. Look forward to it!

Attention, soldiers! Roland Knecht has arrived!

Hailing from many battlefields, the Veteran is now ready to settle in more peaceful pastures. He brings with him a wealth of military knowledge, including the ability to craft Dual Wield Weapons and Quivers!

But that’s not all. As a renowned drill instructor, he knows how to whip those Heroes into shape! His Premium Worker ability allows you to, once per Hero, replace a skill with any skill of your choice. The only restrictions are that it must be a skill that Hero can learn normally, and one that is not already known to the Hero. It can be any skill slot and any skill rarity.

All Heroes, new and old, can benefit from this effect once each.

Roland is available for purchase for players at level 32 or higher.


In a world where ammo is infinite, can there be a market for quivers? If there is a will, there is a way. These quivers are quite the bundle and contain arrows, bolts and bullets at the same time!

Due to this, it also has a few special rules. One, it can only be equipped alongside a Gun, Crossbow or Bow. It’s not too useful otherwise! If it’s equipped alongside another weapon, it will be disabled and provide no stat bonuses.

Two, it bears a special affinity for Bows, which gain a 30% item bonus when equipped alongside a quiver. One cannot name a more iconic duo, after all.

Rest assured however that Guns, Crossbows and Bows can still function without the help of a quiver if one prefers.


Perhaps our most unique item type yet!

From a crafting point of view, Dual wield is conventional. It is its own blueprint line, with its own Ascension Milestones and Advanced Research. Let’s take the Crystal Destroyers blueprint, for example. It is a Dual Wield blueprint featuring an Axe and a Mace. The result is a single item (Crystal Destroyers) that can be sold and equipped normally, benefitting from Dual Wield crafting upgrades, but not from Axe or Mace ones.

When it comes to Heroes though, things get more unique. No Hero class can explicitly equip Dual Wield items. So long as they can normally wield one of the weapons part of the Dual Wield, they can wield it! A Cleric for example could equip the Crystal Destroyers, even if they can’t normally use Axes.

This logic is similar for Hero skills. While no skill specifically enhances Dual Wield, other skills such as Mace Master would grant their full bonus to the Crystal Destroyers. Similarly, a Thief (with its innate bonus to Daggers) with the Sword Master skill would receive the benefit of both skills if equipped with a Sword/Dagger Dual Wield item. Do keep in mind however that a single skill (e.g Warlord) will never grant its bonus twice.

We’ve overhauled the Guild Finder algorithm to more accurately find guilds suitable for the user. We’re also currently working on improving the Member Finder, which should help guilds find members from dead guilds.

• Restored the Guild’s Choice option to the guild settings.
  
• The Scholar now shows up at level 15. Previously, she showed as soon as the player crafted a few enchantments, which could lead to some confusion.
  
• Since everyone’s doing bounties now, there’s a bit of competition on the bounty board. We’ve added 3 new guild upgrades to increase the amount of bounties available at once.
  
• With Dual Wield and Quivers, we now have a lot of blueprint lines with special rules! Deep within the blueprint details of relevant items, we’ve added a line explaining these special rules, if any. In the future, we’ll look into a more visible solution.
  
• Improved the visual clarity of contribution amounts in the guild contribution menu in events.

• Druidic Grimoire Ascension upgrades now reduce the quality of its Noble Ring components to Normal, rather than removing one of them.
  
• “Sell X Gold Worth of items” bounties are now a bit harder, and “Surcharge X gold worth of items” bounties are now a bit easier.
  
• Small talk bounties are now a bit easier to account for the failure chance.
  
• “Spend Resource” bounties are now a bit easier.
  
• Each bounty type normally goes on a cooldown for some time before it can resurface. This cooldown has been halved, allowing them to show up again faster.

Shopkeepers alike — but especially to those who only play on iOS — with the release of the 18.0 Update it will now be possible to redeem promotional codes on the official Shop Titans website!

Head over to the Promo Code Redemption page once the update has been released and sign into Kabam Cross Connect to redeem any promo code directly from the web. Please ensure you read the information on the page for full details on the process.

Premium Workers will now be available for purchase directly from the webstore, including the all-new Veteran worker, Roland!

Personalized offers Naya periodically brings you will also now be available for purchase from the webstore.

I will be available as a Guest Champion on November 11th until the 14th! But don’t let my presence distract you! I still need these items!

• Fixed the drum-type instruments animating weird during quests.
  
• Added the missing Air affinity on the Nightwing Shoes.
  
• Premium bounties now grant more guild coins, as they used to.
  
• Fixed instances of Cloak bounties not being set as Premium.
  
• Fixed Aurasong bounties showing up as Swords instead.
  
• Fixed the gold counter not being abbreviated in some instances.
  
• Fixed a crash involving bounties in non-English languages
  
• Last Tower of Titans was missing some of its usual rewards. They have been added to the next tower as a bonus.
  
• Fusions will no longer prioritize locked and enchanted items.
  
• Fixed an instance where customers would walk out shop for no discernible reason.
  
• Fixed item value bounties not taking into account milestone upgrades.
  
• Fixed the “Contact Us” button in Settings leading to an invalid page on PC platforms.

This update is slated for release next week!

Halloween is creeping up, but as a spirit herself, Zolea finds the city’s Halloween spirit to be lacking! She requests that all shopkeepers serve trick or treaters with zeal!

For the duration of the event, the entire community must serve 75 million customers! Any sale made in the shop counts, including king sales and Champion requests! If this challenge is completed, Zolea will reward all players with the following:

• 50 Ascension Shards
  
• 50 Antique Tokens
  
• 50 Dragonmarks
  
• 5 Limited Edition!

But there’s more! On the third day of the event, a Secret Challenge will be revealed. Completing both challenges in time will cause Zolea to overflow with joy (and Halloween spirit). She will DOUBLE her Essence regeneration rate for an entire year! You don’t wanna miss that one!

As with last time, event progress will be shared every day through in-game mails as well as on our website. The event will run from October 21st and end on the 26th. If all challenges are completed, the Essence bonus reward will be implemented in the next update.

Another content pass so soon? And it’s got new stuff, too! Complete tasks and gather Candies for a tummy ache and cool new exclusive rewards! On top of cool new blueprints, there’s some outstanding decorations and customizations this time around!

• The Candy Bowl decoration invites customers to take candy from its bowl. This decoration tracks how many candies were taken!
  
• The Ghostkeeper customization uses bedsheet technology to turn your shopkeeper into a very convincing apparition! Your arms are not available, but you don’t need those anyway.
  
• As the Grand Prize, there is the Ghastly Cowl rogue hat! It’s a cool Tier 14 you don’t wanna miss!

Ardent trick or treaters can also unlock the Candy Fiend title by completing every single task in the Content Pass.

The Halloween Neighborhood Content Pass will run from October 1st until the 29th.

Bounty balance has received a significant overhaul. Gone are the days of bounties asking for 9  highly specific crafts. They will now prefer asking for tiers, gold value, or simply crafts of any item or an item type rather than a specific item. In addition, bounties asking for specific item types will scale with your progress within that item type. Most other bounty types have received similar changes to make them flexible. 

Do keep in mind however that once some members of a guild start updating to the latest version, players of the same guild who have not yet updated may see their bounty board stop generating bounties. This is a necessary inconvenience while two incompatible systems coexist in the same guild, but should be resolved once all members have updated.

In addition, any bounties currently in progress will be wiped after updating.

Some blueprints had a particular affinity for multiple elements. In these cases, their Affinity can now support up to two elements! A list of items affected by this change can be found at the bottom of these patch notes.

• Gems earned from level ups are now part of the level up screen itself, rather than a separate celebration screen.
  
• Clarified the rulings for equipment never breaking during single-round quests. Sunglasses will now appear on the party only if the quest is expected to last only one round AND that no party members are defeated. This will guarantee a break-free quest.

King Reinhold will be available as a guest champion on October 14th until the 17th.

• Updated the Dunes and Beachside floorings so that they mesh better together.
  
• Fixed item icons looking a bit crunchy.
  
• Fixed a few Rudo skill strings.
  
• Fixed a few Wallpapers and Floorings that refused to show up as antiques in the antique store.
  
• AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA is gone but not forgotten.
  
• Fixed the Favored Quest popup becoming misaligned when switching from landscape to portrait or vice versa.
  
• Fixed some blueprints (e.g. Artifact blueprints) displaying "x1" instead of "Exclusive" on offers.
  
• Fixed some offers not displaying the tier of a blueprint.
  
• Fixed furniture not properly sorting new decorations first in some scenarios.
  
• Improved the visual clarity of the energy count on customer interaction buttons. (legends say that it's actually true this time).

The following blueprints have been updated to Dual Affinity:

• Zeus Thunderblade
  
• Thorn of Scorn
  
• Wiccan Dagger
  
• Smash Hit
  
• Mjolnir
  
• Whack-o-Lantern
  
• Yule's Herald
  
• Somnus Boltcaster
  
• Baross Backup
  
• Nightwing Caster
  
• Elysium Skylophone

• Thorn Baron Helm
  
• Titan Admiral Hat
  
• Harvester's Hood
  
• Sakura Eboshi
  
• Waterproof Lilycap

• Sacred Scarab
  
• Jade Lotus Loop
  
• Giant Moth Wings
  
• Coastal Towel
  
• Woven Lilycloak
  
• Vampire Wings
  
• Aura of Sparks

It is now possible to assign a Favored Quest to a party preset. Whenever a Favored Quest is selected, the default party will be chosen among those with that quest as favorite, provided the team is rested and ready to go.


Troublins tremble! The Mega Dungeon Content Pass has come! It features blueprints themed around our many dungeons, with the Troublin Bento as the Grand Prize. Complete tasks to collect Emblems and unlock all this content!

Super Dungeoneers can work towards the Dungeon Master title, unlocked only by completing every single task of the event.

The Mega Dungeon Content Pass will run for two weeks, starting on September 10th and ending on September 25th.

Previously, the Break system was a needlessly complex matter. To put it simply, items would roll to break every round, making it very punishing for low damage parties, even if they could otherwise reliably tank their way to victory. It made for a very uneven experience across players which could be very frustrating, particularly during the Lost City of Gold event.

As of now, each quest instead has a specific amount of Break attempts it will do among items owned by quest survivors. Items can resist these break attempts with their Break Chance, with item quality, the Engineer and similar bonuses applying as normal.

As an added bonus, very early quests no longer break items (or have very low break chance) to ease in new players and allow them to stockpile repair kits.

Memory usage footprint from textures reduced by approximately 30% and app size by around 10%.

• When visiting a guildmate’s shop and their game version differs from yours, the message now more accurately explains what’s going on.
  
• Aurasongs can now break. Familiars were (and remain) unbreakable to avoid gruesome implications, but this immunity was extended to Aurasongs by default due to them also being Champion items.
  
• If you haven’t played in a while, the King may show up at your counter. This will generate a notification on your phone, which can be enabled or disabled from your Settings.
  
• Added visual indicators to specify which quest a chest is from in the Chest Opening screen.
  
• Adjusted the "Repair" button on the item break screen to display both the repair cost and the total amount of repair kits a player has.
  
• Adjusted the text of some Ascension Milestones bonuses from "Tier >N" to "Tier N+" for clarity.
  
• Clarified Slot rewards in Content Passes to better show which slot is being unlocked.
  
• Standardized the language used for Cancel/Exit/None buttons across multiple UIs.
  
• The 23rd quest upgrade of every quest has been replaced with -20% item breaks. The XP bonus it replaces has been added to the 21st upgrade.

• Rudo now provides a general Break Chance Reduction bonus to the party, no longer limited to the first rounds of the battle. At max rank, it is 50%.

King Reinhold will be available as a Guest Champion on September 16th, leaving on the 19th.

• Fixed bounties never asking for high tier stones and enchantments.
  
• Rearranged the item type order of the craft list back to its original setup.
  
• Fixed Vanity gear gradually stripping itself when repeatedly tapping on an equipped vanity item.
  
• Fixed the Polonia’s Jolly Roger not properly stacking with other furniture, including carpets surprisingly enough.
  
• Increased stats on the Jambon du Donjon blueprint.
  
• Fixed an issue where only one of the guild requirements needed to be met to join a guild.
  
• Improved the error message when logging into the game with an outdated client.
  
• Fixed Enchantments not being considered in the Collection Book.
  
• Fixed the tooltip for player titles obstructing the player title itself.
  
• Fixed an instance where Dragonmarks could obstruct the Energy meter.
  
• Fixed the Piggy Bank’s progress bar appearing green despite being claimed.
  
• Fixed Guild Rank not updating until switching tabs in the Guild Info menu.
  
• Fixed the “Craft” button missing from the “Missing requirements” menu for Enchantments.

Bounties have been in a weird place for a long time, best described as “tiresome”. They ask for highly specific crafts that rarely overlap with the current goals of the player, forcing them to choose between progress and bounty completion.

As part of this refactor, we’ll be introducing a greater variety of tasks. They are inspired by those found in Content Passes, such as “craft 100 tiers of bows” rather than “Craft 10 Gemini Strike”.

This update is slated for release next week!


A very consistent request over our many years of Shop Titans, and due to this, a natural addition to this community update!

Upon unlocking the Sun God’s Tomb (the first quest featuring 4 party members), the Party Preset menu will be unlocked. There, you can set up your own parties for quicker quest preparation in the future. Players have access to one Party slot per 3 Hero slots they have unlocked. You can give them names, too!


The Piggy Banks have received substantial changes! The Golden Pig in particular now prominently features various antiques, with very high chances of generating a decoration, customization, wallpaper or flooring. There’s also a small chance to roll a blueprint!*

In addition, new players will start the weekly pig cycle with a Golden Pig immediately. After opening it, they’ll need to open one regular pig before their next Golden Pig. The next cycle will require 2 regular pigs, and so on until they reach the usual and final cycle of 6 regular pigs per Golden Pig. Though it is meant as an introductory progression for new players, current players will also get to benefit from it.

Other changes:

• The Golden Pig now drops bigger stacks of Ascension Shards and Research Scrolls (25 instead of 10).
  
• The Golden Pig is more likely to drop better Keys (specifically, Volcano and up).
  
• The Golden Pig now drops bigger stacks of Champion Coins (30 instead of 5).
  
• As the Golden Pig no longer features Gems, the regular pigs drop higher quantities (25 instead of 15).
  
• Regular pigs no longer drop quest components. Runestones and Moonstones are still available.
  
• The gold amount required to open a daily piggy bank has always scaled with the value of blueprints owned by the payer. Starting now, blueprints that have never been crafted will not be taken into account.

*As a special rule, on top of the usual Antique rules, blueprints must be at least one year old to become valid Golden Pig prizes. They also cannot be of a tier higher than you’ve ever crafted.

This is a crafting challenge for all of you! Maces and Spears clash!

Every shopkeeper must work together to craft 25 million tiers worth of Maces and Spears! You’ll have one week, but if everyone pitches in, we know you can do it!

If the community manages to reach this goal, we’ll be giving out one free blueprint to everyone. But! There’s also a choice to be made here!

The two available blueprints are the Tower of Thorns Mace and the Blackthorn Razor Spear. Whichever item type generated the most tiers will be crowned the winner, and its blueprint will be given out. The other will fade into oblivion forever*.

The event starts on August 16th and ends on the 23rd. Blueprints crafted before this date will not count. A mail will be sent announcing the start of the event, and progress will be reported through daily mails, as well as daily updates on our website.

*It will probably come back as part of an offer or something.

We’ve added a few new decorations, wallpapers and floorings, available for little gold and at early levels. Except for the golden toilet skin. That one costs 1 billion gold.

New colors have been added to the list. Some existing colors have been slightly modified.

There’s a lot of guilds out there. Too many, some would argue. Joining a good guild is a vital part of a player’s Shop Titans journey, but due to the sheer quantity of them, the player base tends to get fragmented into a bunch of half-full guilds, constantly battling to acquire more members.

Starting with this update, it will no longer be possible to create a guild with gold. This option is exclusive to gems and now costs 500 (up from 200). We’ll be closely monitoring the results over the following weeks and may loosen (or tighten) these restrictions.

• Attempting to clean up a player’s shop whose version is mismatched will now automatically clear the notification and also grant you the reward. The text message will be updated shortly to better reflect this.
  
• Newly acquired decorations, wallpapers and floorings are now sorted first in the list until seen by the player. No longer need to dig in there!
  
• Improved the visuals of the Tier 14 enchantment icons to better match the previous tiers.
  
• Extra Trophies granted by the Cooking the Books talent now look a little bit different.
  
• When equipping Vanity Gear, it is now possible to choose the displayed color of Kaleidoscopic items. Finally.
  
• The loading screen now features basic gameplay tips.
  
• Guilds can now set a minimum investment requirement in addition to the minimum level requirement.
  
• There is now a visual cue when the Crafter’s Trick and Zero Waste talents trigger.
  
• Content Passes are now available starting at level 20, up from level 8.
  
• Adjusted the difficulty of many Lilu Blitz Pass tasks as they were rather difficult.
  
• Added a filter for Artifacts to the inventory’s Advanced Search.
  
• Enchantments on items can once again be modified from the Market or Dragon Invasion menu.

The next phase of the webstore is almost here. Starting after the release of 17.2 — on or around August 19th — the webstore will begin supporting a selection of personalized offers. You will now be able to purchase the latest Mega and Superior Packs directly from the webstore!

During this initial rollout, the following offers will be supported:

• Mega Packs
  
• Superior Packs
  
• Flashback Offers

As we look towards the future and as previously hinted, we will continue to work towards supporting more personalized offers, such as Naya offers.

King Reinhold will be available as a Guest Champion on August 19th, leaving on the 22nd.

• Further fixes to artifact components on the Market.
  
• Fixed a bug where the Yule’s Herald and Platinum Scepter staves shared the same power level as the Scepter of Ever-Wisdom. This reduces their stats and also removes the secondary stat from the Platinum Scepter.
  
• Fixed an issue where, while attempting to reroll a skill, other mutually exclusive skills would not display as part of the possible skill list, even though they would be valid results from this reroll.
  
• Fixed the Titan Spirit missing audio.
  
• Fixed Lone Wolf Hood wearers receiving bonuses from Champion Skills on the Airship during Dragon Invasion.
  
• Fixed a display issue that would occur when a customer already carrying an instrument would buy another instrument. Purchasing a new instrument will now overwrite the previous one.
  
• Fixed a minor display issue causing icons to appear grayed out on the “Missing requirements” popup.
  
• Fixed an issue where shop space could not be switched into a yard.

These release notes previously — erroneously — listed the following as changed in this release; it is instead slated for a future release:

• Updated the visuals of the surcharge energy cost value to make it easier to read.

This update is slated for release next week!


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.

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.

It’s finally available! You can fuse your own Seeds of Merit with the following recipe:

• 10x Seeds of Vitality
  
• 10x Seeds of Power
  
• 10x Seeds of Resistance
  
• 3x Mega XP Drinks
  
• 15x Supreme Moonstones

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.


Two new Major Artifacts have been added to the Major Artifact chest. Their components are also now available.

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.

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.

• Champion equipment restrictions now use the same rules as Heroes do, with each item tier using the same level requirement as Heroes do. Previously, there were no restrictions at all.
  
• Added a market and inventory filter for Artifact Components.

King Reinhold will be available as a Guest Champion on July 22nd, leaving on the 25th.

• The Pride Heart decoration is no longer mysteriously limited to 5 per shop.
  
• Fixed Ashley and Bjorn doubling the effect of Boosters during Flash Quests and Bosses, respectively.
  
• Fixed Mercenaries not properly increasing the benefits of a Rest Time reduction.
  
• Added audio for Tier 14 Spirits.
  
• Properly fixed success rate for enchantments with mismatched qualities.
  
• Fixed a Shop Edit bug that could allow players to store their last Trunk.
  
• Fixed the Dragon’s Hoard not properly displaying its bonuses upon upgrade.
  
• Turned the Bug Catcher’s Net built-in element into Earth affinity. Existing items should keep their Wild elements.
  
• Fixed Kaleidoscopic items (affinity items that change color when enchanted, that’s what we’re calling them now) displaying as a white box when enchanted with T14 elements.
  
• Fixed a bug with the Enchantment Establishment talent, causing it to increase the value higher than indicated.
  
• Fixed an issue where the second enchantment on an item could provide more value than the item’s base value.
  
• Fixed an issue preventing gem prices from displaying when purchasing copies of furniture obtained from offers.
  
• Fixed a rare issue where an Aurasong could temporarily not be equipped on a Champion.
  
• Fixed an issue where Artifact Components could appear as Bounty Board tasks.
  
• Attempted fix for an issue where the shine effect could remain stuck on a reward after claiming it in event reward tracks.
  
• Updated the gem cost of some Counter upgrades past level 20 as they were lower than intended.
  
• Added market filters for Tier 14 spirits and the Goose Spirit.
  
• Fixed the Titan Spirit restrictions displaying on unrelated skills. This was a purely visual issue.

• Reintroduced the Spellknight skill multiplier bug as there was no elegant way of restoring its lost stats.
