Blackthorn Arena - Muffin XXL
Dear players of the Blackthorns arena:
We sincerely apologize for the delay of the update, the large update we originally planned to launch at the end of June will be postponed until mid-July. This is mainly due to two reasons:

First of all, after we made a lot of new content and tested it, the performance of the test is not very satisfactory. We would like to ask a little more time to polish and improve some Details;

Secondly, we will add localization of five new languages ​​after the update (respectively Italian, French, German , Spanish and Russian), and our translators will need time to supplement the translation of new content since the official release in order to provide a localized experience that is as complete as possible.

In general, we hope that the updated version 1.1 (we will both update 1.0 + 1.1 in the same time) will become a fairly complete and stable version, so we would like to ask for more time to polish the game carefully and optimize all the unsatisfactory details.

Therefore, the content of this update will be more abundant than any of our previous updates, and it will be worth your wait.

The following are the main contents of the major 1.1 update :

1) Multiple optimizations of UI and sound effects.

2) A new special arena : The temple of the god of war Gortus.

3) New post-challenge : Gortus' Endless Challenge.

4) Several new legendary weapons.

5) Several new monsters.

6) Add a new kind of side mission map.

7) New build template system : Some NPC gladiators will automatically use build template. (In addition to the current NPC champion, NPC gladiators will have a large number of powerful(epic) gladiators )

8) The AI ​​trigger has been greatly improved.

9) Add a new plot mission.

10) New weapon skill and Genre : Martial arts and Monk ( Monk might need another week of time to import into the game)

11) New online leaderboard system: players can upload or download their own or other players' gladiator data while challenging other players' championships! (Half online mode)

12) A new DLC, including a new plot mission and a new plot competition. The final rewards are two sets of legendary armor symbolizing the goddess of victory, Alyanas, and the god of war, Gortus.

In addition to the above, other interesting content will be added.

We once again apologize for the delay in our update and also thank you players for your continued support and understanding of the Blackthorn Gladiator. We will also work harder to improve the game. If you have any suggestions or feedback, please leave your comment below.

4) Three new helmets have been added.

Balance adjustment:

1) The basic maintenance cost of all slaves has been reduced by 10 copper coins.

2) For every 100% of life lost in the battle, the health lost is reduced from 40-60 to 25-40.

3) The daily basic treatment speed of the treatment room is increased from 10 to 15 per day.

4) The Stamina damage received by the block has been reduced from 150% of the base damage to 125%.

5) Ranged attacks only cause half of the Stamina damage to the blockers.

6) The income from holding competitions has decreased by 20% overall.

7) Most of the single control skills can not be cast on the large enemies.

We made such a balance change, the purpose is to hope that players can train more gladiators to take turns in battle or perform multiple tasks at the same time. Rather than as before, which is to train four elite gladiators from the beginning to the final game of the game. Now the difficulty of veterans and above will be significantly increased, players need to be good at using the benefits of side missions to maintain the operation and available manpower of the arena. We strongly recommend that players send their teams as far as possible to perform side mission while joing the arena battle. Please note that the time of the side mission is parallel to participating in the arena battle, and it will not take days to perform the side mission.
