Dear Warlords:

We will be conducting server maintenance during the period of 6 am to 8 am, 19th, Sep (UTC+8). The estimated maintenance time is approximately 2 hours. Here is the patch note：

1.Mercenaries unit recruit
During past two months, Warlords from different regions in Conqueror's Blade: Frontier were super active in the market, making silver coins become the hard currency in the game. Now the recruit for Mercenary of Commander Adler in Boderlands also will be available in the market. As the best elite mercenaries unit, Mercenary of Commander Adler also have a relatively higher price.
Now Warlords can use silver coins to recruit mercenaries unit in War Scholar.
Relevant prices are as follows:
---Black Dragon Arches: 250,000 silver coins
---Black Dragon Javelineers：400,000 silver coins
---Sea Stag Deathdealers: 400,000 silver coins
---Black Dragon Pikemen: 700,000 silver coins
---Black Dragon Spearmen: 700,000 silver coins





2.Important updates: Expansion material for personal storage
Many Warlords have told us that personal storage didn't have enough space. This time we add expansion function to personal storage. One expansion material will increase eight slots.
---You chan check out the residue space in the upper right of personal storage and click "+" to expand it.
---Expansion material of personal storage will be available in the market and Apothecary, the price is 1,000 sovereigns / 200,000 silver coins. We offer 50% discount only lasting for 14 days and each Warlord can only buy 2 expansion materials at most.
---The personal storage only allowed to be expanded for nine times at most. You can sell spare expansion materials to other Warlords in the market.



3.Important bug fixes:
---Fixed the bug that Pikemen unit moved too slowly when they crashed with each other.
---Fixed the bug that Pikemen unit couldn’t form up quickly.

4.Unit balances
1) Halberdiers unit in Phalanx formation
Fixed the incorrect description of damage effect in Phalanx formation, actually it should be "intensive weapons" rather than "bracing weapons"
Bracing weapons：quickly respond, good at fighting against the cavalry strike
Intensive weapons：can be used after formation completed, slower than bracing weapon. Back row troops can cause extremely high damage and good at defending.

2) Imperial Archers:
Many Warlords have told us that the shoot range and damage of the Imperial Archers couldn't reach their expectations. We also noticed that the win rate and utilization rate of this unit was slightly lower than other units of Heroic Era. The design concept of this unit was to utilize bodkin arrows to break the heavy armor while losing some shoot speed and damage. But we found that it's damage has been greatly decreased after breaking the heavy armor. Our adjustments are as follows:
---Increased the shoot speed of Bodkin Arrows by 25%
---Increased the damage of Bodkin Arrows by 12.5%

5.Territory war optimization
Made optimization to the regional layout in Helie, Yuanxin and Louge, etc
1)Opened a gate on the left side of Commander’s House behind defender’s camp flag and added relevant internal accesses to increase the defend path heading to the final flag.



2)Added a small-scale training yard on the right side of defender’s camp flag to allow Warlords have more choices to defend or attack the final flag.



3)Widened the access alongside the wall of the Main gate.



6.System optimization
1) Added the resources collecting process, you can check it in the unit technology interface.



2) Now Warlords can check badges achieved during the battle in the group settlement interface.



3) Now Warlords can report other player in the settlement interface by right click on the character name and then click the report button

7.Bug fixes
1)Hero bug fixes
Fixed a bug that when Warlords used several skills to change one certain attribute, the attribute can only be influenced once.

2) Unit bug fixes
Imperial Arquebusiers:
Fixed a bug that sometimes the volley fire couldn’t shoot
Fixed a bug that the Three-stage training will decrease the defence
Fixed a bug that the Corned gunpowder and Three-stage training will also have effect to normal attack

Fixed a bug that the Imperial Spear Guards can equip the Epic Spear Doctrine V and the Legendary Healing Doctrine
Fixed a bug that the stun immune effect of Tough Nut couldn't come into effect

Fixed the incorrect type of the Legendary Crossbow Doctrine
Fixed a bug that pikemen couldn't bracing correctly
Fixed a bug that in the battlefield, the unit flag sometimes changed into house flag
Fixed a bug that sometimes the health of Spearmen units could be restored automatically.

3) level bug fixes
Fixed a bug that after Warlords changing their units, new units couldn’t been seen by other alliances in the TAB interface
Fixed a bug that sometimes siege engines could shoot automatically during deployment
Fixed a bug that sometimes battering ram couldn’t fall back after breaking the main gate
Fixed a bug that Warlords could be stuck in two locations in the Volley Fortress siege

4) miscellaneous bug fixes
Fixed a bug that some Warlords can get rewards in the weekly quests retrieve system repeatedly
Fixed the abnormal reminder when part of achievements have been completed
Fixed the incorrect icon of resource piles
Fixed the incorrect dialogue of some NPCs
Fixed the abnormal pathfinding to Watchman in the Augolia city
Fixed the abnormal display of the level requirement of Warlords in the match-making interface

Dear Warlords,

Hi Warlords,

Several weeks ago, we have noticed that some fiefs could be captured in the early morning. Then we made an announcement about the ownership and later occupation of fiefs after their house no longer exist. We thought it would be in line with your expectations to adjust the capture time for these fiefs.

Now the NPC house will take over the fief automatically after the house been dissolved. Other houses need to make declaration and then conduct attack in the territory war before capturing these fiefs.

We would like to apologize for this late announcement. We always try our best to share adjustments and fixes to all Warlords in time.

Have fun in Conqueror's Blade: Frontier.

Dear Warlords:
It's has been two months since we conducted Early Access on steam for Conqueror's Blade: Frontier (SEA server). In the past two months, all the Warlords, as a community, gathered together in the world of Conqueror’s Blade and experienced excited battles in Maoyang, Liangyun, Ostaria, Ungverija and Borderlands.
We also noticed that some Warlords discussed about the content and future development of our game in the community. Our designers also had in-depth discussion about every comments. This time we will share our ideas and plans for some core problems that you may concerned.

Q1: The background story of SEA server?
A1: Everyone knows that we have publisher in EU/NA and CN region. However, the SEA server on Steam is fully operated by our own developer team. To be frankly, this is a brave decision. It’s took a long time for us to consider a proper name for our game. At last, we decided to call it Conqueror’s Blade: Frontier. We hope to establish a fast and effective channel on SEA server to get feedbacks and communicate with all Warlords.
So we selected several colleagues who have full passion towards operation and community management to be part of our first operation team. At the beginning of establishment, we have been devoted to solving bugs and technical problems. After several comprehensive discussions between our operation and developer team, we are starting to move forward as our game became more and more stable.
We should admit that there was some deficiencies in our operation work:

-Sometimes we might be a little inexperienced facing some unexpected problems;
-Sometimes we couldn't answer your feedbacks in-time due to the shortage of manpower;
-Some bugs couldn't be quickly handled due to the complex game system;
-We didn't have enough communication with community in advance and always let you know the updated content in the patch note;
-We could have conduct more transparent discussions about numerous design ideas;
-Insufficient operation experience have caused many difficulties while we improving the game environment.

We will make improvements accordingly. Although there are numerous difficulties, we will try our best to keep improving SEA server.

Q2：What is the main characteristic of SEA server?
A2: First of all, we hope to build the SEA server into a platform where player with different culture backgrounds can compete with each other. We believe it will generate a quite different ecology. The original design thoughts of Conqueror’s Blade: Frontier is to create a dream battlefield with communication between different civilizations. So the SEA server is the best place for this battle spirit to grow.

Q3: Are we going to take seriously the promotion of the SEA server?
A3: Absolutely YES. In order to live up to your trust, we want to share our plan.
Currently, we have stop our propaganda strategically. That is because the relatively low evaluation in steam makes it hard for us to bring in new players and we also can't guarantee an excellent game experience for them. We will:

1.Conduct update and server maintenance more actively and have closer communication with Warlords in the community. Make preparation for developing new players after the evaluation in steam get back to relatively reasonable range.
2.Make Optimization for new players with better catch-up mechanism.
3.Utilize more resources to conduct large-scale promotion in more regions. During the first round of promotion, we found that the language is the biggest problems, so we stop our promotion in some regions. In order to cover all SEA region, we have already started our Localization work in Japan and South Korea. We spent a lot of money and resources to co-operate with the best localization team to get more superior version. We also have been prepared for the localization of other languages.

We consider the SEA server as our most long-standing and promising platform. So we hope you can join us to build a better game ecology for it.

Q4：What is our follow-up plan?
A4: I guess this part is what you cares the most. We also hope to share our update plan with you.

Get rid of operation for three regions with different update progress
1.In the past three month, we have launched our old version in EU/NA region and Conqueror’s Blade: Frontier in SEA and CN region. Last week, we also successfully pushed forward the version updates in EU/NA region. Finally, we have launched the unified version in all regions. Before that, the update progress in three regions differed from each other, which seriously affected our development and release progress. This unification will make significant improvement.

2.The Roadmap with new contents for September is on the way. From now on, at the end of each month, we will share our new Roadmap for the next month in the community.

New Contents that we can share for now
1.Optimizations for new players---catch-up mechanism.

2.Season System.
As the most important system, it’s the foundation to enrich the whole game. We have already mentioned the season system in our developer's log. Our new season mechanism, differed from other common season system, will provide with best game experience with unique themes for all players, no matter you are newbie or veteran.

3.New Unit.
First we want to apologize for the different release period of some contents due to the requirement of our contract. The Monastic Unit and The Skirmishers Unit will be available in SEA server ASAP. Hope you will understand.

4.Attire System Upgrade
We will release new attire step by step. Varangian attire and Dragon shadow, Flying Fish attire will be available in SEA server soon.

5.Epic Mission activity system
This system has been prepared for a long time. This week, we will launch this activity both in SEA and CN region. The first story we choose is the Prefecture Guards fought against pirates in Ming Dynasty. This activity is just a beginning of this system.

6.New Community Channel
We will start to operate in different new community channels. Steam community is a great place for you to give feedbacks and have discussions, but obviously not enough for Warlords from all over the world. In order to have in-time response and more effective communication, this month we will start to expand more channels (both in English and Chinese) after negotiating with partners from different regions.

All in all, what we care the most is your love for Conqueror's Blade: Frontier and great faith in our team. We have been striving to produce good games. Please look forward to our Roadmap and new dev blog. We will try our best to bring a better Conqueror's Blade: Frontier to all Warlords.

Dear Warlords:
We have been continuously updating our new match-making mechanism during these days. Finally, we can present our new version to you today.
Our previous match-making mechanism was based on the level of warlords, which is complained a lot by some of you.

When Warlords reached lever 30, they experience obviously harder battles facing with higher-level opponents. After realizing that, we introduce battle ranking as its foundation to measure and express the battle capabilities of Warlords in a more dynamic way. Based on real battle performance, the “Battle-ranking” can show the changeable and real capability of warlords, then match more appropriate teammates and opponents for them. For example, a well-known veteran will gradually find that the opponents were all high-level Warlords during a fierce battle. Some other less-trained warlords can also enjoy equal battles without being crushed by high-level opponents.

We are fully prepared for the test towards our new match-making mechanism: we had a small-scale test from August 20 to August 22. Besides that, hundreds of thousands of Warlords have already experienced and tested our battle ranking system in the past 10 days. Eventually, this mechanism became more stable and reached our standards this week. So, our decision are as follows:

After accomplishing our routine update in this week, we will officially launch our new match-making mechanism with battle ranking as the standard.

Last but not least, we hope all Warlords to understand that the level difference in the battlefield may be larger than previous battles at the initial stage of our new match-making mechanism. That’s because the evaluation of the battle ranking of each Warlord will only be more stable after a period of data accumulation. As the data gradually accumulates, the battle ranking differences will be reduced, providing a better game experience for all Warlords. Please join us to improve our system with any suggestions and comments while testing our new match-making mechanism.

Dear warlords, glad to meet again:
First of all, we were "faced". In the last developer log, we promised to follow a weekly maintenance plan to ensure that the version is updated in an orderly manner, and help warlords to plan their game time. However, after only two days, we have to conduct server maintenance to solve serious problems.

Now our review begins:
The first problem is: after the last update, the Dual Blade was too IMBA: after using the "new version" of Combat Dismount, it has been enhanced a lot. However, we found that we neglected an important setting that all attack/skills could not break the stealth, so DB could kill other players quickly and safely. If this problem was not fixed in time, the battlefield balance will be destroyed, so we judged that this bug must be fixed immediately.

The second question is: We had to reduce the loot rate of silver coins and equipment in Practice Mode. The main reason is that during data analysis in this two days we found a problem. Because we have reduced the difficulty of Practice Mode, it caused that some players could compress the game duration to about 4 minutes (or even shorter) in an abnormal way. This is twice as fast as the design time (7-8 minutes). We have found that some people and studios used this vulnerability to earn large amounts of silver coins and resell materials and to take advantage of offline transactions. This affected the value of money, equipments and materials in the normal trading market. If not adjusted in time, it may directly harm the game ecology and economic system.

Although it is very stressful to announce the adjustment data, we finally decided to report the details of our adjustment truthfully: in the Practice Mode, the loot rate of the silver coin bag was reduced to 1/4, and 1/3 for equipment. The reason is that in the product design structure, Practice Mode is not the main production of equipment and silver coins. The previous addition of loot is to add some surprises, but because of the mistakes in numerical calculations, it has become a vulnerability of economy system.

So, we will be conducting server maintenance during the period of 6 am to 8 am, 31, Aug (UTC+8).

Our goal is to do our best to maintain the balance on the battlefield and to protect the gaming experience. If a similar situation arises in the future, we will still solve it as quickly as possible.

Dear Warlords, great thanks to your support toward the Conqueror’s Blade：Frontier. To create a realistic cold-steeled battlefield, huge efforts were devoted to maintaining the fairness in the Conqueror’s Blade：Frontier after the game came into official operation and any behavior that pollutes the game environment with illegal programs will not be spared.

For the past few days, we analyzed the runtime data of suspicious users based on player’s report, we decided to permanently ban the account of those who either use the illegal third-party cheating program or falsify the data in the game. The sixth patch name list of 5 players whose accounts are banned are listed as following :

越女阿青
鼠條
呵勒勒
Nemoll
申屠英冢

Recently, we also received some feedback that there were intensive illegal third-party cheating program in the early morning, which seriously affected the game balance and experience. In the next period of time, we will take measures against this behavior.

We’ll make every endeavor to purify the game environment. The reporting system has been officially launched. You can right click on the role name to report. We also need help from all the Warlords and if you find any suspicious in game behaviors you are welcome to report to us directly. We will also give certain rewards to players who report positively.
