1. Rattan Armour

Liangyun is located in southwest, full of miasma and rattans. The ancients used special techniques to weave lightweight and durable rattan armour.
This armour is good at defending against melee weapons but vulnerable to fire attacks.
The rattan armour unit has existed for a long time since the Southgale Archon been established in Liangyun.

2. History

The magistrate of Southgale Archon was very temperamental, inflicting severe punishment to soldiers and taking pleasure in numerous wars. Fifteen years ago, the rattan armour unit leader broke the magistrate’s order of fighting against Farmount Cavern after consideration about the terrible residents’ livelihood and unit condition.
There were five parts in rattan armour unit: Rattan swordsmen, Repeater crossbowmen, Rattan pikemen, viper bowmen and mounted crossbow cavalry.
In order to pursue peace with the Farmount Cavern, the magistrate was forced to dissolve the rattan armour units, kill main unit leaders and send his son Yenbo as a hostage.

Five years later, Yenbo escaped from the Farmount Cavern. The magistrate temporarily rallied rattan armour unit with 5,000 soldiers to help his son get back home.
The rattan armour unit met Yenbo in Warrior plateau.
An escort unit were organized to send Yenbo home and others got ready to fight against 30,000 enemies.
Rattan swordsmen hold the shortsword & shield to defend at the frontline.
Repeater crossbowmen deployed their crossbow to keep enemies away.
Rattan pikemen and viper bowmen used poison lance and arrow to produce huge damage.
There were only 2,000 rattan armour soldiers left on the battlefield after several hours.
Then the mounted crossbow cavalry engaged in the battle and defeated a great number of enemies.
At last, remaining units burnt their rattan armours and died with all enemies.
The blaze was lasting for the whole night.

Finally Yenbo safely arrived. The escort unit and other soldiers once served in the rattan armour unit agreed to hide in deep mountains because they already fulfilled their loyalty to the magistrate but would never forget his betrayal.
Rattan armour unit has disappeared…

Ten years later, Liangyun Governor took hundreds of Yenbo’s family as hostage forcing the magistrate to conquer Maoyang. Given that desperate situation, the magistrate decided to ask rattan armour unit for help by sacrificing himself as a sincere apology.
In few months, rattan armour units with 100,000 soldiers got back to the battlefield, following Yenbo to conquer Zaifu and desert fortress in Maoyang, which called “Blazing Rattan Armour”

https://steamcommunity.com/ogg/835570/announcements/detail/1603769389822478933

1.As the Apology for Inappropriate Design of Battle Pass,the reward of BattlePass causing huge burden and pressure for many Warlords, which not in line with our initial intention. After full consideration to your feedbacks and suggestions, we decided to make relevant adjustments to lower down the level requirement of three legendary rewards:

-Legendary unit attire: Falcon Order---level 100 to level 65;
-Legendary mount attire: Bochasos---level 150 to level 80;
-Legendary hero attire: Righteous King ---level 200 to level 100.

Correspondingly,we adjust the reward of level 150 and level 200:
-The reward of level 150: 80 conquest tokens and 1 Treatise.
-The reward of level 200: 100 conquest tokens and 1 Treatise.

2.Bug fixes

Fixed a bug that abnormal count in the part of weekly challenges.

Dear warloads:
We received many feedbacks from Warlords since battle pass officially been launched yesterday. Our developer team spent a whole night to discuss and rethink our design. We should admit that we made a serious mistake on Battle Pass design.

At the beginning, the upper limit of nobility is level 50. Warlords could get core rewards including Stygian Order hero attire and Stygian Order set mount attire within level 50. The Righteous King hero attire and Bochasos mount attire were designed to be randomly droppable in the exchangeable seasonal attire chest.

After the initial design came out, we realized that no rewards after level 50 might result in a lack of incentive for Warlords to join battles. According to the background database, we added extra 150 levels and conquest tokens allowing Warlords to exchange extra Seasonal rewards.

At the last internal discussion before the update, we decided to offer legendary attires as lucky rewards for Warlords reaching the upper limit of nobility, motivating them to join more battles and activities. So we just distributed three legendary rewards from level 50 to level 200.

But it turned out this design was inappropriate causing huge burden and pressure for many Warlords, which not in line with our initial intention.

It's hard to face the reality but we didn't have other choices.

After full consideration to your feedbacks and suggestions, we decided to make relevant adjustments to lower down the level requirement of three legendary rewards:

Legendary unit attire: Falcon Order---level 100 to level 65
Legendary mount attire: Bochasos---level 150 to level 80
Legendary hero attire: Righteous King ---level 200 to level 100
Warlords reaching level 100 still can get extra conquest tokens to exchange other rewards in Seasonal store.

We will complete the routine update this Thursday and will not have any impact on your current rewards. At the same time, we are optimizing the weekly challenges of Season Eve. We're trying to make it before the second update in October.

Last but not least, our developer team have to apologize again for this inappropriate design and sincerely thank all Warlords for giving your feedbacks and suggestions.

Dear Warlords:

Finally Season Eve is officially launched today.

We witnessed the "grand opening" in the world of Conqueror's Blade : Frontier after the server maintenance is completed.

Some Warlords already got the Stygian order hero attire reward while others started to join siege battles to accomplish weekly challenges.
Besides that, some Warlords even made plans to quickly get battle pass rewards and upgrade nobility.

But Season Eve is just a warm up activity lasting for five weeks. As for Seasonal XP, we already prepared other activities far beyond battle match-making and weekly challenges.

Spoiler alert: the second stage of The Prefecture Guards Epic Mission will open in October. Join the activity and get Seasonal XP rewards!

Last but not least, we noticed that many Warlords have reported some weekly challenges is too difficult to accomplish. After full consideration to your feedbacks, our team already started to make relevant adjustments. Tanks for understanding.

Dear Warlords, do you know the origin of Season Eve?

Season Eve is the prelude for our new season system. Once the new season system launches, Warlords will usher in a brand new world of Conqueror's Blade : Frontier and experience new units and new levels. The Territory layout also will go through rounds of significant changes.

Kingdom has fallen, Who will be the next King?
Such a long and lonely night, Such a chaotic World.
Fury heart covered by heavy armour, fight till the end to conquer.

Since Conqueror's Blade : Frontier been officially launched on July 11, Warlords have created amazing legends:
21 fierce territory wars;
197 Houses rallied their units to fight for glory and honor in the past two months;
16 Forts, 66 towns and 168 villages witnessed numerous battles;
932 wonderful and memorable battles;
8,842 Warlords trained superior units and improved their skills to get ready for battles;
1,565,760 soldiers injured or sacrificed for the glory of the Kingdom.

Achievements earned in the old Kingdom deserve to be rewarded. At the end of Season Eve, your achievements also will be recorded in our season history.

1. Seasonal titles contest and rewards
At Seasonal Settlement, your previous achievements will be remembered in the following ways:
1). Outstanding Houses and its extraordinary history will be listed on the career and ranking interface. These records will be engraved in the history of Conqueror's Blade : Frontier and respected by all Warlords.
2). Warlords in superior Houses will get special seasonal titles, which will directly present preeminent seasonal achievements.

In this settlement, there are two titles symbolize the glory of the territory war:
[Fief Seignior] represents the highest honor for House
To become a Fief Seignior, Houses need to meet all of the following rules:
Rule A: The House was the ultimate owner of the fief during Season settlements
Rule B: During the season, it has continuously occupied the fief for more than two weeks.
Rule C: The fief has reached certain level requirements during Season settlements

[Fief Patricians] is the ultimate owner of the fief at the end of season ( in line with Rule A only).

Please noted: Now in our SEA battlefield , [Fief Seignior] and [Fief Patricians] title of one certain Fief is an exclusive rewards for one House. Maybe you have to fight for it in another way after we launch other server in SEA region.

When their House becoming Fief Seignior or Fief Patricians, House members who reaching the requirements for application time and contribution will get relevant titles and Fortune rewards.
It means that in the next season, regardless of the fief ownership, the House still have certain benefits for crafting and resources collecting in that fief.

Titles for House Members are as follows:

Titles for [Fief Seignior]:
Titles and rewards for [Fief Patricians]:
At seasonal settlement, if one House get [Fief Seignior] or [Fief Patricians] of serval different fiefs, the House member will get more luxurious titles accordingly.

( Maybe as luxurious as this: Daenerys Stormborn of House Targaryen, rightful heir to the Iron Throne, rightful Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Protector of the Seven Kingdoms, the Mother of Dragons, the Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, the Unburnt, the Breaker of Chains.)

2. Rewards for Territory War Points
The Territory War Points are specially customized for Warlords fighting and conquering in the open world.

Joining Territory Wars to attack or defend will get certain points (only for Warlords entering the battlefiedld, do not include Warlords in the status of queuing, preparing and supervising). Warlords can get extra points surviving until the battle wins.

At seasonal settlement, Warlords can get Bronze Coins, siege engines and even Treatises according to current points ranking.

Warlords still get five weeks to fight for these abundant rewards and set a spectacular start for the first season.

Season Eve will be officially launched on September 30. Please stay tuned for more information tonight.
