Dear Commanders
We plan to perform a patch update on the server at 11:00(UTC+8) on January 27. The estimated update time is 8 hours.

Details of the update are as follows:
I. New tanks
1. Type 83 SPA
2. AMX-10C
3. WZ-111 Heavy Tank
4. IL-2

II. Palm Diner Event
In order to conduct further study about the Farers, Portia has ordered Commander to gather equipment (S1, S2, S1A, N2-4 Blueprints) and collectibles (Bow Tie, Machine Snake Eye, Bedroom Key) to feed to Epsilon.
Epsilon will evaluate the food and Commander will be rewarded accordingly.
After each feeding, Epsilon’s satisfaction will increase based on the food’s taste (the more she likes the food, the more points gained).
When her satisfaction reaches its maximum, you will receive the first big reward of the event (this time it’s AMX-10C).
*Please note that if Epsilon is overfed (especially with high-rarity equipment), she might suffer indigestion, preventing you from feeding her further for a while (but you can give her a “Tanghulu” to help with that.)
During the event period, you can randomly get “Tanghulus” from Iron Blasting, and they can also be bought for gold directly from the event store.
If Epsilon is most satisfied with the food, you will also get “Luxury Avatar Coupons”, which can be used to exchange for various skins from the museum, and during the Palm Diner event, you can also randomly get “Luxury Avatar Coupons” from Iron Blasting.

III. Intelligence Deciphering Event
During the event, a special blasting pool will be available for the Intelligence Deciphering event.
The special blasting pool of Intelligence Deciphering has a higher chance to drop advanced equipment.
You have a chance to receive a “New Year Gift Box” from Intelligence Deciphering, which can be used in the Depot to redeem one of the following rewards:
1. WZ-111 Heavy Tank (Metal Maiden)
2. Blessbringer Koi Skin Box (Skin for Zik-20)
You can receive the “New Year Gift Box” ONLY ONCE, so please choose your reward wisely.
WZ-111 Heavy Tank and Blessbringer Koi Skin Box can also be bought with vouchers.
The Intelligence Deciphering blasting pool uses “Incomplete Intelligence”, which can be earned the following ways:
1. By feeding Epsilon in the Palm Diner event. If she is mildly satisfied or most satisfied, you will get 1 or 3 Incomplete Intelligence respectively.
2. By purchasing gold during the event:
20 from buying a Small Bag of Gold;
40 from buying a Big Bag of Gold;
80 from buying a Small Box of Gold;
160 from buying a Big Box of Gold.
3. A certain amount can be received from a quest after passing Story Vol.8 “Expedition”.
4. By exchanging with “G-SiSe” in the event store (for a limited number of times).

IV. New terrains in Clash
Desert Plains, River Hills, River Streets, and Rocky Forest will be added to the Clash terrain rotation.
(Please note that the addition of these terrains may cause a deviation from the usual terrain rotation, which will return to normal after a full terrain rotation cycle has passed.)

V. Seasonal time-limited sales
After each time-limited event (e.g. Palm Diner, Forge, etc. except Museum and limited packages) has ended, an entry to seasonal time-limited store will appear in the time-limited event tab.
Commanders can enter the store and buy seasonal time-limited packages.

VI. Special packages
A wide variety of packages to be browsed at your leisure. There’s always something for you.

VII. The double gold bonus for the first purchase has been reset.

VIII. New Avatar
1. Blessbringer Koi (U-19)
Obtainable by using “New Year Gift Box” in the Depot or buying with vouchers.

IX. Additional rewards from iron forge and aluminum forge
During the event period, using the iron forge will guarantee you “Prion Fossils” which can be exchanged for a random number of Wrecks, Secret Plans, Processors, Test Dolls or Codon in the Fossil Exchange section of the Exchange shop. Using the aluminum forge will also guarantee you a random amount of Rainbow Oxamide.

Hello, Warlords!

We will update the game during our maintenance on January 27th, which will last for 4 hours and run between 12:30-16:30 (UTC+8). After the maintenance we will give all players 12,000 Bronze Coins, 400 Honor, and 20 Unit Medals as compensation for any inconvenience caused. Be sure to arrange your time accordingly.
The update will contain the following:

The Year of the Ox is now behind us as we welcome the Year of the Tiger. The [Tiger's Vigor] event is now coming with tons of rewards: [Tiger General] Attire Chest, Treatises, and random daily packs including New Year Lucky Bags and Red Envelopes! With these handsome rewards and great events, we wish you a great new year and plenty of victories! Please check the [Tiger's Vigor] event notice for more info.


After the Tyrant's invasion, there are some strange folks wandering near the walls of Conqueror's City. They come from Yan, and they claim that the Yanhua gate in Jining city has been destroyed in war and must be repaired. But as was created a long, long time ago, they do not know what technique was used to create the bricks. Among their ranks are a general of Yan and a rich nobleman dressed in fancy clothes. Why don't you ask them why they have come?


We are making the following improvements to Fief Quests:

• Now, when you earn artillery and luxury goods from fief quests, these will be placed into your Wagon if there is enough space. Otherwise, the rewards will be temporarily stored in the city's resource pile.
  
• Added information to the Fief Quest menu that clearly elicits the bonus rewards and reward multipliers of quests.
  
  
  
  
• Improved the items required for some fief quests. Tradeable artillery can now be submitted to [Fief Construction IV] quests requiring epic artillery.
  
• Fixed an issue with the completion times and star levels of [Growing Tribute IV] quests requiring kits.
  
• Added a lock icon in the upper right corner of non-tradeable artillery to the Fief Quests - Submission menu.
  
  
  
  
• Improved the food bar display when marching on the World Map to increase clarity.
  
  
  
  
• Now, resources from all regions can be refined in Conqueror's City.
  
• Fixed an issue where fiefs belonging to Rosswild of the Borderlands would still belong to Kingdom of Rosswild after the Imperial Restorationists reclaimed them.

Added New Doctrines in the Carrion Bird's Banquet:
No Quarter: Reduced damage taken from cavalry by 30% while using Brace.
Advancing Bastion: Damage taken is reduced by 30% while charging.
Added New Doctrines in the Field of Broken Lances:
Rider's Folly: Deal 20% increased damage to cavalry units. Deal 20% reduced damage to ranged and melee infantry units.


We are adjusting the weekly win and rank rewards of [Ranked Battle] to award those Warlords who perform well.
Following this change, Warlords will be able to re-claim rewards based on their rank.
New rewards:




[Shield of the Capital] Territory War Map Improvements:
Improved the Territory War stages using the [Shield of the Capital] map. Added a respawn point closer to the front after the attacker occupies the center of the map. This means that the attackers' reinforcements can reach the battle quicker.

• Reduced the eagle-eye perspective's (Z) cooldown to 1 second.
  
• [Harbour City]: Slightly adjusted the location of the city's supply point, fixing the issue where units would get stuck outside the wall.
  
• Fixed an issue where the [Dual Blades] hero’s [Bandage] wouldn’t be interrupted by jumping after equipping the [Tiger's Fangs] rune.
  
• Fixed an issue where right-clicking with the bow wouldn't cancel the animation after shooting.
  
• Fixed an issue where the Rattan Pikemen's later nodes in the [Unit Tree] that boosted Weakened time wouldn't take effect.
  
  
  
  
  
• Fixed an issue where the [Houndsmen]'s [Sprint] skill would lose its effect if they interacted with a supply point.
  
• Fixed an issue where deploying artillery on a slope would enable you to pass walls by using said artillery.
  
• Fixed an issue where multiple duplicate messages would appear on the City list on the right side of the World Map when an allied city was declared war on by multiple houses.
  
• Fixed an issue with the information displayed regarding volume for the epic Hwacha Launcher.
  
• Fixed an issue where Narfan didn't have a display of which fiefs it could be processed in.
  
• Improved the quest text of the initial story quests.
  
• Corrected the Golden Rocks badge's quality from iron to silver.
  
• Corrected the quest description of the Houndsmen Season Challenges' second stage to attain Hat-Trick or A Deadly Century badges, instead of only the Hat-Trick badge.
  
• Fixed an issue where the [Iron Reapers]'s Prerequisites and Progress overlapped in the UI.
  
• Fixed an issue where the head part of the [Archons' Sons (Sealed)] clashed when worn by the 3 [Highlanders] season units.
  
• Improved the visuals of some menus and texts.

[Pike Hero]
After checking player feedback and analyzing data, the pike hero's [Wandering Dragon] invulnerability window exceeds our expectations. It currently performs too well and is too difficult to play against. So, we have decided to make the following changes:
[Wandering Dragon] Reduced the invulnerability window of all stages to 0.3 seconds (was 0.5 seconds).
[Sky Dragon]: Adjusted the damage of the second phase to 150% base blunt damage + 1,433 points of blunt damage (was 175% and 1,183 points).
[Sky Dragon]: Adjusted the damage of the third phase to 170% base blunt damage + 2,218 points of blunt damage (was 200% and +1,868 points).
We will continue to keep an eye on the performance of the various professions and continue to improve the game. We will also work on displaying CC immunity and similar effects with visual and other effects in future versions.

The Year of the Ox is now behind us as we welcome the Year of the Tiger. The [Tiger's Vigor] event is now coming with tons of rewards: 10 [Tiger General] Attire Chest, 20+ Treatises, and random daily packs including New Year Lucky Bags and Red Envelopes! With these handsome rewards and great events, we wish you a great new year and plenty of victories!

To further improve the state of Conqueror's Blade, we have been looking over recent data and feedback and will be making a series of balance changes to heroes and units with this week's update (Jan. 27).



[Statistics]

- Usage Rate: 21.5% (Most used hero, with Spear being the second at 11%)
The Pike is the most used profession and its statistics are overall high, especially its ability to survive and escape in chaotic battles, which is superior to other medium armor heroes. So, we're making changes to the [Wandering Dragon] skill to slightly reduce the Pike hero's extreme burst potential, and enable other weapons to stand against them.

- Changes:

[Wandering Dragon]
Reduced the invulnerability window of all stages to 0.3 seconds (was 0.5 seconds).
[Sky Dragon]
Adjusted the damage of the second phase to 150% base blunt damage + 1,433 points of blunt damage (was 175% and 1,183 points).
Adjusted the damage of the third phase to 170% base blunt damage + 2,218 points of blunt damage (was 200% and 1,868 points).



[Statistics]

- Usage Rate Rank: 40
- Win Rate Rank: 60
- Average Damage: 370.8k (rank 10)
The Imperial Spear Guards is a defensive 4-star tower-shield unit. But they cannot properly make use of their defensive ability in the current meta. So, we've decided to rework their design and boost some of their skills, giving them an increase in both defense and how they are used.

- Changes:

1. Shield hitbox’s width increased by 13% while in formation, reducing the chance of arrows to pass through their defense.
   
2. Replaced the [Advance] skill by [Shield Advance]: The Imperial Spear Guards gathers in formation and advances forward. They become immune to CC after finishing formation and will knock back enemies they hit with their advance.
   
3. Empowered [Cover Commander]. While using Cover Commander, they become immune to CC for 2 seconds and gain 30% increase to all types of damage and defense for every 3 hits they take.
   
4. [Front Defense] characteristic changed to [Front Barrier]: When in formation, they will raise their empowered shields once every 20 seconds, knocking back the next enemy that gets close.

[Statistics]

- Usage Rate Rank: Second to last of all units
The Spahks Cavalry is greatly underpowered, whether it be their burst potential, sustained damage, or ability to withstand damage. Their CC skills are not enough to ameliorate this weakness. So, we've decided to improve their CC ability based on their characteristics.

- Changes:

1. [Burst] changed to [Assault]: Grants an extra 15% movement speed. [Trample] can be used while [Assault] is active.
   [Trample]: Trample nearby enemies. Enemies that have been hit by [Assault] within the last 3 seconds are stunned for 4.5 seconds and take increased damage from Spahks Cavalry.
   
2. Using [Battle Stomp] grants CC immunity for 1 second, and increases all defenses by 20% for 3 seconds.

[Statistics]

- Usage Rate: 1.1% (Far beneath the 30% usage rate of Shenji Grenadiers)
The damage of all Arquebusiers infantry has increased following the previous changes to Arquebusiers units, but some Arquebusiers infantry are still unable to perform well in the current meta. Currently, the Shenji Grenadiers is the most used one. We believe that this is because Arquebusiers have too few skills, that the characteristics of those units aren't strong enough, and don't feel good to use. So, we're planning on increasing the ability of various firearm infantry based on their weapon characteristics to make battles more varied and interesting.
This time we are focusing on the Tercio Arquebusiers. We have decided to boost their ranged and melee active skills, thereby increasing their playability.

- Changes:

1. Added a new ranged skill [Bullet Barrage]: The Tercio Arquebusiers load extra bullets and fire at a faster rate. Bullet Barrage consumes plenty of ammo but has impressive firepower. Following the barrage, their barrels need to cool down and they will switch to melee stance.
2. Added a new melee skill [Brave Advance]: The Tercio Arquebusiers raise their blades and charge forward, striking twice in quick succession.
