Update 10.40.0 is here, bringing Artifact Quick Craft, improvements to Siege and Relics, a new type of Tournament related to Gear Ascension, rebalances to Chimera Clan Quests, and more! Check out everything that’s coming below.
Relic Improvements
We’re adding Relic Lore which can be found in the Relic Index. We’re also separating the Events Group into several themed groups for better understanding. First of these groups is the Alice’s Adventure Group, and there will be more Groups in the future when Relics are released as part of specific Events. We’re also implementing minor improvements in Relic Storage and Gemstone Storage, such as highlighting compatible Relic sockets when selecting a Gemstone.
Artifact Quick Craft and Autoselling Artifacts
We’ve added a new feature to the Forge called Artifact Quick Craft. It allows you to simultaneously craft multiple Artifacts of one specific Set. To use the Quick Craft feature, you must have at least 1 slot free in either your Artifact Storage or Inbox.
You can customize how you use Quick Craft by setting the desired number of Artifacts you'd like to craft, and manage other settings to automatically sell Artifacts you don’t want to keep.
Artifacts obtained via Quick Craft (including any that are automatically sold) are counted towards any related Events, Tournaments, Missions, CvC or other in-game activities.
Read more about Artifact Quick Craft in the Guide: Forge.
Siege - Draw condition improvement
We are constantly looking to improve Siege, and this time around, we’ve tackled the draw conditions. Now, if both Clans destroy each other’s Strongholds and also receive the same number of Victory Medals, then the Clan that protected the most Team slots in their own buildings will be declared the winner.
Gear Ascension Tournament
We’re also introducing a new type of Tournament, called Gear Ascension Tournament. You’ll need to get as many Oils and Extracts as you can to earn Points, and pick up some great rewards!
Chimera Clan Quest rebalance
Some of the Chimera Clan Quests we created turned out to be tougher than we thought. With that in mind, we’ve rebalanced some of them to make them a little easier - they’re still a challenge though!
Market Refresh button repositioning
We’ve repositioned the Refresh Now button in the Market to avoid accidentally tapping it when trying to exit the Market.
