It’s Friday Night: time for Spires! Help us test this fast-paced, 3v3 game mode while sharpening your Arkheron combat skills with each new match.
This week, Patch 0.20 brings some big changes for you to test out, including:
Spires Game Mode Updates: We’ve removed chests and built a dynamic economy for purchasing your items from the Shrine, which scales based on your purchasing history and progress within a single Spires run.
Spires in Custom Games: Play spires anytime, anywhere with the mode now available in customs!
Eternal Rotation: Grimwold and Vaton have been rotated out; Irenna and Leodin are back in the mix.
Also Balance changes, new mechanics and damage types, performance updates, and so much more!
Check out all the changes in the 0.20 Patch Notes here!
