Happy Friday, all! We’ve got a round of card balances and some quality-of-life improvements to discuss this week. Plus: a Farmer Maggot-centered decklist and a guide on Level 2 cards. Let’s take a look!
Patches and Fixes
Store Connection
Earlier this week, some users were experiencing issues attempting to connect to the Hero Pack and Campaign screens. We’ve fixed the issue. If you’re still experiencing problems, please contact us on Helpshift and we’ll have you sorted right away.
Longbeard Mapmaker
Old Longbeard has been causing a number of headaches for players attempting to use his powers. We’ve fixed the major issues (including one that would sometimes crash the game), but we’re still tracking problems related to this card. If you experience any weirdness related to the card, please let us know either through Helpshift or on the Community Forums.
A Watchful Peace
Yesterday, the Event card A Watchful Peace was bugged: It was working as and appeared as a Level 2 Spirit card, but it is intended as a Level 1 Spirit Card. Last night we implemented a hotfix to correct this issue.
Card Changes
We implemented a large batch of card changes this week, including adjustments to Heroes’ Threat Levels, Player Card Resource costs, and Sauron Card Resource costs. You can find a full list of the changes here.
During Early Access, we’ll continue to make adjustments to cards based on player feedback, available use data, and internal testing.
Curious to hear our thoughts behind the changes? Check out Thursday’s stream at twitch.tv/ffigames!
Level 2 Cards FAQ
Many users have asked about the Level system in The Lord of the Rings: Living Card Game. We've taken this feedback to heart, and before full release, we plan to make adjustments to expose the systems to players more transparently. Until then, we've put together this handy guide on Level 2 Cards in The Lord of the Rings: Living Card Game. Take a look!
Decklist of the Week
User Oceans4Ransom was inspired by the new Tactics Ally Farmer Maggot and built this powerful Ally-centric deck to take full advantage of the unique Hobbit card. Oceans was able to get all 3 of the Hounds in play at the same time! How? You’ll have to play the deck and find out…
