This update is slated for release on April 15th.

40 new blueprints are now available! There’s more every year, isn’t there!?

For this new batch of blueprints, we have to take a step back in time. A pretty big step back in fact, considering we’re time traveling back several million years. Pack a big lunch, because routine trips to the Ancient Jungle quest will be required to craft wonderful new items such as the Behemoth armor set, the Blossomblade or the mythical Dino Nuggies.

The untamed Ancient Jungle is the realm of dinosaurs! One would be a fool to go wandering these hunting grounds willingly. We really need those components, though.

The Ancient Jungle quest can be unlocked starting at Merchant Level 66, costing 15 billion gold.

Just plain old components won’t be enough for this tier however. Read below on the new Timewarped Components.

It seems that the return trip back to the present may have a beneficial effect on some old components!

Unique to the Ancient Jungle quest, a new option to Timewarp components will be available. Whenever you start a quest, you’ll have the option to bring in a stack of compatible components. If your quest succeeds, these components will be upgraded into a new form, which is needed to craft many Tier 15 items. If the quest fails however, you’ll lose them, so be careful!

A new special node has been added to Advanced Research. For each item type, if you’ve unlocked a Tier 15 blueprint and unlocked at least one node for that type, a new research node will be made available. Unlocking it will apply all previously unlocked Advanced Research nodes of that item type to Tier 15 as well.

For example, a player who has unlocked all Advanced Research for Swords can have the Craft Speed, Surcharge Energy Reduction and XP Bonus also apply to Tier 15 swords with this upgrade.

The level cap for workers has been increased to 50, provided you have the building level for it. Levels past 45 will have a different effect; the craft time reduction is more pronounced, but only applies to items of Tier 15 or higher.

As part of this change, the experience requirement for the workers levels has been reduced. You’re welcome!

While veteran players are busy time-traveling and crafting chunky Tier 15 items, we’ve also prepared a special Login Calendar for newer players to enjoy. It contains a plethora of Prehistoric rewards to claim over 15 days!

Though it is aimed towards newer players, there’s no restriction as to who can participate.

The Trip Through Time Login Calendar will start on April 17th and run until May 5th.

The Emerald Inn and the Tavern now have new levels to accommodate the new dungeon. The buildings of city workers now also have three new levels to support their max level of 50.

• It is now possible to fully ascend an item by long-tapping the ascension button. You’ll get a warning first.
  
• The item details menu will now display the multiple item types a Dual Wield item is classified as, the Quiver bonus an item has, and the affinity an item has.

• The maximum rank of Champions has been increased to 11+60.
  
• Polonia’s cap on the tier of equipment stolen has been increased by 1.
  
• Sigils, both True and regular, are rather old news at this point. Their fusion recipe has been simplified to help players get past Tier 11-12. They now require 10 of an appropriate quest component in exchange for 3 Sigils.
  
• Elysium-related Fusions (e.g. chest and components) now require Supreme Moonstones.
  
• Most city buildings have had their investment tick requirements lowered. You’ll need more ticks overall to reach the newly added building levels though!
  
• The amount of crafts required to master mid-tier blueprints has been reduced slightly.
  
• Slightly rebalanced minimum Hero level required to equip item tiers. Tier 15 can be equipped starting at Hero level 38.
  
• Rebalanced Merchant level required to unlock tiers on the market. Tier 15 can be traded on the market starting at level 65.
  
• The Elysium dungeon is now cheaper to unlock.
  

• The navigation has been visually updated to better display content within that tab at a glance and support a theoretical infinite number of tabs.
  
• Some improvements have also been made to scrolling through the navigation on mobile; when scrolling you will now “snap” onto the nearest button.

The King will return as a Guest Champion starting on April 28th until May 1st.

The Cinco de Mayo collection will return starting on May 2nd and running until May 7th.

You have long toiled away at the Collection Book, filling its pages with legendary items. But have you ever wondered what the collection book could do for you in return?

Starting in this update, it will now be possible to purchase antique blueprints from within the collection book! Standard conditions apply; the item must be an antique, and in some cases, your account must be old enough to claim the item. One new condition however is that you must master a blueprint of the same line that is one tier above (or higher). For example, mastering a Tier 14 Wand will make all antique Wands of Tier 13 and below available to unlock using Antique Tokens at their standard cost. Until a new tier releases, Tier 14 items remain exclusive to offers and the Antique Store.

As a small bonus, the Antique Store now features a 15% discount on blueprints.

This special fountain is a new offer you don’t want to miss. For the cost of $4.99 (USD), you’ll receive 550 gems instantly alongside the Gem Fountain decoration. The Gem Fountain will then generate 50 gems daily for 30 days! You’ll need to login daily though, otherwise that day’s gems will be lost.

Once the duration runs out, the Gem Fountain will go dormant until the offer is purchased again, granting all of its bonuses (including the initial gems) once more.

Superior Packs just got a bit superior-er! They now follow a format similar to Mega Packs, offering a bundle of new content in each half, or the complete package at a discount. Superior Packs now also contain two blueprints (with one typically belonging to a Premium line) and a few customizations or decorations.

By popular demand, it is now possible to refund Talent points individually. Each point now costs 50 gems to refund. The cost of refunding an entire tree still caps out at 500 gems, so it may be a beneficial option for major changes to your playstyle. Nothing beats a Refund Token, of course.

• When using the Coincidental Preparations (chance to instantly complete a quest) talent alongside a Compass-type booster, the booster will be refunded if the quest autocompletes.
  
• Many players learn very late about the existence of the Guild’s Choice mechanic for city buildings. We’ve made it a bit more eye-catching.
  
• The store button is now displayed on the main HUD.

• Significantly increased the Merchant XP value of Dual Wield blueprints.
  
• Blueprints found in the Antique Store now have a 15% discount.
  
• The Vending Machine Surcharge chance now caps out at 20%.
  
• The Vending Machine’s unique stats (Surcharge chance and sale frequency) now cap out as early as level 16, so you won’t need to spend many Dragonmarks to get the most of it.
  
• The Vending Machine’s Max Energy bonus is now double that of a regular rack.

In the longer term, we’ll be looking at more substantial changes to the Vending Machine to improve its usefulness and fun factor.

Just in time for the Collection Book upgrade, you can now purchase Antique Tokens directly from the webstore! Six different bundles are available.

The King will return as a Guest Champion starting on March 31st until April 3rd.

• Fixed a rare issue preventing some players from asking for help upgrading their furniture.
  
• Fixed some issues with quests sorting strangely when sorted by component quantity.
  
• Fixed the Squirrel Spirit model using the wrong Runestone.
  
• Clarified the Vending Machine’s time per sale upgrade.
  
• Fixed issues with Grab Bags not awarding appropriate rewards for their color.
  
• Fixed Moonstone bounties occasionally appearing as non-premium bounties.
  
• Fixed an issue where using the “None” filter would prevent the Apply button from working properly in Advanced Search.

Fixed Market information (quantity, sale price, etc.) for items in inventory not populating when below the level requirements for that item tier.
