Lets fix it, swap procs with mythic bow!

Yep! I would love to swap HP to Mage and Mana to Rogue.....

If we're looking at a classic event system, I'd say it's more like you have some options (eg. gather crystals, kill goblins, defeat Ursoth x times, rescue imprisoned people, etc) and each of those are only made available per set time intervals and cycle around (eg. every two hours). The other option is that you can do all of the above any time you want but there are specific times where each of those gives higher rewards.

oh cool thanks

Just make it so that flags now refer to "team flags", and then have a second stat called "flags against" that counts when the other team scores. That way everyone will be encouraged to win the game and stop allowing free flags. Whatever total flags everyone currently has can be carried over to the new stat, and the "flags against" will start at 0. So those players with large numbers of flags who works hard for the will begin with an insane ratio, but because of the new system it will still be possible for others to catch up in total flags and maybe make the leaderboards one day. And best of all, teams will now play real CTF because everyone will want to keep their Team Flags/Flags Against ratio decent.

Make this a thread. Less wordy and bullet notes will rack huge support

Hi everyone,

The Legends Development Team is hard at work on a lot of great stuff, so without further ado, let’s get right to a nice list to talk about:

• Coming New Client Features
• Event System - Goblins and Trolls, oh my!
• New Gold Achievements and Vanity

Coming New Client Features

In the near future, we will have a new version of the App for you to install on your device. The last time we put out a new app version for Arcane Legends was back in November of 2013 that included the Crafting System. Here is a quick list of changes coming in this next client, version 1.1:

• Event System - System of having event based content in the game, first mentioned in this post: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...Arcane-Legends
• Skills can no longer be swapped or removed while that skill is on cooldown.
• Pets are no longer swappable while their activated ability effect is in use.
• Passive ability and pet multipliers are now reflected in the avatar page.
• Movement and skills should no longer be cancelled if you or your pet level up while they are active.
• The game options page now includes a checkbox for bringing up a confirmation window when purchasing with platinum.
• Numerous other minor bug fixes (we will have full patch notes when the new client goes live)

In terms of timing, this client should be out very soon, as we are waiting on Apple approval to release.


Event System - Goblins and Trolls, oh my!

We announced the coming Event System at http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...Arcane-Legends. Turning these Events on relies on the above New 1.1 Client, so once that is live, expect to see some exciting new content shortly thereafter!

The new Event System is a pretty big addition to the game. As such, we want to have a "test" event to make sure it is working correctly in the live environment with thousands and thousands of players playing it. To do this, we have a pretty short Event, the Goblin Invasion, that you can expect shortly after the 1.1 Client is out.

Goblins and then Ursoth the Troll to deal with!
Attachment 89418

After we evaluate how things went with the Goblin Invasion, we will swing into Ursoth's Assault. This event takes the heroes of Arlor to the forest realm known as Elondria where the mighty Troll, Ursoth, is waging a vicious assault on the Forest Kin who call Elondria home.

There are many exciting new items and details about these Events that we will be detailing over the coming days to whet your appetite to fight Goblins, Trolls and more nefarious creatures!

Earlier today, I noticed something strange displaying on one of our Designer's computer screens. Take a closer look at the coming Treant Boss from the Ursoth's Assault event (and his stomp attack) below:




New Gold Achievements and Vanity

For a while now, we have wanted to change up how the Gold Achievements are done. In their current incarnation, they provide incentive for players to trade very large sums of gold (10 to 100 Million) around to get the achievement. Unfortunately, such large sums of gold can bring out the worst in people as they might take off with it.

In a coming patch we will be removing the top three Gold Achievements (10 million, 50 million, 100 million). Characters with those achievements will retain the associated titles.

A new NPC will be introduced that will allow you to purchase different Gold related achievements. These new Gold Achievements will not have AP points associated with them.

500k - 0 AP - Title Granted: "Gold Digger"
1 million gold - 0 AP - Title Granted: "Made of Money"
10 million gold - 0 AP - Title Granted: "Solid Gold" - Gold Vanity Set

Here is an early look at the Gold Vanity Set that will go along with the highest package.

Attachment 89402

There are still some particle effects to be added to the set (and of course the Sorcerer and Rogue versions to be made).

As you can see from the above, we have a lot of great stuff cooking for Arcane Legends. We really appreciate you spending some of your leisure time with Spacetime. I look forward to reading your feedback as well as bringing you more details about the coming events.

Oh, there is one more thing...

Arcane Battlegrounds

Spacetime also released our latest game today, Arcane Battlegrounds. Set in the land of Arlor, this strategy game is based on the fantasy world of Arcane Legends. If you like strategy games, I invite you to be one of the first to check it out. Currently available on Android via Google Play. The iOS version will is coming soon.

For the gold achievements, I think there is no need for 3 achievements, especially since the first and second achievements will only grant titles that no one will use and doesn't grant vanities.

This is based on my assumption that:
1. Poor and mid people won't buy any of those achievements.
2. Rich people (10 - 100m gold) mostly will prefer to buy arcane eggs or mythic weapons rather than buying those achievements.
3. Super rich people (100m+ gold) that wants to be unique mostly will only buy the third (last) achievement.

So, I suggest to remove first and second achievements.

Make this a thread. Less wordy and bullet notes will rack huge support

Already did, and yes it got huge support, but no changes yet. I'd guess this is something that will be addressed in the future. STS has enough going on now with trying to get this new client out.

Edit: Ok, I changed some of the original ideas to be closer to what I posted here and I started a new thread:

[mahony]

so from where can you drop this 41 mythic weapons and armors ? from lockeds ?

[Serancha]

Nowhere yet. It will be announced, but most llikely Crates.

This ^^^^^^^


Is totally kickin'. Best looking boss evah. (PS he'd make a great pet too!)

[Onepiedead]

these mythic weapons will only drop from lockeds, right?

[Onepiedead]

[ShannKey]

Cool, awesome mythics. Ive been saving my plat and lockeds for 3 weeka now, hopefully wont have to wait much longer

[rockllee]

Nice nice

[Daniel Banuelos]

Question :will the new mythic weapons will be lootable from locked crates or from the bosses in the event?

[Daniel Banuelos]

Still waiting for new pvp modes and some guild improvements

[Excuses]

+one idea
Add little stat on 10m vanity like flower circlet. It will boost people to buy it.

If that were to happen, we will experience a redo of the dragon sets in Pocket Legends. Bad idea!

[Malcolm Ireland]

Wow sounds great, can't wait

[Sephiroth143]

We dont know yet, but I do not complain if the new gun is going to be better than the current top. I will be happy for this & i recently sold my kershal scrapter and cant wait the new weapon.

Every smurf loves guns, finally i could get rid of that stupid staff.

Edit: What i dont want to see, that they try to pre-balance things before release, lets give us first and then can express an opinion.

Same goes to me as well lol finally sold off my kershal back again, thought it was gd after they so called fix it but still not a wow impact to call it as an arcane.
Awaits for the new arrivals!

Ps Taking a break from elites to those who knew me^^ ill b up n runnin for more in event
