2.80 Overview

The next major update for War Dragons is around the corner with 2.80! We'll be going live with this update next week, and the majority of updates focuses on squashing bugs and making UI improvements. 

NEW GIFTING FEATURE

  • Players can now gift Value Pack purchases to other players.
  • Limited to packs that do not have unique rewards (such as dragons or limited-quantity items).
  • You may opt to gift anonymously, or with recognition.

GAMEPLAY UPDATES

Improved messaging for War Tiebreakers
In the event that a war ends in a tie with less flames than 250-250 (ie. 240-240) victory will then be decided upon which team had the greater number of successful defenses. Otherwise, a “Tie” will result with only the lower-ranked team gaining rating.

Poison Damage Rebalance
Ballista towers and damage over time spells have been underutilized. After further review this is because they are less effective than many other options, and therefore we have made balance adjustment damage over time towers and spells.

GAMEPLAY BUG FIXES

  • Fixed a graphical issue with the Battlecry spell causing some dragons to burst into flames.
  • Fixed a graphical issue where the Evasion spell would fail to display when cast.
  • Fixed an issue in the Tutorial where players were unable to collect provided Egg Tokens if they failed to follow the tutorial steps.
  • Fixed an issue where players would be notified that their Bookmarks were full when in fact they were not.
  • Fixed an issue with Crystalline Shield where after multiple uses in the same attack the dragon would unintentionally take increased damage.
    • This change also fixes this issue for Snowdrop.
