Take your Runes to the Next Level!

Greetings, Dragon Lords!

We’re approaching the final month of the Summerkai Season, and we’ve yet to discuss the Limited-Time Branches that were hinted at in the beginning of June. This week, a new Summerkai branch will be introduced in the Season, giving players an opportunity to obtain a whole new type of Rune - Exotic Runes!

With the debut of Exotic Runes in this limited-time branch, your base’s power will reach all new heights. Let’s take a look at all available prizes coming in the branch and the new Exotic Runes.

Please Note: How the new branch appears in game may vary from this screenshot. This is only meant to provide a visual reference to the new branch in-game.

Summerkai Limited Time Branch

The Limited Time Branch features three types of rewards: a ton of Rune Dust, Elemental Embers, and a choice between two Exotic Runes. It will cost 5,000 Summerkai Sigils in total to complete the line. The branch will only be available from July 31st to August 5th, throughout the duration of the Kingdom Wars event. After this time, the branch will disappear, and prizes can no longer be claimed within it.

An example of how the Exotic Runes will look in the Seasonal branch. Please Note that the date this prize is available until is placeholder.

The line itself will consist of 7 prizes - the first 3 will be prizes of Rune Dust, and will equal up to 50% the amount needed to fully enhance an Exotic Rune. The next 3 prizes will feature Elemental Embers to help upgrade any of your Flak towers. The final prize will allow players to choose between a Dark Flak Attack or Dark Flak HP Exotic Rune, which has varying enhancement potential for the first and second traits.

Here’s a breakdown of each prize that can be found in this branch:

All-New Exotic Runes

A new tier of Runes will be introduced as the featured prize in this week’s new Season branch. Exotic Runes will provide an overall higher enhancement percentage for both primary and secondary traits, making your base more powerful than ever. For the first introduction of Exotic Runes, players will have a choice between a Dark Flak Attack or Dark Flak HP rune, found at the end of the branch’s line.

Take a look at the enhancement abilities of Exotic Runes and their Rune Dust cost. Please note that “Primary” refers to the first trait of a Rune, and “Secondary” refers to the second trait of a Rune.
