Greetings Raiders,
This is GM Gremory.
We’d like to share with you the developer’s note for 2022
※ The screenshots in the Patch Note have been taken in the Test Server.
With 2021 coming to an end, we try to look ahead on what’s to come. After the many brilliant updates in 2021, we are now ready to share what 2022 will bring to King’s Raid.
We will focus more on content and player satisfaction than ever. So expect some very good deals in the Special Shop during 2022.
New Features
▌Rebuild Orvel
Rebuild Orvel in 2022! This will be the first major content addition to King’s Raid, prior to King’s Raid 2. You will rebuild Orvel alongside the Royal Architect Phelony and help the citizens of Orvel regain their former glory. Among other buildings, we will feature Veronica’s Bathhouse in a promo video in early January. You will see the design choices and the functionality of this building. Stay tuned!
▌New Heroes
The first new (NPC)-hero you can recruit is the 14-year-old architectural Prodigy of the Royal Court, Phelony. She will be a support unit for short battles.
Of course, we have slated a whopping amount of 3 more heroes during 2022. You will see some teasers really soon!
▌Hero Customisation
Hero Customization is getting an overhaul and will come back better than ever. No more frustration of not being able to change the hair appearance of your favourite heroes. Furthermore, a new summoning pool for decorative clothing for all of the heroes will be introduced. Be ready to see some never-seen-before customisation!
▌Energy Saver Mode and Dispatch
We understand that some events require a high uptime on game activity. To reduce the strain on your phones or other devices, we will implement the energy saver mode in King’s Raid.
Furthermore, we will expand the dispatch feature onto some content that saw daily use and according to our game analysts, was the most-run content. Dispatch will come to: Arena, Vault, Devourer Shakmeh and Target Dummy.
▌Character Mastery Dungeons
Character improvement will be deepened in 2022. We will merge the existing sub stories with our new mastery dungeons to give you historical insight as well as guidance on how to use your hero. Finally, you will have to overcome the hardest challenges in handcrafted dungeons relating to each hero. Here, your hero will master his own skills as well as their unique weapon.
▌League of Crowns
After a few years, we are quite proud to announce that the league of crowns development is coming along nicely. The update relating to this content will be released mid-September, and we are happy that League of Crowns will finally get a new image.
Improvements on existing features
▌Skip Ticket Expansion
With the success of skipping tickets, we will be expanding their use across a few key features. In February, Skip Tickets will be usable in the following content: Vault, Event Dungeons, Arena, World boss and Target Dummy.
▌Chest Opening
Further into 2022 we will deploy an easier way of opening chests from your inventory. Furthermore, the limit of maximum chest being opened from 1 type increases from 200 to 300.
▌Artifact Overhaul
The artifact system will get an overhaul. Before the summer break, we plan to introduce this new system.
Artifacts will be split into two categories: Passive and Active.
Passive artifacts are placed in your artifact shrine and are always active.
Active artifacts work like the present artifact system.
Furthermore, you won’t be able to get duplicate artifacts anymore. Once an artifact becomes 5 stars, it will removed from all of the pools and tickets. If you wish to have a duplicate, you can always create one at the maximum awakening you unlocked at your shrine.
Character Progression
▌Skill 5 Addition
With the release of the mastery stories for each hero, they will be able to unlock their second passive, by mastering the challenge dungeon of self-worth. These skills will breathe fresh air into the balance of all of the heroes. These effects will vary across the board, from simple stat improvements to very intricate passive bonuses.
▌Unique Weapon Customisation and Mastery
With the release of the mastery stories for each hero, they will be able to unlock their unique weapon mastery. Here, the heroes learn all of the necessary things, their unique weapon has to offer, and will further unlock a few new passives for their weapon and other interesting perks. Some notable perks are 100% crit chance, ATK up and increased Def Penetration effectivity.
The Hero specific perks will reflect the weapon even further, increasing their inherent effect and even adding more functionality.
▌Soul Weapon Ascension 3
And finally, the long awaited Soul Weapon Ascension 3 is right around the corner, slated for March 2022. In addition, Cain will open the trials up to difficulty level 17.
Other Improvements
▌Patch Frequency and Content
We will change up the frequency, starting the first week of 2022. Due to changes in our workforce, primarily due to home-office, we will cut down on the content with every patch roughly by half. To compensate this, we will double the time between patches accordingly.
▌User proposed improvements
Over the year 2022, we will gather every piece of good content updates and choose one among those to realize. The player who submitted this idea will become a CRaider.
That was everything for the Developer’s Note on what’s to come throughout 2022.
We wish you merry holidays and a good year 2022.
Hope you have a great time raiding in KING’s RAID!!
Thank you.
GM Gremory
