Game Fixes

Trial Fixes

• [Conquest Trial] During Makari-Hari’s Ability, rapidly clicking to distribute Energy could result in Energy being lost.
  
• During Caelius’ Ability, rapidly clicking to distribute Energy could result in Energy being lost.
  
• During Varius’ Ability, rapidly clicking to distribute Energy could result in Energy being lost.
  
• During Drusus's Ability, if you finish the first trial with precise timing, you can cause the timer to reach 0 just as the second Trial begins, skipping it.
  
• Picking a player during Herlcaus' Ability just as the timer reaches 0 can result in Energy being deducted twice in some cases.
  
• If you click too fast when selecting an Identity Card at the beginning of the Trial you could flip the card before it’s ready, stopping you from selecting an Identity Card before the timer runs out.
  
• When un-summoning a Hero manually by flipping them when you already have 7 Heroes on your side, that Hero may end up in a state where you can no longer summon them when you should be able to.
  
• When manually flipping Heroes, passive abilities could sometimes fail to activate for the other player.
  

Server Fixes

• Improved the efficiency of gameplay and statistics tracking used for player Titles which had begun to impact the overall performance and stability of the server, resulting in unexpected timeouts and player disconnections.

Trial Fixes

• [System] The way Cards are drawn and discarded has been consolidated and revised to be more reliable, improving the stability of any action or Hero Ability related to Cards.
  
• [System] Players are no longer able to receive more than the maximum of 20 Cards in their hand.
  
• [System] Card element trackers on the player icons have had several desync issues resolved and show now be accurate in displaying what elements that player currently has in their hand.
  
• [System] Hitting End Turn at 0 seconds left in the timer during the Trial Stage or the Hero Stage had the chance that both the end-turn button and the timer would try to send data to the server at the same time. This would result in the game proceeding incorrectly.
  
• [System] Under circumstances where the game becomes desynchronised between players, each player could decide a different side goes first in the Hero Stage. This is no longer possible even under similar circumstances.
  
• [Hero] Gaining a Spell Card using Sulpicius’ Passive Ability did not trigger Aristotle’s Passive Ability.
  
• [Hero] Gaining a Spell Card during Zermes’ Ability while Aristotle’s Passive Ability is active can no longer result in errors.
  
• [Hero] Under some circumstances, Zermes would appear to make incorrect comparisons between Cards.
  
• [Hero] Sulpicius, Gaios, and Mukaki’s Passive Abilities would remain partially active after being un-summoned by Nikos leading to incorrect behaviour or soft-locks.
  
• [Hero] Gaios would break when his Passive Ability is activated after the second turn in the Hero Stage, resulting in cards not being discarded properly if you chose to do so.
  
• [Hero] Under some circumstances Gaios could ask you to convert Cards to Energy twice in a row if no Heroes are activated during a given turn. Gaios will now only ask a second time if Heroes are activated during the Hero Stage.
  
• [Hero] You can no longer submit more Energy than you have to the wager during Alkaios’ Hero Ability.
  
• [Takeover Hero] The text “Flipping Sides” could be displayed instead of “Gaining/Losing Influence” during the activation of Drusus’ Ability.
  
• [Conquest Hero] The card distribution screen after Aklaios’ Ability could fail to load and soft-lock the Trial.
  
• [Conquest Hero] If Drusus and another Hero were activated in the same turn on Mukaki's side, there was a chance that no players would remain on Mukaki's side at the end of Drusus' Ability. In this case the next Hero would incorrectly activate their Ability and soft-lock the match.
  
• [Conquest Hero] If Mukaki’s Hero Ability was used in the first turn it would prevent the next Hero activated by Makari-Hari’s side from flipping a Seal.
  
• [Conquest Trial] With precise timing you could submit a card in a 0.5 second period after the Trial Stage had completed, failing the Trial Stage, but also receiving 1 Energy for passing the Trial Stage afterwards
  
• [Conquest Trial] Varius would only let you select yourself rather than all the players on your side when distributing Energy as the Consul.
  
• [Traditional & Simplified Chinese] Timaio’s Ability description in Takeover Trials did not properly reflect his Ability.

• Opening the Hero Summon menu then scrolling to the end of the list would lock the right/left button when you close and re-open the list.
  
• When you first login, your Reward Points would appear to not be affected by the daily reset.
  
• Saving your deck in the Deck Customisation menu and swapping decks would make it appear as though your other decks were not saved. As this was only a display issue, all decks are saved correctly on the server.
  
• Fixed an issue where level-up reward Monera could be displayed as a separate item on the Victory screen if you had already reached your daily Monera cap.
  
• Equipped Hero Skins are now displayed when the Winning Hero appears on the Victory screen.
  

Lobby Fixes

• When the Room Owner leaves a hosted room, the new Room Owner will now correctly be transferred the room controls and be able to invite players or start the game.

Rewards Changes
