• Tournaments: Basic free tournaments have been enabled.
  
• Rune Forge Shard Ratios Improvement: Rune Forge rates have been updated to be more player friendly, with improved shard values when sacrificing runes. Our goals were:
  
• Increased shard generation for all rarities (between 125% to 250% relative to previous values)
  IN/OUT ratios are now consistent between Core and Extended Set
  
• Decreased number of runes required to move up tiers
  
• It will now take 20 Rares to craft a Legendary, compared to the previous 30
  
• It will now take 4 Exotics to craft a Legendary, compared to the previous 7.5
  
• Increased yield when moving down tiers

• An all new challenging single player campaign is now available on the Marketplace. This campaign follows the PoxNora story where it left off, and while Menalaus is absent from the forest a Group called the Nefari Resurrection have come together to try and gain control of K'thir Forest. Also for the first time ever players who beat this campaign on Legendary difficulty will earn a FREE Limited Edition rune!
  
• Daily Skirmish: Added a new Daily Skirmish called "Old Things"
  
• All the runes with a
• at the end of their name have been removed. Every player that had these runes will have them replaced with the normal version with the same upgrades selected and at the same level.
  
• Champion Costing Update:
  The costing formula for runes has been adjusted slightly. Cost for DEF, particularly for higher HP units, has been reduced, while costs for base HP has been increased. For the majority of champions, this results in little to no change. Units whose costs are largely in HP will see their cost go up, while units that were previously paying significant nora for DEF may see some cost decrease. Overall, costs will have increased by an average of around 2 nora, with the brunt of the increases being borne by the champions on the lower end of the cost spectrum, which should go some ways towards correctly some of the efficiency issues with those champions.
