New Features & Balance Changes
New Features
Blossoms
We added a new Full Moon Recipe : Blossoms! One for each type of magical seed, these special items can raise the maximum amount of Seeds a hero can consume!
Each Blossom increases the cap of its related Seed by 5, and a Hero can consume 8 Blossoms of each kind, for a new cap of 40 additional seeds.

Balance Changes
Rebalanced Town Hall
The Town Hall always stood out as an odd building, capping at a lower level than other buildings (17) and thus being proportionally more expensive to upgrade, since its total cost was the same as other buildings.
We’ve increased the maximum level of the Town Hall up to 20, bringing its upgrade thresholds to the same level as Tier 1 buildings. Levels 18, 19, and 20 of this improved Town Hall will increase the maximum Renown Weekly level that guild can reach, allowing bigger guilds to earn more renown.
Due to the change in required investments, many guilds will see themselves one Town Hall level ahead alongside an extra member slot. Good luck filling it!
Other Balance Changes
- Improved the T9 Staff Transcendence which suffered with the introduction of T10. The second Ascension level now removes 2 Alloy Rings precraft, instead of one.
- Reduced the overall Fusion time for quality fusions.
- Mundra's Spirit effect will now apply to mini-bosses as well.
- Experience received from Fusion will now scale with the quality of the item fused.
Other Changes
- It is now possible to access the Basement menu by tapping the trapdoor next to the player’s shop.
- It is now possible to access the Fusion menu from the Crafting menu and vice versa.
- Caprices for item lines with the same resources type are now less likely to appear together.
- With the arrival of Moonstones in the crafting tab, we did a bit of maintenance. The Crafting tab now holds a Stones category, containing both Runestones and Moonstones.
- As part of the same change, Moonstones have been added to the list of possible caprices for the King’s Caprice Event.
- Added a tooltip for Mundra's Spirit effect in the item details menu.

- Fixed an issue where various Moonstones would appear in the third slot of the Fortune Zone.
- Fixed partial missing textures for the Dress & Apron customization.
- Fixed an issue with Santa's Helper Coiffe customization unequipping the player's facial hair.

Fusion Feature & Dragon Workers Update
Our final major update of the year is coming tomorrow! Get the details today with our release notes down below.
New Features
From distant lands come the dragons of legend! Armed with a wealth of knowledge, they are willing to share these exotic crafting methods to those that would befriend them.
The Sun Dragon
Sondra is the master of fusion. Though he does not craft any items by himself, he is able to fuse identical items together to obtain crafts of a higher quality!
Sondra is available for hire to all players of level 27 and up.
The Moon Dragon
Mundra knows next to nothing about fusion, but she is STRONG. Only she can craft the powerful Moonstones needed for all fusions, so you definitely want her on your side.
Alongside the Moonstones Blueprint Line, she also crafts a few unique and powerful items from various other item lines.
Her unique power imbues the player with the power of the Full Moon, permanently granting them access to the powerful Full Moon fusions.
Mundra Items
The various items crafted by Mundra bear a unique spirit, not found anywhere else in the game. Mundra’s Spirit grants enhanced attack and defense, but only against bosses. She really hates bosses.
Item Fusion
Once Sondra is hired, players can combine several item copies of the same quality together into the same item of a higher quality. This process takes time and moonstones, but does not require any resources.
Full Moon Fusion
Some powerful fusion only becomes available when the dragon siblings are empowered by the moon. During a Full Moon (in real life), these special fusions can be performed by everyone.
Whereas regular fusion only involves transforming items into higher quality versions, Full Moon Fusions involve more unique recipes, such as turning Research Scrolls into Ascension Shards, chests into components, and much more.
Mundra extends the power of the Full Moon to players who hire her, meaning they can craft these special recipes at all times.
Moonstones
Moonstones function very similarly to Runestones. They can only be crafted by Mundra and are used for all fusions. Like Runestones, they can also be found in various places, such as chests, quests, grab bags, the market and more.
Balance Changes
- Surcharging no longer rounds the resulting value.
- Increased quantity of Runestone rewards from chests.
- Slightly increased the power of the Dance of Blades skill
- Reduced the amount of items displayed on racks needed to reach maximum customer flow.
- Increased the drop rate of chests in all dungeons. Other drop categories are not affected.
- Heroes can no longer learn two different Mastery type skills (including Shield Mastery). Heroes that already know several such skills will remain unchanged, but further skill rerolls will obey this rule.
- “Gold” Mastery skills (Warlord, Marksman, Adept) can no longer exist together on the same Hero, but can be learned alongside a Bronze mastery skill (see above).
Minor Changes
- Clarified resource ascension milestones upgrades.
- Added a few new achievements related to fusion.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed the “Any Armor” caprice only counting Body Armor crafts.
- Fixed an instance where furniture could overlap each other after completing an upgrade.
- Fixed Piggy Bank notification not triggering after meeting required gold threshold.
- Fixed an issue where Guitar pack and Sombrero pack contained mismatched customizations (Guitar in Sombrero pack and Sombrero in Guitar pack).
- Fixed an issue allowing players to bypass Friendship Level requirement for rushing guildmate's furniture upgrade.
- Fixed an instance where users could soft-lock during the Basement tutorial if furniture was placed next to the counter.
- Fixed an issue allowing players to buy gear for their heroes at higher tier than intended for their level.
- Fixed an issue where another guild request could be made before time restriction had elapsed.
- Fixed Academy pants and Academy skirts having their names switched around.
- Fixed a rare occurrence where two instances of the same Caprices could exist at the same time during King's Caprice.
- Fixed issue where Racks stored in Basement displayed incorrect Energy values.
- Fixed an issue where help could be requested twice for Basement expansion upgrade.
- Fixed an issue where Rack navigation would cease to work after filling Rack from Market.
- Fixed an issue where the Dresser of Autumn didn’t have the correct size.
