Patch Notes – Jan 14, 2025

PLEASE NOTE: If you haven’t updated your game yet, get the latest in the App Store!

PATCH HIGHLIGHTS

Card Acquisition Changes

• Doubling the drop rate of Series 3 cards in Collector’s Reserves, from 2 out of every 9 to 4 out of every 9.
  • This will substantially reduce the time newer players need to acquire all S3 cards.
  • NOTE: You must update your game BEFORE opening Collector’s Reserves or else you will not receive the increased Series 3 rate.
• Increasing the Token payout from Spotlight Cache duplicates from 1000 Tokens to 2000 Tokens.
  • We know there are multiple issues with the Spotlight Cache system, but one of the biggest complaints is pulling a duplicate from the fourth slot with a hard-earned Spotlight Key.
  • NOTE: You must update your game BEFORE opening Spotlight Caches or else you will not receive the increased Tokens for a duplicate.

CARD UPDATES

None of these are functional changes. We’re updating the text of cards that trigger as the game begins for brevity using our new “Game Start:” ability you saw previewed in the last Arishem update.
