There are a plethora of features being added, so let’s get right to it! To start things off, the login screen will be updated.  * * * Next, there will be a new permanent feature as part of the Alchemy Lab known as **the Synthesizer**. This will be the 4th tab in the Alchemy Lab along with the existing combine, fuse and enhance features. You can place 2 cards of the same rarity in the synthesizer to acquire one of the new sets of cards of the same rarity. There will be a list of four possible cards that you can get. You will also need an item called “Synthesize”. There is an epic version of this item which you can obtain to synthesize epic and lower-ranked cards. This is available to purchase from the tower shop for **20 tower coins.** For synthesizing legendary and godlike cards, you would need the legendary version of “Synthesize”. This can be purchased **from the shop for 1688 gold.**   There are currently six different combinations. The cards listed below along with the corresponding combinations are only the elite cards of the new set. **Please note that the Elite cards start from Epic onwards, the screenshots are to show the stats of the legendary version only. Also, you cannot enhance these cards (this is how it works on the Chinese servers too) but you can combine them.** **Human + Angel = Paragon**  **Elf + Angel = Aetherial**  **Ogre + Demon = Barbarian**  **Undead + Demon = Poltergeist**  **Beast + Dragon = Abomination**  **Goblin + Dragon = Hobgoblin**  There will also be an improvement to the existing stable feature. You can now construct your own stable in the Town Hall by using crystals to unlock this building. With the stable, you will be able to manufacture your very own saddles and you can upgrade your saddles as well.  This allows for more customization options. Check out the images below for a quick overview on how this works.   * * * **Back To Battle** The Back to Battle event will return! For this Christmas edition of the event, you will be able to get the new Christmas Girl Piary for logging in for a total of 16 days during the event.  If you recharge any amount for 7 days, you’ll be able to get the Sun God.  If you’re unfamiliar with this event, feel free to check out the guide that I posted [here](http://www.kongregate.com/forums/302-rise-of-mythos/topics/511831). * * * **Buy Points, Get Rewards Event Cards** Here are the event cards that will be available for the next two Buy Points, Get Rewards event. **Snow Angel**   **Envy** (part of the Seven Holy Virtues)   * * * **Christmas Login Event** Along with the Back to Battle login event, there will also be a separate Christmas login event that lasts for 24 days. Notable items that you can get include a Gender Change card, an epic Hobgoblin, a Fire Opal, Legendary Box II, Legendary Lunar Chest, 2x Legendary Gems and a godlike Milk rune along with plenty of gold and silver. * * * **Gold Rush** For this Christmas edition of the Gold Rush event, consuming 10k gold will award you with a legendary synthesizer, 30k gold will award you with a godlike Mystical Faerie and 50k gold for a Black Opal!  * * * **New Incarnate Cards** The world boss will be updated with a new set of striker cards that will be added to the Guide. Here’s the elite version of the new striker card.  * * * _That concludes the patch notes for the upcoming maintenance. Thanks for reading!_

Looks good, lucky i hoard all my stuff and should be able to max that stable pretty fast :) can we get some info on the bonusses of maxing it? edit: nvm just read +3% exp + 3% time reduce each lvl

Nice update, very excited for it but the daily log in sounds kinda crap compared to kal, nobody wants a gender card unless you can sell it for 100k silver :)

Two questions can you enhance epic fused cards? Also can you pay for the advanced synth with rubies? Also those Barbarians are going to be game warping.

seems not as good as K&L,… Thx for the info Trig

finaly :) and no 54 black opal frags in daily login?

If its 1000gold and 1mill silver it would be pretty sweet. But yeah also kinda bummed with he ‘’notable items’’ but atleast we got something.

Doubt it will be more silver than on KaL – probably the same amount or less. No fire ruby aswel? Shame no black opal fragments , was looking forward to them.. Anyway it still looks pretty cool – thanks trig for patch notes.

are we getting the new city defence as well? or it will be implement later on?

Pretty disappointing Login event, if epic Hobgoblin, a Fire Opal, and Godlike Milk rune are the hightlights….

Lol as I guessed log in will disappoint given the log in described is massively inferior to K&L and even last years here unless ofc trig left out some of the best stuff as a nice surprise but seems unlikely sadly. Might be just me but this just doesn’t seem in the xmas spirit of giving, the majority of events as usual are purchase gold events or spend gold and 2.0 will be nice sure, but as usual half of it is walled off behind a pay gate. Question for trig is the log in going to last for longer than 24 days? by that I mean the amount of time to claim it given that it’s after maintenance and there’s always maintenance issues which mean it’s likely a large amount of people won’t be able to claim first and possibly second days of log in.

Awesome thanks for the info.

can 7 day saddles be recycled?

One more question do the elites start at epic or leg?

> *Originally posted by **[Beakedbard](/forums/302/topics/575588?page=1#posts-9978583):*** > > One more question do the elites start at epic or leg? The new elites start from epic onwards. I only included pictures of the legendary elites as I felt that they would be most relevant. To address the concerns regarding the daily login event, I do understand that it is subpar, but having two login events run simultaneously is still pretty awesome.

Quality \> Quantity IMO 3 bar of milk chocolate can’t be compared with 1 bar of gold. And the [b]EPIC[/b] Hog in X-mas login reward there, is to show their real true nature! (Because rare version of it not exist?) Back to Battle this time disappointing as well, weaker version of Dragon King. The thing that made my heart beating fast from this update is: after-maintenance side effect GameFuse platform will receive as bonus.

Honestly you would be better off “copying” KaL’s 30 day login thats going on at the moment. they give many fire opals, 1 or 2 fire rubies, a free godlike card!!, atleast 4 mounts and saddles, about 500 gold total throughout event, and a godlike box. many other random things that would a huge help like the bags of awakened race frags that come by the 20x’s, dark champ potions (but dc is broken asf so no need for these here). what im trying to say is you could so alittle better. why would i want a godlike milk rune for??? there are better runes .. how about 4-5 fire opals, 1-2 fire rubies, and a free godlike card. then whatever else you want to fill in the remaining days.

well maybe its only me who think that rewards are not very much awesome,I still think that a black opal gonna be nice.

…

right now the only confirmed rewards that are actually good are the gobgoblin and a fire opal. we dont need a gender change card LOL change that out for a godlike card or fire ruby \_

…

Looking forward to changing my gender. =)

so guess the game will be broken tomorrow right and then the christmas log in event will be screwed….

Seems I’m feeling the same as everyone else. TBH don’t really care about the login now if those are the most noteable things, and please define “plenty” as I, like many, would need millions of silver to really do anything worthwhile. Best part, to me atleast, is the synthesizer with the new races and the free back to battle stuff. Not really interested in the recharge card there or the buy points, personally. Oh well, saves me some money i suppose. Merry Christmas RoM!

Nonetheless, this is a game changing update… lots of freebies. So much to take in and so many new cards… overwhelming, free to play have to love this. The ability to get game breaking cards for FREE. Sure the login may be near worthless, but that game has just evolved and I am sure the gaming experience will drastically change.
