Topic: Castlot / [Activity] Clash of Warriors

Have you ever had the urge to smack someone down? Probably yes. Now instead of watching the cage fights from a distance and yelling your guts out in the audience, you can come to the Arena in Castlot and be a true fighter yourself! Check out the Weekly Arena Leaderboard competition, a playground for you to smash, roar, win and contemplate your life!

To better understand the new rules in Arena, let’s do a simple and straightforward comparison between the old rules and the new ones.

The Old Rules:
A. Players obtain scores when they win. If defeated, they will lose scores.
B. Players will get Prestige and a bounty of Gold every day if they can stay in the Top 400, even though they don’t even bother to do challenges any more.
C. There are 5 different Arena titles. Players of different titles cannot challenge one another.
D. Rewards are limited to a handful of Gold and Prestige, which doesn’t sound very inviting.

Need more incentives to get your motor running? We can totally relate! So here are the new rules:
A. Starting from the second Sunday after the launch of a server, player scores will be reset at 00:00 (server time) on Sundays. Only 1% of their accumulative scores of the previous week will be kept (decimals omitted) with which players will enter the next season of the competition.
B. Arena titles still exist, but they will only indicate different score ranges and not serve as restrictions, which means players of different titles CAN challenge one another!

Different score ranges:
a. Challenger: Scores ≤ 999
b. Rival: Scores between 1,000 and 4,999
c. Duelist: Scores between 5,000 and 19,999
d. Fighter: Scores between 20,000 and 49,999
e. Dragon Rider: Scores between 50,000 and 99,999.

C. During the Weekly Arena Leaderboard competition, players can challenge 10 players ranking before and after them every day, and earn three times as many scores as they could earn in the good old days.
D. Rewards will be delivered based on players’ Arena titles and rankings. However, players will not receive any rewards if the number of their active challenges (challenges they initiate regardless of the outcome) is less than 20 or their scores below 100.
E. Grand Rewards = Arena Title Rewards + Arena Ranking Rewards

You can also check out the champions and other top fighters of all previous seasons on the Leaderboard. Plus the Top 400 players can still receive a bounty of Gold every day as they used to.

Join the competition, get in the spirit! Look around, you can see a whole lot of Jewelry and Prestige waiting for you! Use the Jewelry to upgrade your heroes and the Prestige to upgrade your noble ranks! You can be the greatest! You can be the best! And the world’s gonna know your name!

Topic: Castlot / Introducing Equipment Imbuing

Dear player,

Another interesting function, Equipment Imbuing comes! As we all know, every piece of equipment has their own unknown attributes that are only revealed until you own it. These unknown attributes always come randomly like the numbers on a scratch-off lottery ticket. But why leave it all up to chance? Now, learn the knack of Equipment Imbuing and you can get the desired attributes for your gear!

1. Where is it?
Enter Smithy and you will find the Imbuing tab. Click on it to open the Equipment Imbuing panel.

2. Equipment List
Click to select a piece of equipment you would like to imbue from the Equipment List on the right. Please note that evolvable equipment obtained from events and white equipment cannot be imbued, and thus they will not show up on the Equipment List.

3. Imbuing
The equipment to be imbued will appear on the upper left slot. Below it there is a plain and live display of its current attributes and the imbued new attributes. The number inside a pair of white parentheses represents the maximum value a specific attribute can reach.

Look down a bit and you will find the available Imbuing options and their prices. Look down a bit more and you will see the buttons.

After clicking the Imbue button, the Maintain and Replace buttons will show up. If you click Maintain you will keep your current attributes. By clicking Replace, the newly imbued attributes will replace the current attributes. Keep your hand steady while you are in the process of clicking a button.

4. Available Imbuing options
There are four Imbuing options: Common Imbuing, Freshman, Veteran and Expert.

a. Common Imbuing
Allows you to get new random attributes of different types and values. If you are not content with the current random attributes of your equipment, you should definitely try common imbuing.

b.Freshman
Moderately improves your chances of getting Higher attribute values without changing the current attribute types.

c. Veteran
Greatly improves your chances of getting Higher attribute values without changing the current attribute types.

d. Expert
Greatly improves your chances of getting Perfect attribute values without changing the current attribute types.

Please note that your VIP level affects your available Imbuing options. Veteran and Expert will appear when your VIP level upgrades to a certain level.

Topic: Castlot / I wanna have a good time :P

oh, of course you can have it, we use it on clapalong first just want to make sure that the new interface runs well, once we’re sure about that, we’ll use it here. :)

Topic: Castlot / [News] Coming the New Interface!

Extra! Extra! Your city is undergoing a major facelift, or rather, a more profound transformation! Do you hear the rumbling sound coming from the ground beneath your feet? That’s because the ground is shifting. Thanks to that small naughty rodent’s obsessive chasing and stashing of acorns, now not only the place where the mammoths live, but also the old continent of Castlot will not be in one piece anymore.

Though we don’t have the means to investigate the new landscape of the entire globe after the continental drift, we manage to examine it from a local perspective using ancient wisdom. Take a seat before you look at the oil paintings we drew from a hot air balloon while flying over a city.

Benefits of the Change
If we compare the good old city interface to the delicate face of an oriental woman, then the new interface is more like the face of a Caucasian beauty with more prominent angles. There are many benefits of the change, some of which include:
a. Big, clear, improved gaming experience. Icons and buttons on the new city interface are enlarged compared with the old one. Words and numbers are more legible. It is generally a more user-friendly design.

b. More mysteries intriguing boundless imagination. You will find the Sundial, pillars, a strange rock used to be seen in Explore, a cave blocked by chains, and docks on the beach. Are they merely decorations or secret entrances to other dimensions? Time will tell.

c. Modern interface revealing better city planning. There are more eye pleasing features, for example, a river coming from the mountains and running all the way to the sea, bridges and staircases connecting different blocks, fountains and ponds, statues and well-planned greenery, and a blazing rolled-out red carpet, etc.

d. Zoooming function. You will be able to zoom in or zoom out the city interface base on size of computer or others. How to operate it? Simply roll your mouse wheel.

Some Collateral Changes
A few other changes you will find:
a. The layout of the icons representing the main and sub cities, dialogues, goals and Excalibur are changed slightly. There are little stars under the Patron Beast icon indicating its level. The tiny boomerang beside the server time is a clickable button. By clicking it, a menu will be revealed and you can check out the contents like protection countdown and remaining life potion amount.

b.The Scrolls panel has been redesigned too, as you can imagine. The Use and Synthesize buttons are now directly seated at the bottom right of the Scrolls panel. The rules of using scrolls and cards remain the same.

Have fun!

Topic: Castlot / [Activity] Rosy Road to Glory

Extended Ult Explore. Different from the current Ultimate Explore, the new extended version can be restarted!

Plus it’s not limited to just “another round”. You can actually do more! That basically means you are going to get unlimited rewards during this event.

Topic: Castlot / [News] Castlot Level 120 Coming Soon

Attention, soldiers! Castlot will be upgraded to the level 120 version this month. Things can be changed overnight. The rotational speed of the planet of stillness is finally picking up. Wars, challenges and competition will all be escalated to a whole new level! Want to secure another shot in the big leagues? You’ve got to be prepared for these!

I. Greater Titles
When you obtain the title of Grand Duke/Grand Duchess, your Senate can be upgraded up to level 110. With the title of Prince/Princess, your Senate can be upgraded up to level 120. The supreme royal honor is something that every high achiever is craving for.

II. Ultimate Red Cards
A new species, the Red Cards, will be added to the card family. They are truly the collector’s items representing super power and could be slightly hard to come by. You probably think you are cool because you have all the yellow cards. Well, your perspective needs to be changed now, because we have the more powerful red cards. So hold onto your hat, Dr. Jones, your card hunting journey has not finished yet!

II. Supreme Equipment
Being armed with a sword and a shield is universally accepted as a knight’s trademark. Steel and iron symbolize a knight’s will. Your heroes have transformed in the name of God. They now have the muscle to carry stronger weapons and armor. Get the newly minted level 110 and level 120 equipment for your heroes! They deserve newer and better outfits.

IV. Kingly Dragons
It’s the dragon trainers’ responsibility to bring out the potential of their dragons (Patron Beasts). Some of the trainers have made it. Many people have recently caught a glimpse of some handsomely terrifying giant reptiles roaring and flying in the wild. Fear them not. They are the newly bred dragons! You will soon grow fond of these powerful creatures.

V. Five-star Troops
As your Barracks gets upgraded up to level 120, all types of your troops can be upgraded to five-star troops. How amazing! Five-star troops with much further enhanced attributes will definitely be your opponent’s most dreaded nightmare! Take the chance to train top-level troops and make your enemies shudder with fear!

VI. Trial of Heroes
Higher-level NPCs will show up in the Arena waiting to be challenged. These battle-hardened warriors only respect those that master true fighting techniques. Don’t expect them to show you any sympathy or tolerate mediocrity. The only gentle thing they will give you is tough love. So do you have what it takes to defeat them?

More information will be released soon. Stay tuned!

Topic: Castlot / Bug Reports

@BossHogg88, is the problem existing?

Topic: Castlot / Official Announcements Thread

Update on 03/21 (16:00~16:30, Server Time, GMT+8)
New Functions
1. Add the Hero Transformation System. When Friendship reaches a certain value, heroes can transform. Each hero can be Glazed (the first transformation when Friendship reaches 100) and Moulded (the second transformation when Friendship reaches 200). Heroes will acquire new bonuses for duels and commanding troops after transformation. Check out the details HERE
2. Add new announcements in World chat every time things like the following happen:
Enhance equipment from a high level to a higher level;
Hero transforms;
Get high-quality equipment from the Alchemy chest;
Draw high-quality cards from the card decks;
Be the first to defeat an NPC in Explore;
Etc.

Improvement
3. When someone leaves a team occupied relic during the occupation, the Prestige yield for every one of the rest of the team will not change.

Topic: Castlot / [News] Debut of the Hero Transformation System

The world of Castlot is going to change. Like a new galaxy forming after the Big Bang, a Hero Transformation System is taking shape. New challenges and unknown adventures lie ahead. Are you mentally and physically prepared for a new era? Let’s find out.

I. Hero Transforms, Destiny Calls

Old Castlot dwellers know that there are 10 Epic Heroes in the game. Deep down you know the Epic heroes are important and must have their own potential, but on the surface they are not strikingly different from one another. With the arrival of the Hero Transformation System, each Epic hero’s hidden destiny is revealed. The real competition has just begun!

At the core of the Hero Transformation system is Friendship. Now Friendship can do a lot more than slightly increasing a hero’s four basic attributes. When Friendship reaches a certain value, a hero can be transformed. Each hero can transform when the value of his Friendship reaches 100 (Glaze) and 200 (Mould).

The Epic Hero interface of the Hero Hall is renovated accordingly. You can see clearly what bonuses will be added to your heroes after they transform. Each hero can be Glazed (the first transformation when Friendship reaches 100) and Moulded (the second transformation when Friendship reaches 200). Heroes can acquire new bonuses for duels and commanding troops after transformation. Their abilities increase exponentially!

Glazed Attributes

Moulded Attributes

Heroes acquire bonuses at different percentages after transformation. Some heroes may develop particular specialties. For example, Merlin becomes specially good at leading Archers and Mages after he’s Glazed, but he will weaken the attack power of Spearmen and Cavalries if he leads them. Let’s see what will happen to the Epic Heroes after their first transformation.

As for what transcendent bonuses the Epic Heroes can acquire after their second transformation, you will figure that out.

II. Avalon Chests, Heavenly Treasures

Well, Friendship wasn’t built in a day. In Castlot, the only way to increase Friendship is to award heroes Jewelry. To accommodate the increasing demand of Jewelry, Avalon chests are added allowing players to get not only Jewelry, but also Gold and Prestige any time.

You can click the little “+” button on the Epic Hero interface of Hero Hall, or click the Avalon Chest icon on the top right of the screen to open the Avalon Chest interface.

There are 12 chests. Looking at the images of the rewards displayed on the upper half of the Avalon Chest interface, you know what treasures the chests below can offer, but you don’t know which chest one of these treasures is hidden inside. Undoubtedly, opening the Avalon chests is an effective way to get Jewelry. Although opening the Avalon chests requires Diamonds and more Diamonds will be needed for the next time, you have one free chance of opening an Avalon chest every day.

When you have unlocked all 12 chests, you can click Refresh to get another group of chests.

III. Stunning Effect, Hero Hallmark

Transformation will not only show in a numerical way, but also on an aesthetic level. A transformed hero will be surrounded by a special aura when the hero shows up in a duel in Arena or on the battlefield, which showcases the hero’s superiority, gallantry, grace under pressure, and above all, dignity.

The GM voted by players will be a short-term GM for 2 weeks, during this period we’ll collect feedback from players and review the work of this GM, if he/her can fulfill his responsibility, then he/she will turn to be a long-term GM.

Time schedule for GM selecting (Server Time):
20:00 Mar.19 – 20:00 Mar. 25: handing your application to us
10:00 Mar.27 – 10: 00 Mar. 30: vote for the candidate on Forum
10:00 Mar. 31: announcement of the GM on S6

He/she would be the first and only one GM on S6, we’ll see how things going and see if we need a second one.

Salary for GM: 700 Magic Potion/2 weeks.

We welcome players on S6 to send us his/her application, as long as you reach Lv.50 and above.

Guys, I’m sorry that something wrong with the event setting on S6, and the event didn’t get started as noticed. I’ve reset it, and it’ll begin at 20:00 Mar.13 (Server Time). Again, so sorry for the inconvenience.
