Dear Lords and Ladies,

We will have an update at around 3:00 AM (GMT) on July 3rd to fix a few bugs and make several improvements. The server maintenance will last for 3 hours or more. During the maintenance, you will be unable to enter game. We suggest all royal lords use a 4 Hrs or higher level Truce in advance. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

We will send compensation via mail after the maintenance.

Thank you for your understanding and support!

Here are the contents of this update:

1. Arena of Honor Improvements
- Improved the matchmaking system: High-power Lords will have more impact when calculating team rating, while lower-power Lords will no longer affect the score.
- Added display for both personal scores and team scores.
- Improved the match registration system: A new “register alone” option has been added. When selected, if team registration requirements are not met, team members can still register individually without leaving the team.
- If a Lord does not enter the battlefield within 5 minutes of the Battle Phase starting, they will be considered absent and unable to join later. The Lord will remain in Custody for the rest of the match.
- To promote fairness in Elimination Points, during a defensive battle, the rally leader on the defending side will receive 10% bonus Elimination Points from allied members. Other allied troops' elimination points remain unchanged.
- Adjusted building quantity and effects on the World Map:
a. Each faction now has 1 fewer Altar of the Crone and 3 fewer Altar of the Stranger.
b. Increased the stock points in Mine Shafts.
c. Increased continuous occupation points for the Dragonpit. Occupying the Dragonpit will also grant three random buffs.
- Added Custody feature:
a. Lords can manually enter Custody by tapping the button in the upper-left corner of the battlefield after the battle phase starts.
b. After 5 minutes in the battle phase, if the Lord’s castle has not been deployed, the system will deploy it automatically and activate Custody.
c. If the Lord disconnects for 5+ minutes during the battle, the system will automatically activate Custody mode.
d. Lords can heal wounded troops for other Custody-enabled Lords in the same family. Healing points are based on the healing Lord's own resource consumption.

2. War of the Kingdoms Improvements
- A new mode Lord of Light’s Protection has been added. In this month’s upcoming War of the Kingdoms, the previously scheduled Lord of Light’s Blessing will be replaced by the new mode.
In Lord of Light’s Protection, 80% of all dead troops will be revived the next day. However, Merit, Battle Token, and Bravery Token gains will each be reduced by 80%.
During the time, troops that die in this mode will not be sent to the Resurrection Altar.

3. All-Out War Improvements
- Adjusted battleground classification by adding A Battlefield tier. Now there are 1 Vanguard Battlefield, 10 A Battlefields, and the rest are B Battlefields.
- Battlefield Individual Elimination Ranking Rewards and Logistics Ranking Rewards have been replaced with Faction Individual Elimination Ranking Rewards and Faction Individual Logistics Ranking Rewards. Reward contents remain unchanged.
- Improved alliance scoring algorithm for more accurate representation of Alliance Total Score.
- The Alliance Total Score leaderboard will reflect the updated scoring algorithm.
- On the faction selection screen, added a maximum score cap per faction scores. The cap varies depending on the scores of alliances in each battleground.
- Alliance leaders which are faction leader can now remove other alliances from their faction's registered list.
- Registration and faction assignment in All-Out War can now only be performed by alliance leaders.

4. Day of Trade Improvements
- Increased Purchase Insurance limits: 2 for Common Goods, Mid Goods, and Premium Goods. 3 for Supreme Goods.
- The selected commander lineup and battle stats for the Trade Caravan will now be locked in during dispatch and will not be changed based on formation changes in other features.
- Improved rule descriptions and display of alliance eligibility for Trade Caravan gifting functions.

5. Daily Challenge Improvements
- The Daily Challenge and Normal Challenge have been combined and upgraded into a new version of the Daily Challenge, which offers greater rewards than the previous total combined.

- The original Elite Challenge is retained. Its unlock requirement has been adjusted to Castle Level 21. For more details, please check them in the game.
