Friendly Siege Battles
[p]You can now test out your Siege Defense teams against your clanmates before a Siege takes place. Once a Defense Team has been placed, any Clan member can challenge it by selecting the new “Test The Defense” button. There are no restrictions on the number of Defenses you can test, meaning you can test any Building right away rather than taking them on sequentially as an attacker would.[/p][p]Any Bonuses, Traps, or Conditions set on a Defense Team will apply during these friendly battles, but they will not be used up - they’ll remain in place for when the Battle Phase of the next Siege begins. You cannot test your own Defense Teams. No rewards are granted for winning these battles. A battle report will be generated, but only one report will be stored at a time, with newer tests overwriting older ones.[/p][p][/p]Tag Team Arena Quick Battles
[p]We’ve implemented Quick Battles in Tag Team Arena, allowing you to complete battles on Auto almost instantly and saving your time for other game modes.[/p][p][/p]Tag Team Arena Battle Counter
[p]We’ve also introduced a minor UI change in Tag Team Arena to display the number of weekly Offense Battles you need to fight in order to remain your current Tier after the Ranking Period ends. You can find the counter in both the Battle and Tiers tabs.[/p][p][/p]Affinity Information Update
[p]We’ve added information about the advantages and disadvantages of Affinity matchups in the pre-battle window.[/p][p][/p]New Gemstone Filter
[p]To help you sort through Gemstones more easily, we’ve introduced the ability for you to filter them by whether they’re socketed or not, as well as their Rarity or shape. Socketed Gemstones will also now have a Champion Avatar on them to show which Champion has them equipped.[/p][p][/p]Fusion Champions Filter
[p]We’ve also added a new filter to the Tavern & Champion Collection windows, which lets you either hide, or only view, Champions that are being used in an ongoing Fusion Event.[/p][p][/p]Iron Twins & Soul Merchant Updates
[p]We’re introducing Super Raids to the Iron Twins’ Fortress, meaning you can earn double the rewards from a single Dungeon run. We’re also updating the selection of Souls that the Soul Merchant has for purchase. It will now automatically refresh 4 times a day, rather than 2 times, and there are now 6 slots with Souls for Legendary Champions, rather than 4 slots.[/p][p][/p]Leaderboards Red Dot
[p]The red dot on the Leaderboards icon in the sidebar menu of the Bastion will still be displayed after each reset, but it will only appear for players who were previously in the Top 100 Leaderboard.[/p][p][/p]Relics UI/UX Improvements
[p]We’ve added Champion Avatars on each Relic in the Relic Upgrade window, to show which Champions have which Relic equipped. We’ve also added an option to hide equipped Relics in the Relic Upgrade window.[/p][p][/p]Reworked Gear
[p]We’ve added an informative icon to reworked Gear to help you identify which pieces of Gear have already been reworked.[/p][p][/p]Champion Rebalance
