| Content patch - what's coming in the upcoming patch? |
     |
Hello players,
The release date of the next content patch is slowly approaching. Here you can see what changes are coming.
Content patch
Due to the fact that we were in a hurry to make the patch ready for Christmas, it will be marked as Beta. If you have any comments about the balance, please share them with us here.
New stat – Resilience
With this new stat, you will be able to counter the omnipresent defence-ignoring effects. It will be given to the strongest armours, trousers, defensive affixes and, of course, monsters whose defence should be their biggest strength.
The stat will be mostly found on epics.
The last three opponents from the second expedition map
Zepar, Malphas, Hastur.
These will be the most powerful and difficult demons ever encountered in BW. Their mechanics are tuned in such a way that you will need the might of your whole clan combined with the most powerful server events to take them down and it will still be extremely difficult.
Their design is based on Chronos from the first map, who remained undefeated for a very long time.
Evolutions level 5
We are aware that many of you have completed your evolution trees. That is why we are introducing a new level of evolutions. It will also allow you to activate a FIFTH rune in talismans.
Armoury archives
A new tab in the armoury will allow you to see and manage all your items.
You will need premium to activate it.
The cost is 20 days of premium for 3 days of the service.
4 new events related to the effects of Talismans... or lack thereof
Some will activate all racial Talismans, others will activate non-racial ones. Some will even disable Talismans altogether!
Call of Blood
- racial talismans work without runes and are maxed out
Night of Power
- non-racial talisms work without runes and are maxed out
In the Dark
- racial talismans don't work
Water and Blood
- non-racial talismans don't work
Crafting Epics 1.0 and legendary items on Underworld
We are introducing the long awaited Epic items to Underworld. You will have to make them on your own – trading them will not be possible. It will also be possible to add the Legendary trait to items without it.
Cain's cube will have a new option - the Forge. It'll allow you to upgrade items:
Non-legendary to legendary
Legendary to epic
The upgrading will be automatic, no more randomisation like in Well of Souls. However, the price will also be quite steep.
The cost of reforging 2-handed weapons will be twice the cost of upgrading one-handed weapons to balance different character builds.
EPIC items cannot be traded (but you'll be able to downgrade them and sell then). They also cannot be put in the CA.
Full stats of epic items will be found here (after the patch is live): https://r1.bloodwars.net/test_items.php
So, when will this happen?
We hope to implement the patch on 20.12.2017, we're still working on it. We'd like to polish it as much as we can.

20 days of premium for 3 days of use ? Are you sure about this ? It's not 3 days of premium for 20 days of use ?
Could you explain what is so amazing about armoury archives that it justifies this pretty insane price please ?

Word is getting around that the patch will probably be tomorrow now.
Any chance we can get the updated items check early though so we can at least look at what Epic does?

The item test is connected to what is currently live, so unfortunately no.
As for the Armoury Archives - well, it's a quality of life option, and once you enable it, you can sift through items pretty quickly so 3 days should be all you need for some cleaning up 
The patch will MOST PROBABLY hit live today.

It's going to be a while before we see them anyway XD
Other evolutions of mine have changed level. Is this because their costs changed too? (Only one got mentioned in the patch notes)

Black set needs a mental bonus, it’s poor for such a hard set to make

We are currently experiencing some problems with the Armoury Archive (huge lags when using it). We're working on a solution. If we can't fix this fast, we'll simply extend the duration or refund the premium spent on it.

I’m experiencing a cardiac, 5k evos for epic is well over the top, either lower it or we need another way of gaining evo, maybe exchange for lgo, people stones or my god damn soul
Not not even going to mention the difference in stats requirements for items to epic and beyond
No stuff it I am going to go there
Item: Epic Demonic Katana of Suicide (+5)
Two-handed melee weapon
Damage: 374 - 488
Requirements: LEVEL: 297, STRENGTH: 306, INTELLIGENCE: 210, KNOWLEDGE: 217, AGILITY: 138, Your character must be in act: 3
Price: 3 867 200 Lgo ; Value: 1 933 600 Lgo ; Mana: 40720 ; Nanites: 15685
Epic Demonic Thunderfist of Suicide (+5)
One-handed melee weapon
Damage: 195 - 306
Requirements: LEVEL: 227, STRENGTH: 182, AGILITY: 224, INTELLIGENCE: 180, KNOWLEDGE: 201, Your character must be in act: 3
Epic Desert Eagle (+5)
One-handed gun
Damage: 90 - 108
Requirements: LEVEL: 81, STRENGTH: 86, AGILITY: 72, PERCEPTION: 88, INTELLIGENCE: 72, KNOWLEDGE: 68, Your character must be in act: 3
Price: 3 113 600 Lgo ; Value: 1 556 800 Lgo ; Mana: 2810 ; Nanites: 13300
Epic Throwing axe of the Dryad (+5)
Two-handed ranged weapon (light)
Requirements: LEVEL: 146, STRENGTH: 137, AGILITY: 158, PERCEPTION: 74, INTELLIGENCE: 109, KNOWLEDGE: 112, Your character must be in act:3
All end game items and the difference in being able to equip them is so unbalanced,as u can tell the last too can be worn easily Meele as usual have been shafted, I could live with the massive amount of evos needed but being able to wear them in 2025 mite be to much

i agree, evo collection is way too limited. We need to be able to collect more in other ways or exchange stuff for evos, like stones etc.

Posted on the main board asking if Treasure Points would ever be exchangeable for evo (also runes...).

Why do I have less blood points following this update than I did before? It's not by a large factor - maybe 3-5% - but I definitely can't use as many points of arcana as I could before the update. I don't anything that changed that should have had this effect.

Wow, didnt see this patch coming... what a nice surprise!!
Quick question about Resilience... when you say it counters ignore defence, does this mean that it directly reduces the opponents ignore defence or is there some other way the mechanic is applied?
I also agree that we need another means to gather evo points considering the massive cost for epics (and lvl 5 evos to boot).
Also 5k mergestone?? Come on... I doubt I've even had that many stones altogether (about 240k bs from exp gain so far) and I'll likely have to spend that much just to get some items to Leg p5 before I even worry about epic upgrades (so far I've only had 2 successful P5 upgrades).
Its nice to know there's something to work towards, but I'm not into 10year plans, especially in browser games. Not everyone has a big clan to support them... :/

Prices are really too expensive, i don't have time to wait 200 days until i will be able to have 1 epic item, and after another 6 to get all of them to epic, and after 5x this time to get them all to epic +5
this is almost 15 ears, just to upgrade what you have, and if you want to change tattoo, then it's easier to create your own server (a copy of the game) in 15 years you have sufficient time to learn programming 
)))

We aren't planning anything for now. We'll continue to evaluate so there might be some more options in the future.
EDIT:
Actually, there'll be a new source of evo in the near future. Stay tuned.

Exactly that, it directly reduced the opponent's ignore defence.

Any plans for re-balance of epic items? Especially 2HW?
Epic Demonic Chainsaw of Suicide (+0)
INTELLIGENCE: 162, KNOWLEDGE: 165
This is the item that is impossible to be equipped even on Epic LVL0 for anyone on this server without loosing 2 enchants (knw + int) + concentration ring or amulet to equip it on P+5...

Well, you need to KNOW how to use the weapon so that you don't hurt yourself 
On a more serious note - we have nothing to announce yet buy we continue to evaluate things. If anything happens, it'll be after New Year.

I'm pretty impressed you're answering during the holidays at all :p
Enjoy some time, but this IS poorly balanced. Melee users shouldnt need higher gun stats than gun users. While it's interesting up to a certain point to force us to diversify our stats instead of loading into a narrow set, it's pretty unfair as it stands.

I do work during holidays (if I have internet connection) buy I'm afraid Konrad and Sushi would rather take some time off the game. That's why if anything happens, it'll be after New Year.

You need to have an item at P5 to use Cains Forge. Your item(s) must be at this level to see them in the menu on that page.

How do you take something OUT of the Forge.
Stupid question maybe, but I HAVE stupidly gotten a Chain of Vengeance wedged in there...

theres no "obvious" button to remove the item from cains forge
but @ heraldo if you see the green arrow pointing down just above the item you can click that and select a new item

Did you forget about the requirements being reduced for leg items...
For high requirement items thats a pretty significant bonus.
