... It has to be the third most powerful event building in the game. Oodles of Froggies, worker orcs and such excellent culture that it typically falls around my fourth best item.

Yeah when it came out I went in and was able to get two of them and love them both.

Hello Beta-Players,

I've just heard that the next round of fellowship adventure will start on On Thursday, March 7th on Beta-Server.

The announcement seems to have generated confusion as to the prizes at the end of each stage. It seems odd not having artifacts for the last two events, but there may be another feature introduced to handle that.

Hi everyone!

Today, the beta version will unveil a significant reduction in Spell Fragment costs for Ancient Wonders, with this enhancement scheduled to roll out to all other worlds in the upcoming release cycles.

Why the Change?
Following recent adjustments to Ancient Wonders, we observed a noticeable gap between the required and obtained Spell Fragments. While we had plans to address this gap through improved Event and Spire rewards, we've decided not to keep you waiting and are making this enhancement right away. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're committed to ensuring a more balanced and enjoyable gameplay experience!

What's Changing Exactly?
The old Spell Fragments costs formula, a simple "Ancient Wonder level" x1000, is getting a makeover! The new and improved formula is more intricate, allowing you to evolve your Ancient Wonder further with significantly fewer Spell Fragments. Let's dive into the specifics:

Before/After Comparisons:
To upgrade an AW to level 16 (equivalent to 75% power of level 35), the costs are down by over 60%!
To upgrade an AW to level 28 (90% as powerful as level 35), the costs are down by roughly 50%!
To upgrade an AW to level 35, the costs are down by almost 40%!

How to Embrace the Change:
Prepare yourselves for a more accessible journey to enhance your Ancient Wonders and make the most of these reduced Spell Fragment costs. This improvement empowers you to reach higher levels with ease, bringing new dimensions to your strategic gameplay.

Let us know in [link removed] if you come across any problems. Your thoughts are also always welcome in⁠ the other chats.

Thank you for your help and assistance!

Thank you, Pheryll. And thank you, Inno. RRs will still be a huge problem for casual players, who seem to be in the majority, but it's several steps in the right direction.

After some lengthy debate, we finally have some clarity on the FA rewards.

Although I still do not understand why it skipped the Verdant Phoenix artifacts.

Although I still do not understand why it skipped the Verdant Phoenix artifacts.

Because the FA was originally going to start before the event with the Verdant was even over. The eventual next FA should have it instead.

I thought the first release date (March 7th) was at the tail end of it.

Close. there would have been three more quests left if the FA had started Thursday morning.

Now Inno needs to fix that, lololol.

 

[iamthouth]

Good improvement on the Spell Fragments costs, I can resume playing on beta after that.

 

[Lelanya]

We are having an FA on the 19th, supposedly an unmodified version G. I will share more information on the day of.

 

[Lelanya]

Hey folks here it is - hot off the press

Rewards for FA are:
Map 1
1 x 15KP AW instant 1 x Carting Library 10 x 10 minute Time Instants

Map 2
2 x 20KP AW instant 1 x Tome of Sorcerer's Wisdom 15 x 30 minute Time Instant

Map 3
1 Ferris Wheel Galore 1 Sorcerer's Trial Artifact 25 x 45 minute Time Instant

For those who are not familiar with the Tome of Sorcerer's Wisdom, it contains a choice of one part of the Pilgrim's Manor set, or 8 Royal Restoration Spells. The Pilgrim's Manor set came from the second Sorcerer's event, May of 2021 on Beta, June of 2021 on live servers, and information should be available on the wiki about it.

All badges on map 1 are as per our information on map G published in numerous sources. All badges are the same as viewed in the previous year's FAs.

 

[Pheryll]

Hey folks here it is - hot off the press

And no Verdant Phoenix Artifact. If that does not appear on live then it will be interesting to see how they handle the future FAs

 

[Lelanya]

Surely the Phoenix Arties will be in the next FA. I suspect many folks will be taking the 8 RRs from the Sorcerer Tome. The company is giving us their best RR offer, but of course, we're not happy either way.

But that means one event before the next FA. I really do not want to see too frequent FAs given the arcane badges requiring a significant investment of CCs and SFs.
