👨🚀 The HQ has prepared a new 3.17.1 update. It’s gradually becoming available to all Commanders. And here’s a changelog.
Game Modes
🔻 HQ has added a new Contests event. Now, by winning ranked battles during the Contest, Commanders earn special tokens. The more tokens collected, the more rewards a Commander can receive. Also, special final rewards are provided for top positions in the contest’s leaderboards. These leaderboards are divided by level ranges, meaning each leaderboard has its own top-ranking Commanders.
There are three types of tournaments available: Newbie Pursuit, Elite Contest, and Arena Cup.
Newbie Pursuit is available to Commanders starting from level 3. The contest runs once every 24 hours. Winning a ranked battle with any class of ship grants the Commander 5 tokens. Current rewards include Celestium, Credits, experience, chips and gold chips, Alpha, Beta, Delta, and Theta Galaxies, as well as tickets. These tickets are required to enter the Arena Cup contest.
Elite Contest is available to Commanders from level 10. The contest runs 1 to 3 times per 24 hours on weekdays. The number of tokens received depends on the class of ship:
- Fighter – 1 token
- Corvette – 3 tokens
- Frigate – 5 tokens
- Cruiser – 6 tokens
- Battleship – 7 tokens
- Carrier – 8 tokens
- Supercarrier – 9 tokens
- Galactic Carrier – 10 tokens
Current rewards include Celestium, Credits, chips and gold chips, Alpha, Beta, Delta, Phantom Galaxies, Limit Breakers, and tickets for Arena Cup.
Arena Cup is available to Commanders on weekends. A certain number of tickets are required to participate. These can be earned by playing in the Newbie Pursuit and Elite Contest or purchased with Celestium. The minimum participation level depends on the ship received by TOP1 Commanders. The number of tokens received depends on the class of ship:
- Fighter – 1 token
- Corvette – 2 tokens
- Frigate – 3 tokens
- Cruiser and Battleship – 4 tokens
- Carrier, Supercarrier, and Galactic Carrier – 5 tokens
Current rewards include ships, blueprints for special and regular ships, success units, Celestium, Iota, and Phantom Galaxies.
The HQ is starting these tournaments for the first time so that changes may occur, including rewards and dates. Be sure to share your impressions of the tournaments on our Discord server. We’ll read every feedback. As soon as all Commanders update to the 3.17.1 version, we will start the first Contest!
Modules and Ships
🔻 We’ve prepared a new module for the beta test. This module has a unique mechanic, appearing for the first time in Arena’s history. Commanders will soon be able to try out this novelty and share their thoughts on our social media.
🔻 Trial ships have been significantly reworked:
- Offers for trial ships now appear starting at level 35 instead of level 15.
- In the Ship Competition (SC) mode, you now earn 30,000 Credits for a victory and 15,000 Credits for a defeat while playing on new trial ships (previously, it was 15,000 Credits for a win and 3,000 Credits for a loss).
- The number of battles has increased from 80 to 100.
- Now, there’s a chance to get blueprints for Kronos after winning in SC. The highest chance of receiving blueprints is for Kronos, Prophet, and Oblivion Ark.
- Light Fighter blueprints have been removed from the loot.
- The cost of extra battles in SC remains the same.
- Offer prices have been increased.
Misc
🔻 HQ continues to deal with third-party apps (macros, etc.) that give an unfair advantage in the game, including the new Contests event. This time, we’ve changed the captcha system. Now, Commanders must type the correct answer instead of choosing from the suggested options. The conditions for triggering the captcha remain unchanged.
🔻 Various bugs have been fixed.
