Hideout Energy Changes
- Hideouts Level 4 or higher now drain more Energy
- However, if the guild owns the territory in the zone, the additional Energy drain is offset. (i.e. owning a territory will have the same energy drain rate as before)
- Energy Gain from Power Cores for normal Hideouts is reduced by 25%
- Energy Gain from Power Cores for HQ Hideouts stays unchanged
Hideout Level | Additional Energy Drain (without Territory) |
4 | 17% |
5 | 20% |
6 | 25% |
7 | 33% |
8 | 50% |
9 | 100% |
Crystal League & Crystal Arena
- 5v5 Crystal League & Crystal Arena:
- Changed the map to Cross Map
Crystal Arena Rank Point Changes
- Adjusted Rank Point formula to make it less likely that players suddenly hit a wall.
- Previously, players would easily hit a wall where a win gave less RP than the RP they would lose on a loss. This would lead to players getting stuck even with a win rate over 50% in their bracket.
- Crystal and Iron brackets are not greatly affected, but players are far less likely to get stuck in Silver and early Gold brackets now if they have good win rates.
Castle & Castle Outpost Treasure Spawn Times
- All Castle & Castle Outpost Treasure Spawn Times have been moved 30 minutes earlier, to make it more manageable to contest a Territory Fight and go for the Castle Chest afterwards in most cases.
- This change affects Albion West and Albion East.
Guild Season Avatars
The following new Avatars are awarded to ranking guilds:
- Crystal Conqueror Avatar
- Gold Conqueror Avatar
