Hey, Raiders! We’re ironing out the final creases before Update 4.70 goes live, but we’re ready to share some of the details with you. This time, you can expect to see several cool QoL improvements and a Champion rebalance to address some of the most immediate PvP & PvE troubles. Read on to find out more!
Boss Guides
First of all, we’re introducing a neat little feature that will let you - whether you’re a green newbie or a grizzled veteran - learn more about various Raid Bosses and how to beat them before you get into a fight. Every Dungeon, every Boss Stage in the Doom Tower, Faction Wars, and even Clan Boss Battles will all feature a special pop-up that contains a full description of the Boss’ Skills and the overall strategy you’ll need to deal with them. The pop-up menu will be accessible via a special button on the Battle Selection screen.
If that alone isn’t enough, the second tab will feature a list of Teams of the Week that, as the name suggests, were the most successful at dealing with that particular Boss. With this feature, you’ll be able to plan and adjust your Teams before entering a difficult Battle and, we hope, it will make the experience a lot smoother!

It would be really appreciated if at least a refund on champion related resourced would be credited back or would be an option to do so whenever a nerf happens.
There are clear ways to quantify how many books have been applied if any, masteries might be tricker but lets be fare and whereever its maxed out masteries, credit back the gems for a full mastery. (even if the player grinded for energy and waited it out instead of buying directly using gems), the number of chickens, etc...
Please moderators, if not done already, bring this topic to the devs and implement it once the nerf related version gets rolled out.
sometimes I have to wonder, if the people at plarium are just stupid....NOT the moderators here, you guys are really friendly and sound very reasonable and understanding about our justified anger :) ... if they just did a moderate nerf, say the a1 to double and one thing to the a3 ...people would have been disappointed and maybe a bit angry... but still happy about having a good-great champ.... and there would not have been this outrage, that is going on right now.... IF they still think he is OP....they then could have easily do one next little nerf on the next rebalancing in 3-4 months.... people would not like it and say remember, when that guy was really great??? ....but no ... from Hero to Zero.... Plarium deserves all the outrage coming to them....
Also, servers were restart... the new champs are ingame .... but none of the skill descriptions of the buffed / nerfed champs are updated .... WHY?????????
We're first and foremost players, just like everyone posting. I know I try hard to be helpful! The moderators were actually very helpful to me way back when. :)
None of the nerfs/buffs are live yet as of this post, you are correct. I don't actually know when that is happening, but you'll see an update in the RSL discord.
Also, to all you folks in the threads and news, I appreciate the positivity towards myself and Harbs. We really are collecting every piece of feedback and constructive criticism, and the mood of the users here, and delivering it, and these threads, to Plarium for you.
Plarium is just completly Bonkers and completely fooling us.... they say that Urogrim is broken... because he can solo Dungeons???? so they nerf him while buffing Tomb Lord with the same patch ..... Who can now.....wait for it ... absolutely easily solo Dragon 25 ..... if your looking for proofs, just watch murderincs video... no idea if my comment got erased because of the link or why.... but apparently that's what they are doing now...
You gotta be kinding ..... I don't care if one is a void epic and one a (non void!) legendary..... the difference between those two can be minimal ...
Edited to follow forum rules. Also, no need to copy and paste this same post in several places. Thanks.
"We know how unsettling it is for you to see Urogrim being nerfed. His performance proved him to be way overpowered and even capable of clearing 20+ stages of the Dragon Dungeon solo - not the function he is supposed to do as an Epic Support Champion. Having an Epic Support Champion that outperforms a Legendary one of similar application, such as Bad-el-Kazar, throws the game balance off. After the rebalance, Urogrim will remain a decent Epic Champion, capable of supporting his team by healing them while debuffing the enemy."
And that's what the test server is for, no? Content creators demonstrated what Urogrim could do before he was released. We saw the videos, got excited, champ was released, we pull champ, invest time and resources knowing you saw what we saw and released the champ so of course we assume it's safe to invest. Then you nerf it from god tier to a "decent epic champ."
That's the problem. You knew what we knew and released it anyway. Bait and switch. I've been spending too much time in this game lately anyway, this is the nudge I needed.
Well you made a mistake, ok. Can happen to anyone and we are fortunately not working on a nuclear warhead... Well you have seen the solo 25 dragon runs on the test server but misjudged and want to correct this mistake again! OK!
To carry out your mistake on the back of the customers is wrong. It's obvious that I wouldn't build another "decent" epic champion with these abilities. No, I would have, if I had known about the massive nerf, I would finished me the Helmut. To be honest he would be another never touched champ on the bench.... just like many others!
My expectation is to get 6000 Gems and all books compensation for this.
P.S.:
As you have already said, it is necessary to correct what is out of balance. For my part, I built the champ exclusively because of the Dungens solo runs. Now if it is no longer to be then I would like everything I have invested in the champ back.
Let's be honest with each other; after the nerf, the support from him is then worse than from good rare champs:
Healing: here the apothecary is better
Poison: here then Benshee is better
I don't need this champ then so and he will go in the bank.... For me he is useless then!
A clan mate of mine said this, and I couldnt have said it better myself, so im going to copy and paste it:
The day this Urogrim nerf goes live without refund for books, masteries and chickens is the last day I have played this game.
This is straight out deception of the customers.
Release an overpowered Champ opposite to feedback of every content creator, let everyone invest and then nerf him massively?
They expect you to buy epic books in their store for 11 bucks, making this a wasted 150 bucks invest... and you are supposed to swallow this just like that... no way
Edited, there was no 10x event for Urogrim.
i agree with this completely. I spent a lot of money in shards to get him, now he will be no where near what I expected when I spent so much just to get him let build him.
it's like spending money on a car and what shows up when delivered it's a bike.
I'm disgusted by the companies ability to do this especially with no compensation in return.
this potential Nerf, which is very unwise to fallow through on, has made me learn not to spend money on shards or building good champions because you never know what stupid change will wreck it all in the future. I if I can't spend without worry of what might change then I'll stop spending. if I stop spending I'll most likely just quit.
test your stuff first, all that time and effort I could have put into something else is wasted on something I wouldn't have pulled so hard for and built so fast.
this game takes tons of time, energy, resources just to 6* and fully ascend that I'm insanely irritated.
I'd like all the money I spent on void shards to get him back. you guys can take all the champs i pulled back as well including the Legos. if you cant do that then pretest your stuff before you launch it.

yes this is what the test server is for. I didn't spend tons of money on shards for Giscard or build either of the two that I have because he's not a stand out champion.
I would have never spent the money on the shards to get Urogrim if he was released with the Nerf stats and I had never known he was nerfed. I would have never built him at all even if I did pull him.
if they fallow through with the Nerf I can't spend another dime on the game. It's enough of a waste to spend money on a mobile game but when you spend as much as this insane game costs and then don't even get what you expect in the end infuriates me.
re are so many Terrible Epics in the game yet you guys can't seem to let the S tier Epics be S tier.
Giscard could have been an S Tier and fun champ to use. but how many people do you think have him but not built right out.
I was upset about Giscard too but I was not angry because I never spent my hard earned money or my precious time to get him or build him. so when I pulled hi o vaulted him and said "too bad you could have been great" oh well.
