Patch Notes (05.01.23) Update 6.40.0

Plarium Points Program, Champion rebalance, and more!

We’ve got some awesome new ways for you to get cool rewards with the Plarium Points Program and new Chests, as well as Champion balance changes and some other updates and fixes. Let’s dive into everything coming to Raid with version 6.40.0:

Plarium Points Program

The Plarium Points Program is a feature where you can earn Plarium Points and unlock great rewards. The more Points you have, the more rewards you can get.

The Program consists of 3 Cards at a time. Each of these Cards contains slots, and each slot has a reward which you get once you have earned a certain number of Plarium Points, similar to rewards earned by gaining Campaign Stars.

Among the rewards are Searsha the Charred, a Legendary Sylvan Watchers Champion, as well as Artifacts & Accessories for her, Perfect and Split Souls to Awaken her, Artifact Ascension Oils, Awakening items, XP & Rank Up items, and other useful goodies.

Searsha the Charred

Rarity: Legendary

Type: Support

Affinity: Force

Faction: Sylvan Watchers

Note: you can only get Searsha the Charred via the Plarium Points Program, you will not be able to summon her from Shards.

You can earn Plarium Points by:

- taking part in or completing select in-game activities (like different Events and Tournaments)

- claiming Playtime Rewards

- completing Advanced Quests

- purchasing select offers

New type of reward

We’re adding 5 tiers of Chests to the game:

- Bronze Chest

- Silver Chest

- Gold Chest

- Platinum Chest

- Diamond Chest

You can earn them in various Events and Tournaments. Each of them can drop one kind of item, randomly chosen from a predetermined reward pool. The higher the tier of a Chest, the better the reward in it. You can earn Silver, Gems, Shards, Skill Tomes, and more from different tiers of Chests, so keep an eye out for them!

Change the order of the teams on Tag Team Arena

We are adding the ability to change the order of the teams in Tag Team Arena by hitting the arrow buttons. Also you can clear all the Champion slots by tapping the trash button.

Added the Stop Multi-Battle button to the Pause window

We have introduced the ability to stop a Multi-Battle sequence without immediately ending the current battle. You can now stop your Multi-Battle sequence after the current battle finishes by hitting the “Stop Multi-Battle” button in the Pause window. Alternatively, you can still hit the “Turn Off Multi-Battle” button on the results screen to finish a Multi-Battle sequence, or select the “End Current Battle” button in the Pause window to immediately end a Battle.

I love Plarium play , but I do only play RAID  on my gaming PC. So my quick math caculated that for rough;y $5000 Canadian or 2 years  of daily login time (Free to play)  I can get that champion

or any combination of  both.  fair enough to me

I do like that after getting the champion I can also do the grind again for gear and souls ;)

In 2 years of playing, you will never score points for this hero! There are obvious problems with mathematics!😈

It will take 7 years to get this character purely by playing without attachments! Bravo to the developers!

I've worked out that it will take 22yrs to receive Searsha The Charred for non-pc owners using Plarium Points at 3pts per day and that's if we log into RAID every day throughout. I am currently 60 years old, so I feel the need to apologise in advance should I not be around to collect her

Plarium Points are bad and you should feel bad. I don't mind investing in a game I enjoy, but this is an obvious cash grab for a legendary that does only slightly more than Mordecai does. 


If I purchased a 50$ pack of points right now, it would net me a few fragments, a chaos ore, 50 auto battles, a few hundred power, and 50 gems. That's it. You're going to start hemorrhaging players at some point, and while I know the whales will keep you afloat for a while, it would be great if you could at least fake caring about your player base outside of big spenders.

You are expecting a champion that has an BASIC aoe hp burn on a 4 turn cooldown to be a champion that will take YEARS to obtain??? you get a free one called Akoth, MUCH sooner. Plarium YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR MINDS if you think this is an okay thing to do. You should be ashamed of yourselves on this one. I have gone through all the bad updates recently hoping you could do good things. The other three champions you changed were well thought out, but this new champion isn't even good enough to be called legendary In my opinion. You HAVE GOT to stop overvalueing things in your game because many people are getting sick of it and it's not fair to your player base.

Ooo, Plaurium, do you specifically motivate people to donate?
I understand that after a few years the hero can be obtained for free, without tournaments, but do you think that you can justify such a period of play for "it's free!"?

I now understand how much you value the time of the players who spend time in your game.

Pretty cool changes, nothing stays the same forever.

Only bad note:

Removed heal reduction from Teela, booo! Yep, she's completely useless now.

Plenty of other waaay waaaaaaaaaay overpowered champs to rebalance.

Buna ziua,

Am aproape 2 ani de cand joc ,acest joc, am peste 60 ani tot astept versiunea si in limba romana fiindca suntem foarte multi jucatori din Romania. Pentru acest motiv ma descurc foarte greu cu indeplinirea misiunilor.

Asa cum am spus la 2 ani de joc nu mi-a intrat Arbiter, Cold Heart si Diaconul care sunt foarte necesari in joc si alti eroi !!!

Va multumesc pentru intelegere si va salut cu respect.

I am playing from the phone and I found out that I don't receive the Plarium points when I am buying items (gems etc) from the shop.  can you advise why? this is a total discrimination. Besides this, why the reward is different if you play from the Phone vs desktop? Ffs

Dumbest thing about this is they made it fragments lol, like 25,000 wasnt enough to simply get the champion they added fragments, taking up possible reward positions along the way.

This is crazy.. 22 years to get a legendary for a "Free to play" account is outrageous! The cost of points as well is ridiculous. Come on now plarium this has to be a early April Fools Joke..

Created an account on this forum JUST to make sure devs understand how horrible this Points garbage is. Already bad enough with all the popups and useless ascending/souls BS, now this?!?! 

I'm now, never going to NEVER make another in game purchase, because to do so would mean it rewards this avarice and greed.

Dearest Plarium,

Thank you for making a game that provides hours....no, years of entertainment. I find it troubling to see that you want money for all of your efforts, with hundreds of employees working to make this game work correctly, a system of awards and prizes given freely everyday just for logging in and more than enough characters with incredible detail to choose from and outfit with a dynamic upgrade-able armor system. What'[s more, you expect your customers to grind and play the game for hours just to improve the characters that we marvel at? How dare you sirs?

Honestly, I play the game on two platforms and I cannot complain one bit. When I have a few extra dollars , I will buy what packs I can afford and I am grateful for it. I do not expect something for nothing and every patch, every upgrade, and every event that you create is REALLY something. I urge you to stick to your guns, pay to play is just one way that you can put food on your table and I try to give when I can. Pay To Play is not a bad word, it's necessary to have players give back and creates a way for your consumers to 'put a little money on the line' to help the next level of this game or even the next. 

THANK YOU
