6. CO-OP


■ Developer's note
Through this season, we're going to introduce the simplest defense map to the guardians for the first time.
Unlike existing maps that used to defend narrow streets, the main goal is to join forces on a wide battlefield to stop the enemy from attacking.
The composition of the existing five waves was reduced to three, and the proportion of each wave has been increased.

In addition, we have corrected some of the inconveniences by opinions sent by guardians, and will continue to update
For example, there were losing games and not knowing why. To solve this problem, we have implemented an in-game notice when the game is over so that the cause of the loss can be identified immediately.

We are always thinking about what needs to be improved through the review of opinions and data analysis sent by the knights.
We will continue to listen to all opinions of the knights and make it more fun.

11. Awakening Stone Exchange Function


■  Developer's note

In this update, the Awakening Stones Exchange system, which many guardians have suggested is added.
As a result of analyzing the Awakening Stone data currently owned by the guardians, it was confirmed that on average, there were many (Low) Normal Awakening Stones left.
And it was confirmed that there was a difference in individual types of Awakening Stones depending on the hero growing up.
Therefore, we have designed a system so that you can obtain other Awakening Stones by using the Awakening Stones that remaining after awakening the hero.
However, if exchange a large amount of Awakening Stones at once using, the Awakening Stones will not be enough for future use.
Therefore, there is a limit to the number of Awakening Stones that can be exchanged per day. We hope that the Awakening Stones Exchange system can help for growth up your hero.
