■ Relay Defense Maps Added


Starting on , Relay Defense maps will appear in Special Maps.

Guide Relay Defense Map

On Relay Defense maps, the goal is to defend your territory for a total of eight turns.

Create a brigade of 20 Heroes using Edit Brigades to use on these maps. Every two turns, your active Heroes will be swapped in and out of battle in groups of five.

Guide Relay Defense Score

You will receive a score based on how many enemies you defeat and how many of your Heroes survive.

These new maps challenge you to create new strategies, such as strengthening your fortress's defenses with Heroes who have high Def or Res.

Relay Defense maps will be released periodically instead of the Rival Domains maps, which ran every week on Saturday at 2:00 p.m.

・ Rival Domains maps will not be available while Relay Defense maps are active.
・ Relay Defense maps will be active for two weeks at a time.

■ New Weapon Skills and Weapons to Refine

■ Combat Manuals Added

You can now send Heroes back to their worlds and create a Combat Manual in exchange. You can create a Combat Manual by selecting Manage Barracks, which will be added to the Allies menu.

Update Manage Barracks

Though you will no longer be able to send the unit to battle, Combat Manuals can be used instead of Heroes in the Inherit Skill and Merge Allies menus.

Combat Manuals do not use up barracks slots, so you can turn Heroes you don’t plan to send to battle into Combat Manuals to conserve space. Additionally, you can have up to 9,999 of each type of Combat Manual.

Update Combat Manual Inherit Skill

Update Combat Manual Merge Allies

Note:

You cannot turn a Combat Manual back into a Hero, and you cannot use Combat Manuals in the Enhance slot for Merge Allies.

・ Level
・ Number of times merged
・ EXP
・ Learned skills
・ Inherited or refined skills
・ Conferred blessings
・ Summoner Support or Ally Support
・ Sacred Seals or accessories
・ Skill sets

The following changes will be applied with the addition of Combat Manuals:

・ You can use Unlock Potential even if the Hero is level 1.
・ Send Home is now under Manage Barracks. Additionally, the confirmation message will display twice, like with Create Combat Manual.
・ A button will be added to Inherit Skill to prioritize showing Combat Manuals over Heroes.

Update Combat Manual Priority
