Defenders 2: Tower Defense CCG

New Season

New Season has begun! All players’ mines went to the bots and their level dropped. Your task is to get the mines back, level them up, and defend them against other players’ attacks!
With introduction of the new resource mines we have added a new shevron that you can get for your rating achievements during the Season.

New Сards

Cleaner — mythic tower that converts Prime's energy into electricity. Its power hits both ground and flying targets. Totems and teleporters take increased damage.

Castigator — this mythic tower is a real boon in boss battles! Its devastating bullets pierce through the Creeps and inflict enormous damage.


Have a great game, Defenders!

New Season

The new season is here! All players’ mines went to the bots and their levels dropped. Your task is to take them back, level them up, and defend them from other players’ attacks! And, when the season is over, the bravest and most courageous defenders will receive chevrons reflecting the valor they have shown on the battlefields.

New Cards

Basilisk is a mythic flying serpent who came from other worlds. It will buff the members of the Sleep group.

Bonecrusher is a mythic goliath that underwent some mutations and got incredible strength. His power-wielding fists will help the towers of the Hemorrhage group become stronger than ever before.

Tower of Repose is a mythic tower with a magic eye that puts the Creeps asleep and makes the flying enemies land. Say “Sweet dreams” to the Creeps!

Swallower is a mythic ancient spirit that seized the body of an old tree. Its powerful roots will annihilate and curse the underground Creeps that stand in your way!

Ferocity is a mythic spell that increases the damage dealt by your towers significantly. Besides, towers that can attack the underground Creeps receive additional bonuses from this spell.

As usual, you will be able to get the new cards at the coming events.

Fixes

- Fixed the bug with the Heroes of the Fire group that gave a buff to the Flying Shredder tower;
- Fixed the bug with the effect runes that incorrectly increased the damage dealt by the Missile Launcher tower to the bosses.

Update 1.9.5

New Heroes
Meet a new legendary Heroine in the game: Wild Rider and her foil variant.
Wild Rider is a counterpart of a well-known Night Queen.

New Boss
Now, if you are of Level 90, you may encounter Magus, a new boss in the Prime Zone! He constantly heals the monsters around him and becomes faster if you try to inflict Fear on him.

Rebalances
• Now, Detonator deals additional damage to the monsters instead of exploding them.
• Foil Detonator deals additional damage to the monsters that has Prime and, as it did before, explodes them upon killing.

Fixes
• Fixed the bug with foil Aim Tower that looked the same as the regular one on the battlefield;
• Mythic Heroes now reach the maximum of an upgraded-in-battle parameter only if they are fully upgraded.

Hotfix

To lessen the effect of the second bonus on the overall value of Endurance Rune we have increased the rune’s bonus to the effect:
- Endurance Rune now increases the effect by 50% and toughness by 75% (instead of increasing the effect by 30% and toughness by 50%)

Also, we have increased damage bonus of Pumpkin Rune to lessen the effect of changing the rune set in Towers with periodic damage on their effectiveness in battles:
- Longevity Rune now increases damage by 70% and toughness by 75% (instead of increasing damage by 45%)

Fixed the bug with incorrect damage bonus:
- Strengthen Rune now increases damage by 35% and toughness by 75% (instead of incorrect damage increase by 50%)

- Fixed the bug with missing anomalies created by Demonologist that could disappear with restart of the battle.

Defenders!
The version 1.9.4 is here.

Chat
You have asked to introduce some new features into the game chat, and we have listened :)
- Now you can see account level next to player’s nick;
- Tapping on the player’s nick will copy it and paste it automatically into the text field;
- Upon receiving foil version of a card you will see an asterisk before the card’s name;
- If the player gets two or more same cards in a row, they will receive only one technical notification;
- Tapping on the card’s name in the chat will let you see its full description and appearance;
- Your own message will no longer be shown as a notification on the chat indicator on the global map.

New Cards
Meet Bruiser, a new Hero in the Prime Zone! He is a legendary counterpart of a well-known players’ favourite Hero, Duelist :)

Also, there are foil versions of the following cards: Flying Crusher, Missile Launcher, Bruiser, Patriot, and Lady Frost.
As with the other foil cards you have a chance to get them while crafting :)

Anomaly Towers
Now, there is a chance for an Anomaly Tower to appear on the battlefield.
This is a special Tower that will help you fight specific enemies in a battle. However, it is damaged at the beginning of the battle and requires some amoun of Prime.
Please note: these anomalies do not receive bonuses from Demonologist and Night Queen.

New Enemies
If your account is of Level 90 you may encounter new enemies on the battlefields — fearless warriors of the wolf pack!

- Gnoll. When trying to inflict Fear on this small and fast monster, he clears himself of all debuffs and increases his speed by 200%.
- Werewolf is a ground monster with average health and speed parameters. When trying to inflict Fear on him, he clears himself of all debuffs and increases his speed by 200%.
- Wolfhound. He is slow, has plenty of health and strong armor parameter. He also clears himself of all debuffs and increases his speed by 200% when trying to inflict Fear on him.

Runes
- Endurance Rune now increases effectiveness and health parameters of the Tower (instead of main parameter and Tower’s ability power);
- Strengthen Rune now increases the Tower’s toughness by 45-50% (instead of 45-75%)
- Longevity Rune now increases the Tower’s toughness by 45-70% (instead of 45-75%)
- Runes that increase the Tower’s main parameter now add main damage and damage per second to the Towers with periodic damage.
- Now damage and damage over time for the Towers with periodic damage is increased with the damage parameter instead of the effectiveness. Because of that you cannot place runes that increase effectiveness on the Towers with periodic damage (Hornet Hive, Volcano, Colony of Bats, etc.).

Rebalances
- Now Pumpkin Tower’s (and its foil counterpart’s) projectiles curse enemies instead of slowing them down.
- Damage of Missile Launcher has been increased.

Fixes
- Fixed the bug with Fleetles not being stunned by Meteor while underground.
- Fixed the bug with the foil Tu’Rehu when upgrading him by 6 or 8 helmets increased an incorrect amount of parameters.
- Fixed the bug with Missile Launcher that in some cases could destroy allied Towers.
- Fixed the visual bug when the player could see the card that they would get from the chest in the chest preview.
- Fixed the visual bug when foil Dealy Prime Tower did not show graphic effects of a buff from Prime Injector and Aim Tower.

Defenders!
The version 1.9.3 is here.

Rune Crafting
Welcome a new system in the game — rune crafting system!

By using it you can create any rune of your choice: with double or triple effects, special event ones (for example, from the Halloween set of pumpkin runes or a triple rune for the central slot). The only condition is that you have at least one such rune in your collection.

The system itself is similar to the Tower, Spell, and Hero crafting systems:
- You should choose a rune that you want to create from the inventory. For crafting you need to have at least one such rune of any rarity in your inventory;
- And proceed to the rune crafting interface by tapping a special button.

In the interface you can see:
- What rune was picked for crafting;
- Progress Bar: you will make crafting available the first time you fill the bar to 100%. However, the rune you are creating will have a minimal rarity (for example, epic rarity in case of double runes and legendary for Retribution Rune). The more times you fill the progress bar, the rarer rune you will get, up to the cyan one.

If the progress bar is not completely filled the shown % indicates your chance of getting an additional rune of higher rarity.

Rune crafting requires some Silver and stones. The cost will increase accordingly the rarer the rune you are creating.
Besides, creating runes with double and triple effects, and event runes will increase the cost of crafting and requirements for how much your progress bar is filled.

You can use any runes for crafting. The rarer the rune you use for crafting the more % of progress bar it will fill.
However, the number of rune effects (one, two or three) will not help you fill the progress bar faster.


Random Shop Change
To make buying at the Random Shop more understandable and be in control of it, we have changed its assortment renewal rules.
– Now, you can renew the assortment of goods only by tapping the Update button;
– Free renewals are given every three hours and you can get the maximum of three (as it is now).

New Enemy
Welcome her on the battlefields, Iron Fury! This flying enemy is protected by armor and you can encounter her if your account has reached Level 90.

New Towers
There are two new mythic towers in the game — Flying Crusher and Missile Launcher
Flying Crusher deals area damage, affecting both ground and underground enemies. And flies away then :)
Missile Launcher is similar to the well-known Mortars and seals additional damage to the bosses.

New Hero
Shaman invited his closest sibling to the Prime Zone, foil Shaman :)

Rebalances
– Basic range of Aim Tower is 2.5 now (instead of 2)
– Basic range of foil Aim Tower is 3 now (instead of 2.5)

Fixes
– Fixed the bug with curses when effects from different sources did not sum up;
– Fixed the bug with graphical effect from Aim Tower might not appear on the Towers standing on the edge of its range.

- Event rating fixed
- Curency’s current count added to the Spooky shop UI

Thematic Event
Attention Defenders! We found a place with very high otherworld activity in Defenders 2! They say there is really spooky fun going on there...

Defeat the attacks of the Creeps on a special location, get pumpkins as a reward, and exchange them for valuable prizes in a special Dreadful Store!

And get the main event reward — special themed runes!
These are Tower runes with upgraded double and triple effects and a dreadful pumpkin on the icon :)

You can find out more about the new runes and the rules of the event in our social networks.

Special Card Shards
– Besides, among the sweet prizes you may find Shadow shards of the legendary Towers, Spells, and Heroes in the Dreadful Store. You will not be able to create a card with them but they can be used for crafting and/or card upgrades :)

New Foil Cards
– Foil versions of Golden Dust Barrier, Fire Rain, Wendigo, and Pumpkster are in the game now.

Rebalances
– Now The Queen Tower deals 100% additional damage to flying enemies (instead of 50%). – Ascension and Ingenuity Runes no longer increase the main parameter of the Tower but, starting from the legendary rarity, add an additional in-battle upgrade. The maximum number of upgrades (on cyan rarity) is five now.
– Barrier Rune now doubles the amount of additional damage to the Tower — 40-70%.

Revisioned Moments
– Mythic chests cannot be bought for Red Crystals any longer — only for Stars;
– Rewards for completing assignments have been changed:
- The number of obtained essences is 50, 150, and 500 per star now;
- The number of obtained helmets is 20, 60 and 120 per star now.
– At the players’ requests, the ability to sell whole cards for Silver is back.

Fixes
– Fixed an incorrect interaction between the anomaly and Prime Injector’s bonuses;
– Fixed an incorrect damage increase when leveling-up Flying Saucer;
– Fixed the bug with an active Spell timer that stopped working on the following hard level;
– Fixed the bug with a Spell timer that was not working for some Spells.

Chests
– Now, the regular chests that you can receive as a battle reward or buy at the store can get you cards, Heroes shards, and all types of Hero tokens.
– We have removed Hero chests from the game.
Please note! You cannot get new Heroes — who appeared in the game with the last update — as well as the Heroes of the Servants and Brisk groups from the chests.

– Now you can get mythic chests as a battle reward (both in PvP and in PvE high-level locations)
– Besides, the red chests now contain not only card shards but also silver, resources, and legendary runes (including those with a double effect)
– At the same time, you can buy red chests at the store for both Red Crystals and Stars.
Please note! In the future, the purchase of mythic chests for Red Crystals will be disabled.

Rewards for Completed Tasks
– Now, you can get Hero tokens as a reward for a completed task. Silver ones if your account is of Level 30 or above and Golden ones if it is of Level 70 or above.

Crafting System
Defenders 2 introduces a completely new system: the creation of specific player-selected Tower, Spell, or Hero card shards.
Now you can use the accumulated shards to create the cards that you need!

To do this, you need to follow the instruction:
– Select the card or card shard from those available in the collection;
– Use a special button in the card menu that will take you directly to the crafting interface;
– Select which cards from the inventory you would like to convert to the ones you have selected at the first stage.

Besides, by doing this, you get a chance of receiving a bonus — shards of card's foil analog or other special cards.
You can learn more about crafting in our groups on social networks.

New Creeps
– A new enemy has appeared in the Prime Zone, Fleetle! You can meet it in any location if your account is of Level 90.
This flying enemy is extremely cunning: when trying to land, it burrows under the ground, removing all debuffs from itself, and continues its way there.

Heroes
– Now, when choosing Heroes for a team (in the ship interface), you can see special icons indicating that the Hero belongs to a particular group.
– Also, you can now sort Heroes by groups.

Usability
– Added the function for an early automatic release of the Creep waves. Hooray!
– Added the duration of magic display in-battle. It is a special icon with a countdown timer.

Evolution
The evolution cost for cards of mythic rarity has been changed.
– The new cost of the evolution of red Towers and Spells is 150 Red Crystals, 20,000 essences of one type, and 10,000 essences of another.
– Evolution of the red Hero costs 150 Red Crystals + 4,500 silver helmets + 2,250 golden helmets.

New Cards
– Added foil counterparts for many cards:
Towers: Incombustible Blackthorn, Flying Saucer, Incandescent Core, Christmas Tree, Festival Mortar, Petard Mortar, Minigun, Reviving Tower, Snowball, The Queen, Ghost Tower, Banshee Tower, Colony of Bats.
Spells: Merciless Strike, Time Warp, Golden Dust Barrier, Poisonous Swamp.
Heroes: Banshee, Vampire, Da'Ka, Defender, Nosferatu, Tu'Rehu, Snow Maiden, Mage, Vixen, Squink, Highlander, Fanatic.
– Also, welcome a legendary hero of the Incineration group, Fiery Priestess, and her foil counterpart

Rebalances
– The Queen's second effect has changed — now it deals 50% more damage to flying enemies (previously, it returned 80% of the price upon sale).
Also, the base damage for the Queen and its foil counterpart is increased by 5%
– The Hornet Hive and Colony of Bats now make invisible enemies visible and can attack invisible enemies (previously, they did not allow them to go invisible).

Fixes
– Fixed a bug with the Might Rune (and double runes with this effect) not affecting some towers.
– Fixed a bug with Flying Smasher and Snowball's projectiles that sometimes were floating in the air.

Minor fixes to improve gameplay in the early game.

Defenders!

We have made some hotfixes thanks to your feedback.

Fixes
– Fixed a bug when Heroes without a group would disembark the ship when you re-launched the game.

Battle Passes and Events
– Now you can collect all available rewards with just one button!
You no longer have to collect each prize individually — get everything at once!
– Also, when you open the Battle Pass window now, you will see the current rewards right away, without having to scroll down

Battle Passes

Defenders!
We are introducing Defenders 2's new weekly Battle Passes! With them, you can, depending on the PvE-mode, get the cards you need — shards of Towers and Spells, runes, or other resources.

- Battle Pass: Assault will let you get runes for Towers and Spells;
- Battle Pass: Raid will let you increase the number of valuable resources;
- Battle Pass: Hunt will let you obtain shards of cards.

To get rewards, you need to clear difficult levels in PvE locations (“swords” on the map) of the corresponding mode.
Each pass has two lines of prizes — a free one, which is available without any additional conditions, and a paid one, which prizes are available only if you purchase a specific Battle Pass.

Heroes
The global rebalancing of the Hero system is here!
• For each group of Towers and Spells there is its own line of Heroes now;
• You can take only one Hero from the group into battle.
• The Hero's rarity now determines cards of what color their bonus will apply to. The higher the rarity of the Tower or Spell is, the rarer the Hero must be to enhance it;
• Also, the value and even the number of bonuses depend on the rarity of the Hero. For example, the rarest (mythic) hero will give the cards of his group as many as three bonuses, including additional upgrades in battle!
• Besides, we have revised the value of the Hero bonuses — we have increased them.

New Heroes
New heroes have appeared in the game:
• Mythic: Shaman, Patriot, Berserk Alpha, Squink
• Legendary: Head Hunter, Primologist, Berserker, Mort, Lightning
You can get these Heroes in special events. Do not miss them!

Changes in Hero System
• Now the cards of Heroes, who are hired on the ship, have a SHIP marker in the collection;
• Freeze now slows down only ground creeps;
• Fanatic now increases the amount of Prime at the beginning of a battle;
• Heroes that have an impact on the battle strategy are united in groups:
- Fanatic, Highlander, Defender are in the Servants group;
- Lady Frost, Snow Maiden, Da'Ka are in the Brisk group;
- Freeze, Dendromonster, Fay are in the Containment group.
Like other Heroes of the same group, they cannot be recruited at the same time.
• Besides, Snow Maiden, Highlander, and Da'Ka now give effects to all cards, including mythic ones.

Experience
In this version we have also revised the systen for gaining exp.

• Now the main way to gain exp is by merging cards
• The amount of exp gained per battle reaches its maximum at level 90 of any location.
• Each card gives a fixed amount of exp, depending on its rarity.
• If a similar card is used for merging, the amount of exp will be several times higher;
• Bonuses from the ship and Heroes will also affect the process of getting exp.

Please note!
If the card used for merging already has a certain amount of experience (i.e. the card level is above 1), then it will be added to the merging experience.

• Given the fact that cards of high rarity are giving much more experience when merging now, the requirements for leveling up have also been raised.

Sorting the Shards
• The shards with the NEW marker will now be displayed first;
• After them, there will be all the shards from which you can collect at least 1 whole card, separated according to the basic rarity;
• And at the end there will be the shards which are not enough to collect the whole card, also separated according to the basic rarity.

Bug Fixes
• Upgrading the Frost Tower in battle increases the slowing down effect;
• Foil bonus for the Snow Cannon has been changed to a 20% increase in the slowing down effect;
• Fixed a bug with the foil Underground Predator that made it impossible to insert runes that increase the effect duration;
• Fixed a bug with the Flying Saucer's damage;
• Fixed a bug with the Towers where in some cases it was possible to upgrade them by using All-Purpose Gears of a lesser rarity.

Update 1.8.9

Improvements
Dear friends!
This update brought game engine improvement. This important change will help us optimize game performance on a number of devices, fix some bugs, and add new features in the future

New
The game has a league version of the Mermaid's Tower, stunning underground enemies. You can get it in special events.

Apple ID
The Apple ID login option was added

Fixes
Fixed the bug with the Prime Injector and Deadly Strike spell that increased the League Seismic Slammer's bonus damage, but not the main damage;
Fixed the bug with the League Fog Tower that did not highlight targets in fog;
Fixed the bug with the runes inventory that, when full, did not allow the player under Level 8 to go into battle;
Fixed the bug when some players could not find the All-Purpose Gears shards;
Fixed the bug with UP marker that showed up on some cards even if they could not be upgraded.

Dear friends! Thank you for letting us know about the bugs you have found. This way, we can quickly figure out the cause and make necessary changes.
As a token of our gratitude for your help and patience, we have prepared some gifts for you — you may pick them up in your in-game mailbox.

Rating
- Due to an error, some Towers dealt an extremely high amount of damage. That is why the rating that players earned in the mines since the Season start (July 22) has been reset.
Thus, the Season has started anew.
We made this decision to prevent a possible situation where a player could not pass a mine because its level had risen greatly due to the Towers dealing an abnormally high amount of damage.

Fixes
- Fixed the bug that greatly increased damage of some Towers (including their league counterparts): Deadly Poison Shooter, Dragon Tower, Sky Burner, Volcano, Pumpkin Gun, Hornet Hive, Colony of Bats. Now their damage corresponds to the original plan.
- Fixed the bug with a double bonus that the Volcano and Pumpkin Launcher received from the Heroes Vixen and Fire Fox.
- Fixed the bug with the Colony of Bats that increased the Tower range, instead of the damage when you upgraded this Tower in battle.
- Fixed the bug that did not stack the damage increase from the Deadly Strike and the same effect from the Prime Injector or the Aim Tower.
- Fixed the bug where slowing down effects did not stack up.
- Fixed the bug with the UP marker that would appear on cards even if they could not be upgraded.

Chests
- Now when you receive or purchase more than 3 chests, you can see all the chests loot immediately.
No more watching the chest opening animation many times in a row!

New Magic
- Now there is a legendary analog of the players' favorite Deadly Strike in the game — Merciless Strike. Using this magic increases tower damage by 25%.
You can get it in special events. Do not miss it!

Shards and Runes
The card management has become much more convenient — you can control the fuse and sale with the accuracy of one card, even in shards!
- In the multisell and fuse interfaces, you can now see two new buttons — '+1' and '+max'. They will help you control the selection of runes and chards (in increments of one card) when you sell or fuse them.
- Also, now at the very top of the window in the multisell interface, you can see the amount and type of currency you will get by selling selected cards or shards.
At the same time, if there are not enough shards for at least one card, selling such a pack will be impossible.

Effects Mechanics
- Now all the effects add up, but only if they come from different sources.
Thus, a 20% increase in damage from the Accursed Bastion, 20% from the Spider Nest, and 20% from the Curse will add up and will give a 60% increase in damage to the Creeps.
At the same time, 20% of one Accursed Bastion and 20% of another Accursed Bastion will not add up.
The same goes for tower buffs, damage over time, etc.

Tower Upgrades in Battle
- Upgrading the Tower increases only the main impact parameter. For damage towers, this is damage, the strength of buffs or debuffs for support towers, and the chance of triggering for counter towers.

Tower Parameters
- The towers have received an increase in damage (including league counterparts): Deadly Poison Shooter, Totem Bane, Dragon Tower, Machinegun, Sniper Tower, Ice Tower, Splitter, Deadly Prime Cannon, Machinegun MK2, Fire Tower, Air Guard, Mortar, Seismic Slammer, Spirit Tower, Detonator, Sky Burner, Underground Predator, Lightning Tower, Tower of the Sun, Volcano, Hornet Hive, Electric Tower, Prime Arrester, League Prime Thistle, Flying Cannon, Flying Saucer, Flying Spray, Sniper Rifle, Tornado Generator, Indestructible Idol, Incandescent Core, Ghost Tower, Pumpkin Gun, Colony of Bats, Tower of Chaos, Snowball, Festival Mortar, Petard Mortar, Minigun, The Queen.
- The towers have received an increase in range (including league counterparts): Frost Tower, Detonator, Accursed Bastion, Frost Guard, Prime Injector, Snow Cannon, Tower of Order.
- The towers have received a reduction in the rate of fire (including league counterparts): Spray Tower, Seismic Slammer, Flying Cannon, Tornado Generator.
- The towers have received an increase in the rate of fire (including league counterparts): Electric Tower, Flying Spray.

Towers
- The League Underground Predator now spreads the plague among the underground Creeps (similar to what the Hornet Hive does to other Creeps);
- The Flying Prime Arrester is now acting similar to the Lightning Tower. Thus, this tower received a new name — Flying Lightning Tower.

Magic
Magic cards will receive all the improvements (from the runes) at the start of the mission, instead of receiving one star at the beginning of every difficult level.

UP marker
For your convenience, from now on the marker will be displayed in the following cases:
- If the card can be upgraded (it is possible to increase the quantity parameter or evolve the card).
- If there are enough shards to collect a card, and there is no such card in your collection yet.
- If there are enough shards to collect a card, and the number of such cards in your collection has not reached its maximum.

Bug Fixes
- Fixed the bug where, in some cases, the Creeps did not accumulate immunity to fear.
- Fixed the bug where the Snowball's slowdown effect interrupted the Time Warp's slowdown.
- Now, when you fuse or sell an even number of shards, the empty card will not disappear from your collection.

Defenders!
Update 1.8.7 has been installed, Primezone is ready to welcome you!

Optimization
- We’ve introduced several changes aimed at correcting the situation with lagging and freezing. Now, the game requires much less time to open a collection — even if it contains a lot of cards!
Hooray! :)

Hero Tokens Exchange
We've noticed that some high-level players complained about how difficult it was for them to collect Hero Tokens of low rarity, especially the Bronze ones.
So now, the Hiring tab on the ship has two new Packs — to exchange Hero Tokens.
- 1000 Bronze Tokens for 500 Silver ones
- 1000 Silver Tokens for 500 Gold ones

Changes in the Orders
- As part of the campaign to eradicate various game abuses, we’ve introduced changes to the mechanics of the Orders. Now, the completion progress is counted only in case of victory in a battle.
It means that the creeps killed in an unfinished battled or in a lost battle even using the needed Tower are not going to be considered in the order completion progress.

Changes in the Mythic Leagues Rewards
- In response to the requests of the Mythic League players, we’ve added Epic League Cards to the Mythic League Chests as a permanent item.
Complete your collection!

Interface Improvements
- Now, all new cards are displayed at the beginning of your collection. And the “NEW” indicator disappears after opening a full description of a card, or after clicking on a different tab.
- The card placement changes according to the same principle — either by clicking on the card or on a different tab.
- Sorting according to a slot in the Runes tab has been improved. Now, Tower Runes are displayed first (according to the decreasing rarity), after them — Spell Runes.
To make it more user-friendly, we’ve divided Tower and Spell Runes into different blocks.
- Now, the Rune interface, which opens after a card upgrade, displays runes in the same way as the Rune Collection interface — as one card with its total number.
- Moreover, now, after a card upgrade the runes that can’t be put in this card will not be displayed.
- The Ship interface has also been improved. Now, Talents in all groups have been sorted from the cheapest to the most expensive.
- Interfaces of both Resource and League Mines now have a button with a tip.

Fixes
As you already know, recently we сhanged Duelist’s bonus, so that this Hero wouldn’t introduce a significant imbalance to the game process.
Yet, an error was detected, which now has been rectified.
- Now, Duelist can replay a mission only once.

See you!

This hotfix is aimed at fixing errors with some Mythic Heroes which appeared after the latest update release.

Fixes
- Fixed the error with some Mythic Heroes’ ability affecting both Towers and Magic. It shouldn’t work like this
- Fixed the error with Lady Frost granting 2 additional improvements during battle to Festival Mortar and Petard Mortar.
- Fixed a number of wrong interactions between Vixen and Towers.
Now, the Hero correctly increases strength of effects OR damage of Towers.

Please note:
• For Towers which deal damage over time (Pumpkin Gun, Volcano, Hornet Hive, Snake Tower and others) Vixen increases “damage per second”.
• For Towers which have a chance of applying negative effects to creeps (stun, slowdown, fear etc.) Vixen increases their damage. We’ve done this so that these Towers could receive boost constantly.
• For Towers which always apply negative effects to creeps, Vixen increases effect’s number.

Some examples:
• In case of Pumpkin Gun, Vixen increases its damage from “pumpkins” and strength of slowdown — because slowdown is always applied (it doesn’t have the ability hit chance), and “pumpkins” deal damage over time.
• In case of Banshee Tower, Vixen increases its damage, since applying fear to creeps has the ability hit chance.
• In case of Spider Nest, Vixen increases its slowdown parameters.

See you in Primezone!

Welcome a new season!
- PvP-ratings have been reset, all resource mines now belong to the creeps. Primezone is ready to welcome brave Defenders who will prove in battles that they are the best!

Please note that TOP rating players will receive rewards at the end of the season:
• from 1 to 3 place — mythic chevron-card;
• from 4 to 10 place — legendary chevron-card;
• from 11 to 100 place — epic chevron-card.

New League Rewards!
- We continue to expand the reward assortment for league achievements!
Starting from this version, shards of League Deadly Prime Cannon and League Purifier will be added to the usual achievement rewards.

Event Interface Improvements!
- Event interface has become more user-friendly!
Now ALL REWARDS are displayed as a list (not just five latest)! This means that you can check a complete reward list, learn all information needed about any card, and track your progress easier — all this in the event window!
- Yes, you can click on any icon — click on any card to learn more about it
- Moreover, to make it more convenient for you, event currency is now displayed at the top of the window alongside stars.

Mythic Heroes Rebalance
- Now Mythic Heroes affect not only red cards, but all the rest of them! Of course, unless indicated otherwise in a Hero description.
We did this to make battle patterns more diverse and to not limit players with a certain rarity level of Tower and Magic cards.
- Consequently, the following pairs of Heroes cannot be hired at the same time: Nosferatu — Quarrier, Wendigo — Da’Ka, Trickster — Highlander.

Other Improvements
- To eliminate unpleasant moments when you accidentally sell your card, we’ve improved the Multisell mode. Now, if you turn on this mode card highlight automatically stops.

Fixes
- Fixed error with Incombustible Blackthorn attacking flying creeps.
- Information about Incandescent Core being able to deal double damage to flying creeps has been added to its description.
- Fixed error with incorrect pricing for evolution for some League Towers.
- Fixed descriptions of two missions. Now, instead of «Win X Expert battles» and «Win X Epic battles» correct conditions are shown — «Win X Epic battles» and «Win X Legendary battles» respectively.
- Pop-up tips for League mines now show more understandable conditions of moving from one league to another.
- Fixed visual error with the active marker of new cards in a collection.

New League Cards
- With every update League Mines become more popular and interesting for players of all levels. The previous update introduced a chance to earn rating in all leagues and receive daily rewards for it, this update introduces new league cards.
Now in chests you can find, for example, shards of league Machinegun MK 2 and some other towers which have received “silver stars”.
Another great new feature — league magic! You heard it right, apart from shards of towers, in chests you can find shards of league Meteor and True Vision!
In the future updates we will add even more league cards: both for towers and spells. Collect them all!

Rune Interface Improved
- We’ve listened to your requests and now rune interface allows to sort “stones” by slots. The display of runes according to rarity will stay the same — from cyan to white. And to make it more convenient, first all runes for towers will be shown according to their slots, then — runes for spells.
- We have also changed the way identical runes are shown. Now such runes will be displayed as one card and their number will be shown under the card. Please note that the marker “NEW” will appear only if you receive a completely new rune. If you add the runes that you already have, the marker won’t appear.

Improved Card Sorting
- Towers and spells can now be sorted by their basic rarity (color). In this case cards will be displayed in the following way: basic rarity (from the rarest to the least rare) → current rarity → card level → name.
Improved Interface of the Shop
- Now, in the random shop you can open a card window, where you can check complete information about the card and buy the item.
- To make it faster and more convenient to refresh random shop’s pages, we have removed the pop-up window asking for a confirmation to change slots.
- We have also added new interface features, now you can instantly see the amount of your currency in the window where you can spend it. For example, the Hiring tab now shows the number of Bronze, Silver, and Gold tokens. And players of level 90 will see the number of red crystals.

Other Interface Improvements
- To make it more convenient for you to manage your cards, we added buttons Fuse Locked and Shared to the main collection menu. Sharing your cards with friends on Facebook and protecting them from accidentally selling or fusing together has become easier and faster!
- The Attack button has become “smarter” and learned new useful tricks. Now if there are no active missions on the map, but there are some unexplored territories, pressing the Attack button will make your ship move towards the unexplored area.
- And the last change in the interface — small but cool Now by opening a chest you will instantly see the number of shards you’ve received for each card!

Fixes
- Fixed descriptions of various cards, including rune cards.
- Fixed errors in effects and mechanics of some runes.
- Runes for towers, and not only for spells, are given as a daily reward for league rating.
- Fixed an error which caused Quarrier not to increase health of towers.
- Rune prices in the new interface correspond with the prices in the old one.
- We renamed the Mastery Rune for towers Gift Rune so it doesn’t get confused with the Mastery Rune for spells.

New Season Begins!
The new season in Defenders 2 has begun!

PvP ratings were reset and creeps took over all resource mines.
The Prime Zone is ready to meet brave Defenders who will soon vie for the title of the best warrior!

Players who occupy the top of the rating will receive the following rewards:

places from 1 to 3—a mythic chevron card;
places from 4 to 10—a legendary chevron card;
places from 11 to 100—an epic chevron card.
League Mines and Battles
The new Season brings more interesting league battles that will suit all the players—even beginners who are just getting their foot on the rating ladder! From now on, you can enter the league battle as soon as the first league mine unlocks. Moreover, you can get daily rewards for your achievements (just like the rewards for regular PvP rating)!

Your reward is various runes. The higher your rating position, the greater the reward!
Also, each day of the week corresponds to a certain slot. For example, on Monday you get a first-slot rune, on Tuesday, a second-slot and so on.

You can claim your daily rewards in the menu of league mines, in the Rewards tab.

Rating points are calculated on the same principle in all the leagues:

points are awarded after every single competition and in every single mine; then they are added to the total rating;
players in the red area don't receive PvP points;
players in the blue area receive the number of points equal to the reached mine level;
players in the green zone receive the number of points equal to the reached mine level + 20%.
We also slightly tweaked the global map interface: the indicator of available mines (as well as mines where you occupy the red area) now goes out after you review the corresponding tabs. However, it will be displayed again as you relog into the game. This way you can keep track of every change.

Rebalances
Several new runes now grant higher characteristics to towers and spells.
Night Queen no longer eliminates disasters. Instead, she adds anomalies to the map. This change will diversify your tactics as you complete the missions. After all, even one disaster is enough to significantly influence your decisions and the battle course.
As we promised, Duelist's ability was slightly changed. Now Duelist has a certain chance to activate a bonus mission. This chance depends on the mission difficulty and the Hero's level. Since the Hero was balanced, you can find him in the chests again.
Slow value in the Time Warp card became 5 times higher—up to 450 (instead of 90).

Interface
Following your feedback, we changed the "Battle!" button on the global map.
It became smaller and less distracting Additionally, we removed the indicator with the number of available PvE missions.

Fixes
Prices for collection expansion have changed.
Flaming Cannon now properly brings flying creeps to the ground.
Colony of bats can no longer cleanse creeps' invisibility. It can't see monsters hidden in fog but prevents the damaged creeps from becoming invisible.
Fixed counters for Slothcat and Pollywogs. Colony of bats is no longer showed as their counter tower.
Fixed a visual bug when a PvP reward notification showed near the Quests tab
Exchange rate of stars for silver is now always updated and correct
Fixed descriptions of Heroes who slow down creeps. They now display accurate values instead of %.
Fixed several inaccuracies in the rune descriptions.
Short description of towers was enlarged. It now shows values that were previously displayed in the full description only.

Runes:
- A new rune interface was added! Find it in the collection menu, where the Feeders tab used to be. Managing runes is easier than ever!
You asked a lot—we listened and added the possibility to merge all available for upgrade runes at once! There's also a new multisell function.
- Number of runes refreshes automatically after the merging.
- Introducing new runes! They will make your collection more diverse and suitable for cards of any role. The rune choice for each slot became broader. There are new double and even most rare triple runes!
To ease the collection process for you, we've prepared a new event where you can win these brand-new runes. The event starts with the update.

Price Reduction and Better Premium:
- Prices for all the chests are 5-6 times lower! For instance, 10 legendary chests cost only 150 stars (instead of 900). Note: now all chests for stars are sold as boosters of 10 chests.
- Star-for-silver exchange is 10 times more profitable! You can now exchange 1 Star for 1000 Silver (instead of 100)! Yet, prices in Silver remain the same
- Active Premium now doubles not only battle-reward chests but also those received in the league competitions.

Mines:
- New tab in the league mine menu—Rewards. It's here for a reason: from now on, you can get runes for your league achievements EVERY DAY!
- Participation in league rating becomes possible as soon as at least one league mine unlocks. Rating points are calculated on the same principle in all the leagues.
- The circle color in the Mines tab of the league menu now matches the color of the area you entered.
- The league PvP icon now displays the number of mines where you occupy the red area.
- The menu of the resource mines became clearer. It now includes the following tabs: Mines—a new tab to look through all available mines and go to the right one; Rating—a tab with the world PvP rating; Rewards—the PvP tab that used to be in the quests.
- The PvP icon also displays the number of mines, captured by opponents.

Rebalances:
- We continue to fight with abusing mechanics, including the circling-creeps-strategy.
- If you stun creeps with any tower or spell, they get bonus resistance to the effect, stacking up to complete immunity.
- The slow mechanics were changed: 100% slow reduces the creeps' speed by half but effects from different sources can sum up. The highest possible slow remains the same—x10 slow (when the index reaches 900%).
- We reconsidered the confuse mechanics. Now it's called fear/flee. Feared creeps flee in the opposite direction. Successful fear grants the creeps bonus resistance to this effect.
- Heroes became stronger: Da'Ka, Lightning Master, Aviator, Maiden, Mimi, Dryad, Cryo, Shadow, Fire Fox, Tearaway, Vryl, Cannoneer, Archer, S.Putnik, and Stalker.

Miscellaneous:
- The home screen has a new button—To Battle! It shows the number of active PvE missions. Select it to go to the nearest available battle location.
- Several icons can now be displayed next to a player's nickname in the chat.
- Feeders are displayed in the corresponding Tower and Spells tabs.

Fixes:
- The Aim Tower range is correctly displayed.
- Tower of Chaos no longer stops attacking creeps for no apparent reason.
- Indestructible Idol now deals x4 damage to underground creeps in comparison to ground creeps. The tower no longer attacks flying and invisible creeps but can deal damage to totems.
- Colony of bats no longer stops attacking creeps for no apparent reason.
- Fixed a visual bug, showing mythic content in the window with the possible contents of a legendary chest.

New:
- Now the league rating tooltip displays all conditions for moving to the higher league.

Fixes:
- Players can get promoted early to a higher league even if there are few members in the mine.
- Levels of ship upgrades do not exceed the maximum.
- The bug with collecting of red chests from league mines is fixed.
- With the maximum upgrade of ship cabins 28 cells for Heroes are now open.

- We are introducing the system of seasons to Defenders 2! Take part in battles, fight your way up the leaderboard, and earn unique rewards: only 100 best players will receive special prizes! PvP rating will reset as the seasons start, meaning everybody will stand a chance to win!
- Season rewards were added to the game: chevron cards that grant special titles, visible to everybody in the chat! They also grant special bonuses to their owners.
- The League system reworked. The red area is now for players with no victories, the blue — at least 1 victory, and the green is for the best 3 players. Rewards for the blue area were improved while red chests were cut to 1 Silver. To enter the next league, player now must enter the green zone and win a certain number of times - to prevent situations with getting into too difficult leagues.
- We are introducing the new league — Mythic League! Its rewards correspond to its name: valuable red crystals that can be exchanged for mythic chests. Mythic League has its own PvP rating.
- Learn more about the seasons, new league system, and Mythic League on facebook.com/pg/PrimeWorldDefenders.
- Mythic chests in the shop are available from level 90. New "red" type of content was meant for high-level players who’ve already collected all the cards, so they could experience new tactical horizons. However, — judging by our statistics and your feedback — mythic content has led to an issue: even legendary cards are getting irrelevant too fast. To fix this, we are making mythic content available at higher levels. Note: players of levels 70–89 who already have red cards won't lose them.
- We are announcing a fight with abusing mechanics that destroy the interest of the game. 2 first changes are coming now:
• Ship Crane reworked. From now on, HP of the base will always restore by 1 heart per minute and the number of additional lives will be limited: 1–5 hearts per battle, depending on the Ship Crane upgrade. This is our first step towards a complete solution of the problem with the “strategy” of making the creeps circle round the battlefield.
• The Help me function (help from friends) was giving an unfair advantage, allowing to farm valuable rewards, which was damaging the in-game balance. As we introduce the system of seasons and rating reset, we blocked the Help me function.
- We fixed a bug with an unlimited number of stars for ads, so the Free Stars option is back in the shop!
- We reduced the number of available simultaneous battles on the map as a part of balance changes. Now, up to 9 arenas can be available on default: 3 Assaults, 3 Hunts, and 3 Raids. Each mode has common, epic, and legendary difficulty. We also increased the highest upgrade level of Aeronautics from 6 to 10. Now, when the skill is fully upgraded, the number of available arenas is increased to 18. Besides, since Duelist became much more valuable in the new conditions, he is temporarily unavailable to get in Hero Packs or through level up.
- The effects of Beautification and Warlord were swapped. Now Beautification grants bonus experience when fusing any cards while Warlord affects Hero cards only.
- Now, all the Ship upgrades are divided into 4 groups: common, special, rare, and epic. The higher the group, the more expensive the upgrade and the more time it takes. Also, it affects on what account levels upgrades are available.
- The daily, weekly, and special offers moved to the main shop. The calendar icon on the global map now summons the list of daily rewards.
- Silver packs are changed and now are of 1k, 10k and 100k Silver. Yet, the rate of Silver against Stars is the same: 1 Star = 100 Silver.
- The notification on the ship icon now shows only the number of available current upgrades.
- The buttons of the ship and league battles are swapped. You can now see your season rating near the button of league battles.
- The Skip animation option now applies to Hero Packs too.
Read the full patchnotes at our pages in social networks.

New:
- Four new towers and two new spells entered the game. Some of them are intended for level 15–69 players while others for level 70 and above. Players of levels 15–69 can get Mermaid's Tower (epic), Indestructible Idol (legendary), and Tornado Generator (legendary) through the event. Players of level 70 and above can find shards of the Minigun tower in mythic chests as well as the Golden Dust Barrier and Poisonous Swamp spells. These cards are also attainable through the event for high-level players.
- Reward system became better! Now the players have a certain chance to receive high-level trophies. The higher the difficulty of the arena, the higher the chance! For example, you can conquer a 10 level legendary arena and receive a reward, meant for level 15 or even 30.
Moreover, players of level 75 and above will have a good chance to hit the jackpot! They can earn the highest possible reward (two legendary chests) for simply completing six difficult levels instead of 20. With the premium account, the reward will rise to four legendary chests right after the first fight!
- The contents of epic and legendary chests became more valuable since we shifted the emphasis from resources to cards. Now, chests contain significantly more shards while the number of essences and Silver slightly dropped. This way, collecting towers and spells will be much easier!
- Similar to league towers, certain towers with different rarity but the same mechanics can no longer be equipped at the same time. The following pairs are now mutually exclusive: Poison Shooter — Deadly Poison Shooter, Prime Cannon — Deadly Prime Cannon, Machinegun — Machinegun MK 2, Frost Tower — Frost Guard, Accursed Tower — Accursed Bastion. Also, you can't hire new mythic Minigun together with Machinegun and Machinegun МК2, and the Golden Dust Barrier spell with Stone Shield.
- Gifts for entering the game became better. We substituted some specific cards for random cards of the same rarity to diversify the trophies you receive. Days of premium account are no longer given once for three days. Instead, you will receive one day of premium three times (for new players, one day five times). From now on, you can enjoy the advantages of the gift subscription several times per month instead of one!
- The ship icon now shows the number of available upgrades.
- We moved game settings to the player's profile menu, under the Change Name button.
- To clean up the global map interface, we removed the Facebook binding button. You can still find it in the settings! Note: you can no longer invite Facebook users into the game but the change doesn't influence the system of friends.
- The Expert difficulty level is renamed to epic, and epic, to legendary.
- We continue to balance the game economics to keep the value of in-game currencies up to date. This time, the changes refer to Stars: you can no longer receive them for watching ads. Moreover, some players were systematically finding ways to get around the restrictions and receive the unlimited number of the premium currency, gaining an unfair advantage over honest players. Yet there are still a lot of other ways to get Stars for free: leveling up, entering the game regularly, and daily for PvP rating. You can also find Stars in chests around the map.

Fixes:
- The game no longer freezes when Glowworms appear.
- FPS no longer drops when Slothcat appears.
- Fixed inaccuracies in the description of Da’Ka, Highlander, Mage, Witch, and Quarrier.
- Vixen now affects Christmas tree and Snowball.
- Notifications on your unreviewed offers are no longer displayed near the shop icon.
- In the shop, a rare chest now has a timer that shows the time, left before the next free chest for ads.

Fixes:
- For several towers, fixed the number of shards, required to create cards.

New:
- 5 new towers added to the game. Players of levels 5–69 can get Underground Predator (epic), Flying Spray (legendary), and Sniper Rifle (legendary) during the event. Players of level 70 and above can find shards of Festival Mortar and Petard Mortar (both are mythic) in mythic chests. Also, you can win these towers in the event for high-level players.
- Shop became more convenient and up-to-date.
- Additionally, all six offers in the random shop now unlock immediately and not after you reach certain levels.
- The ship got a new tab: see Hiring instead of Tuning. Here you can buy Hero packs (they are no longer available in the shop).
- Switching to the multisell mode became easier. To activate it, simply click on the coins icon above the inventory counter. Note: the icon is clickable only if you selected a whole card, not a shard! Long press no longer activates the multisell mode.
- From now on, all the rewards you receive upon winning in league competition are much more valuable! We've drastically increased the number of card shards you get. By the way, we have not forgotten about their rarity! Now it matches the current player's league accurately.
- Spring is coming and Lady Frost's powers weaken. Now, the Heroine grants 1–4 upgrades to mythic towers instead of 2–5.
- But the power of Ascension, Ingenuity, and Skill Runes became stronger. We decreased it in one of the previous balance updates but received your feedback and decided to meet you halfway. Now it's 10% instead of 5% (but not 20% as it used to be) — we hope this will be the golden mean!

Fixes:
- Runes of all types now drop from Special, Rare, Epic, and Legendary chests.
- Shards of Shiny Crest no longer drop from Epic and Legendary chests.
- If you fuse runes or sell cards in the multisell mode, rune/card counters update automatically.
- Description of mythic All-Purpose Gears now correctly displays the tower rarity.
- Description of Power Runes is now correct for all towers.

Tweaks of the reward system:
- Quality of the received chests now increases as you pass difficult waves. The further you progress, the better the chests. Please note: you will receive the reward only once when you complete all the waves.
- At the same time, premium allows you to receive a double reward of the next difficulty (instead of common).
- Also, the initial difficulty of the arena influences the chest quality.
- Using stars to change the reward is no longer possible.

Chest tweaks:
- Now chests contain guaranteed cards or shards of the corresponding rarity. For example, a legendary chest will always grant you legendary shards.

This way a total number of chests for victories will decrease but their quality will rise.

Premium:
- Considering the increased value of the premium account, its cost increased too.

Rune interface tweaked:
- Large castle icons on the runes have been replaced by smaller ones and shifted to the bottom left corner. Castles no longer overlay the runes so it's now easier to navigate.

Fix:
- Fixed an issue preventing you from completing a task for the Christmas tree tower.

- Added a new option to settings: Skip chest animation. If the option is on, you won't see the animation of opening a chest — the face of a card will be displayed right away. If you receive more than one chest for a victory, rewards from each following chest will be displayed automatically when you press the Take button. Note that the option only works for new chests you receive as a battle reward, mythic chests, and event chests. The skip option won't work for chests on the global map, Hero Packs, and league chests.
- New contents in chests that are granted for victories: 1) players of level 8 and above receive runes instead of feeders (level 1-7 accounts receive tower and spell cards instead of feeders); 2) the number of prize keys is reduced to 1-2; 3) all cards except common and special ones are granted as shards.

Fixes:
- You can now manually skip the animation of opening a chest on a map on the iPhone 7 and newer devices.
- The game no longer freezes if you open the mine rating after a battle in a league mine.

New:
- 4 mythic cards have been added into the game: 2 Towers (Christmas tree and Snowball), 1 Hero (Lady Frost), and the first «red» spell in Defenders 2 — Time warp! Please note that this content is made for high-level players, meaning that it gets unlocked only once you reach level 70. You can get mythic cards, including the new ones, through opening special boosters that are sold for red crystals at the Shop. Level 70+ players can get them for participating in the event that began at the same time when this update was released. Players below level 70 can get other useful prizes during the event — the ones that are more relevant at the early stage of the game.
- 1 legendary Hero added into the game (Snow Maiden). At the current state, you can get her only by participating in the event!
- The reward system has been reworked. Now you get the same prizes for victories in both PvE- and PvP-modes — chests with 5 random trophies. Among them, you can find Silver, Essences, Keys, Feeders, Runes, Tower or Spell cards or their shards. The type of the chests and the rarity of the rewards you get depends on your account level. Players without an active Premium subscription will receive 1 or 2 chests per victory, and the ones who own it will get from 2 to 4 chests per victory. This way, you will be getting from 5 to 20 trophies for each win instead of 1-2!
- Shop assortment reworked. The following items are deleted from the game: Rare Booster, League Booster, Tower Booster, Spell Set, Counter Booster. Instead, we added Rare, Special, Epic, and Legendary Chests (the ones you get for victories). Rewarded ads now grant a Rare Chest instead of Rare Booster but only to players below level 70. Limited to one reward per hour with up to five rewards per day. We also changed rewards for the one-time purchase of 10 Boosters/Chests.
- Improved multiple sale mode work. You can no longer sell locked cards.
- Improved Spider Nest effects.
- Skill, Ascension & Ingenuity Runes effects were balanced out. Now, upon upgrading during the fight, they increase the range of several towers by 5% instead of 20%.

Fixes:
- If inserted into League Sky Eye, Skill Rune increases the tower's range instead of damage it deals.
- Improved English localization.

New:
- New mythic cards in the game — 3 towers (of chaos, aim, and order) and 1 Hero (Chronicle). Quick reminder: this is high-level content that is why it unlocks only when your account reaches level 70. You can find new towers and the Heroine in special boosters for red crystals. Players of level 70 and above can earn crystals through the event that has started right with the release of the update. Players below level 70 can get other valuable prizes in this event — those more useful at the early stage of the game.
- From now on you can sell several cards at the same time. To do so, click on a card in the collection menu and hold it until you see a suggestion to select other cards. Select all necessary cards and/or shards and press "Sell". Please note that runes are still sold by the piece!
- Before the battle starts, you can now see which towers and spells the player has tasks for. Such cards have a green line saying "TASK" in the top right corner.
- Chat no longer scrolls down automatically when you get a new message from another player or system notification.
- You can now hire Trickster and Highlander at the same time.
- The event window now has a "Skip the chest animation" option.
- Cost of updating tasks is tweaked. Now it rises from 15 to 195 stars — by 30 stars with each new update. When a new day starts, the cost is reduced to its minimum — 15 stars.
- Counter Boosters no longer contain feeders for legendary cards. In return, each booster is guaranteed to contain an epic amplifier.
- The Hunt mode no longer grants legendary All-Purpose Gears and legendary Spell Amplifiers (the most it grants is epic ones).

Fixes:
- Tasks are now available for league towers.
- Duelist grants the number of additional assaults that is displayed on his card.
- You can no longer insert runes that block the way of flying and underground creeps into Ghost tower.
- Banshee tower's description now displays the Lucky Rune effect.
- Creeps' cards now display the Defender effect.
- If you insert Skill Rune in Sky Eye, the correct description will be displayed.
- The Monopolist and Who needs spells? achievements for Apple account are now granted when a player earns the third star in Feats instead of the first one.

New:
- We've been carefully following your comments regarding mythic cards - it has been interesting to see and read what are you thinking about them, — and noticed that you wanted Ghost tower to be more interesting. So, we've added one more property to it — now it can land the flying creeps down! We've also updated the tower's description by stating that it can spot invisible foes.
- What is more, we've revised the quality of cards the players of the starting levels receive in the 'Hunt' mode. Now newbies can get more special cards!

Fixes:
- Mythic towers are stated as counters in the creep cards.
- You can not put lucky runes into Spider nest.
- You can not put power runes into Banshee tower, Pumpkin gun, and Spider nest.
- Pumpkin gun no longer burns the remains of monsters out.
- Curse spell's damage does not get reduced upon leveling it up.
- Colony of bats' DOT is now displayed correctly, its animation after build is fixed, and its role is stated correctly in the description.
- Trickster's description changed: we've added info about the fact that the Hero also upgrades Spider nest's rate of fire.
- Fixed the mistakes in the role description of Highlander and Trickster.
- You can no longer find legendary all-purpose gears in counter boosters. However, they are still given as gifts when you buy 10 counter boosters at once.

New:
- New, — mythic, — rarity type added. The starting point of mythic card evolution is 6. You can obtain them from special boosters. These boosters can be purchased at the shop using special essence — red crystals. At the moment, you can get those only during special events. Please note that mythic towers, heroes, and red crystals are accessible only for level 70+ players.
- Game manual has been added into the game. It will help new players to faster adjust to game features. To open it up, please click on the book icon on the global map.
- Mimi, Soul Catcher, Sesha, Stalker, Maiden, and Fanatic can now be obtained from hero boosters at the shop.
- From now on, gold hero tokens are dropped from league chests instead of stars.

Fixes:
- You will now need the same type of essences that drop from the corresponding mines to enter league battles.

New:
- A new special resource for level 70+ players has been added into the game - red crystals. Soon you will be able to use them to purchase boosters with towers and heroes of the new, mythic rarity! In the nearest future, red crystals can be obtained during special events. The first one of them will become available pretty soon! Please keep in mind that the crystals won’t be displayed if your account level is below 70.

Fixes:
- Improved profanity filter work.
- The game is performing more stable on old devices.
- Fixed an issue that prevented players from helping their friends out in battles. Now you can assist friends up to 3 times a day.
- Daily rewards are now given to all players.

New:
- Text chat added into the game. To make it more comfortable for you, we made the chat regional. This way, you will see only the messages of those players who speak the same language as you do.
- Daily reward system, including rewards themselves, altered. Now you can see which gifts await you for regularly entering the game at any moment. Just tap on the calendar icon at the left part of the screen and proceed to the daily rewards tab.
- If you own Premium, you will now receive +50% exp for victories in battles.

Fixes:
- League Digging Hunter model is now correctly displayed on all maps.
- Event progress does not get wiped anymore.

New:
- 6 new Heroes added into the game! Each of them increases the characteristics of a certain Tower or Spell. But be cautious: you can not hire Fanatic and Healer at a time. The same goes for Soul Catcher and Faceless, and Mimi and Tearaway.
- 3 new league Towers added: Prime Injector, Purifier, and Horrifying Tower. You can obtain them only during the time limited event.
- 2 new languages support added: Japanese and Hindi.

Fixes:
- Fixed a number of in-game descriptions.
- Prime Arrester and Prime Thistle no longer gain bonus characteristics when merging.
- Now you can read full descriptions of the cards available at the daily rewards calendar.
- If the Hero cards are upgradable, ‘Up’ ribbon will be displayed above it.

New

- New Heroes can be obtained 2 ways: during the time-limited events or purchasing Hero Packs at the Shop. The latter may contain both Cards and Card Shards. You can receive more Shards by watching ads.
- New currency added, needed for purchasing Hero Packs - Tokens. They can be of 3 types: Gold, Silver, or Bronze. You can obtain them by selling Towers, Spells, or Heroes. The type of the Tokens you receive depends on the number of stars of the card you sell.

New
- Flying towers have appeared in Praya! They don't block the way for the monsters. Ground enemies pass under them, and air ones - over them. Each of the 5 new towers has a league version. By the way, league Sky Eye is the only tower capable of relocating to almost any point of the map!
- New limited time promotions grant you an opportunity to win various prizes: runes, keys, and, most importantly, - flying towers. Receive your rewards by spinning the Wheel of Fortune or fulfilling certain conditions. You can spin the Wheel using either stars or special currency, - Golem Hearts. You can get it for winning in battles, completing missions/tasks or find it in chests on the map. Golem Hearts are also given for watching ads.
- Now you can quickly upgrade towers by several levels at a time in battle. Click on the new icon in the radial menu, and the tower's gun will get upgraded to the maximum level, depending on the amount of Prime you have. The possibility to level up the old way, - by one level, - remains available.

New
- ‘Special’ icon has been relocated to the global map. By tapping on it, you will be able to see all the daily, weekly and special offers which are currently active.

level 2 - 100 thousand Prime (instead of 10 million),
level 3 - 1 million Prime (instead of 1 billion).

New

Shard may also drop from the League Boosters in case you reached Silver I and League III Leagues correspondingly.
- League Towers bonus changed. Now it is equal to a 20% boost of the main stat of the tower instead of a 10% damage boost. You can see which parameter is boosted right on the tower card.
- Tasks, which have the “Collect” button, are shown above all the rest.
- New tasks added for Prime Thistle and Shiny Crest.

Fixes:
- Now, the damage counter in the Towers and Spells cards displays the damage dealt to a single enemy over time correctly (DoT).
- When evolving League Towers and putting runes into them, damage boost is now displayed and counted correctly.
- Fixed an issue which caused the reduction of damage several towers dealt upon leveling up.

- Added Focus Runes for upgrading magic in fights. With them equipped, spells automatically level up each time the battle becomes harder, yet not higher than the value determined by runes. These runes can be won in ‘Assault’, purchased at the shop, or found in the chests on the map. - When you enter a level in a higher difficulty, the number of spells you can use in fight restores to the initial one. - Now 4 similar runes can be merged into the same one but of a rarer quality.
