• Reflect status effects of the same type no longer stack as they previously did in some unintended cases
• Fixed an issue with Titans where they could receive a resurrect buff. Now they no longer can receive resurrection buffs
• Fixed a visual issue where activating the hero roster filter while leveling up a costume would cause a slight overlap of tabs and panels in UI

New Alliance War Rule: Skyfire
Coming April 23, 2025

Our goal is to make sure that core game features like Alliance War stay fresh and dynamic, so we’re once again reviewing the current rotation of war rules. Each rule should be distinct and provide an enjoyable challenge to players that requires thinking about a different approach, and no rule is guaranteed to be permanent. Dragons bring a whole new aspect to Alliance War, and this rule could replace one of the existing batch that isn’t offering the desired balance of difficulty and fun.

• Assist Dragons are enabled for all teams in this Alliance War. Each Dragon can be used once when attacking.
• Attacking Assist Dragons are more powerful than defending Assist Dragons.
• Attacking Assist Dragons gain 10% more Spirit Bonuses, 10% more Damage and 10% more Healing each time you use them.
• Attacking Assist Dragons gain mana when shields of the respective element are matched.
• Defending Assist Dragons gain a small amount of mana each turn and when Heroes of the respective element are hit.

• Trainer Heroes
• Low rarity heroes

BONUS:

V79 Quality of Life Changes

Dear Community,

Version 79 of Empires & Puzzles includes several little changes that should make playing easier and more rewarding. We’ve made it quicker to refill your resources, added more reward pulls to Titan Bounty, updated Epic Hero Summon Gate, and made it faster to train 4* and 5* Dragons!

Resource bundle usage
Refill your resources more quickly using the bundles in your inventory.

tap on a resource bar to open a new menu

the menu lists how many of each size bundle you have in your inventory with a handy “Use” button next to them

tap the “Use” button to top up directly from the menu!

Resource Bundle usage
More Titan Bounty draws
The number of loot draws for Titan Bounty rewards on high-rarity Titans has been increased by 2. Regular Titans now have 3 draws and Rare Titans have 4! The odds for some rewards have been distributed across all draws, and chances to receive a food bundle, an iron bundle, and a 5* Battle Item have been added.

Epic Hero Summon updates
Epic Hero Summon will include a daily featured Legendary Hero, among other changes detailed in V79 release notes. The refreshed Summon Gate will go live on Sept. 8, after the Kalevala Seasonal event ends.

Faster Dragon training
Levels 9 and 10 of the Hatchery building in Dragonspire have been updated to require 2 fewer days to train 4* and 5* Dragons. This change also removes the chance to train Ancient Dragons, which had been mistakenly included in the training pool.

New training times:
Epic Dragons - 2 days

Legendary Dragons - 4 days

We hope you enjoy these changes, and look forward to your feedback on this and other features!

[Saphirra]

For many years, @ Zanémarossi  has kept up with the Patch notes, and is the one who supplied me with the information to post these.  Thank you @ Zanémarossi

[Saphirra]

For those who see this, congrats, you can spot invisible text. The purpose of this is to put the v70-v79 back ahead of the v60-v69.
