Here Come the Juggernauts

Sorry for the wait, but starting tomorrow, Juggernauts will be able to participate in Dread War and earn influence. This is not because we hate Juggernauts -- if anything, they represent the hardest of the hardcore EpicDuelists, able to take down two foes singlehandedly! No, this was because of a boring technical reason. Since Juggernauts could only start battle from the Slayer and Influence is only earned by fighting on a War Objective screen, Juggernauts were locked by location on a non-Objective screen. We plan to remedy this by adding a Juggernaut button to the main interface, right next to 1v1 and 2v2. This should also give the feature some much-needed exposure. I'm sure many new duelists don't even know it exists!

Starting tomorrow, instead of battling from Slayer, Juggernauts (anyone owning Slayer's Silver or Gold Skull Cards) will be able to engage a Juggernaut battle from any screen! Sound good to you? I thought so!

Are you ready for Juggernauts?


Alignment matching

Rabblefroth is hard at work refining the Legion vs. Exile matchmaking system to heavily prioritize alignment when choosing opponents and allies for Duels. We understand that many are concerned that this change could make matches painfully slow to find and we are aware of this. Hopefully, with enough variables at our disposal we can easily fine-tune the system if matches are too slow or imbalanced.

As I'm writing this, Rabblefroth is still building and testing this feature. It is of the utmost importance that it be tested thoroughly so I'm not sure yet if it will go live tomorrow. Be sure to follow our Twitter feeds for the latest updates!


More Dynamic Objective Screens

To make the war feel more tactile, we've updated over 60 screens (including battle backgrounds) to show Legion or Exile content depending on the alignment controlling the War Objective. This gives us a tremendous amount of control for each screen -- we can even change the active content such as NPCs!

Administrator 11 just got busted!


Influence Tracking


I've seen a lot of questions on Twitter and in the forums about the specific numbers for each achievement level for the regional war achievements. Your questions can now be answered in our handy new influence tracker, accessible from the Delta V world map.

Just click this button!

From this new interface you will be able to see your current level of regional achievement as well as how many more points you need to achieve the next level!

I've got a long way to go!

We like this new system so much, that we are making it the start of a long-awaited revamp to the Achievement system.


Capture the Spirit!


In addition to the regional war achievements, we are introducing another evolving achievement: the War Objective Capture achievement! This achievement is awarded to players who participate in the capture of a War Objective up to an hour before the Objective is officially captured. Do you have enough conquering spirit to reach the highest level?

Add all the text in a quote and change the date since it's july 25 and not 26.

Finally jugg Buttom right next to 1v1 and 2v2. And new cheevo.




Mother1 -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/25/2013 21:15:25)

Hopefully this matching system doesn't go as badly as the first one did.

NDB -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 4:18:40)

I notice that on the achievement image there are Frysteland and Infernal Mine cheevos... Does that mean there are going to be new war objectives there??




The Incredible Hulk -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 4:48:04)

I'm very interested in capturing the spirit because atleast somehow it will make me play since I want that achievement. Looks like I'm going to join in a faction again...

And I can't wait till they bring back legion vs exile battle engine.




Scyze -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 4:49:54)

My dad lied! He said we were leaving to the UK on the 9th but noooh! It's earlier! :(


So, who's looking forward to this update?!

Wonder how the Juggernaut battle logo will be...




Ranloth -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 5:13:21)

Legion vs. Exile and Juggernaut seem the most interesting. Not sure if I wanna give up my 666 wins. .-.




Scyze -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 5:20:00)

No Trans, it's called being a chicken. Not willing to press a button... [:D]
You have 666 Juggernaut wins? O_O




martinsen5 -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 6:04:30)

God, I just hooope we will be getting the new Auxiliary weapons designed by Trizzz and Revontheus soon... (and that they have cores)

I don't get this..




Digital X -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 6:28:27)

From what I can gather, Mysterion, if a player participates in capturing a War Objective in the hour that it is completed in, they will be awarded the achievement.

For example: There is one hour left, and the player participates at the 30 minute mark, when the War Objective is captured the player will be awarded.


Edit: probably not worded the best way but I hope it is a little more understandable.




kosmo -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 6:46:05)

Mysterion, if you partecipate for atleast an hour to the capture of the objective you will get the archiviment, then it can reach an higher lvl maybe capturing more times obejectives or depending on areas.
For example you are a legionary, you fight for an hour in an objective controlled by exiles and capture it, you will get the archiviment.




Mysterion. -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 6:48:04)

But why do they say one hour left before it's captured?
A capture isn't taken over in time based but by players performance and influence?
How can they express it in time when its based on performance.

I don't understand squad from this.
I will just notice when I see a cheevo appearing in my cheevo page..





Ranloth -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 6:52:55)

There's simpler way to put it:

Assuming 1PM, Exile is winning the X War Objective.
Legion players are fighting to reclaim the X Objective.
It's 1:30PM and Legion is close to reclaiming the Objective.
At 1:50PM, Legion has managed to get the X War Objective back from Exiles.
All the Legion players who have participated between 12:50PM and 1:50PM at the X War Objective will get the achievement ("up to an hour before the Objective is officially captured")




CN2025 -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 6:55:35)

yay new cheevo . perfect timing to get my 2nd bluey star

What do you mean trans? Juggernaut wins are going to be reset?




Ranloth -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 7:12:27)

I want it to stay at 666, not fight and lose the number. If I win, it'll go up to 667. No way I would be able to get 666 back.




Mysterion. -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 7:38:42)

It's a symbolic number Hulk, number of the devil.




The Incredible Hulk -> RE: =ED= July 25th, 2013 - Here Come the Juggernauts (7/26/2013 7:44:30)

;O

Well I'd love to have 786 as my juggernaut wins. Going to go for it just for fun ^^
