Greetings, Heroes! Today, we would like to introduce you to a new type of battle that will be added to the game very soon – Province Raids. You will be able to join forces with four other heroes and challenge the invaders who are encroaching on the province. As you progress through the game, you will complete conditions that will allow you to unlock cooperative provinces. Cooperative provinces will not require you to complete them immediately. You can return later and complete them at any time that is convenient for you. For players who have already completed the storyline, these provinces will be an excellent addition to daily and weekly quests, in which they will have the opportunity to prove their level of skill and tactics. To start a cooperative province run, you need to visit the corresponding portal. After using the portal, you can select the players you want to invite to your group. Before the run begins, you will be able to see: • the number of creatures that each hero can bring with them to the province, • the reward you will receive after successfully completing the province, • the time you have to complete the province, • and most importantly - the number of battles you need to win to complete the province. You will not be able to replenish your troops in cooperative provinces. It is advisable to coordinate your actions and choose the enemies that need to be defeated first, as their recovery time is different. When completing cooperative provinces, you may encounter additional difficulties, as you are likely to encounter an enemy that can only be defeated by a specific type of hero. For example, you may encounter an enemy that will be much easier to defeat with a hero with only melee or ranged creatures, or with heroes of the Alliance of Light or Necromancers. You need to constantly adapt your tactics and coordinate your group's actions while you are in the raid. Only when the required number of enemies have been defeated, and they have not recovered, will your team be able to receive the reward for completing the province. You can extend the recovery time of defeated enemies with resources or seals. This will give you and your team a little more time before the enemy troops recover and you have to defeat them again. A few extra minutes can be really important, as there is a certain time within which the province must be completed. If the time runs out, you will lose and not receive the reward. While you are in a cooperative province, you should not use the portal to exit it. Using the portal after the run has begun will remove you from the group, and you will not be able to receive the reward. Only the bravest and most skilled heroes, who have decided to conquer an entire province together, and who remain loyal to their group until all enemies have been defeated, will receive truly fantastic rewards. In summary, the main rules and mechanics of the new cooperative province runs are: • Cooperative provinces are available from level 10, but they are mainly intended for players of level 30. • Provinces are designed for five players. • Players will have to fight enemies one on one. • There is a time limit within which all enemies must be defeated. After the timer reaches zero, the cooperative run will end, and if the conditions are not met, you will not receive the reward. • Some enemies will have requirements for heroes, requiring specific sets of creatures and hero classes to defeat them. For example, a magic hero or a sword hero, a hero with an army consisting only of creatures with ranged attacks, or a hero with only melee creatures, etc. • Enemies will respawn, some faster than others. • You will be able to increase the respawn time of enemies using resources or seals. We look forward to your comments and questions about the new provinces.
