Relics, Doom Tower and Artifact Chests

We've listed the three quality-of-life and reward changes first, since most players will notice them straight away.

Relic-related Objectives in CvC Tournaments: the new Objectives add requirements focused on crafting and upgrading Relics.
Doom Tower Auto-Climb Improvements: when you battle in the Doom Tower on Auto-Climb mode, the reward window now displays all earned rewards. Before, it showed only 10 unique rewards.
Artifact Chest Rebalance: the content of Dragon, Ice Golem and Fire Knight Artifact Chests has been improved. So have the Elite versions of those chests, plus Exquisite, Magnificent and Supreme Artifact Chests. The change includes chests that are already in your Inbox, and you now have a higher chance of finding Artifacts of a greater Rank and Rarity.

Faction Wars Hard Mode Rebalance

The difficulty across Stages 1-21 of Faction Wars on Hard Difficulty has been fine-tuned. The adjustments touch enemy HP, ATK and DEF in the Dark Elves, Orcs, Banner Lords, High Elves and Ogryn Tribes Crypts.

The enemy lineups and Boss mechanics remain the same, so you don't need to change your strategy.

Champion Rebalance

Skartorsis

Skill 1 - Hand of Doom: the chance of stealing 1 random buff from each enemy goes from 30% to 50%. The skill also applies a Buff Spread effect, taking 1 random buff from this Champion and placing it on all allies.
Skill 2 - Command: the Increase C. RATE buff is replaced. It now places a 50% Increase ATK buff and a 50% Increase ACC buff on all allies for 2 turns, and it decreases the cooldowns of all ally skills, except this Champion's, by 1 turn.
Skill 3 - Rebirth: it now revives all allies with 50% HP and 50% Turn Meter. It also removes all debuffs from all allies, then heals them by 25% of this Champion's MAX HP, plus an additional 5% for each debuff removed from them. The skill can be used even if there are no dead allies.
Ascended Skill 3 - Rebirth: the same revive applies. Allies are healed by 25% of this Champion's MAX HP and their Turn Meters are filled by 10%, with an additional 5% heal and 10% Turn Meter for each debuff removed.
New Skill - Mortal Momentum: at the end of this Champion's turn, it fills their Turn Meter by 10%, or by 20% if at least one ally is dead.

Kurosa the Covetous - Base Form

Skill 1 - Surge of Chaos: it now restores 10% of each ally's destroyed MAX HP, and the healing value is increased.
Skill 2 - Anything for Siroth: the shield value is increased.
Skill 3 - Running Rampant: the buffs are reworked so that a 25% buff and a second buff go to all allies for 2 turns, while a further buff goes on this Champion for 2 turns.
Skill 5 - Collector of Pawns: this Champion is now immune to True Fear and one other debuff. Whenever they transform into their Alternate Form, they are fully healed.

Kurosa the Covetous - Alternate Form

Skill 1 - Destroyer of All: the damage multiplier is increased.
Skill 2 - Icon of Havoc: the skill still steals all buffs from all enemies before attacking. Bosses now cannot resist its effects, and the skill increases its damage by 15% for each buff stolen. The damage multiplier is also increased.
Skill 3 - Ruthless Agent: it now removes all debuffs from this Champion first. It then places a 15% buff, a 30% Increase C. RATE buff and a 50% Increase ATK buff for 3 turns, and these buffs are protected. True Fear now lasts 2 turns instead of 1 and Bosses cannot resist it. The skill still grants an Extra Turn.
Skill 5 - Vile Murderess: this Champion is now immune to True Fear and one other debuff. The skill deals 15% more damage for each dead ally and each enemy under one of those debuffs. Each critical hit fills their Turn Meter by 15%.
