[Info] New Dimension Update: Khalderun 2020.12.10

 

Greetings from the Summoners War Dev Team!

 

It's already the last month of 2020.

Summoners War has gone through many events in this year - Dimension Predator, Steel Fortress, Punisher's Crypt, Artifact, Siege Battle Tournament, Collaboration, Repeat Battle and more.

 

2020 will be remembered as a special year in which we were able to grow further by improving and polishing various parts of Summoners War. All of these were possible because of our Summoners! We'd like to thank everyone for the interest, support and feedback.

We know our team needs to work harder to make the game more fun, and we promise to do our best to provide more enjoyment in the future.

 

This note will be the last developer's note of this year!

We are excited to talk about the new update that all of you have been waiting for - the new dimension!

 

We'll get started right away.

 

<New Dimension: Khalderun>

 


 

The fourth dimension is called "Khalderun".

Dimension Khalderun is a land of the dead, filled with dark energy that has no trace of life. It's said that Summoners can witness souls wandering on the verge of death.

 


 

[Dimension Khalderun] Details

- It consists of two dungeons - Dimension Dungeon and 2nd Awakening Dungeon.

- New 2nd Awakening (hereinafter 2A) Monsters are [Howl] and [Grim Reaper].

- The entrance condition of Dimension Khalderun is [to include Monsters of each type].

: A new entrance condition! In this dimension, Summoners must include Monsters of four types, [Attack, Defense, HP and Support] to battle.

 

Now, let's talk about the new 2A Monsters!

 

<Dimension Khalderun: 2nd Awakening>

 

Please take a look at the images of 2A Howl and Grim Reaper, first!

 

 

 

As you know, 2A Monsters not only get their appearance upgraded but also their skills.

We would like to show you the skills of 2A Monsters of one attribute.

 


 

Please stay tuned for the update to check out the rest of the skills!

We thought Thrain the Dark Grim Reaper could be useful climbing up the Trial of Ascension (Hell) with his Continuous Damage and Stun effects.

Lulu, who is already showing great potential in the Special League and Siege Battle 4-star bases, is ready to shine in more diverse contents.

 

2A Dungeon will have the stages with the following attributes;


 

Now that we went over the 2A Monsters, let's discuss more about the Dimension Dungeon.

 

<Dimension Khalderun: Dimension Dungeon>

 

Take a look at the image of the new Ancient Guardian, first!

 


 

The boss looks spooky and powerful, right?

The boss has Dark attribute and skills that brings out fear that will gradually take life of monsters.

 

Here's the list of basic skills of the boss.

 


 

Did you notice the phrase [Aura of Death] from the skill descriptions?

A new effect called [Aura of Death] will be added to the battle against the Ancient Guardian in Dimension Khalderun.

 

What's the [Aura of Death]?

It's the effect that increases in proportion to the amount of damage you receive from the Ancient Guardian and Minions.

The amount of damage inflicted to enemies decrease and the amount of damage received from enemies increase, depending on the degree of [Aura of Death]. The [Aura of Death] can be reduced through HP recovery.

 

The more the Aura of Death accumulates, the stronger the effect power gets, so it will be important to utilize Monsters who can recover HP.

We have prepared an image of a screen that's currently under development for a better understanding. You will see the screen below when the Aura of Death is piled up.

 


 

The Ancient Guardian will summon minions on its both sides in each phase, and these minions have an ability to combine their skills.

The following Monsters will be summoned in each phase.

 


 

Could you guess which special skills they will use?

We will share the special skills of phase 1 as a sneak peek.

 


 

Lastly, we will talk about the rewards you will be getting when you clear the battle against the Ancient Guardian.

 

- Summoners can get the following items as battle rewards for clearing the Khalderun Dimension Dungeon.


 

This is all we have for today's dev note!

 

The content discussed in this note is planned to be released via next update, so please stay tuned.

We're excited to see how Summoners will utilize the new 2A Monsters. We believe the new dimension and the new entrance condition will allow you to come up with new and interesting strategy of your own!

 

The developer's note is intended to help you understand the upcoming updates in advance. 

As development and testing are still underway, we ask you to understand that the actual update may be different from what we have shared in this note.

 

We have many new things planned for 2021, so please stay tuned for them and we will be back with the next developer's note.

 

Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!
