Update 89 - Guild Conquest

Minion Masters!


Today, we’re expanding the existing Guilds system with our new Guild Conquest feature. Guild Conquest is where the best will rise to the top, receiving both prestige and rewards as you work with your friends to show everyone that you have the best Guild around!

Guild Conquest

  • This new Guilds feature allows Guilds to compete against each other for prestige and a top prize via a new Guild Leaderboards system, as well as unlock rewards and content for everyone in the guild by working together.
  • Guild Conquest involves special Conquest matches where the Glory you earn is stored as a contribution to the Guild’s Conquest level.
  • The higher your Guild’s Conquest tier is, the more rewards you’ll unlock for everyone in the Guild!
  • Guilds with the highest Conquest level will be at the top of the new Guild Leaderboard. The guild that finishes in first place at the end of a Conquest Season will receive 5 legendary cards for every player in their guild. Aim for the top!

Unity 2018

Minion Masters has made the jump to the Unity 2018 Engine as of this update! While it won’t affect too much on your end at the moment, it will enable us to make better VFX and Graphics in the future, and we’ve taken the opportunity to adjust the colour spaces Minion Masters uses.


Please note that with this change, Minion Masters no longer supports DirectX 9.


Misc

  • Added the ability to skip reward claiming animations in match summaries by pressing Continue.
  • Edited Shieldguard of Light’s description to remove the reference to him dealing Double Damage on his charge - While this was initially a bug, we have determined he is viable enough without the damage bonus. #ItsAFeature
  • Updated the description on Diona’s Bear Trap to say “units” instead of “minions” due to confusion caused by it triggering on enemy Diona traps.
  • Shields now scale in size based on the unit that has been shielded - Try shielding a Troubadour and see the difference!
  • Adjusted the Stealth sound effect to be quieter.
  • Changed the starting deck from the tutorial. The new Empyrean deck contains Crossbow Dudes, Spear Throwers, Legionnaires, Warrior, Fireball and Swarmers.
  • Added the ability to see how long ago Guild Members were last online - Thanks for the feedback!
  • Changed “Battle Pass ends in Now” to “New Battle Pass coming soon!” to prevent confusion at the end of a Battle Pass.
  • Remade footstep sounds for Rammers, Cleavers, and Crakgul Doomcleaver.
