Greetings Lords, this is Fantasy War Tactics development team!

Today’s topic of the developer’s note is ‘Hero Awakening’, which will be a core feature of season 2 and we believe a lot of you should be curious about it.

During a year of service, there were many feedbacks about utilizing heroes, and we also had tons of discussions about how to expand the related contents. Reuse of unused heroes is necessary but there were limits in rebalancing these heroes by changing their skills. We concluded such problem comes from the structure that limits those heroes’ enhancement. So we were seeking the way to solve this problem and give a new kind of joy to you: The Hero Awakening.

[Hero Awakening]

Hero Awakening sets two big goals. First one is to encourage you to reuse the unpopular heroes and the second one is expansion of hero enhancement

Unused heroes will be reused by their absolutely overwhelming power of awaken skills and stats. We will awaken heroes monthly to make you try out new strategies and parties.

Also, upon awakening, heroes can have new equipment called ‘rune’. With time and effort, everyone can obtain runes in the world conquest or Nephthys dungeons. Greater runes can be farmed in competitive dungeons to make you challenge against more contents and feel being rewarded and enhance your heroes.

[What changes by awakening?]

Level 70 ★5 Heroes can be awakened by using awakening materials. The materials will be able to farmed in the Nephthys dungeon. So what will change by awakening heroes?

The changes are as follows:

▶ Exclusive Aura

Awakened heroes will have Auras to make visual difference from unawaken heroes.

▶ Awaken skill

Awaken skill is the symbol of the awakening.

Awaken skills are achieved upon awakening heroes, and they will be designed to have a fierce damage and reflect each hero’s characteristics. How to combine and when to use awaken skills will play a significant role in achieving victory.

Awaken skills have overwhelming visual effects and powers, so they will have different activation mechanism from ordinary skills.

▶ Stat increase and max level unlock

Upon awakening, heroes’ stats will be increased and their maximum level will be unlocked just like the rebirth. Also, stat bonuses gained from level ups after awakening will differ to that of rebirth, so the heroes can be more powerful than before.

▶ Rune slot unlock

Rune slots will be unlocked upon awakening and runes can be equipped right away. Up to 3 runes can be equipped and they have stat bonuses similar to the ordinary equipment.

Runes can be enhanced and upon having a specific level of successful enhancement, special options that differ from ordinary equipment will be added to them. Also, each rune has its unique specialized stat so the heroes can be used in more various ways upon equipping runes.

As we’ve mentioned before, runes have ranks and lesser runes can be easily obtained from the world conquest and awakened heroes will be enhanced easily by lesser runes. With the enhanced awakened heroes, you will be able to challenge more competitive dungeons to farm greater runes and make progress on your hero enhancement.





We’ve talked about contents related with awakening. Information above is in development process so there are rooms for changes.

In the next developer’s note, we’re going to introduce new areas and scenarios, with big and small upcoming changes in season 2.

To all of you who have supported FWT and waited for a long time, we once again thank you sincerely, and we will keep our season 2 development in progression.

Lastly, we’ll introduce a grown up Lord and a mysterious ship that will make appearance in season 2.
