Hey Summoners,



We hope that you’ve all been enjoying the 3rd Anniversary and Facebook (not quite) 1 Million Likes events so far! We know we’re only a couple days into them, and there’s been plenty of cool stuff going on in the Contest to keep you busy, but we have a few more permanent additions to let you all know about.



Blackout Period Decrease in Alliance Quests



We will be reducing the Blackout Period (the amount of time after you join a new Alliance before you can get rewards) for Alliance Quests from 10 days in Expert and 6 days in Advanced to 5 days for both brackets. Normal Bracket will remain at 3 days. This adds a little more flexibility for when you might change to a new Alliance.



This change is not retroactive, and will not affect the current Alliance Quests, but will affect the following series that begins on December 19th.



Tier 1 Alpha Catalyst Cost in Glory Store



We're making a small change to the cost of Tier 1 Alpha catalysts in the Glory Store. The initial cost will be reduced from 350 Glory to 320 Glory and the escalating costs reduced as well (around 30% total for all 5 catalysts).



1: 350 -> 320

2: 425 -> 370

3: 650 -> 430

4: 1,025 -> 530

5: 1,300 -> 670



This change will come into effect at the start of the next Alliance Quest on December 19th at 12:00PM PST.



Tier 4 Class Catalyst Cap Increase



For those of you accomplished Summoners we are increasing the amount of Tier 4 Class Catalysts you can hold from 4 to 6 at Level 40, 6 to 8 at Level 50 and 8 to 12 at Level 60.



And one more thing,



Health Percentage Visible during Fights



Remember that cool feature we showed off at NYCC, where both yours and your opponent’s actual Health Percentage Figures were shown in the Health Bar? We’ll be activating that for all players.



The Tier 1 Alpha Catalyst Glory Store Cost change, and the Blackout Period Decrease will come into effect right at the start of the next Alliance Quest on December 19th at 12:00PM PST.



The changes to Tier 4 Class Catalyst Inventory Cap and the Health Percentage Display are in effect right now!



(When I say right now… I mean it might take a few minutes to get to your game, but that doesn’t sound as exciting)
