Even the Llamas are filled with the holiday spirit. Break out the cocoa and bust open this Llama to unlock festive Heroes and Weapons. The more the merrier!

### GENERAL’S BOOTCAMP

“Best defense? Better offense? Let’s have both! We’re gonna need it. We’ve got Smarter Smashers, and Husks Healing Husks headed our way. We’re in for a frosty fight, Commanders” - The General
Homebase protocol dictates that Heroes be in tip top shape to deal with the new threats of the Husks. The General has supercharged Homebase’s max level Heroes with more ability damage (up to +72% Ability Damage), reinforced Health and Shields (up to +42%), and significantly faster harvesting in late Twine Peaks.

### CLIP’S CORNER

“Let’s talk traps and weapons. I went ahead and fixed up your Ward Trap. I was thinking we could use something to take out lobber skulls and propane tanks, so say goodbye Ward Trap, and hello Anti-Air Trap.
We tweaked the Gas Traps to have a tighter focus. They no longer deal DoT, so make sure you find a way to keep the husks under under your traps. And if you’re like me, and you hate getting swarmed by thousands of angry bees, you’ll be happy to know you can now use Gas Traps to take out bee swarms.
In the latest round of testing, our Launcher Traps aren’t able to get smashers off the ground. The problem is, Smashers are huge.
Finally, I toned down The Storm King’s Wrath a bit. Guess I didn’t know my own strength when I made that one. It still packs a punch, but I’ve made it eligible for a reset.
Keep up the good fight out there!” - Clip

### DIRECTOR’S UPDATE

“One of the side effects of being a Business Wolf… is wolflike efficiency! ” - Director Riggs
Players will now be able to decide what rarity of items that are auto recycled via the settings option. Additionally, if you don’t own the item that you are trying to recycle in your collection book, it will automatically be added there for you to prevent any accidental recycling.
