Developer Feedback – June, 2021

**Q: How will Abyssal Expedition be improved in the future?**

**A:** In our “first look” season for Abyssal Expedition, we received feedback and suggestions from all kinds of players, which will be very helpful for us in improving things going forward – we’re really grateful. For future releases, we’re planning to improve in three key aspects.

Firstly, we want to improve the rules for team cooperation, balancing individual development with team strategy. For example, we want to look at the Gate mechanism, and make it so that players receive rewards based on their contribution to boss (gate defender) battles, and after the boss is defeated, the gate itself will serve as a Militia’s structure instead of a private settlement. Next, we want to gradually improve features for convenience and cooperation. For example, players could directly share territory details through chat; besides personal marker, players could leave militia marker to help notify their allies; also, there will be improvements to territory occupation/abandonment.

Finally, although it’s still a Beta season, the leaderboards in each region have been full of players jockeying for position. In future official seasons, we want to comprehensively improve reward mechanisms, giving everyone more categories of bountiful rewards, and giving Guilds and players on the leaderboard more opportunities to receive unique and awesome-looking mystery honors and rewards.

These changes mentioned above might not go live immediately with next season, we will gradually implement these improvements in future versions. Lastly, we would like to thank players again for your passionate participation and discussion of Abyssal Expedition in its debut season. We’ll do our best to bring you even more awesome content (｡ì \_ í｡).

**Q: There are some Heroes that are less popular, as there aren’t many opportunities to use them in battle. How do you think this can be improved?**

**A:** We’d like to take this opportunity to talk about Hero balance changes and improvements going forward. We are constantly improving our evaluation systems for online hero data in order to have a comprehensive understanding of heroes’ performance in different mode. We will try to rework skill mechanisms for heroes which are more difficult to make use of in different playstyles, making sure players can make the best of them. Of course, you don’t have to worry about enemies being more difficult to defeat after we’ve made adjustments. While we’re reworking the skill mechanisms, we’ll still be evaluating the difficulty of enemies for Heroes’ stages. We can say that in the next update, there’ll be skill reworks for two Mauler Heroes, so stay tuned o(￣▽￣)d.

Hero Experience

## Hero's EXP

A single hero experience.

**Hero Experience** (commonly known as **Hero's EXP**) is one of the primary resources used to level up your heroes in AFK Arena.

A valuable way to earn Hero Experience is the AFK rewards chest, the amount of Experience you can obtain from it depends on your Campaign progress. You can also get some Experience from Campaign quests and from King's Tower Rewards. Additional Experience sources are also consumable Items (6- and 24-hour Experience chests).

Because the resource is relatively hard to obtain, it is a major obstacle in a player's game progress at some point during the game.
Dura's Tears

**Dura's Tears** are consumable items that can only be used in the Arcane Labyrinth. They fully restore the health and energy of heroes.

## Background

"*A miraculous elixir that has the ability to fully restore heroes' life and energy. However, it would seem this elixir only works in the Arcane Labyrinth."*

## Guide

* Dura's Tears can be used to restore the health and energy of heroes on the Crystal Pentagram or that were hired at the Abandoned Wagon while they are exploring within the Arcane Labyrinth. Each one is single-use only.
* Dura's Tears can be acquired by completing weekly quests (up to 3 Dura's Tears per week).
* Players should not be tempted to save Dura's Tears for later use, because potential gains from completing the Labyrinth outweigh the value of 1 or even 2 Tears. Keeping that in mind, do not hesitate to use them if only they will allow you to complete the Labyrinth.
Bountiful Trials

**Bountiful Trials** is a recurring event located in Arena of Trials. It allows for players to test new or majorly reworked heroes while simultaneously earning rewards. Players have to make strategic formations with the trial hero and four other specifically given heroes to win each fight.

## Background

The Arena of Trials is a place brimming with magical energy. In come respects, it doesn't truly exist in the real world. It's more like a fantastical, magical-borne mirage. Nevertheless, the danger of this mirage is very real. With trial upon trial and ordeal after ordeal, those who have successfully obtained the treasure are a precious few indeed!

## Guide

* If a hero's Bountiful Trial commences, that hero's Arena of Trials will be reset.
* After being reset, multiple battle stages in the Arena of Trials become available. Players may claim rewards for every battle they win. When all battle stages have been completed, players may claim the final reward chest.
* After the event has ended, players can re-play battles, however, no new rewards will be available.
* All enemies are reset each time a player re-enters the Arena of Trials.
* All heroes used in the Arena of Trials have a default ascension tier of 'Ascended' and hero level of 240. Heroes are equipped with non-upgraded Mythic T1 gear that does not utilize factional gear bonuses.

## Rewards

The following rewards can be obtained by collecting all of the gold chests:

## Guild Trials

*Main Article: Guild Trials*

Guild Trials is a feature available within each Bountiful Trial. Here, Guild members can use heroes from the Guild's shared hero bag to defeat the preset enemy formations and get high scores.

* This event has a duration of 14 days. After the event has concluded, players may still continue to test formations but shall not receive any rewards.
* During Guild Trials, guild members' heroes that have reached Legendary+ may be used by all guild members.
* Duplicate heroes cannot be used, only the hero with the highest Combat Rating within the guild can be used.
* Players that do not belong to a guild are unable to view Guild Trial Formations.
Arthur - Gwyneth - Ferael Synergy

Ever since the addition of the Dimensional Hero Arthur, Gwyneth and Ferael have shined a lot. This is because of Arthur's Signature Item Lost Excalibur which allows heroes standing behind Arthur to gain a 50% increase in their attack speed.

This allows slower attack speed heroes like Gwyneth or Ferael to get a boost in the start to CC their enemies. Without Arthur's signature ability unlocked, enemy heroes like Fawkes, Arden or Tasi, are able to CC Gwyneth and Ferael before they can even use their abilities.

This composition has shined a lot post Chapter 26. With the introduction of Tier 2 mythic stones, Rowan is able to dodge much more efficiently and he serves as a pseudo tank besides Arthur. With Arthur and Rowan frontline, this composition can pretty much take down most of the enemy compositions without breaking a sweat.

1. Rowan:  Dodge Tank, provides healing.
2. Arthur: Tank, reduces 70% damage head-on and provides extra critical damage rating with his signature item.
3. Rosaline: Allows Heroes like Gwyneth to perform her ultimate quickly. She also provides healing and is a pseudo-DPS as her cups do a 40% damage of the enemy heroes' current health.
4. Gwyneth: The first main DPS of this composition. She is able to decimate backline with her lightning fire arrows and her ultimate reduces enemies' accuracy which makes rowan dodge enemies attack more often.
5. Ferael: The second main DPS of this composition. He is able to CC enemies using his ghosts and reduce their attack rating and health regeneration using his signature ability.

Please note that Gwyneth and Ferael's positions can be interchanged depending on how the backline looks like. If it is a solid 3 hero backline, Gwyneth being in the middle is a fair idea. However, if it is a 2 hero backline, Gwyneth's position could be interchanged with Ferael to provide better results.

Gear Resonance

*"The soul of an awakened weapon resonates with the bond of understanding."*
**Gear Resonance** is a feature available at the Library. It can raise all low Combat Rating gear worn by heroes to the same tier, reducing the players need to work on levelling and finding the correct faction for each individual low-level gear they already own.

## Background

They say that on the battlefield, your closest comrades are not your brothers-in-arms, nor your horse, but something more easily overlooked and much closer to you – your armor.

It protects your body, sharing your blood-soaked fights, reveling with you in victory. Yet heed me now, even when your prayers to the gods fall on deaf ears, your armor shall still be there to protect you.

And so from plight to plight, the armor you possess grows in quantity, each piece a symbol of your glory, each crack and tear a silent scar of loyalty to you.

When this loyalty becomes strong, so strong that all battle armor resonates as one, their souls are awakened. The physical realm is transcended, making sharp weapons sharper and protective gear stronger.

This resonance will accompany you in your upcoming campaigns, derived from your existence, becoming your strength.

I’m not the first person to discover this, and I certainly won’t be the last.

## Guide

* Gear Resonance can raise all low Combat Rating gear worn by heroes of the same tier.
* After collecting enough gear of the specified tier, players can unlock the Gear Resonance function, or upgrade its tier level.
* When the Gear Resonance Tier is at Mythic T2 or below, low Combat Rating gear will be raised to match the Gear Resonance tier with Faction bonuses, but will not be enhanced.
* When the Gear Resonance Tier reaches Mythic T3 or above, low Combat Rating gear will be raised to match the Gear Resonance tier, but will not gain faction bonuses, nor be enhanced. If the original gear's tier reaches Mythic T3, it will retain its hero exclusive bonus Attributes.
* Players can enable or disable Resonating effects via hero and gear interfaces.
* Once gear is resonating, it cannot be enhanced, upgraded, or reset.

## Activation Requirements

 Mythic Tier 1
 Mythic Tier 2
 Mythic Tier 3

A Memory of Lucretia

**A Memory of Lucretia** is an animated short that released on the official AFK Arena Youtube channel on September 23, 2020. It precedes the events of Desperation, detailing the circumstances of Lucretia and Owain's arrival to the mysterious village.

## Description

*Dura called upon Zaphrael to ascend as a Celestial. Zaphrael answered the call but with it, leaving behind his wife Lucretia and their unborn child.*

*Little did he know that his quest for justice would usher a greater evil upon Esperia.*

## Transcript

[*Open int. of cabin. Two half-melted candles are lit on the table.*]

**Owain:** [*offscreen*] Can I hear it one more time?

**Lucretia:** [*offscreen*] Of course.

[*Trans. to battlefield where a mortal Zaphrael is facing off against Mezoth. Raised swords and flags flank him in the background. Lucretia begins to tell Owain a story.*]

**Lucretia:** [*voiceover*] War raged in Esperia. Zaphrael, your father, fought valiantly against the Hypogeans.

[*Trans. to a shot of Dura standing amidst the clouds, her face obscured by light. Tilt down to Lucretia comforting Zaphrael.*]

**Lucretia:** I knew many no longer trusted Dura, but I prayed to her to bring him home safely.

[*Trans. to a shot of Dura's staff shining in the light.*]

**Lucretia:** His talent could not passed unnoticed. Dura invited him to join the Celestial army.

[*Trans. to a forest with two broken pillars forming an arch. Zaphrael and Lucretia are standing underneath it as he places an amulet around her neck.*]

**Lucretia:** Before leaving he gave me his amulet as a keepsake, thinking he left me alone.

[*Trans. from a closeup of the amulet around Lucretia's neck to it hanging above a baby's outstretched hand.*]

**Lucretia:** But you came! My little hero. You grew up so fast!

[*Trans. to Owain playing with a sword in the forest with Lucretia, who holds a shield.*

**Lucretia:** Already wishing to save Esperia like your father.

[*The scenery shifts to a bleak landscape, imposing silhouettes filling the background.*]

**Lucretia:** But evil continued to flourish. And one day our village fell under the Hypogeans' influence.

[*Lucretia carries Owain through the desolate forest. The scene shifts to a village where the statue of (presumably) Dura stands, lit candles surrounding it. The statue is missing an arm and the face is now obscured by shadow instead of light.*]

**Lucretia:** And that's why we left. Eventually taken in by a generous heart.

[*Trans. to the ext. of the cabin. An unknown woman stands in front of the entrance as a beam of light from the inside lights the figures of Lucretia and Owain.*]

**Lucretia:** But we have to be careful.

[*Enter back into the int. of the cabin where the shadows of Lucretia and Owain are seen on the wall. The story has now concluded.*]

**Lucretia:** Owain, can I count on you to keep the amulet safe?

**Owain:** Yes.

**Lucretia:** Look after it well, my little hero.

**Owain:** I will always protect you, mama.

[*The screen cuts to the same shot of the lit candles. A gust of wind blows them out and the scene ends in darkness.*]
Esperia Shorts: Rowan Checking Social Media

**Esperia Shorts: Rowan Checking Social Media** is the second episode of an animated short that released on the official AFK Arena Youtube channel, this episode was released on December 09, 2021.

## Description

Poor Rowan! Rosaline just skipped him and followed his duck instead. Looks like he might need some new growth strategy!

What do you think is happening here? And who would you follow, Rowan or his duck?
Arachin

**Arachin** are a sub-race of Ya based on spiders. Their society is matriarchal and ruled by a single queen who carries absolute authority. The current queen, and the only individual seen so far, is Ankhira, though many others are known to exist.

Arachin primarily hunt by setting elaborate traps of webs and then poisoning their prey. Their venom is highly lethal, and one injection of it will make the victim suffer an excruciating demise as their internal organs dissolve. The brightness of an arachin's colors indicates the potency of an individual arachin's venom. This technique has proven so effective, especially after being perfected by Ankhira, that even Hypogeans have come to fear them after numerous attempts to invade them have ended in their complete annihilation. That said, their defenses are not completely impenetrable, as Vurk managed to infiltrate their caves and siphon Ankhira's venom for his own use.

As only a female has ever been seen, it's unknown whether male arachin share the highly humanoid appearance that females have.
Gladiator Coins

Gladiator Coins are the currency used in Challenger Store. These coins can be used to buy Soulstones of extremely potent Celestial/Hypogean heroes (Ezizh, Athalia, & Flora) and Emblem Choice Chests. It is recommended to focus on getting Ezizh to Ascended with Gladiator Coins first, with the main exception being limited-time Dimensional releases.

Gladiator Coins are earned passively after unlocking and battling in the Legends Challenger Tournament, which is unlocked after beating stage 9-20. The Gladiator Coin earn rate depends on ladder ranking. Champion ranked players earn (400 - rank + 1) Gladiator coins/hour (e.g. Champion 12 ranked player earns 389 Coins per hour). Players at lower positions earn fewer coins per hour.

Battle Wager

**Battle Wager** is a feature of Legends' Championship where players can gamble with their gold by predicting the winner of incoming Legends' Championship matches. The amount of gold available for wager is 48 hours of your AFK rewards chest production while the prize increases while you progress in the campaign.

Betting is a decent way to earn (or lose!) extra gold, sometimes the winner can be determined easily, but most of the time matches and hero rosters are quite close. Things to look out for while betting are:

* Ascension levels of heroes in the roster (the higher ascension, the better)
* Faction bonus in teams (the bigger the bonus, the better)
* Team compositions
* Look for well-known players (but don't depend solely on that, they can lose too!)

Each championship lets you wager 6 times. Each match takes place around 12:00 UTC on subsequent days. You can check your betting history and gold balance under the stats button in the wager menu.
Guild

A **guild** is a feature available in Ranhorn after completing campaign Stage 2-20. Here, a group made up of players can participate in guild hunts and share their heroes for the Library Unions buffs and team bounty quests. Guilds are cross-server, so players in a guild may come from different servers.

A player may create a guild for the cost of 500 diamonds.

Players in a guild who complete daily quests will contribute to the guild, rewarding the guild with activity points, which can be spent for unlocking a special guild hunt that has better rewards. Activity points also allows the guild to grow and level up, which allows more members to join the guild.

Faction Emblems

**Faction Emblems** are used to upgrade Signature Items from +20 to +30 (+40 for Celestial, Hypogean, & Dimensional heroes).

## Guide

To upgrade a Signature item of a hero, only Faction Emblems from this hero faction can be used (e.g for upgrading your Shemira signature item from level 20 to 21, 10 Emblems of Death [Graveborn Emblems] are needed).

100 Emblems in total are needed to upgrade Signature Item to level 25, 300 Emblems in total to upgrade it to level 30 and 1050 Emblems to upgrade a Celestial or Hypogean signature item to level 40.

## Emblems

     Emblem of Space (Dimensional) | A bizarre emblem that appears to be from another world, used to activate or enhance Dimensional Signature Items. Can be exchanged at the Labyrinth Store.

Emblem Choice Chests are mainly obtained from events. They can also be obtained from currently ongoing *Tavern Bargains* event (as an **Emblem Choice Chest**), Towers of Esperia quest from floors 200+, gift sets, and AFK Rewards starting from **Chapter 19**.

Elijah & Lailah/Usage Guide

This **Elijah & Lailah usage guide** was uploaded and transcribed as of Patch 1.66.

## Hero Usage Guide

Hero Deep Dive- Elijah & Lailah - AFK Arena
## Hero Overview

Being two heroes combined into one, Elijah & Lailah are unique in their mechanics. In battle, Elijah lingers in the back row while Lailah moves into melee range to attack enemies. The two share a health pool, so as one loses health, so does the other.

These heroes are very useful in boss fights, even at just Elite tier. This is because they have the ability to link damage between allies in the front row, increasing the damage that the team's main damage dealers can output. In addition, Elijah & Lailah provide the team an extra increase in Haste and immunity.

## Recommended Teams

At Mythic tier, Elijah & Lailah become a lot more relevant to aspects such as the Campaign and King's Tower. Due to their amazing support capacity, they can be placed into just about any team.

The following team is most recommended for Elijah & Lailah:

### God Comp

There are many different compositions of this team, but the core members are Elijah & Lailah, Rowan, and Ezizh due to all three having the ability to increase the Haste or Energy of the team, allowing abilities to be cycled through with much more ease.

Talene can be replaced with Saurus as needed, as he synergizes well with the twin heroes due to him needing to avoid crowd control effects and cast abilities faster in order to heal his allies efficiently.

     Talene

## Investment Worth

With their ability to support teammates and streamline boss battles, the twins are worth investing in. However, it may be more worth it to invest in another Celestial or a Hypogean first.

If the player chooses to invest in Elijah & Lailah first, they can sit comfortably at +20 upgrades for their Signature Item to received nice stat buffs while still remaining effective.

Similarly, their furniture can sit at 3/9 mythic furniture pieces for a nice buff. 9/9 is a bit expensive, as other heroes can get better effects from their Hero Furniture Abilities.
Astar Theme: Heart of The Forest

**Astar Theme: Heart of The Forest** is a music created for AFK Arena released on January 15, 2022.

## Description

*Astar Theme: Heart of The Forest | AFK Arena*

*Playful, curious, innocent - Astar is all these traits combined.*

*Always excited to learn about the new and unexplored, she stepped on a journey with Talene. During those days and nights, she finally understood the seemingly abstract concept of love and hope...*
Eironn/Usage Guide

This **Eironn usage guide** was uploaded and transcribed as of Patch 1.66.

## Recommended Teams

Eironn has high versatility for team compositions due to the fact that he has high burst damage, as well as nice control capabilities with his "Vortex" skill, which manipulates the enemy team.

Early game, Eironn can be prioritized above other heroes and used as a carry/damage dealer. He can be paired with other solid early game heroes such as Lyca, Tasi, Nemora, Rowan, and Pippa.

Late game, there are many teams that Eironn can be slotted into as the core hero. The following are a few examples of some basic teams:

### 5-Pull Team

This team makes use of the combination of Skriath's 3/9 furniture ability, which pulls enemies together, and Eironn's "Vortex" ability to draw enemies in. This effectively allows Skriath to drag all 5 enemies towards Eironn for them to subsequently be grouped up and damaged.

This team has a lot of freedom in the other 3 choices of heroes, with a focus on heroes that can deal AoE crowd control and AoE damage.

Control heroes include Pippa, Gorvo, and Tidus.

AoE damage heroes include Safiya (who can increase your team's damage and reduce the enemy team's damage) and Saurus (who has damage, control, and healing effects).

Utility heroes can also be brought in, such as Lyca for Haste, Lorsan to link damage between enemies, Rowan for healing and energy potions, Brutus for his brief damage immunity, or Wu Kong who can deal damage through his clones and slow enemies with his staff.

The following is just one of many examples of such a team:

    Eironn
     Lyca | Upper Frontline
     Skriath | Lower Frontline

### Burst Composition Team

Safiya and Estrilda can be swapped out with any other burst damage heroes.

     Safiya | Center Backline
     Estrilda | Lower Backline
     Eironn | Upper Frontline

### Gwyneth/Eironn Team

This composition allows Eironn to group up enemies so that Gwyneth can strike and stun more of them with her arrows.

     Gwyneth | Center Backline
     Zolrath | Lower Backline
     Lorsan | Upper Frontline
     Eironn | Lower Frontline

## Investment Worth

Eironn works well with an investment of 3/9 mythic furniture pieces for his furniture ability. While 9/9 is great to have, it can also be put off in order to raise other heroes of the team to 3/9 as well.

His signature item is fantastic in whatever upgrades are possible, especially for +30 unlocks if Eironn is the main carry of the team. Adding a freeze to his ultimate skill is a game changer that grants Eironn an extra layer of control over the enemy team.

Overall, it is definitely worth investing in Eironn. His signature item and furniture abilities are fantastic and he's a great early and late game hero, maintaining relevance throughout. His "Vortex" skill is irreplaceable, as no other hero can draw so many enemies in.

"No other place in Esperia do the elements act in such a strange way. A place where the wind and earth react dramatically to one another's touch and steam hisses when dancing rains of fire are bathed in musically gurgling streams that flow uphill. The deafening thunder serves as a warning, while the unceasing lightning threatens to strike down any who dare to intrude here. Now a turbulent place that no life can survive in, its hard to believe The Bastion of the Elements was once a tranquil paradise."

Developer Feedback – 30/05/2021

ABBYSAL EXPEDITION DEVELOPER UPDATE

Hello everyone, I’m Hong Chen, one of the developers of AFK Arena. It’s my honor to represent the AFK design team in introducing a new gameplay mode launching soon: “Abyssal Expedition”.

Abyssal Expedition is a co-op feature we’ve been working on for the past few months. We hope players will get a “new ship” feel from it!

**Speaking more literally, we hope to accomplish the following:**

1. Help players feel more connected with their Guildmates through increased interaction, bonding as they fight side-by-side;
2. Allow everyone to more fully enjoy our diverse lineup of heroes and battle scenarios;
3. Add rewarding new experiences without adding any sense of burden. After all, we designed this game to be relaxing, where you can make gains even when you’re offline.

With hero diversity in mind, players’ starting formation heroes in Abyssal Expedition will use the same Martial Rating as in Heroes of Esperia to determine balance. At the same time, Blessed Relics dropped after battles will have very very very very very VERY good bonuses. As a result, even Elite+ heroes will be very powerful after matching up.

With cooperative play in mind, we strive to provide a lot of space to innovate and strategize with your fellow players. At the same time, we’re doing everything we can to avoid any design which could make players feel like they have to grind or stay online for long periods of time.

We hope players will be excited to try out AFK Arena’s newest game mode, and that they will enjoy this chance at co-op gameplay. Of course, we want to do everything we can to make AFK Arena the best game it can be, and welcome any comments or suggestions that can help us improve your experience.

**Here are some rules that may be easily overlooked, hopefully everyone finds this helpful:**

1. Only Ascended Tier Heroes of Elite+ or higher quality can be used;
2. The last player to destroy a gate defender will occupy the gate. An occupied gate is considered the equivalent of a Settlement. After giving up control of the gate, the new defender will be a common settlement enemy, and not the original boss;
3. After fighting defenders, end-of-battle HP will persist, but energy will be reset. Additionally, HP remaining will not be preserved if the battle timer expires;
4. Multiple players can fight the boss at the same time, but for demon minions and Settlement battles, only 1 player can fight at a time;
5. Bosses and demon minions will not recover HP between fights, allowing you and your guildmates to take them on at your own pace;
6. Any area you have not unlocked, once occupied by another player, can also function as a connected area.
7. After fighting a world boss, the top 50 guilds (ranked by damage dealt to the boss) will be displayed on a leaderboard, but since this is the first run of the event, there will be no prizes for ranking.

*Finally, we wish you all great fun and glory in the coming battles!*
