This patch brings back River Fort, a map that has been previously removed, and it adjusts Steel income values, changing the currency system for the game. With the addition of River Fort, Ubisoft mentioned that they will bring High Fort back “as soon as possible if everything goes well with River Fort.” 

Steel is adopting new rates. Check out the break down of the changes below:

  • All matches Steel income are increased by 25%
  • Daily Orders Steel income are increased by 33%
  • Side Orders Steel income are increased by 50%
  • Community Orders Steel rewards are increased from 500-1000 to 2000 Steel

Along with these conversations about Steel, there are also changes coming down the pipe regarding Gear balancing. This newest update adds new customization variants for Heroes, including Death Blossom outfits for Samurai, Death Raven outfits for Vikings and Battlefield Chic outfits for Knights. Found in the blog post from Ubisoft, the delay of the Elite Outfits was addressed, as they stated, “Our team wanted to prioritize updates to Steel income to ensure that more players had the chance to unlock the outfits before we added any new content in the game.”

Good news for all of the players that were affected by the server outage that happened on March 28th, you will be receiving a three day Champion Status to make up for the 8 hour outage. Ubisoft is also looking into the Faction War rewards and will correct the situation as soon as they can. Finally, Ubisoft has addressed what to expect in the future, “In one of our next patch, we will apply the first fix to tackle the most problematic values. This fix will also alleviate some of the matchmaking issues where players were being matched against those with stronger gear.”
