📢 Update: Steel Dragon and a new arena!

🗡️ Meet the Steel Dragon, a new element!
It is designed to break the strongest defenses:
▪️ Rift. A powerful strike shatters the enemy's shield, preventing them from raising a new one for several seconds.
▪️Piercing Claws. The Steel Dragon's strikes penetrate Earth armor.
▪️ Strong against Earth and Ice.

The Steel Dragon is available only in Epic, Legendary, and Mythic rarities.

📽 The Path of the Steel Dragon:

Find the new Steel Dragon coin on the map (from Town Hall level 3) and progress through the path step by step:
• The first steps are free, and the Epic Steel Dragon unlocks at step 3;
• The Legendary Steel Dragon unlocks at step 12;
• Throughout the path, you will receive a 6★ Legendary Steel Dragon, plus additional meat for upgrades, potions, gems, and materials.

⚔️ New arena in all battles
The Twilight Forest arena is now available in all battles: in camps, raids, monster fights, hunts, and Secret Operations.

Battles are now easier on mobile phones

We have optimized battles: they put less load on your phone, generate less heat, and consume less memory, especially on iPhones. Everything still looks as beautiful as before.

⚙️

New "Battle Effects" setting

If your phone is overheating, turn off additional effects in Settings. Only health bars and projectiles will remain, without damage numbers, crits, or flashes.

Happy gaming, guardians! 🔥

🏆 Clan Duel season rewards have been increased!

We see how passionately you fight for your clans day after day, and we greatly appreciate your activity. It is you who make Emberwing come alive, and we want every one of your efforts to be rewarded fairly. Therefore, we have significantly increased the season rewards, and they are already in effect for the current season!

🏅 4th–10th places, added to the chest:

6th place: 80 GRAM
7th place: 65 GRAM
8th place: 55 GRAM

📌 Every clan member who earns at least 10,000 points during the season receives a chest. The clan's GRAM is divided among the top 10 participants by points.

⏳ The current season ends on November 7 at 00:00 MSK.
Fight, bring points to your clan, and claim your well-deserved rewards! ⚔️

⚔️ UPDATE: NEW BATTLES!

We have completely revamped battles — they are now truly interesting to watch. 👀

🐉 Attack Animations
• Each dragon type has its own style: tanks strike up close, offensive dragons unleash fire, ice, lightning, and darkness on the enemy, while others fire projectiles.
• Heavy dragons dash toward their target when using an ability.
• Every hit is felt: flashes, sparks, and screen shake on powerful strikes.

🌞 Abilities and Elements
• All 7 elements have their own effects: fire, ice, storm, earth, poison, void, and celestial light.
• Before an ability, the dragon's energy bar fills up and a rune lights up, followed by a banner with a portrait and the ability name.
• You can immediately see who is burning, frozen, poisoned, or has a shield or rage.

🎬 Battle Start and Finish
• Dragons fly onto the field before the battle.
• The final blow is in slow motion, and the winners celebrate.
• Team health bars at the top — you can immediately see who is winning.
• New sounds for hits, abilities, and knockouts.

⚔️ 5V5 ARENA!
▪️ You can now battle with a team of up to 5 dragons on the arena: 3 slots are available immediately, the 4th unlocks at Town Hall level 5, and the 5th at level 8.
▪️ New arena — night forest — and new formation: 2 dragons in the front line and 3 in the back.
▪️ Defenders can now be placed directly on the arena map: you decide who stands in front and who covers from behind. You only need to place at least one.
▪️ Your defenses have been supplemented with your strongest free dragons — they can be rearranged at any time.
▪️ Expeditions, Secret Operations, and monster battles remain 3 dragons.

🛠 Fixes
• Battles and menus no longer "eat" phone memory — the game should not restart on iPhone after several consecutive battles.
• Expedition completion notifications now arrive on time — immediately when the expedition ends, not when you log into the game.

Assemble your five and get to battle! ⚔️

Happy battling! 🔥

🎰 15 friendship roulette coins
🃏 10 epic jokers
🃏 40 rare jokers
🐉 50 dragon tickets

Submitted a layout but didn't receive the reward? Write your in-game nickname or Telegram ID in the comments to the post — we will check manually.

New building: Secret Operations! 👁

Secret Operations have opened on the island — available from Town Hall level 4.

What is what ⁉️

🟣Every day, 6 operations await you. Each has its own rarity (Rare, Epic, Legendary), difficulty stars from 1 to 5 (depending on Town Hall level), and its own set of rewards: meat, potions, gems, eggs, fragments, jokers, tickets, equipment materials, and speed-ups.
🟣3 dragons are sent on an operation. Each operation has a strength requirement — strong dragons are needed for legendary rewards.
🟣An operation lasts 1, 2, or 4 hours and cannot be sped up. Dragons will return when you collect the chest.
🟣Don't like the operations? Refresh the board — 5 times a day for free. In "Super" mode, all unstarted operations become legendary.

🗺 World Map
• The map shows the Town Halls of all active players; clans live next to each other.
• Your chest stands next to your Town Hall while an operation is in progress and until you collect it.
• Tap on a Town Hall to open the player's profile and visit their island.

💰 Plunder
• A completed but uncollected chest can be plundered by players from other clans.
• Plundering is a battle with three guardian dragons. Victory yields 10% of each reward from the chest.
• One chest can be plundered no more than 3 times; each player has 5 attempts per day.
• You can plunder chests with the same number of stars as you, or one star more or less.
• You must find chests yourself — explore the map!

🤝 Clan Help
• A clanmate can collect your completed chest for you: they will receive 10%, and the rest will come to you immediately — and plunderers will no longer be able to take anything.
• You can help 5 times a day.
• The report shows who helped you and who plundered you.

💡 Tip: collect chests on time and stick with your clan — that way you will lose the least.

Happy hunting for chests! 🐉

⚔️ CLAN DUEL: SEASON RESULTS AND NEW RULES

🏆 First season ended early
• The season lasted one week instead of four, so each participant received a quarter of the promised seasonal rewards (rounded up). Rewards have already been credited — check the game!

• Two clans stood out:
Dragon HUNTERS and Dragon Kings earned the most points (28.6 million and 12.9 million), but under the old rules, the season counted wins, and they ended up at the bottom of the table. This is unfair, so:
- Dragon HUNTERS receive an additional GRAM reward for 2nd place (a quarter)
- Dragon Kings receive an additional top-10 chest for participants

⚔️ New Clan Duel — starting next season
📊 Season ranking is based solely on points. Wins are no longer counted.
✅ A won week adds +20% to the points earned that week
❌ A lost week subtracts −20%
⭐️ Spending stars no longer earns duel points

🗓 Five days — five tasks

1️⃣ Incubator — points for hatched eggs: the higher the egg level, the more points (each level doubles the points). Plus points for egg sets.
2️⃣ Construction — as before.
3️⃣ Tavern — dragon tickets, meat for dragon upgrades, potions for skills, applied fragments (the rarer the fragment, the more points) and tavern sets.
4️⃣ Production — meat, wood, and potions collected from buildings, eggs from the Den, monsters defeated on your own island, and expedition hours (the longer the expedition, the more points per hour).
5️⃣ All at once — everything counts together.

The days are balanced so that each brings approximately the same amount of points. Exact points for each action are in the duel window.

After the first week of the duel, the number of points for completing specific tasks on certain days may change slightly to maintain balance.

🛡 Arena changes:
Meat, wood, and potions can no longer be gained or lost in arena battles and league bonuses — your warehouses are now safe! Gold and trophies remain as before.

🔜New season starts tomorrow:
Opponent matching - 12:00 UTC
First battle - 21:00 UTC

Prepare your clans! 💪

⚔️ CLAN GAMES — a new 14-day event! ⚔️

The island’s clans will face off in the Clan Games: two new mini-games, a 25-tier reward ladder, and the grand prize—a legendary dragon! 🐉

🧪 Clan Elixirs
Pour elixirs into flasks so that each one contains only one color. The further you go, the trickier it gets: hidden “?” layers, locks, ice, and stones. 70 levels—from easy to truly challenging!

🔨 Clan Forge
Match three identical tiles to clear the board. 30 stages, with the last five posing a real challenge for the most persistent players.

🎟 Each game has its own tickets: 20 to start, then +1 every hour.

🏆 Glory
Win mini-games—the harder the level, the more Glory you earn. You’ll also earn Glory from raids, construction, and monster hunting on the island. Earn Glory and climb the ladder of 25 rewards!

🎁 Three reward tiers
• Free—for everyone
• Clan Pass—more rewards at every step
• Commander’s Pass — the best event rewards, and at the top—a random LEGENDARY dragon whose element you can change once! ✨

⏳ The event lasts 14 days, with an additional 2 days after it ends to claim your rewards.

Let the games begin! 💪

Dear Guardians,

We’re very dissatisfied that we’ve essentially turned an interesting game into monotonous button-mashing for 3 out of the 5 days of clan duels.

The most important thing is being able to admit a mistake, and that’s exactly what we’re doing. Starting next week, the duel mechanics will be completely reworked.

What will happen to the current points?

Right now, we’re considering two options:
1. Reduce the rewards by 4x, distribute them at the end of the week, and start the new week from 0.
2. Keep everything as it is and balance the way points are accumulated.

We also see how active you’ve been, so we’ll be adding seasonal rewards as well.

🎁 Clan Duel chests are updated!
🔄 Already claimed Monday's chests? Open the Duel tab and claim again. Every chest your points reach pays out with the new rewards, and what you got before stays yours!
👀 From now on, every chest shows exactly what you received.
⚔️ Keep fighting for your clan!

🎰 The Lucky Machine is open!

Pull the lever, match the symbols and win 🎟 dragon tickets, 🃏 epic jokers, ⏳ speed-ups, 💎 gems, 💰 gold and more!
📦 Land a chest and pick one of nine cards for an extra prize.
⭐ Every Lucky Coin you spend earns points toward big milestones, all the way to the Legendary Storm dragon at 3,000 points and 100 legendary jokers at 5,000!

🤝 Playing together in a clan is more fun, and in the Lucky Machine it pays more:
👥 Invite a friend with your link: your friend gets a Lucky Coin, and you get 5 🪙 once they join a clan and come back the next day (up to 10 friends a day)
🎁 When a clanmate buys a big coin pack, the first 10 clanmates to claim the gift get Lucky Coins. Be quick!
🛠 Helping 3 clanmates is one of your daily coin tasks

🏰 No clan yet? Join one at the Clan Castle, or start your own and bring your friends!

📋 Earn up to 10 Lucky Coins every day from daily tasks, or grab a coin pack with the ➕ next to your coins.

⏰ The event runs until October 20. Coins you don't use stay with you for the next event!

🏆 The Leaderboard just got a big update!

It now has five tabs:
• Ranking: your place among all Keepers, with the 50 Keepers above and below you
• Leagues: every league and division
• Top Players: the best Keepers of the season
• Top Clans: the strongest clans
• Town Hall: the top 100 Keepers at your Town Hall level. Flip through the levels with the arrows and see who leads each one

👆 Tap any Keeper on the lists:
• Profile: their Town Hall, league, trophies, clan and raid record, the dragons they raid with most often and the defenders guarding their island
• Visit: take a look around their island
• View Clan: check out their clan

🔥 Spotted a Forge-lit Town Hall on someone's profile? Tap "Try on my island" to see itFestival shop is open.

Climb the ranks, scout your rivals and show off your island! 🐉

🔥 The Forge goes deeper!

Keepers, you conquered the first 25 Secrets, so we've unsealed five more: stages 26–30, each tougher than the last. The final one, Dragonslayer Reforged, awaits only the most patient masters.

Every new stage pays like the legends before it: 50,000 logs, 150,000 gold, 200 Embers, 200 Sparks and rare crafting materials: leather, copper, iron and gold.

Only the bravest will see the forge's last seal. Will it be you?

Secrets of the Forge: five new stages!

You loved Secrets of the Forge so much that the smiths have opened five more stages. The challenge now goes all the way to stage 25.

Stages 21 to 25 are the hardest boards the forge has ever made: deeper stacks, more tiles, and every stage tougher than the last. Stage 25, the Dragonslayer, is a true test of skill. Only the most determined players will clear it.

Every new stage pays:
- 50,000 logs and 150,000 gold
- 200 Embers and 200 Sparks for the festival ladder
- Gear materials:
- stage 21: 100 Leather
- stage 22: 200 Leather
- stage 23: 100 Copper
- stage 24: 100 Iron
- stage 25: 100 Gold (gear material)

Cleared stage 20 already? Stage 21 is waiting for you now. Under each stage you can see how many players have beaten it. Will you be among the first to conquer the Dragonslayer?

Open the Forge Festival and find the Secrets tab.

Forge Secrets: A New Game in the Blacksmith Festival

A new "Secrets" tab has been added to the Blacksmith Festival. Behind it, the blacksmiths have hidden 20 tile-matching puzzle stages.

How to play: tap tiles to move them into the tray. Matching three of the same kind makes them disappear. Clear the board to complete the stage, but keep an eye on the tray: if it fills with seven tiles without forming a match, the attempt ends.

Each stage is harder than the last, and stages 5, 10, 15, and 20 feature large "forge boards." Stage 20 is for the best of the best. Below each stage title, you can see how many players have already beaten it. Will you be the first?

Boosters (3 free uses each):
- "Remove": moves three tiles from the tray to a reserve row.
- "Shuffle": rearranges the tiles on the board.
- "Undo": returns the last tile to its original spot.

Rewards (earned once per stage):
- For every stage: Logs and Gold (up to 50,000 Logs and 150,000 Gold).
- Stages 1–5: Rare Jokers.
- Stages 6–10: Epic Jokers.
- Stages 11–20: Legendary Jokers (with 10 awarded at Stage 20).
- Sparks for the Festival Ladder (10 to 200 per stage).
- Embers at stages 5, 10, 15, and 20.

"Forge Secrets" ends when the Blacksmith Festival concludes—don't wait! Open the festival and look for the "Secrets" tab.

Dear Guardians,

We’ve made some small updates to Arena matchmaking. Things are much more exciting now!

We heard your feedback regarding Arena bots, the issue of opponents constantly appearing online, and the inability to take revenge on those who attacked you.

We’ve taken all of this into account, and here are the changes:
1. The "Revenge" button now works every time.
2. Bots appear in the Arena much less frequently; your opponent will almost always be a real player.
3. Players in the Obsidian League and above can now be attacked even while they are online (provided they don't have an active shield; shields still offer protection as before).

Good luck, Guardians!
