Campaign Begins: Crown of the Decaying Queen
A brand new Campaign begins today. Investigate the plague of decay that is sweeping across Krystara.
During this Campaign, we have a new Heroic Gem that players may encounter in puzzle battles – the Decaying Gem.
Decaying Gems are Brown Gems. While they appear on the board – at the start of each turn – the team with the most troops will suffer -1 Armor per Decay Gem for all its troops (if both teams have the same number of troops, it will affect all troops). Decaying Gems will occasionally (but rarely) drop like regular Gems during the Crown of the Decaying Queen Campaign. Some Troops and Weapons will also be able to create them. Once the Campaign is over, they will no longer fall randomly, though the Troops and Weapons that create them, will continue to function.
During this Campaign, players can earn Stars to level this Campaign’s Artifact – Crown of the Decaying Queen. Each new level will expand the story of the Campaign and also give Skill Point bonuses to all battles (including PvP and Guild Wars). (These bonuses will only apply during the Campaign and are lost when the Campaign ends).
We have a sneak peek at a few of the rewards that will be available from the Elite Pass reward track. When the campaign ends, players can still earn unique rewards in the following ways:
- The Decaying Queen – He will start appearing in chests 3-4 weeks after the Campaign ends.
- Libram of Decay – This weapon will be craftable from the Soulforge the next time during their Kingdom’s event after the Campaign ends.
- Portraits, Emojis and Titles – Like Social Collectibles from Events, these will become available to purchase from Gems about 3 months after the Campaign ends.
- Weeping Lilium – As this pet is cosmetic, it will only be available during special Pet Rescues after the Campaign ends.
