More Gifts More Winners

Gifts for Gifting!

The craziest season of EpicDuel gifting continues the most generous players putting insane numbers on the leaderboards! This week EpicDuel will update with balance changes and Silver Secret Package prizes extended for the top 5 gifters each day!*

*Since there tends to be wide swings in daily gifting scores, and the spirit of the season, I've decided to award the Silver Secret Package to anyone with a daily score higher than 15,000. This is a manual process so please be patient.

  

Delay

Sorry about the long delay for the update earlier today. It was meant to only take a few minutes but ended up taking over 2 hours! Why? Was it stuffing all the good, good morsels of code into the servertron? No. It was the fact that when we turned everything back on, nothing worked! It did, kinda. Some screens would fail to load, sometimes login would fail entirely! After trying to track down the problem's source, Titan changed just enough to get us back up and running. This could have been the reason many were seeing more frequent black loading screens and experiencing sluggish performance. Gifting is usually A LOT for Flash to handle, but the game should still be playable. Let us know if performance improved at all!

 

Daily Gift Rewards!

To reward the extraordinary gifting of those trying to climb the daily leaderboards, we've decided to reward the top 5 gifters each day a Silver Secret Package. This will apply retroactively to previous daily leaders!

    • Venom Strike: Required stat changed to Dex instead of Tech to Venom Strike

Stop by the Legendary Chamber in Titan's Peak to check out an updated arsenal for players who've attained the Legendary Rank.

Omega Wolf Shards

You may have noticed some new drops from gifting in the form of Omega Wolf Shards. The description will tell you to seek out the Endless M4tr1x, but where is she? You'd better hand onto those shards for when she finally appears!
