Gladiatus: The War against the Numidians

30/04/2012



Ave Gladiators!

The oases are the lifeblood of the desert, the lifeblood for hunters, merchants, and the legions. Now these lifebloods are falling from our hands and we are losing our dominance over these oases. 

The communication lines have been disrupted, trade is at a standstill and the legions are beginning to thirst. 

To your weapons, warriors of Rome! 

Our supremacy in Africa is under threat, as is the supremacy of our emperor on our beautiful empire. King Juba the First and his people, the Numidians, have risen up and are threatening the security of the empire.

 

The War against the Numidians

is the second event in the world of Gladiatus,

in which your team play will decide over victory or defeat.


The Numidians, led by their King Jubo the first,

are threatening our supremacy in Africa.

Our most important source of supply, the Assuri Oasis, is the target of their attacks.

If we don't succeed to beat them off, the lifes of thousands of legionaries are in great danger!

And of course, also the important trade routes through the oasis would be blocked.

There is only one choice:

To your weapons, fight off the Numidians!

 

 

How does the event work?

As soon as the event has started a new expedition area will appear in your menu, the Assuri Oasis.


Clicking on it shows you the first wave of opponents to beat.

In contrast to normal expeditions the enemies at the Assuri Oasis have a counter, which shows you how often the enemy was beaten by all gladiators on the server. This means that the more active you and your allies are, the quicker you will gain the victory. As soon as all enemies of the first wave are beaten (= the counter reaches e.g. 1000/1000), the next wave is available to attack.

 

At the end there is the leader of the Numidians to beat, one single boss, but with an enormous amount of health points which all gladiators have to beat down fight by fight! 

From the start of the event you have 7 days to beat all enemies including the boss. If you don’t succeed in that time frame, the battle / event was lost.

 

Who can participate?

 All players with level 7 and higher.

 

Which rewards can you get?

For every fight won in the event you receive a temporary buff for your stats.

Of course your overall performance in the event will also be rewarded, but only if the event is finished successfully!

 

If you click on the tab “Highscore” in the Assuri Oasis area, you can see which rewards await you at the end of the event and how you did compared to other gladiators.

The highscore is sorted by points, if you win a fight you receive 2 points, if you lose you only receive 1 point.

 

When does the event start?

On Wednesday, the 2nd of May, the event will start on all servers worldwide (except IR RU SE*).

 

All the best,

Your Gladiatus Team


The new costumes / Chest of divine Fate - User Guide

24/04/2012



Ave Gladiators!

Additionally to the new costumes, an error in the Circus Turma fighting mechanism was fixed in Gladiatus 1.8.0, quite some changes in the premium area have been done and another completely new feature found its way into the game, the "Chest of Divine Fate".

One of these chests per day can be achieved by fighting in the Arenas / Circus Turma (this includes the provinciarum ones) and can be opened in the new "Treasury" at the Pantheon. The possible rewards for the chest are also shown in the Treasury.
If you want to open more than one chest, you can do this by investing rubies.

Why should I open a chest of divine fate?
You cannot only win costumes in the chest, but also 3 completely new rewards we added:
The magical bag ,which grants you an additional bag for 7 days.
The mobilisation, which adds 3 expedition points, and...
The gate key, which adds 3 dungeon points to your account.

The first picture on the right is an image of the Treasury:
(Note: Screenshots are taken on the testserver which runs in German language, the corresponding English terms were added)

On the top part you can see the chest of divine fate, below the possible rewards in the box. If you dislike the possible rewards, you can refresh the content of the chest before opening it until the rewards match your taste!

To be able to offer you even more rewards in the chest and to give you also the possibility to save some rubies, we introduced new currencies for our already existing premium features.

What does that mean?
An example: You can still activate e.g. a blessing directly in the Pacts area for 15 rubies, but from now on you can also buy a "Blessing's Symbol" for the activation. If you buy e.g. 5 of those symbols at once, you can save 5 rubies!
There is a new currency for blessings, seals, honours and secret knowledges each.

If you prefer to shorten the cooldown of expeditions, dungeons and task waiting times, the "Holy hourglasses" are the new currency you should look for! Also here you profit from a quantity discount if you buy the new currencies, but of course you can also still shorten as usual with rubies, it is your choice!

These two and many more currencies can be won in the "Chest of Divine Fate". Since you can achieve one chest per day through Arena / Circus Turma fights, all players have a daily chance to get hands on some premium feature for free!

The second picture on the right is an image of the new look of the premium area and all new currencies, including the "Chest of Divine Fate" and "Fortuna's Die of Destiny" for mixing the content of the chest:
(Note: Screenshots are taken on the testserver which runs in German language, the corresponding English terms were added)

List of new currencies:
  • Chest of Divine Fate - The new chest which can include costumes, the new currencies and the 3 new special rewards (magical bag, mobilisation, gate key).
  • Fortuna's Die of Destiny - Generates new content for the "Chest of Divine Fate".
  • Holy Hourglass - Can be used to shorten expedition / dungeon cooldowns and task waiting time.
  • Work Clothing - Can be used to request new goods at the merchants, to do premium work and to shorten your travelling time.
  • Blessing Symbol - Can be used to activate / increase the duration of a blessing.
  • Seal Coins - Can be used to activate / increase the duration of a seal.
  • Commendation -
  • Can be used to activate / increase the duration of an honour.
  • Secret Formula -
  • Can be used to activate / increase the duration of a secret knowledge.
  • Arena Parchment - Can be used to change your nick.
  • Symbol of Duality - Can be used to change your gender.

To make it easier to keep an overview of your purchased currencies, a new "inventory" was added to the premium section (second tab marked in green on the second image).

Questions and answers:

How do I get a "Chest of divine fate"?
Through battles in the Arena / Circus Turma (this includes the Provinciarum versions) you can achieve one chest per day. By investing rubies you can always buy a chest in the new premium area or directly open a box in the treasury.

Where do I find the Treasury?
It is situated in the Pantheon area under the 4th tab (see 1st image).

How do I get those new costumes?
Costume parts can be dropped on expeditions and dungeons, but can also be won in the Chest of Divine Fate.

How do I get to the costumes overview?
As soon as you found a part of a costume, the button "Change Costume" below your profile avatar gets activated and links to the overview of the 6 costumes. There you can activate / deactivate your costumes.

I bought a new currency, how do I spend it?
If you purchased e.g. hourglasses for cooldown shortening, the prize at e.g. the expeditions will automatically be displayed in the new currency and the costs will also be automatically be taken from your new currency. As soon as you are out of hourglasses, the prize will be displayed in rubies again.

Where can I see my current amount of the new currencies?
To display your amount of new currencies, have a look at the new inventory in the premium area. (see image 2)

How do I activate a costume?
As soon as you found a part of a costume, the button "Change Costume" below your profile avatar gets activated and links to the overview of the 6 costumes. There you can activate / deactivate your costumes by clicking on I (for your main character) or II (for your dungeon character).

Is it possible to find the same part of a costume several times?
No, every part can only be found once.

Can I activate the same costume on both characters at the same time?
No, this isn't possible.

Do costumes have an expiration date?
No, once you found a part of costume it is yours and won't be deleted / removed.

I received a chest of divine fate through fighting and received a new currency as reward, where can I find it?
Your reward can be found in the new inventory in the Premium area. Click on "Premium", then on the second tab "Inventory" to get there.

What happens to the medals we received as a gift from the emperor?
If you have them activated right now or still have it in your inventory, you will also receive a refund.

All the best,
Your Gladiatus Team

Changelog v1.8.0:

General

  • A new area was added in the Pantheon, the treasury.
  • A completely new costume system was added.

Treasury

  • One „chest of divine providence“ per day can be achieved through fights in the different arenas (PvP), by investing rubies you can receive as much as you wish.
  • Chests contain special rewards, such as:

Magical bag: The activation grants an additional bag in your inventory. 

Mobilisation: The activation grants 3 expedition points. 

Gate key: The activation grants 3 dungeon points.

 

Costumes

  A short description on how the costumes work:

  • Every costume has a certain amount of parts to collect.
  • The parts can be found on expeditions, in dungeons and in the „chest of divine providence“.
  • Every costume offers certain bonuses, depending on the amount of parts collected.
  • You can have 2 costumes activated at the same time (Standard fight and dungeon fight)
  • In this way you can combine bonuses of different costumes. Identical bonuses add up. 
  • The equipped costume is shown in the profile and battle reports.

Interface

  • The display of building and area names on the city and country map was slightly adapted.

Arena / CT

  • In the Circus Turma, the behaviour of mercenaries which are set to „direct attention to oneself“ is more defensive now. A mercenary set to „direct attention to oneself“ refuses to attack if 2 other mercenaries (with higher presence) already direct the attention to themselves. 

Premium

  • New currencies were added for many Premium features. As alternative to the payment with rubies, you can also use these specific new currencies. 
  • These currencies can be bought in the new shop in the „Premium“ section, or can be found in the „chest of divine fate“.
  • The 100% healing potion that is given with the activation / extension of the Centurio will no longer be delivered via packages. From now on they are credited directly to your account and can be activated in the new „inventory“ in the premium section. All 100% healing potions that are still in your inventory or packages, will be converted into this new premium item. 

During update process

  • „Medals of honor“ will be removed and invested gold / rubies refunded (gold sent as package / rubies are directly credited to the ruby count).
  • 100% healing potions are converted into the new premium item.

 

All the best,

Your Gladiatus Team
