addedNew Feature! Community Requests : Community Requests are now live! These time-limited challenges invite all Aces to contribute toward a shared goal. Each request includes personal objectives for you to tackle on your own, plus large-scale Belfry-wide milestones. You’ll find Community Requests in the Request Board in the Tower under the new Community tab. The first event, Rakentague Overflow, focuses on Grasslands missions, Beastkin, and Bloodletters … more detail below!
addedWrit Reward Updates: We’ve fine-tuned how Writs are earned across early missions and the Job Board to help smooth out the path for new and returning Aces. More on Writs and in-game economy soon ... for now, here's what you can expect with this update. For rookie Aces just stepping into Towerborne, the early game grind has been lightened to get you moving faster. Several early missions now reward 400 Writs (up from 250) Job Board tasks now scale from 80 to 160 Writs based on difficulty. Requests have also been made more flexible—no need to hunt down one exact Venture anymore; now you can take on any Venture and still make progress. The Bell questline has been refreshed - complete it again to earn extra Writs.
addedCommunity RequestsCommunity Requests are a new feature added to Towerborne in this update. This is a 3 week challenge. Each step unlocks automatically after the step before it is completed. Work together as a Community to complete the new Request to claim rewards!
addedCommunity RequestsCommunity Requests can be found in the Request Board located in the Tower. Tab over to the Community section to see the new additions to the board. Rewards can be claimed at the board (for each step). At the end of the event, you’ll be sent unclaimed rewards automatically via in-game mail.
addedClasses & CombatSimilar to our previous update, there has been a large focus on bug fixes and quality of life improvements in the combat space. The revive co-op experience in particular has received an overhaul which should alleviate frustrating moments. Combat also has received a substantial number of changes that will make things feel better across the board. Some of the changes are subtle but they all add up to make something that feels a lot more consistent.
